VACATIONS/SCHOOL/KIDS

Aug 18, 2010 06:04pm (EST)

Whew where do I start?. I have been very busy with school for me, school for kids, Brendan and Jared's birthday party and planning trips. Brendan starts school August 31 and Anastasia starts Preschool Sept 7th. The good news is both kids go to the same bus in the morning at the same time. Brendan is in full day and leaves at 749 am and is back at like 245pm. Starzy comes home around 1045 am. I start school Sept 17th so I get a break. I'm planning a trip in December or January to New York City. My best friend Steven is paying for it and hes going to show me New York. If I want to go for a week I have to take a kid with me if not I can go the weekend alone. Then in November Steven will visit me again. He's here now until Sept 1. He's awesome he helps me with my housework and the kids love playing with him. I have been bummed out lately and he has made me feel so positive. He lights up a room when he's in it. My hubby Jared and I were having issues but have since fixed them. Steven has pampered me and I love it. I will be sad when he goes back home. School next quarter will be extremely hard. My 2 classes are Friday night 6pm-1020pm then home in bed by 1130 then up at 7am to get to my Sat class at 9. God help me.Jared is doing well at home and at work. We had some interenet issues but they are now fixed. Jared is a great guy and I love him till death. Brendan is doing better with his attitude. We perform Reikki and Massage Therapy on him and its a Godsend. His Psychcologist is requesting Neuro Psch exams were waiting to see if the insurance will pay. He has now been diagnosed with ADHD and a disorder that basically says he has fine motor issues. He does not have PDD. He is very excited about school and has been having a great time. We took him to the Beach and the amusement park and we all played games so the kids could get tickets for prizes. I also got a new tat. The tat is a Japenese Kanji symbol which means Angel. I got it for my 2 Earth angels Steven and Jared and for all my family in Heaven. School is going well for me I'm getting good grades and last quarter I got an Honors certificate. I'm busting my butt. Anastasia is still the Diva. she loves to do kisses now she says kisses and then kisses ur cheek. She is also excited about school and has had a great summer. As for me I am really happy right now and I feel Blessed. Hugs Jess

Brendan will be 5 in a few weeks . I can't believe it. Were having a birthday for him at the house. Life has changed a great deal for me. My hubby and I separated for a few days. Were back together and have worked it out. I have a busy week. I go to school 2 days this week and The kids are going to a sleepover and I have will have 3 people staying with me this weekend. My best friend Steven has been here and hes great. He was born in Miami, but lives in NewYork. He's here for a month. Hes awesome with the kids and they love him. He taught me Reikki and Massage Therapy and has practiced it on me and I'm feeling so much better. I have been bummed out for awhile but he is a positive guy and I love him to death. He's Chinese Native American and Hungarian. He's 38 single no kids and is an absolute sweetheart. He has been pampering me. I got my hair, nails, and eyebrows done. He bought me a great deal of stuff including a ring with my son,my brothers birthstone . March is aquamarine. I will be sad when he leaves . He radiates positive energy. The kids are doing well they are going to sleep over my sisters house Thursday. While I was separated the kids visited my grama and my mom and 2 sisters. I feel very relieved to have Stephen here, I'm at peace. hugs Jess

FARM/PEACE

Jul 24, 2010 06:06pm (EST)

The kids had a blast today their grandparents took them to a farm and they got ice cream. Jared's dad finally bought his fiance Diane a engagement ring so I will have a new mother-in-law. The ring is really pretty. Dad bought us ice cream as well and then Jared and i went to the library and then Walmart to get a few things for when Steven is here. I read my magazine and painted my toe nails. I relaxed a little and now I feel at peace. I'm super excited about Steven coming to see us . He is going to do massage therapy and reikki on me.He's also going to do Reikki on Brendan to see if it will help with his issues. Brendan's psychologist says he does not have PDD, she's studying him to find out what he has. She says he is a special child, I dunno he may just be gifted.The kids are doing well. Jared was sick but is now better and I can't wait to be pampered and get a break. Steven somehow relaxes me. Hugs Jess

VISIT WITH MOM /COMPANY

Jul 11, 2010 06:37pm (EST)

Jared and I went to a cookout at my mom's house today with the kids. The kids played in the yard and had a great time. I have a friend named Steven visiting from New York in 2 weeks. He's staying for 3 weeks and I'm going to show him Nashua,NH where I Live and Salem,MA where I was born. I'm excited to see him because he totally gets me as a person. I have no friends here at all so it will be good to have a friend. He's going to cook for me and take me too see the new Eclipse movie. The kids are doing great.

HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY

Jul 04, 2010 02:11pm (EST)

We have had a great deal happy this weekend so far.Brendan and Anastasia met their big brother for the first time Saturday. They all clicked right away. He played Basketball with them, shared his soda and taught them how to play WII. He told them he loves them and they said it back. He gave them each one of his toys. He looks like my brother who passed away. While we were there we kept seeing Monarch Butterflies which is a sign that Ben is around. Ben was my brother. My mom also got to see him for the first time in 6 years and he loves her also. He acts alot like my Ben and looks like him alot. My son never ceases to amaze me. He is very respectful he held the door for my mom and I. He's also good looking and outgoing. He loves DC sneakers and wearing dark clothes but has a big heart.I can't wait to get him home so far it looks good. We had a cook out at my house today with my sis Siobhan and her 2 kids and husband. Tonight we will see fireworks and we are doing sparklers. Jared and I had a date night last night we went to see THe Karate Kid, it was great. We did receive some bad news. We can't get IVF because of my prenatal history. We are proceeding another route. We are trying a medication or looking maybe at surgery. So wish me luck. The kids are great they had fun with their cousins today blowing bubbles and playing ball. hugs Jess

IVF/KIDS/CHANGE OF LIFE

Jun 29, 2010 07:09am (EST)

I GOT EVERYTHING DONE THAT THE IVF DOCTOR WANTED, INCLUDING SEEING THE MATERNAL FETAL MEDICINE DOCTOR. MY OLD DOCTOR THE SPECIALIST IS ADVISING THAT I'M REALLY CAREFUL AND ITS DANGEROUS IF I GET PREGNANT. HE TOLD ME THE RISKS ARE 1 PERCENT DEATH,MAYBE AN ICU STAY, DAMAGE AGAIN TO MY BLADDER, DAMAGE TO MY ORGANS AND PLACENTA ACCRETA. IF I GET PLACENTA ACCRETA I AGREED I WOULD LET HIM DO A HYSTERECTOMY AND IF I DON'T I AGREED TO HAVE MY TUBES BURNED OR TIED. I ONLY WANT ONE MORE BABY. WERE WAITING TO SEE IF THE IVF DOCTOR WILL DO THE IVF BECAUSE THE SPECIALIST IS SO AGAINST IT. IF HE SAYS YES WE PROCEED IF HE SAYS NO WE KEEP TRYING ON OUR OWN AND WE CONTINUE TO SEE A SPECIALIST WHO BELIEVES THIS PROBLEM MAY JUST REQUIRE MEDS OR SURGERY. WE HAVE AN APPT TODAY TO GET SOME ANSWERS TO WHATS WRONG.I'M HOPING WE CAN JUST FIX THE ISSUE AND DO IT ON OUR OWN. WE HAVE BEEN REALLY BUMMED OUT ABOUT THIS. JARED AND I HAVE DECIDED TO CHANGE OUR LIFESTYLE TO GET HEALTHIER. I DON'T USE SUGAR ANYMORE, I USE SPLENDA . WE BOTH EAT MORE SALADS AND LESS FAT AND WE BOTH EXERCISE. JARED WALKS AROUND THE PARKING LOT AT LUNCH TIME AT WORK AND I WALK ABOUT 4 MILES A DAY WITH THE KIDS. THE KIDS ARE IN THE WAGON I PULL SO I'M ALSO BUILDING MUSCLE. I WANT TO BE THINNER AND I HAVE ALREADY LOST 50 POUNDS JUST BY WALKING AND EATING