Granny

So as you all know now my grandmother is in the hospital. I just wanted to update you all on her progress. Yesterday was a really hard day for her and our family. As they were taking her off the ventilator she stopped breathing and had a heart attack and passed. They resuscitated her and got her stable. My sister, Jayden, and I went up to the hospital at around 3 and saw her, she was very heavily sedated so she didn't see us. She was doing well and today she is doing very good. Her lungs are still not good, but tonight when Megan and I went to see her she seemed like she was in very good spirts, and even smiled when she saw us. The doctor also came and told her what had happened and what her options were. She will have to live with a trachea for the rest of her life if that is her decision. Which I hope that is what her decision is. If not then she will decided to be at peace with God. Which I will also understand. I just pray and hope for the best. I am sure everything will work out for the better though, just have to keep my hopes up!

On another fine note .... I had Christmas yesterday with my Nana, dad, Megan, and Jayden, and it was wonderful ... as my dad likes to say Jayden got a Winnie the Pooh thingy, that he enjoys alot, and also got Pettie! Who he will love! I also had a very wonderful time, and was very glad that I got to see my dad and Nana. I don't see them that often and I sure hope that that changes!

So tomorrow is New Year's Eve, and I can't believe it. What a year this has been. This year has definitely had it's ups and downs.... but for the most part all of them are ups. Looking back her are just a few of the perks:
1. February 26, 2008 ... My lovely son was born at 9:05pm weighing a healthy 6lbs 11oz
2. September 23, 2008 .... I turned 21!
3. October 2008 ... I started college at ATI to become a Medical Assistant

Those would be my top 3! I am so happy about those things and can't wait to look forward to this upcoming year!!! I know that it will be a great one! I have so much to look forward too ... Brandon is graduating boot camp on Jan. 24 ... from the Air Force! Go CUZ! Jayden will be 1 in February. Oh and don't forget we are all going to DTV in February too! LOL!!!! I graduate in September!!! Oh and that crazy sister of mine will be 21! OMG!!! :)

Anyways enough with my ramblings ... good night to all!! Have a safe and Happy New Year!

Merry Christmas

Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas!

So today was Jayden's first Christmas ... he got so much stuff ... it was crazy. I got some pretty neat stuff too ... but it was all about him this year!!! I am so glad that he enjoyed it ... I know he will sleep well tonight.

I just wish that my granny would have been there to see him. For you that don't know my grandmother is in the hospital. Harris downtown in ICU. She has been in there for almost a week now. She feel going to the bathroom in her apartment and has stitches from her head to her chin, she broke her fibula, the biggest bone in the leg, she has pneumonia, and also has a blood infection, she is also on a ventilator which is helping her breath, so she can't talk to us. I feel so bad for her. Tonight was actually the first night that I have been up there to see her because I have been fighting off a cold myself. So I didn't know really how bad her injuries were, but when I saw her tonight it was awful. I couldn't help the tears running down my face, she looked so miserable. I also felt bad because I couldn't bring Jayden back there and she wanted to see him so bad. Hopefully she will be OK, I pray for her every night.

So something up lifting for you guys, my A/P test I took Tuesday at school I made a 98 .... which means I only missed 2. Plus we also got 25 points extra for our essay that we wrote on the difference between diabetic coma and insulin shock. Which believe me I know ... my grandmother is diabetic. So that means that I would get a 123 if I got those extra 25 points. Which would be way cool. I don't get to find out though until the 5th when we go back ... so hopefully there will be some good news. I also have my other 2 test on the day we get back for front office and lab. I hope that those are easy as well. They will be open book so I hope I do good.

Well Christmas with dad and nana will be on Monday. So I can't wait for that. Anyways I am going to go ... I have to go to work tomorrow at 4 and I think I am going to go shopping for a little while before then. So goodnight everyone and Happy Holidays.

