Day 297~January 7th, 2011~
Today, the stress of everything last night had carried to this morning. When it was time to wake the kids up, I wasn't feeling good at all, even to tell the kids to get up. I know it was from the stress. The kids ended up staying home today, because for the first time EVER, I was to sick to get them off to school.
I woke up around 9 something, to young man bringing me breakfast in bed, since he knew I was sick. At that time I was feeling okay, thinking about eating and then getting them to school. I took a couple bites of my cereal to be nice, and that was a mistake. Since I hadn't ate much the day before, from all my stress, it didn't like my stomach. So, I ended up resting some more.
Finally, when I did wake up, I felt a lot better. Last night I just couldn't believe how much my stomach hurt from the stress, it was just crazy. Since, I was all better, and I knew it was from the stress of the situation and person, I kept my Spring Catalog Willow House Launch Party.
I had to clean up my house first. Then go to the car and grab all of my Willow House stuff to set up in my house. And get all of the food together, such as cupcakes, carrots and ranch, and cheese quesdillas, with juice. My friend/sister brought some of her oh so tasty turkey dip, mmmm... I love it!
I had my friend/sister come, and then a couple other ladies come to my launch party. Some others were going to come, but weren't able to make it for various reasons, but let me know why. Ugh, for some reason I'm tired, so I need to hit the hay.
Thinking, missing, and loving my husband, knowing that each day that goes by is another day closer to seeing him.
My husband and I
One of the 4 hardest time's of my life...

Nothing worse then stress, stress, stress.......
Day 296~January 6th, 2011
I started the morning off waking up late, I wasn't feeling the greatest during the night. So, I figured I would just take the kids to school after they ate their breakfast. Well, the time I woke them up, they still should have made it to school, on time! But, since the kids were slow going and such, they were all a half an hour late to school.
First, I dropped the older two off at school. Then I took little man, and had to walk him all the way to his class. He was ready to say goodbye to me in the parking lot. He wanted his backpack on, and then wanted to give me a kiss and leave. Sorry, little one, I cannot leave a 3 year old alone in the parking lot. When I got to his classroom, his teacher was excited to tell me that he met 2 of his 4 IEP goals. Which is just goals for his education that have been given to him. He knows how to match shapes. His teacher said that he really wanted to play, and she told him he needed to do his work first. So, then what did he do, MATCHED all of the shapes fast. And then was able to go play. So proud of my little one. But, after winter break, she just double checked to make sure it wasn't just a one time thing that just happened. And, he did it again. He knows how to match the shapes. I don't remember what the other IEP goal was he did. I had to leave because I had a meeting.
I still had to run hom and change my clothes, and grab some papers for my meeting. I was meeting with some ladies that were interested in learning about becoming a consultant for either Arbonne, or Willow House. We talked for a bit, and my Arbonne upline also came and talked to them some about Arbonne. Then I ran to get my some coffee at my favorite coffee stand on the way home.
Once I got home I wasn't feeling the greatest. I took a nap after little man got off the bus. Which he was 3-5 minutes late, and they called me and let me know. I woke up in time for the older two to get home from school, but wasn't feeling well enough to walk to the bus stop, so I sat by the front door so that I could see them.
When they were home it was time for little lady to get ready for her last strength and flexibility class, and then Cheerleading right after that. I had taken stuff to make peanut butter and honey in the car.
Tonight ended a stressful situation tonight with someone, glad it is done and over with. And frustrated I had to deal with it via facebook while my daughter was doing her cheerleading practice. So, I didn't really get to watch her practice. But, it's done, and I'm just glad that I don't have to have anything to do with them anymore.
But, throughout the night, my stomach continued to get worse, and I had experienced so much pain in my stomach, so much at one point I felt I should have gone to the ER, but didn't. Even when I moved sometimes, lets just say, I got sick. And I'm pretty sure it was from the stress of the situation and the person. I ended my night 3 hours on the bathroom floor, in so much pain. During this time little man woke up in the middle of the night for I don't know what reason. It took all of my energy just to get up and open the door for him, and make it to my bed. And finally, I was able to sleep for the rest of the night.
Loving, missing and thinking of my handsome husband tonight, wishing he was here with us.

