Cleaning and even more cleaning

With Logan staying home yeturday because of the ear infections, I really didn't get to do what I wanted to. I wanted to start taken down my Christmas stuff and get the spare bedroom together. I can't seem to part with my tree for some reason this year. The only room I can say for now is 100% clean is the kitchen. His room is a MESS! His room is huge, 15 by 20. It's the whole front of the house and the biggest room in the house. And yes, some of it's mine. I do have my computer desk in there for him to use for homeworkd on the PC/laptop. He has basically claimed the flat screen TV so that's in there also. But on his side of the room, all you see is army men, legos, tanks, trucks, and more army stuff such as buildings, etc. I couldn't even walk to make his bed! LOL So today is clean up what I can so tomorrow I can get into his closet to put away his Christmas stuff that is still under the tree.

His got a pretty good deal of stuff this year, but nothing like he would have if I was still working. The things he got the most use out of so far is his lego's and of course his XBox. He spent 3 days on the XBox! LOL I like it, he can get on there and play other people. So far he has 2 friends, 1 is his cousin on his dad side. He's into this one game called Battlefield where you wear a headset to talk to other people. Well, he's the scout and is telling people where to go. So at any given time you can walk into my house and hear him yelling, "ALL TANKS REPORT TO THE (PLACE)!" LOL It's so funny! I'm going to try to vidoe tape it so everyone can see!

Logan has one of his bestfriends birthday parties this Saturday. They are taking the kids to Chuck E Cheese in Bel Air. And I'm so nervous. His friend has been out with us now and this is Logan's first time going with them. I really don't know them so it's hard for me to say yes. plus, Logan was there when they asked and he was all excited how could I have said no. And the boy is one of his bestfriends! But I guess I need to start someplace. I just hope they are not out too late.

While Logan's at his friends party Brigitte & her boyfriend are coming up and we are going to play 500 Rummy! And order some pizza! Can't wait! Other then that, thats all thats going on this week pretty much!

PS I heard they are calling for some snow this weekend. Ahhh...

It's Benn Awhile...

5 months to be exact! WOW! I don't think I even know where to start. And most would be me ranting so I'm not gonna try! LOL! Christmas was OK. Low key, but just didn't feel like the holidays. I swear I have the worlds worst family. I talk to my mom, but other then that no one calls me. My grandmother has always treated me different, then why my cousin had her baby I seen how she was with Logan, just like she was with me so I haven't talked to her on a regular basis in like 5 years. Then my aunt and uncle are God sent, they do nothing wrong yet both have. My aunt, well she's just trash, my uncle never did right by my grandparents. And then of course the sperm donor hasn't had nothing to do with me since birth and neither has his family. I talk to my one Aunt on his side, but I really think I have talked to her more then my sperm donor. Yes, I have a issue calling him a father since clearly he's never been one! LOL Then I think about Logan and him not having no family as he grows up and it kinda makes me sad. I mean after Bill and I are gone, honestly he will have no one. And I had a older friend at my old work who I got the talking to about that and seen how upset she was about it. Makes ya really think and put things into perspective. Aside from my real family, my bestfreind is really like my sister. And my second bestfriend I have know her and her family since high school and I always feel right at home with them. I have seen both of their families more then I have my own! Hell, I don't even get invited when they do have family gatherings! LOL But ok, I'm ranting...So next year, I'm staying home, having a open house. If people come good, but if they don't, that's fine with me too. That way we can invite our close friends too!

Logan's doing OK in school. Having issue's with spelling but other then that, it's good. He's in chess, band, chorus, and the K Kids. He just loves school. Hope it stays that way once he goes tot he middle school next year. How scary. FOR ME! LOL

Talking about Logan, he's currently home. Sick with double ear infections. The ones is really bad the doctor said. And last night was so bad. The worse since he was like 4 years old. So they gave him pain medicine also. So I'm keeping him home tomorrow also just to be on the safe side.

NASCAR comes back on next month. I so can't wait to have something to look forward to each week. I'm so wanting to have a Daytona Party but wouldn't know who to invite since no one I know likes NASCAR! Sigh, wish my friend April from online lived closer! I think we would have a good time :)

As for me, I'm doing good. Off all my meds and as of October I'm cancer free! I'm feeling a little better but still don't have my energy back that I used to have. And really hope it comes back soon.

I have taken some cute pictures over the last month that I wanted to share. Some of Logan of course. We had a big snow storm so I got a couple cute ones of him near the old train station in the snow! Then some of my friend's lil girl who is just totally adorable!
