Relatives and Dad's a pill

So John, Lesa & Garrett came in this weekend, so Friday morning, we went over to their house around 10 am (apparently they'd already been there a couple hours) and they were playing a movie trivia game that Tab & Hannah put together. After awhile we went up and played spoons which was pretty crazy but really fun, breaking a few spoons in the process!(plastic) Then there was a lot of randomness going on here and there and I went down a reprimanded everyone because I was mad they didn't want to play spoons anymore. Then I came down later and started beating people with my shoe, not sure why and Hannah took my shoe away and was trying to get me and that's when Dad came down and and squashed everything. Later on he said we all had to go on a walk and it was freezing!!!! When we came back, Dad's like if there's a bunch of noise, we'll be doing it again. I said haha Dad you're funny (not) Then later Tab & I were downstairs and she asked me (by typing on her phone) if I wanted to go get some candy with her, the dip  n sticks. So we ran out to the car real quick before anyone noticed. We went to the mall and went the candy emporium store then went down to auntie annes but it was too busy and they didn't have any pretzels made, then we went into Hallmark and looked at the ornaments and that's when Lydia called and she was mad because we didn't invite her then on our way home, lesa called and was like why didn't you invite me. I said we're coming home and she's like we're leaving to get some candy! When we turned on our street, they were coming down the street, so I said we should follow them. I called mom when we were behind them and asked where they were going and she said to get some coffee. So we followed them to Target then went in and Lydia and I went off and Tab called and Joe was looking for us then we all went to the entrance because Joe & Lydia wanted to go with them and they started running out the door and I yelled watch for cars and just as Joe ran behind this car, it started backing up so Tab went over to their car and said Mom you need to watch him, he doesn't listen. Then we went back home and I forgot I was supposed to get Jason a pop so I asked if anyone wanted to go and I kept asking Garrett then I finally said you know if you go with me, you can get a Monster!!! Then immediately he was like let's go! Lydia went with too and I got her some whoppers and Mom some pixie sticks. Then we came back home and played some more games and wrestled some more.

A Day with Mom

Day with Mom today. Every 4th weekend she has to work so she gets the following Monday off and during the summer, I would go over to their house, but since the kids are in school now, so she came and picked me up and we went to Jimmy Johns over by their house. We went in and sat down and she said there's a lot of people and I was looking around and thinking, hmm, there's only 2 other people in here~ :) She meant behind the counter, but it was funny! :) Then we went by their house to get stamps, then went to the bank and they bank at WellsFargo now and we went in the drive up and she said theres a person on there. I didn't see it because the teller wasn't talking, but when the teller starts talking the camera shows who you're talking to, again funny, because it was like Mom was hearing/seeing things again! Anyway, then we went to the mall because Mom had a coupon for for Coldwater Creek, which is a very expensive store!!! She ended up getting a scarf and 2 long sleeve shirts and after the $25 coupon it was still $65! Then we walked around and went in Forever 21 and I showed her the stuff that Hannah liked, then we went to Bath and Body Works and I got a couple candles, then we went to Sams Club. There was a lady at Sams with twin boys and another boy. It was funny because the twins were putting each other in a headlock and laughing at each other! :) Then when we got to the checkout, mom noticed the mom had dropped her jacket so she went to pick it up for her, but I didn't realize that, so I'm standing there at the checkout and realize Mom is nowhere to be found!!! She just laughed when she came back. She's like didn't you know, you're paying for it?! :) Then we came back to our place and played a couple games of Zip and a couple games of No Speed Limit. Oh and we had to go to the church to get Dad's computer cord that he left during SS. Then after we played some games, I asked her to change my nose piercing for me. She actually did a great job. I love days with my mom! :)

Family Time

9.1.12
So let's see, it's been pretty good lately with Dad, I haven't really come home feeling like I'm the scum of the earth and Dad thinks that too. Anyway, last Sat. I picked up Bekah and we went looking for a shower curtain that had owls on it to seperate her area downstairs.We went to BB&B first, but they didn't really have much of anything fun, so then we went to Shopko and found a cute one and we picked up some candy for everybody. We went by the theater to get Dad his gift card, but it wasn't open yet, so went back home, but then we realized we didn't have rings to put up the curtain, so we were going to go to Walmart and I asked if Mom & Dad needed anything and Mom said they needed dishwashing detergent and Dad said Mom needed towels, so I was asking about colors and Hannah kept freaking out about pink towels and how she wanted sky blue but darker but not navy!! Anyway, so Bekah & I went to Walmart and got the rings and then sent a pic of some blue towels to Hannah and she picked the one she wanted. So we got 7 of them then went home and put up the curtain. Mom asked me how much I owed her and I said 2 cents and she said what a bargain ,then I said you owe me a whole day with me! Then I said I don't need money, I need love!!! :) I was supposed to help Dad with organizing stuff, but he wasn't quite ready, he was cleaning out the little storage room and getting stuff to get rid of, so I asked him if he wanted me to come back the next day and help and he said to call him. We went to Menards to get some boards, Joe came with, then we went to HyVee to get some meat and drinks for the cookout at the Bensons that night. We came back home and Dad started cutting the boards, but then he stopped so we could go to Bensons.