Bad Habits

So lately Jayden has been waking up in the middle of the night screaming, so I usually just pick him up and put him in the bed with me ...... bad bad bad me, well last night he did that and I put him in the bed with me and he fell right back to sleep as did I .... well this morning at 7 he fell off the bed and bumped his head on the night stand .... I felt so bad it scared the crap out of me ... but thank god he has a hard head .. all it left was 2 little scratches and a bruise. Oh and by the way he is acting like his normal self ... so he is fine. It just shows that I need to stop doing that and let him cry it out and put himself back to sleep.

Onto another bad habit .... SMOKING ... gosh no matter how many times I try to quit ... I just can't stick with it ... I want to stop but something always happens and I find myself with one in my hand just smoking away. Especially at school ... all of my friends at school smoke .... and it's really hard at break time not to have a smoke with them. So my New Year's resolution is this ... STOP SMOKING ... so wish me luck!

Anyways hope everyone has a wonderful day!

Catching UP

So I haven't wrote in a week so thought that I would catch you lovely people up on what's being going on in my life! Well let's see I now work Mon and wed afternoon's at mi pueblo so I can make some extra money and start saving for my own place. I like it .. Megan babysits for me ... she does a good job! My mom and I are not getting along at all ... it maybe do to the fact that I never see her that much because she is gone when I wake up and I am gone by the time she gets home ... and then when I do get home from school she is usually asleep or awake and doesn't say much ... so I dunno what is up with her and I, but I know this might seem a little rude to people but I might add that I kind of like it when I don't see her that much ... it is so much nicer, like the weekends suck because I have to see her ... like today (sat) she was such a Meany ... she wouldn't stop being on my ass about stupid crap, but that's my mom for ya.
Anyways so Monday at school was good ... nothing much really happened. So nothing really to write about there.

Tuesday ... was a good day, Jayden had a doctor's appointment at 9:15 ... and we were running a little late so I called and talked to the receptionist and she said if you are more than 10 mins later for your appt. you are going to have to reschedule ... I made it right at 9:25 and due to there clock being a min ahead of mine ... I had to reschedule I was so mad. So I reschedule it for the 12Th at 9:15. UHH seriously some doctor's offices make me mad ... I'll tell you what happened on Friday ... OMG! Tuesday at school was good ... we now have 3 hours of lab ... which means I get to poke people for 3 hours FAN-TAS-TIC!

Wednesday ... went to work got off early because I had a WIC appt. at 2:15 ... went there took Jayden .. you would not believe how many people kept telling me how cute he was and how much he looked like me ... I just wanted to be like ya I know my son's the best HAHAHA but I didn't .... so WIC has started this new smart card thing which is kind of really cool .. but wal-mart I tell ya is so not up to date with this new technology ... I went the next day THURSDAY ... and had to go to 4 different registers just to get Jayden some formula ... I swear!
School went well ... nothing really exciting there.

Thursday ... umm let's see just school ... it was good ... after school Erik, Joe, Amanda, Victoria, and I played v-ball with a beach ball outside. It was fun and hilarious too because we were running our butts off so the ball wouldn't hit the ground. Very fun! Came home and totally just went to bed I was so tired.

Friday... so like i said before i had reschedule Jayden's doctor appt. for today ... well I get there early this time ... and wait for about a hour. When they finally call my name ... he says we're sorry we can't see Jayden today because your insurance only pays for 1 well-check a year ... I am so mad I could have went off on that dude ... so I ask him well what can I do so I can get him in because he has a stuffy nose and a rash ... they reschedule me for Saturday at 9:30. OMG I can't believe this crap!!! Went to work made some money was happy ... was suppose to hang out with my new friend Amanda but totally passed out because I was so tired.

Today ... got up took Jayden to the doctor .. he got seen finally ... got 2 presciptions one is a cream for his dry skin and the other is for his stuff nose. So took those to walgreens after we left ... they won't be ready until monday. Went to work at 3 ... had a good time ... have to work tomorrow at 3 also. So hopefully that'll be a good day too

well that's about it .... nothing too exciting going on ... anyways talk to ya'll later
