Let the crazyness begin!

Well its been a busy year already. Good news, I got my results back from my MRI and they said My kidney was "completely benign, no follow up needed", this was the best news ever!

Conner is finishing his 1st semester as a freshman and I think he's getting the picture just how hard life can be if you wait until the week before to do all your homework.( oy vey ) I wish we could give them a glimpse of whats its like to be "grown up" raising a family , working, etc. just so they can see how good they really have it and they should do their best becasue this will determine the life they have later, but we all have to learn. Conner has been playing in the band at the basket ball games and he seems to love it which is good, the band and choir are going to Disneyland in May so that will be good for him, maybe bring him out his shell alittle more.

Hayden, Oh Hayden, where to begin, he is hilarious. He is asking so many questions right now, why people are in wheel chairs? why the man has no leg? why poop is brown ? lol (yes he really asked that) he will talk to anyone, in fact Conner and I took him to the movie for his birthday and we are sitting waiting for the movie to start and these girls come into the theatre Hayden yells" hey its my birthday, were're watching a movie, come on over" I thought Conner would die right there. Hayden does this to Conner alot. We were at the park right by our house and Conner walks up on his way home from school and Hayden tell the kids " This is my husband , Conner" and I wonder why we have sibling rivalry.

Anyway hope all is well with everyone and your New year is great!

Love, Helen

Happy new year!

Well 2009 has already gotten off to a crazy start. Iv been alittle more than nervous, I have to go back in for a 6 month recheck for the cyst on my kidney they found back in July. they said it "looked" fluid filled and fine but they just need to be sure. uggggg me and my anxiety would be perfectly happy to be left alone and live in la la land as though nothing could possibly be wrong but you know me if I can find something to consume me , I will, please pray for me.

Hayden had shots Monday (4 of them) I felt horrible because at this age they really think your doing this to be mean. He kept beggin "mommy, dont let her hurt me anymore" that was rough, he had 2 in each leg so hes a sore little dude. owell hes done til hes 12. advil works wonders and lots of baths :O)

Conner goes back to school today and is dreading it, he had a whole extra week of due to our blizzard so hes gotten quite used to lazing around, dont tell him IHave kind of enjoyed his company, but alas he needs to go back so he can get a good education and be rich so he can put me in a decent retirement home. (like he threatens all the time) he loves his mama, really he does!

I'm reading a new book called "The worn out woman" when your life is full but your spirit is empty hmmmmm seems fitting, so far so good. Im learing how to just say NO! :O)

anyway thats all I got now, ill post some pics soon from the Holidays. Oh BTW I start my class again at BALLYS on thursday the 8th, another 10 weeks , wish me to lose 10 more inches :O)

love ya all