9.2.12
I called him the next day and he said to come over. I emptied out the school stuff from the bottom of the pantry and organized all of it. It took quite awhile, they could open a small office supply store with all their stuff! Dad had to go get some more boards because he cut them wrong. I got all the stuff organized and put on the new shelves, then we had a bonfire that night and lit a bunch of sparklers. It was a lot of fun! :)

9.9.12
Today we had a potluck after church and we brought Lydia & Bekah home and asked if Joe could come over and watch the Vikings game and when I brought him back home I would pick up him, Lydia & Bekah for the SS Worker's Meeting, so he said that would work. So Jason & Joe watched the game with lots of yelling :) then they walked to Cherry Berry, then came back and watched a little more then I took Joe home and I sat downstairs and watched some LOTR with a few of them. Then I took them to the meeting and on the way home, Dad was picking (not in a bad way) about my driving or things going on on the car!! And Bekah said you know you're driving's not that great either Dad! :) And earlier Bekah was showing her homework flashcards to Dad and he was saying something about math flashcards and she was like I don't do math flashcards Dad, nobody does, except you! And Mom was like you're not gonna get anywhere saying that! :)And when we were at the meeting and talking to Bekah, she answered us and stuck her boobs out! It was funny.

More Sister Bonding

So Monday, Mom had the day off so I went over to their house and all of us except Bekah & Dad went to Taco Bell for lunch then went to Hobby Lobby to pick out a frame for dad to put a picture in that I of course wasn't in. *sigh* Then we came back to the house and played some badminton.





Sunday was Dad's birthday, so we went to Carlos O Kelly's for lunch, then went to Byron to mini golf(it was me & Dad in the end and I won!!!)  I had some really crazy shots that I probably couldn't do again! And Elizabeth got a hole in one. Then we went to Dairy Queen and got dad's ice cream cake, then took it home and had some. Then we played some badminton, although Lydia was being a butt and didn't want to play.But then Brady came over and she started playing, little stinker, then everyone went in except me and I was just sitting there thinkin, then Bekah came out with some popcorn and we played another game then I said we should go inside because the bugs were out, so we sat at the table and ate some popcorn. I tried talking to Lydia about how I didn't understand about everyone being so upset about her being gone, but she didn't really understand, so I basically dropped it. Then Lydia went to the bathroom, so Bekah & I ran downstairs and went in her area to hid from her. Lydia came down and called Bekah's name and we just sat there quietly and then just as Lydia was about to leave, Bekah sniffed, haha, so Lydia knew we were in there. Then we chased each other around, sat on each other, beat on each other a bit, we were having fun and Eliz was yelling at us to be quiet because she wanted to sleep, but it was only like 9, so we just told her she'd have to get used to it and she stormed out. Then I was writing with Bekah's Sharpie pack and I told Bekah to write something on me, so she wrote I <3 U then Lydia (the turd) wrote "My poop is brown" Lydia, then she wrote "bellybutton" on the back of my calf, then she wrote eye boogers on the top of my foot, then I told her to fix it and she put "I love" in front of it. I wrote boobs on Bekah's toes and Bekah wrote Brooke and pink on my other leg. We had so much fun just hanging out in Bekah's area. I love my sisters :)

Sister Bonding

Today was so fun with Hannah, Bekah, Lydia & Elizabeth. Hannah moved her stuff over to where Tab's stuff was and Elizabeth moved her stuff downstairs. Eliz had a ton of stuff so it took most of the day. Rebekah helped her put her clothes away all in the right places, altogether, I was so proud of how she was putting them together, but they started by putting the underwear away, which apprently means you have to roll them! That was so funny to watch. Oh and when mom was going through the clothes and she kept pulling things out and saying oh this is cute and I said you know Eliz isn't going to want it if you say it's cute, so mom was like oh this is manly. Haha, Eliz kept saying I don't need anymore clothes!!! Eliz and I went through the stuff in her room and threw stuff away and boxed up a bunch of stuff to give away. We were upstairs going through her stuff and Lydia and Bekah started pantsing her and she pulled Bekah's pants down a little far and was like oh there's hair and Bekah's like ya, I don't shave down there and I was like some people do and they get it waxed and Lydia was like ewww and Jason was like I don't wanna know what body part you're talking about. Then later on Eliz was looking at a picture on the fridge and was like I have a booboo on my forehead and I said well you need to get some booboos up there! I love my sisters so much and it was such a fun bonding day with them

And yesterday (8-24), I went over and hung out and we played some games, then I took Bekah to her bday party (Lydia & Eliz came with) then I brought them home and went home to eat then went back and we played some badminton, then later went and picked up Bekah :)