LESS JUNK. I ALSO DRINK WATER. JARED AND I ALSO HAVE STARTED CARVING TIME OUT FOR OUR OWN SPACE. I TAKE WALKS AND LISTEN TO MY IPOD. I ALSO READ BOOKS FROM THE LIBRARY WHICH WE GO TO A LOT.I ALSO HAVE BOUGHT SOME RELAXING MUSIC OFF OF ITUNES THAT I LISTEN TO WHEN I'M STRESSED. I BOUGHT MY HUBBY A WII SO WE CAN START EXERCISING ALSO. JARED IS DIABETIC AND I HAVE STARTED MAKING HEALTHY MEALS FOR HIM. I WENT WITH HIM TO SEE THE NUTRITIONAL EXPECT. SHE WAS A GREAT SOURCE OF INFORMATION. I'M DOING EVERYTHING TO KEEP HIM HEALTHY. HE HATES BEING DIABETIC SO THAT WHY I SWITCHED TO SPLENDA I USED TO BE A SUGAR PERSON BUT IT WASN'T FAIR TO JARED SO I SWITCHED. I LOVE MY HUSBAND HE IS A GREAT GUY AND I DON'T WANT TO LOSE HIM. HIM AND I ARE TRYING TO LOSE WEIGHT TOGETHER AND HE'S TRYING TO STABILIZE HIS DIABETES.HE'S DOING GOOD SO FAR. HE'S GOING TO GET HIS EYES CHECKED AND NEW GLASSES TODAY AND LATER THIS WEEK WE WILL MEET THE DIABETIC EDUCATOR. JARED IS AN AWESOME GUY AND I LOVE HIM SO MUCH. HE IS A GREAT DAD TO THE KIDS AND WERE IN THE MIDDLE OF HIM ADOPTING THEM. THEIR BIO DAD IS FIGHTING US. OUR NEXT COURT DATE IS JULY 29TH AND WERE HOPING HE WILL GIVE IN. HE DOES NOTHING FOR THEM AND HASN'T SEE THEM IN ALMOST 4 YEARS. WERE ALSO STILL WORKING ON GETTING MY 13 YEAR OLD SON HOME HOPEFULLY. SO WERE PRETTY BUSY.MY SON WILL MEET HIS SIBLINGS FOR THE FIRST TIME ON JULY 3RD AND HE SEEMS HAPPY ABOUT IT.BRENDAN SAW A PSYCHOLOGIST WHO FEELS HE IS NOT AUTISTIC, BUT AGREES WITH THE DIAGNOSES OF PDD NOS. WE STILL DON'T KNOW WHATS WRONG WITH HIS MEMORY IF ANYTHING OR HIS ATTENTION. HE DOES NOT HAVE ADD OR ADHD . I'M REALLY FRUSTRATED BECAUSE HE NEEDS HELP AND WE HAVE NO IDEA WHATS WRONG. WE ARE GOING TO CONTINUE SEEING THE PSYCHOLOGIST AND IF SHE RECOMMENDS TESTING WE HAVE TO FIGHT OUR INSURANCE. ON A LIGHTER SIDE OF THINGS I STILL THANK GOD EVERYDAY FOR MY LIFE AND MY CHILDREN. I FEEL LIKE I HAVE A HAPPY LIFE. THE KIDS ARE DOING WELL AND ENJOYING THE SUMMER. BRENDAN WENT WITH HIS GRANDPA AND GRAMA CAMPING IN THEIR TRAILER. ANASTASIA WENT CAMPING WITH HER FRIEND AND WERE HAVING A COOKOUT WITH MY MOM ON THE 4TH AND SEEING MY SON ON THE 3RD.I'M TRYING TO IMAGINE LIFE WITH A TEENAGER BECAUSE I'M SO USED TO LITTLE KIDS. ANASTASIA IS HAVING A GROWTH SPURT AND IS QUITE TAN. SHE HAS HER FATHERS ARMENIAN COLOR LUCKY GIRL. SHE IS STILL SKINNY AND TINY. SHE IS A HAPPY LITTLE GIRL WHO LOVES BEING WITH HER MOMMY. SHE'S MY YOUNGEST AND MY BABY. I PAINTED HER TOENAILS PINK HER FAVORITE COLOR. SHE LOVES BEING A LITTLE DIVA. BRENDAN IS STILL HAVING TANTRUMS AND OUTBURSTS I'M WAITING FOR NEUROLOGY TO CALL TO SEE WHAT WE CAN DO. I'M TRYING TO STAY AWAY FROM MEDS BUT HE MAY NEED THEM. HE IS VERY SMART THO AND IS FUNNY AND OUTGOING UNLIKE HIS SHY QUIET SISTER. I HOPE ALL IS WELL WITH YOU GUYS, HUGS JESS
