Did I say I was tired yesterday morning?

Posted by Heather Manning On February - 13 - 2008

I think it’s worse today.  LOL  It’s 7:49 and I’m having trouble getting going.  Jordan’s standing here in a towel.  Pato’s trying to get clothes ready to wash for work that he forgot to do yesterday.  I could climb back into bed.  Can I? 

I talked to my mom about my Uncle Marvin last night and he’s doing better.  Thank God!  I asked her if they knew what had happened and they are not sure what order it happened in.  He either had a seizure which caused him to fall and hit his head or he fell and hit his head which caused him to have a seizure.  She didn’t tell me if he recognized her and Abby or if he was restrained still.  I’m just glad it’s not the same situation as my grandpa that I started to go into yesterday.  It just brought it all back. 

When I called my mom late yesterday afternoon, her and my Aunt were at the casino and my sister was taking a nap at my aunt’s house.  I guess there’s no non-smoking section for her and she’s making a smart choice to stay away from smoke.  She quit smoking the day she found out she was pregnant and it’s been hard for her.  Oh, the whole point of bringing that up was that Uncle Marvin must be doing better if they were having fun without me.  LOL

So, I think Alyce is making more of a turn around with the sickies she’s had.  Which hopefully will stop the I must be touching my mommy at all times thing that’s been going on for over  a week now.  She hasn’t eaten well since I told you guys she was sick.  Last night, wow.  She made up for it.  We had chicken enchiladas.  She had a bowl (not the smallest size of baby bowl, more a medium bowl) full of chicken, rice, and cheese.  Ate the whole thing.  And then threw her bowl at us, I’m assuming meaning she wanted more.  We got her a little more chicken and cheese, ate all of that.  Then she sat there with her little tummy sticking out with her hand supporting her head and just looked like that wore her out.  LOL  I was worried she’d get sick from eating so much at once after not eating, but she was such a happy baby when she got out of her high chair.  So hopefully we’re completely on the mend.  I’m hoping she’s not quite so needy today.  It would be a nice break for me.  LOL

Cate, you caught me!  I’m dusting up my scrapping skills in anticipation for the Amazing DigiScrap Race.  I’m gonna have to keep up with you girl!  I got another layout done yesterday.  I’ve been hunting high and low for challenges to give me some scrapping mojo.  I got another layout done yesterday for Lauraskathi’s challenge.

I used my Old Edges frames again, I love them.  LOL  But everything is by Lauraskathi, her Gabriella kit.

The challenge was more or less to scrap a layout showing your love for something that wasn’t alive.  LOL  So, there’s mine.  Showing my love for my Sarah Jessica Parker chuckies-like shoes.  I love them.  I can’t wear them a lot right now because there is so much snow on the ground and I don’t want them to get any dirtier.  Plus, they are cloth, cold snow melting into cold water makes for cold feet.  LOL  But they are so comfortable.  I’m thinking about going back and getting the other colors.  They are only $8.88 at Steve and Barry’s.  I love love love them!

Man, I remember the days when I used to wear dress shoes and heels all the time.  Then I became a stay at home mom.  LOL  Now I wear cute, funky, and comfy. 

I was cracking up when my CT member Hollie showed me her entry for Kathi’s challenge.  Same subject.  Shoes, you gotta love them.

I gave Pato his Valentine’s Day presents yesterday on his day off because he has to work all day tomorrow.  I got him a ring made out of something they say is stronger than Titanium, but I can’t remember what it was.  I got it in a size 12.  biggest size they had.  He needs at least a 12 1/2 or 13.  I love the ring, and I’m not sure if it can be sized.  When I managed a jewelry store I was always told that we couldn’t size Stainless Steel or Titianium because the metal is too hard.  If I remember correctly we could go up a 1/4 to 1/2 up in size.  If they could take this up 1/2 a size, I’d love them forever.  LOL  I’ll have him take it to a jeweler today and see what they say.  I also got him some sexy lingerie that I think I’m going to have to do a layout on.  ROFL  It seemed like a good idea at the time I bought it and wrapped it, but when he unwrapped it, man, I thought I was going to die.  Now, I’m obviously not going to take a picture of me in it, but I thought I’d take a picture of it by itself.  ROFL

    I love your sneaker layout! I might have to make DH taking me shopping this weekend so I can get a pair.
    I’m so glad your daughter (and uncle) are both feeling better!

