drats!, updatage, apologies & resolutions
Hello, ya'll! I just wanted to pop on here real quick and say a few things while Case is working on his math....
Um, for updates... I ended up back at the chiro yesterday. Neck was out again. No more insurance coverage, so this alignment cost me $40. I guess we'll stay inline or we'll just have to be a crooked ol' gal. *sigh* No way I can afford that kinda money! NO WAY!!
Casey and I have started "school", which means we're using BOOKS! ;) So far, so good. He seems to be very determined and is working diligently. But we've had several good long talks. He feels I'm not as available to help him when I'm online, so... for more reasons than one (neck! Case!) I'm not going to be online as much!
Um, oh yeah... Case has been conversing with a girl! on the phone of late. He met her through his pal when they went to the movies last time. He talks more on that phone than he has in all his life to any guy pals he's had. It's mostly about games or school or a movie... mostly games because most of the time he's talking, he's playing some driving game with tires squawling. *sigh* I dunno. It all seeeeems pretty platonic. I only "met" the girl the one time. She's 13 too and seemed nice enough, but ... I know nothing about her. *argh!* I'm not ready to go through this unknown-public-schooled-girl-friend thing again!!!!
Okay... in other news... Tommy's ear still bothers him. He's mad at the world, with an emphasis on doctors, and feels they're all stupid, etc., etc. I don't much care for this ear doc either and frankly, I don't think we'll go back to him. But he did prescribe Tommy some Cl@r!tin for the pressure in his ear. He had some sinus meds prescribed before... way before, but he never took them like he was supposed to. Somehow Tommy feels that if you take medicines you're weak and inferior.
Yeah. Isn't that nice? He jumps ALL OVER me for not taking MINE, WeakInferiorness that I am, but let me tell him there's something HE needs to take for HIS HEALTH?!?!?! And he's ALL up in arms. GAH!!!! (and we wonders why we're stressed, Precious?!?!??!)
Um, awrighty...moving along... in the world of automania... Corey is getting nearer to having his car ready to paint. He's still working his hiney off towards that end. Papaw Tom, my FIL, came back to work this past Monday but is having to take it slowly so Corey's working hard as ever. He recently had to take up some wage issues with Pap, my father, his employer. (what a stressful, tangled envirofam we have here?!?!??!?!!!!!) Long, complicated story, but making it short, even though my dad's business (and personal business, too!) is currently suffering from a major cash shortage, and I mean major, Dad did give Corey a much deserved raise. PTL!! I just hope that Corey will realize the stretch it was for Dad to give it. My life is WAY too full of this kinda of tug-of-war stress stuff. Waaaay too full. Sometimes I can push it aside.... sometimes I can't.
So... aside from that, Dad, with my mom's insistance I'm sure!, has made a deadline for Corey's "serious" schooling to begin. At the end of this month, says Daddy, Corey's going to three days a week. Well, Lord willing and business don't boom. *heh* Sometimes the phone rings off the hook with jobs and there's just no keeping up... he has to turn people away even with all the help he can get. *sigh* Anyhow... like I said, Lord willing... Corey will be able to crack down on finishing his schooling up at the beginning of September.
In true Bill O'R3ill3y style... or an unreasonable facsimilie... here's the last word or whatever it is he calls all that babble he does at the end of his shows....
I have become aware that some thing or things in my posts of late may have offended some of my readers. Now, I don't know this for a certainty... but upon deeper contemplation, I can see how things may have been taken disagreeably. Putting myself in another's place, I see how I may have felt, perhaps not offended, but at the very least, confused. I just want to make very clear that nothing I posted was meant to insult, offend or otherwise and I apologize if it came off that way. If you would like to discuss anything futher, please email me. If not, I will assume everything is 'kosher' between us. If this were a folded note passed between the aisle in class, I'd have included one of those "CHECK YES [] or NO []" lines...but I'm not savvy enough to put a the html equivilent on here, so... um, it'll have to be an email or a comment. Sorry. *shrug*
Now, in honor of my new resolution to spend less time on the computer... I'm outtie! I'll try to hop on in short spurts to make some visits as I can... be patient with me!
~hugs all around!!~ and have a blessed day!
