Pictures of Jackson and Cate can be seen Here

Thursday I got to take Cate along with Jackson to get their picture taken at Target. They were so adorable. The pictures are going to be so darling. I really had fun with both kids. Jackson is such a big help and little Cate is such a good girl. She’s so pretty and she knows it! I went to pick her up and I curled her hair with the curling iron and she was so adorable. Of course it was raining so I had to curl it again when we got there but she was so good, as long as Grandma was making her pretty, she didn’t care how long it took!!! She says “I look like Jasmine” (From Aladin)The pictures will be here on the 27 and I’m going to make a page just for both of them. Well, Jackson starts school tomorrow. I’ll probably cry all the way home. I’ve had him here so long, I hate sending him but we’ll get used to it. 5th grade???? *sigh*

I’ve been working on a website for our neighborhood association. I finally finished it and I’m pretty satisfied with it. The association seems to be very happy with it. Indian Mound Neighborhood Association

I’d also love to yell a shout out to my friend Lisa at Channel 9, she’s so sweet to me. Thank you Lisa. She’s the best weather person in the world. At least I think so. Everyone need to watch her. She’s on weekend mornings on Channel 9 from 5-6am then 7-9am.

Everyone is ok at my place. I’ve not been feeling real good but I’m working that out so I’ll say we’re all ok. Jackson’s ok now. He got hit pretty hard during class the other day. This kid hit him with 3 illegal strikes, groin, abdomen and face punch. That’s illegal and he really was hurting so we stayed home for a night. He’s back to normal now and I’m going to talk to the instructor regarding the situation at the next sparring class. NO BLOWS BELOW THE BELT and NO PUNCHING THE FACE!!!!!. YOu dont want to piss off this mother. Sorry…I get heated where my boy is concerned. You know…Jackson could beat the crap out of that kid if he wanted to but that’s not the “black belt” way. I’m proud of him for keeping calm and just coming to me.

Lets see…school starts the 18. I’m not looking forward to it. This break has gone by way too fast. I love having him here with me and a 5th grader? What happened to my Kindergardener? It was only yesterday he was all dressed up for Kindergarden. *sniff*. I go through this every year. I guess I’m lucky he’s not a freshman yet. 5th grade is still pretty little when you think of the big picture. He’s still a little boy. But he has an old soul. Especially when it comes to the music he likes…he loves late 60’s Motown music. Gladys Knight an the Pips…Midnight Train to Georgia. He likes Queen. He likes Abba. No Hip Hop. (THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!) That’s what I mean, Old Soul. He’s wise. Right now he’s on the trail of Big Foot and Loch Ness Monster. He’s reading all about them and swears them to be true….I just smile and nod my head. Next week it will be a warewolf. *sigh*. I wish he would stick with Tornado’s.

Current Mood: coffee time

The biopsy was benign. They called me early this morning. So that’s one thing off my mind. My deposition is tomorrow so if I can get THAT off my mind I’ll be fine.

Tuesday I go in for a mammogram and ultrasound. I have a mass that goes from my left breast, up under my arm and around the side of my ribs. I dont know what it is but what ever it is I will deal with it like I deal with everything else. Head on. I know some think I can’t deal with anything but they don’t know me. They forget what I’ve been through or they have selected memory. But I’ll be fine. I live for Jackson now. He’s my inspiration and I’ll get through anything because he needs me. Him and Brent are my family…oh and Christ. He’s the head of my family. More to come when I find out. Wish me well.