  2. carjazi says:

    Glad to hear that your uncle is doing better. Sorry you mom & aunt had fun without you. hehe
    Hoping that Alyce is indeed on the mend and you can get yourself better too. Great layout. I’m back to being blocked again. oh well. We’ll see what happens when Shannon leaves for vacation.
    Have a great day!

  3. Tammy says:

    I use to wear nice shoes to work too, but not its usually just flip flops. Good shoes hurt my feet. I had no idea you were working with Hollie in the race. She is a great gal. Love the shoe layout.

  4. I am so glad the sickies are on the way out!! I can totally relate to how stressful it is with your little one not quite themselves! I am so sorry about your uncle too. I will keep you guys in our thoughts. I am SO excited about the adr. Its def my first one! Hope you get soem well deserved rest soon!! I am exhausted reading your blog LOL

  5. Andrea says:

    You so funny! If I gave my husband some lingerie, um, A) I wouldn’t because I hate my lumpen form these days ever since I had 2 babies in 2 years in my late 30′s.. ahem. But if I did, I think he’d lose his mind (and more) right on the spot! Poor man.. LOL I asked him what he wanted to do for Valentine’s Day, and guess what he said-
    I think you can guess!
    I am jealous, I want some Cool SJP shoes! But they don’t sell them around here.
    Okay bye!

  6. Barb says:

    Great post today, Heather! I’mdoing the ADSR too, so I’ll see you there! Have a great day.

  7. Kerry says:

    TUNGSTON….that should be what the ring was made of. Dh and I have wedding bands from it too. It is was they use to make industrial drill bits.

    Love…Love your layouts. Besides a girl can never have too many shoes.

  8. Jaime says:

    I have a favorite pair of shoes that I’ve had for years…in fact I’ve actually bought the same ones a couple of times and I was down to my last pair and our dog ate the cushions out of them the other day. It wouldn’t be so terrible except that they finally stopped making this design. I miss my shoes. :(

    Glad to hear Alyce is feeling better and hope you get some time to yourself today. Maybe you can get this sexy layout done, without you in it of course, lol! :)

  9. beth says:

    i love those shoes i have some tooooooo! the best! Katherine got a kick out of your comments on my blog yesterday and says she’d love to see you comment at her blog!

  10. beth says:

    hah! i just saw she told you herself.

  11. Robin L says:

    What a great lo! Im glad Im not in that contest lol I sure hope your little one feels better today.

  12. Kari says:

    Oh wow. Go back to bed. Snuggle the girls in for the long haul. I would so love to go back to bed myself. Nick was snoring so bad last night I went & got on the couch. Nothing I did got him to quit, all the nuding, the kicking, the waking up making him roll over, nothing. I’m surprised you didn’t hear him!
    Gotta get in the shower, got running around to do before Aden & Ansley get here.

  13. Monique says:

    Beautiful layout Heather! Good luck with the Race!

    And I’m glad to hear the little one’s not so sick anymore. It’s so hard on us moms to see our little ones like that :( It’s also nice to hear that your uncle’s doing better. I hope he makes a full recovery.

    Have a great day Heather! And don’t forget my Challenge 411 posts (you can see a list under the Series Index link on my header), you might find some more challenges there to help get the mojo going!

  14. Kristine says:

    Hiya sweety!!! Glad Alyce is on the mend!!!!

    Mwah!

  15. Kelly says:

    Girl, how do you find the time! Hope your DD is back on the healthy track, your Uncle is doing better and they can size the ring for your DH!

    Have a great day!

  16. Crystal says:

    So glad Alyce has her appetite back and that your uncle seems better. Hope you are feeling a bit better now (you said you were sick yesterday). Sounds like your dh got a nice present, hopefully he will return the favour and get you something wonderful as well. Hugs Crystal xxx
