I went to get my annual exam yesterday, when they checked my blood pressure…it was sky high to say the least (177/100). I talked to my doctor about how I could lower it but in the end they ended up sending me to the emergency room. When I got there my blood pressure was 182/111 once they got me back to triage it was 186/122. I had my first CT scan and EKG. Those were interesting to say the least. But needless to say, the ER docotr could not find anything wrong with me, prescribed me some blood pressure meds, and sent me home. I took my blood pressure today at CVS it was 165/108. My husband has me counting my sodium intake and I guess I am on sugar restriction. My husband looked pissed earlier when I tried to eat a brownie. Now I am resting. I am now going to get something to eat before I have a headache, which will mean that i will have to go back to the ER. (not good)

It’s Friday…I am currently at Panera Bread waiting for someone to arrive at 2p. I have 5 minutes to talk to them before I rush down the street to take my annual exam. Wow. Afterwards, I have to figure out a way to end the spring break madness…. running out of ideas and I guess the grannies have run out ideas as well because they have encouraged me to spend more time with them. Last night, while tyring to see why Otis was crying I fell. I remember getting out the bed and Otis picking me up off the floor and waking up this morning feeling like someone had popped me a good one. Well, I better end this or I am going to be late.

Okay, So maybe I was a little premature in saying that I was going to stop blogging and delete my blog. People do read it….I probably should have looked at my stats before I got up set but oh, well. Today, I would like to reflect and take the time to say what I am grateful for:
1. My Husband. We had to hash somethings out last night….and when I woke up he was there…at 12p, 1a,3a, and 5a…he had to leave to go to work though. When I called him he stated that he was coming home. Thank you Jesus.
2. Food. There are plenty who don’t have it. I have some at home so I am thankful….even if all Gabrielle wants to eat is “Marsh-melons”.
3. Common Sense. Cuz, not everyone has it.
4. Kids. even though they are with the babysitter, it’s this time that causes me to reflect and realize beautiful they are.
5 . New Episodes of my favorite shows!! Thank Ya Jesus!
6. A babysitter. I love my children but sometimes they get on my nerves. Thank you Jesus for a baby sitter.
7. McDonald’s Sweet Tea…
8. Boston Stoker Coffee
Okay, So just a recap I am gratful for family and stuff, and that Jesus still lives……Plus, I am not going to delete my blog.

I once again failed to potty train Gabrielle. (I am just going to leave that comment there)
I have watch Jo-Jo fall off of numerous pieces of furniture and scoot off the car seat and cry, yet when Gabrielle or Otis decide that they are going to lay/sit their big behinds on his back he’s laughing. I am crying cause I am so mortified at the sight and terrified at how (if something happened) I would explain it to them with someone seeing me unfit.
Kiddie Spring Break 2008 has been fun yet extremely tiring. It has definitely tried me as a parent.
I thought about deleting my blog….Still thinking about it….cuz, no one is reading it but me. I read four other blogs from mothers just like me and mine aren’t remotely as profound or descriptive. Matter-of-fact, I started a home group called Moms R’ Us and I use this blog to kinda let them know what we are doing. Do you know that 3/4 of my group is not even internet savvy and do not use the internet on a daily basis. They are not members of Myspace, Facebook, Black planet, twitter or any of those programs. The most any of them do is check their email like once a month…..maybe. I do mean maybe.
Okay so for the one person who reads my blog, thanks for being loyal…Goodbye, I quit….If you start blogging let me know and I will read yours.
Bye.

I must be smoking cause it’s 12:10am, i am awake and watching Making the band 4, procrastinating about going into the kitchen to clean up the dinner mess. I have actually contemplated watching Ultimate recipe showdown after making the band….
hmmm….I could probably win on Ultimate recipe showdown….but all my recipes come from allrecipes, kraft foods, or cooks.com….Plus, they are killing this lady’s recipe for chicken tenders.
Oh…I missed CSI: Miami today, watching Wisegal on Lifetime….I had a lifetime addiction when we first got cable and I have tried to make it a point not to get sucked back in…
wait…when did the guy from double dare start hosting shows on the food network…and why am I just noticing this tonight?
Easter is Sunday…finally figured out what we were going to eat but now have to figure out when I am going to have time to get to the store.
Well guess I better get off and attempt to start the dishes…

I am tired, so this post is going to be fairly short…
I woke up to swollen tonsils on Saturday during the “blizzard”. Spent most of Saturday and Sunday sleeping, chasing kids…Went to crazy doctor Monday, got second opinion on Tuesday (pin) the second opinion told me not only do I have tonsilitis, I also have bronchitis…so you know I am going to find a new doctor. Wednesday, I am going to REST…dropped off kids…just going to let medicine work. Okay, tired close to cough syrup time.