Back to our normal schedule...
Day 295~January 5th, 2010~
Today all three kids were back to the normal schedule, in school. And I went back to my normal schedule, at least for today. Back to the gym. I worked out with my friend/sister. I don't even remember how long we worked out, but it was the best workout that I had in awhile.
Then of course, what did we do after, went to the store. To stock up on Junk Food, of course! No, not really, I was only teasing! I went to get my normal food I need for 2 weeks, but since it is the 5th, it's what I need for 10 days. Which wasn't to bad. It was fun shopping with my friend/sister.
Then we went our separate ways. When I got in my car from the commissary, I got a call from the place we rent from, mind you I paid 2 days ago. They waited 2 days to tell me an airhead, umm, wait that is me (of course they didn't call me an airhead, I'm calling myself that) wrote 1-11-11 on the check. Umm, yeah, that doesn't work. So then I had to take the drive, I love (really hate) to do once a month, twice! I had to drive all the way down to change the date on a check that took like 5 seconds. It was crazy.
On the way up, to change that, we drove by the Nissan Dealership, little man saw a Nissan Titan Truck when he passed by, he said, "I like that truck," I said, "Oh, you like that truck", he response, as if he was saying it in a duh tone, "I like Monster trucks." It was just cute. Then he saw two truck the same kind, and told me, "Two trucks mom!" And we were going down a hill, and he told me, "Down!" He was just making me laugh being so cute! Then he was telling me he wanted to home and such, and I was telling him we were on our way.
When we got home, I talked to my mom for a few minutes. Then we got back into the car, to get the older two from the bus. I have a meeting somewhere in the morning, and I needed to go find out exactly where it is, so that I can tell my Arbonne Upline, who is going to meet me also at the same spot. Then I ran to the bank.
My plans after the bank was to go the Nissan Dealership and check out a car Josh has been telling me about. I thought he sent me a facebook message about it. So I went, pulled up in the lot, and was checking my phone to see. Instead, it must have been over facebook chat, so we left instead. And came home to eat dinner.
Now it's time to head to bed, I have lots to do again tomorrow. I need my beauty sleep, and lots of that. Maybe it will help??? Hmm!!! Loving, missing and thinking of my handsome husband, knowing that every day I fall asleep, and the next day I wake up, it is another day closer to being together again!

Day 294~January 4th, 2010~
Today was the first day back for the kids from winter break. Well, I thought all three were going back to school. Until when little man and I got back from the bus stop for the older, two, and we waited by the front door for his bus. A few minutes later, I realized that the bus wasn't coming. So, no preschool for little man.
I hadn't had much sleep that night. It first started off with little lady getting up crying, for who knows what reason. So, I had her come to bed with me. About an hour later, little man woke up crying, again, not sure why, and I was also to tired to figure out something again with no obvious reason. So, he came to bed with me. Not only did it take me forever to fall asleep the beginning of the night, but each time I was woke up again, I had trouble falling asleep. So, I pretty much didn't get any sleep, and was planning on that time when little man was in school to take a nap.
Well, since he didn't have preschool anyways, I felt really tired, and couldn't stay awake. So, I turned on some cartoons and rested my eyes. Pretty much he was bugging me about me about something the entire time.
When I woke up I had to make a phone call, after eating my one meal for the day, lunch. I was making my first Arbonne order, and my Upline was helping me over the phone. I had also become an official Arbonne Consultant, instead of the preferred client. So, when I sale things now it is a 35 percent income I make from what I sale instead of 20 percent. Which will be really nice once my business picks up.
Then I had to make dinner. Little lady had a cheer leading parent meeting that we had to be at, so we needed to make dinner before we went to that. She got her uniform, and a practice shirt at the meeting, and was told the two days a week she would have practice. This will be interesting.
Then we came home, and the kids went to bed. They were already starting to fall asleep in the car, so they just got ready for bed as soon as they came home.

