Blahness...

So, I'm having one of those months where it just feels like I'm just going through the motions in life. It's like everything is in slow motion and I cannot get ahead to save my self. I don't know how to put things into words, but I just feel blah. Lately, I find that I'm just not as happy as I used to be. I don't want to go into drastic detail or anything, but I feel lonely. I'm just aggravated, depressed, sad, frustrated, angry, lonely, bitter, resentful...all in one. How do I get myself out of such a funk??

It's Been A While...

So, I have pretty much picked up my cousin, Rachel's habits and have become a bad blogger. That's life I guess...hehe. So much has been going on, it's crazy! Work has been pretty hectic...which I take as a good thing! They have been keeping me so crazy busy I honestly don't know how I've managed to stay alive! The fun part is I've made a friend at work who loves Braves' baseball as much as me! It's so cool to have someone to talk to about the games. We even do this thing where we "predict" what is going to happen each series before the games are actually played. It's interesting to see how close we come to having things actually happen. Like one series, I predicted that Kelly Johnson would hit two homers. Well, if you're following the Braves, you know Kelly has been benched. It just so happened that this particular series, Prado was hurt, so Kelly played and Kelly hit two homeruns that basically changed both games! My friend was pretty impressed with me. But he calls some pretty good shots too. We should have kept points to see who comes closer at the end of the season...

As for me, I've been good. Josh is getting over the shingles. It sucks. He took a trip to California with a friend last month. I'll have to post some pics on here...he got some very beautiful scenery pics. Family is good...house is good...work is good...I am good...but tired. Off to bed I go...

Maw Maw

What a week! I got a horrible call last week from my mother saying that my grandmother was in ICU with pneumonia. I was in tears as she told me about how they rushed her in almost losing her once. I drove in to New Iberia on Sunday to go see her. She may not have looked her best...but who can with tubes running all over the place, but she sure was in great spirits. Her face lit up when she realized I was there and that made me so happy to be there. My grandfather just wanted to get to her to hold her hand. He even pushed my sister out of the way to get to her! It was heartbreaking. Margo and I were fighting back tears as we watched them look at each other. Fortunately, Maw Maw took a turn for the better and got out of ICU. I went see her Friday nite and she looked so much better. She lost a lot of the fluid she had retained and looked like my Maw Maw again. It hurts me to think about now how little I see her in my busy crazy life. She was like a second mom to me when I was little and my mom had to have surgery right after I was born. I guess there's a connection between us that no one else shares. At least I like to think so. We all have our connections, and that ones mine. I wish now I would have stopped in more to visit. It hurts that it took her to get into the hospital to just stop and even say hello to my grandfather on the way back from a friend's house. We had went eat with some friends in New Iberia and even though it was late, I still made Josh stop since the lights were on. I went to check on Pa Pa to see if he needed anything before bed. He said he was fine and Travis, my cousin, was going stay over. I love my grandparents so very dearly. We take for granted that they will always be there.

Today I found out one of my good friend's from high school's dad passed away. I was good friends with the family, so I knew Mr. Herman fairly well. My heart goes out to William in his time of grief. I'm sorry this blog is kind of sad, but it's been that kind of week. As sad as I am for Mr. Herman, I'm very grateful my grandmother is doing better. I hope she comes home soon. And I will make better efforts to visit more often.

Yes, I'm Alive

Ok, so it's been a while. My motherboard crashed on my computer, so I was without one for about a month. Then when we received the new one, for some reason it would not let me log onto this thing! Finally, tonite I was able to log in after struggling to reset the stupid password. Ugh. What a nite. But, in case anyone was worried, I'm alive and kicking! Things have been pretty hectic here too. Work is keeping me extremely busy and for that I am eternally grateful! I'm very lucky to have a job in this sluggish economy! I promise when I have time, I will post pics to catch everyone up! My friends and I had a Twilight party last nite. It was a blast! We decorated in red white and black and silver for the theme. Had the apples and the candles and blood. Hehe. We started the movie at the exact time of twilight for us so it was pretty cool. Baseball is almost under way! I'm super excited! I've been watching the USA play in the World Baseball Classics. Chipper and Brian made the team. Unfortunately, Chip got hurt so he went back home, but I am rather proud of Brian. We got knocked out tonite in the semi finals, but at least we fought. Now it's just to get ready for April 6th!! So, short update on me. I'll post later to catch you up on everything!
