Upset with my Mom

I'm upset with my Mom, because I know that she is smoking again. I know this because twice now, I've been on the phone with her and can here her sucking in air. The sound that I am all too familiar with since she smoke my entire life. Plus the fact that she was outside talking to me on the phone while my Dad went to pick up dinner. My mom never goes outside. I called her out on it before and she denied it. But since I'm not there I have no proof.

So last night I got off the phone and went outside to talk to Greg and told him that I know my mom is smoking again. And he told me that she was! I flipped. My parents were down Sunday and somehow he brought up my Mom smoking to my Dad and he told her that she was only smoking when her friend Pat came around. But obviously Pat wasn't around while I was talking with her on the phone, so she is doing it more then what Dad thinks. Or Dad knows and isn't saying anything, which is probably the case. I am mad at her because she is sneaking around and lying about it. Here I thought for 9 months she's quit, but I guess she fooled me. So now I get to spend a week on vacation with her, and you better believe I'm going to be watching her like a hawk and will bring it up. As Greg said to me last night..."well if she is smoking again, she'll have another week to stop, because she's not smoking around us." UGH..... I'm so angry at her.

Not feeling so hot

Yesterday afternoon, I could tell I was starting to get a migraine and felt like my stomach was upset. So I took some Advil and went to lay down. About an hour later I woke up feeling much better, but I was extremely hot. This morning, I woke up feeling the same way. The headache is slight, but my tummy doesn't feel to hot. Naturally all I want to do is curl up in a ball and go back to bed, but I can't. I hope this passes soon. We leave for vacation Saturday...Ugh.

Oh...I guess I should mention that my OB's nurse told me that I had a spike in my progesterone levels this month to 26.5. My highest levels ever. And usually when they see spikes like this that means that you've been successful in getting pregnant. But since my period isn't suppose to hit me until Saturday, the freaking waiting game is killing me. I've take 2 pregnancy test so far only for them to literally yell back at me that I wasn't pregnant. I won't take anymore until my period is late.

Add all this together....and...well...make your on conclusion. But my body is evil like that and I swear it hates me. I'm just going to wait to see what Saturday brings.

Life is Good!!!

Ahhhh...We have a 3 day weekend ahead of us. A 4 day work week next week and then 9 glorious days off for vacation. Life is good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just try...

For the first time in my life, I’m actually considering moving out of Delaware. I’ve always said that I wouldn’t move because I’m the only family left for my Mom and Dad and I need to stay close for them. But recently I’ve been thinking about my life with Greg and what we need to do for us and our future. Greg is miserable at DuPont and can’t find a job that he would truly be happy doing in this area. He’s found jobs in Florida and other states that he’d be qualified for and could be really happy at. I’ve told him many times, to apply for the jobs to see if he’d get a call back, but he doesn’t. He doesn’t because he knows I don’t want to move. However, I think if he had a job offer and it made sense to move then I would. He’s been miserable lately and it kills me, at this point I would do anything for him to be happy. Even if that meant leaving Delaware and my parents behind. I just wish he would try and see what happens.

Twitter

Okay - I'm thinking about hanging up my Twitter hat. I rarely update it anymore so I truly see not point of even having it around. So I'm thinking about putting an axe to it all together and go back to just blogging. Which I've not done much either since I've been insanely busy. So I ask you this ---

To Twit or not to Twit, that is the question. LOL!!!

NO AC

Since Friday night - we've had our windows open and our ac off! The weather has been perfect. Low 80's during the day and in the 60's at night. No humidity which make the 80 degrees perfect! Having the windows open and the air off has been wonderful! I wish it stayed like this all year long.

To the Beach!

We are now just going to the beach Thursday night and skipping the concert all together. No I didn't buy the tickets yet, so were not out anything. We talked it over and though it would be nice to see Montgomery Gentry, but we really weren't that excited about seeing them. Plus the fact we'd have to drive almost 2 hours helped us to decide to go directly to the beach. I can't WAIT!!!!!

It's Sunday Night...

...That means tomorrow is Monday, and the INSANE mess at work starts back up again. UGH!!!!!!! We had a good weekend, my party Friday night went well. I'm getting a lot of free jewelry...Free is always good. Yesterday we went to our local produce farm and picked our own peppers and tomatoes. That was a lot of fun. I was like a kid in a candy store. I love tomatoes and there is nothing better then a good ripe tomato during the summer....Yum! We brought dinner up to my Mom and Dad last night. We talked about our vacation to Hilton Head, SC in September. It is less then a month away now and everyone is looking forward to going away. I'm thrilled that I'm finally getting my parents out of Delaware and on a real vacation. This is our first small step to get them to go on a bigger vacation like a cruise. So we spent a good deal of the night looking at the place we rented and talking about things we wanted to do. I can't wait!!!! Today we crashed...We cleaned up a bit and took a well needed NAP. It was great! I love relaxing Sunday's!!! Now we are watching the Olympics and cheering for the USA to kick butt! I'm sad that this weekend is over...the weekends are never long enough, but I look forward to a short work week ahead. Thursday afternoon I cut out of work a bit early and head to a concert with Greg. Montgomery Gentry in Salisbury, MD. It's a bit of a hike for us, but the concerts there are GREAT! After the concert we'll head over to mom-mom's and spend the weekend with her. We'll relax, spend some time on the beach, hang out with friends and family and go out to dinner at one of my favorite places to eat Striper Bites. I can't wait!

Incompetent People

I have had it today, with incompetent people who do not know how to read or follow directions. I have spent two days holding the hands of many folks on my team about how to complete their financials. Mind you - many of them waited until the day it was due to work on them and of course all the questions came out. They made the financials much easier AND they gave step-by-step direction on how to complete them. AND still they don't get it! How can this be? I just don't understand, why people don't read and follow directions. Reading is not rocket science people. Why are people so lazy?