Digging out of the snow.....
Day 293~January 3rd, 2010~
I had things that absolutely had to be done. And I was headed out to get the things done 3 days prior, when the snow first started. So, I had no choice, but to go to my driveway and dig myself out. I'm not one that likes the cold, really at all. So, that is why it wasn't done before. But, thankfully, it wasn't that bad when I had to get the snow off the driveway. First, I shoveled it all and put it on the side. Then I was lazy, and I followed from my tires on each side, down the driveway with salt, just where I knew where the car would be pulling out.
Then we were off to pay the rent when I was done digging out. When we were done with our half hour trip out to pay rent, then we went to the upline's house for Arbonne. I had a meeting with her. Yes, I had all 3 kids, because they were still on winter break for the last day anyways. They all took toys, and movies to play with while I had my meeting. Since my upline doesn't have any kids. They were a little wild when I was having my meeting. She was discussing some important things I needed to know about Arbonne. When the meeting was over, we went home.
I was planning on going to the Commissary, but I had changed my mind on that one, as soon as I knew how the kids were acting. Instead, we went home, had dinner, and did our nightly activities before everyone went to bed.
Keeping busy makes each and every day go by, so that I'm another day closer to being reunited with my wonderful husband!

Arbonne Taste Testing Party, Snowed in Day 3~
Day 292~January 2nd, 2011~
Well, we missed Church. We woke up to late. But, I already knew, we probably wouldn't go. I knew that at least our court wasn't the greatest, and my SUV isn't made for the snow. So, my best bet was staying home.
I had forgot to mention, on New Years Day, we took down all of our Christmas stuff, and that night I took the tree outside. So, on the 2nd, I finally cleaned up all of the needles from the trail I left behind, when I took the tree outside. After taking all the stuff down on New Years, I was to tired to do the cleaning up part of the needles, haha.
But, that was a mistake. I was having an Arbonne taste testing part that night. And I had other worries besides cleaning up needles, which of course, with 3 kids, made it everywhere around one floor of my house. That was fun, getting those cleaned up. Then I cleaned up the rest of the house. And since, I wasn't able to get out of the house for being snowed in, I had to find foods that I already had to use for my Arbonne taste testing party. Even though it was to be healthy, all I had was brownies, and cupcakes. I was embarrassed, but that was all I had, so I made those. Then I had some carrots and ranch dressing. And thankfully some crystal light, and I called it good.
We got everything ready for the Arbonne Taste Testing Party, and my friend/sister first showed up. After she showed up, then our consultant, my upline for Arbonne came. She set up, and started her presentation about protein shakes, and energy drinks, and things to become a healthy person. Also, some stuff to detox your body. After awhile, I had another friend show up with her twin daughters, and we all listened to the presentation. Arbonne has some great product if you want to become a healthier person, or loose weight.
Then my friends left the house. When our Consultant left, she was backing up to turn around, and her car got stuck. My first friend/sister who came, and I had to help push her car, and then she left.
Once everyone left, it was time to eat dinner. The kids and I watched some television, and we went to bed, yet another day done, and another day closer to seeing my handsome husband. I cannot wait until I see him again.

New Years Day~Happy New Year! Snowed in Day 2....
Day 291~January 1st, 2011~Happy New Year!
The 3 kids and I stayed up until midnight. We watched another movie, Charlie St. Cloud, which, I probably could have gone with out watching it. Kind of weird. Towards the end of the movie we paused the movie because it was close to midnight. The kids and I went close to the door with our sparkling cider, and once midnight hit, we yelled, "Happy New Year" out our front door. The neighbors across the street were lighting fireworks. So, since it was below freezing cold, in the negative temperatures, we went up to my room, opened the blinds, and watched all of the fireworks. After they were over, we went back downstairs and finished our movie. Once the movie was over, all 4 of us fell asleep on the couch.
We were all up at 9 something for the day. We ate breakfast, and then did our usual thing, clean the house. The kids spent their time cleaning, and well I cleaned the house. I did the laundry, cleaned the kitchen, and other things around the house. We were snowed in, and I always have things to clean, so that is how I stayed busy.
Once the kids were in bed, I watched another movie, Easy A. I had heard from a couple people that this was a good movie. Well, I didn't much care for this movie either. It was another movie I wished I didn't waste my time with. After the movie was over, it was bedtime. Time to get some good shut eye, and get ready to start a brand new day, the next day.
I love and miss my handsome husband tons! At least, as of now, I can say, "I will see my handsome husband, THIS year!" And boy, does that feel so amazing to say!