Infusion Hell start

Ok, so for the update on these stupid infusions. On Monday (July 23), they decided that they would call the IV team from now on, because they do this ALL the time and deal with hard veins and all that, anyway, they called the team and 30 later, still no one had showed up, so Paula, who I've had before decided to take a look and then said she was going to get Melinda, who is "very good and if I say she's good, she's good!" Anway, Melinda ended up going in the anicube (which is the bend of my arm) and it hurt like hell!!! And 3 days later, it was still hurting. When she did it, she's like, well it's in the vein, apparentely it doesn't matter if it hurts, as long as it's in the vein!!! So Wed, I felt like crap about the last 1/2 hr of dialysis. I started feeling really flu like, crappy, aches, fever all that fun stuff. Thankfully I had Marie, Dawn and Jamie who all actually care about me and Dr. Albright came over and wanted to do a blood culture because I felt so bad. I went home and spent the rest of the day in bed, but around 4, Lydia had said she wanted to do something, so I dragged myself out of bed and went and picked her up. I asked her why she didn't ask Brady and she said if she would have asked him, he would have told Mary who would have told Martha and that would be too many people, which I told her it wouldn't, but then Bekah wouldn't have a way to get to church because I was taking Lydia to church. When we were leaving I asked Bekah why she wasn't coming and she said because she wasn't invited and so I said do you want to come, which I think Lydia got a little upset about, but she got over it. We went to Taco Bell because Lydia had a gift card and then we went to the mall to Vanity. Then I took them to church. We played kickball and me, Lydia and Brady were on the same team and we were terrible!! But it was fun, but a hot and sweaty! Anyway, the next day I had another infusion and when she (Michelle Ring) took me into the room, I asked if they had called the IV team because it was supposed to be on my orders and she said no, it's not on here. She seemed kindof pissy because it seemed like she didn't really get to do anything because we had to wait for the IV team and when the guy came (Chad) he knew right away where he was going to go and he did a great job. Apparently he used a really tiny needle and Michelle had no idea what size it was and Paula was sitting there and Michelle was like what size needle is this? And Paula responded, but kindof in a you should know this kind of way, it's a 24.

Infusion Hell

So Thursday (July 19) was infusion day and after a bad stick, they decided they were going call the IV team. Alex, from the IV team got it in, but it was painful, so anyway, Cindy decided she would just put on the orders to call the IV team for me. On Monday, I got in there and they had called the IV team, but 1/2 hr later, they still hadn't showed up, so Paula was there and she said she would take a look, then get Melinda because "she's really good and if I say she's good, she's good" Well she got it in , but she used the anicube (the bend of my arm) and it hurt like hell and she was like well we're in the vein, so apperently it didn't matter if it hurt!! On Thursday (July 26), I got there and had Michelle Ring and I asked her if they had called the IV team because it was supposed to be on the orders and she said it wasn't on there and she seemed huffy because she couldn't just get me done, she had to wait for the team. Chad, from the IV team came and knew right away where he was going to go and it didn't hurt. Apparently he used a really small needle and Michelle asked Paula what size it was because she had never seen one that small and Paula responded kindof in a you should know what size it is, 24. Then Michelle said to Nom "She said that calling the IV team was supposed to be on the orders, but it's not." and Nom pointed it right out to her. She wasn't nice or friendly at all.
Wednesday (July 25), I had a pretty bad day. The last 1/2 hr of dialysis, I felt like I had the flu, achy, fever, just really bad. Thankfully, I had Marie, Dawn & Jamie and they took really good care of me. Also Dr. Albright came over and said he was going to do some blood cultures to make sure I was alright. I went home and spent the rest of the afternoon in bed. Around 4, Lydia wanted to go hang out, so I went to pick her up. I didn't think she was going to be able to hang out because when she asked Dad, he said we'll see, which almost always means no, but apperently he was at work, so it was up to Mom :) I went to pick her up and when I was leaving, I asked Bekah why she wasn't going and she said she wasn't invited and I asked her to come which I think maybe Lydia was a little upset about to begin with, but she got over it! I asked her why Brady didn't come and she said because he would have told Mary and she would have told Martha and then Bekah wouldn't have had any way to get to church since I was taking her. Anyway, we went to Taco Bell, then to Vanity. Lydia didn't have quite enough on her gift card, so I helped her out and got Bekah some earrings :) Then we took off to church and played some kickball. Lydia, Brady & I were on a team, a very losing team! :) But it was fun and hot and sweaty! We had Bible study, but I mainly texted people during it, probably bad, but I have trouble paying attention! :) Thursday, went over to Mom & Dad's around 5 to give them a bag of goodies for their trip. Dad was a pill as usual. There was a cake on the table and I said (jokingly) oh you made me a cake! and Dad was like NO! and I said Dad it was a joke, obviously you didn't make me a cake. What is his problem?? Seriously, is it just because I was born?? Get over it already!
