Catching Up






Sorry for such a delay in my updating! It has been a crazy 10 days off!!!


So to start my days off my mom wanted to take me out to dinner to celebrate my birthday. I get to dinner (late like always) and my brother Nathan comes walking to the table. Nathan lives in Canada and it has been almost a year since I've seen him!! I was sooo excited!!!
So on my birthday we all went to WOF. It was Joey, Nathan, Amanda B., Christa, Jack, Jenn, Mellissa and me. It really meant a lot to me that everyone went! We all had a blast. Joey and I were the only ones who rode everything. Everyone rode things with us but we rode it all. I have noticed that the older I get the more wore out I get. By the end of the day I was tired, hungry and had a headache. However, it was completely worth it! The whole day it was partly cloudy and a bit muggy, but it was a perfect day. We decided we were going to ride one more ride, the detonator, and then the rain drops started coming down and soon they were coming faster and harder (thats what she said). So we skipped the last ride and scooted to the car. The picture is us taking cover from the rain for a small while until the rain slowed down. The only thing is... it never slowed down and we just had to suck it up. By the time I reached the car my toes were prunes because of all the water in my shoes. The day was PERFECT! It was going to be great but since Nathan was there it was even better.
Next came the 4th of July. In the morning Joey's dad had called and said we had better get up to the nursing home to see his grandmother Mary because she wasn't doing too well. She was on hospice and had took a turn for the worse. When we got there Joey told her we were there and she opened her eyes and looked at us but didn't keep them open long. We held her hands and brushed her hair for nearly 2 hours. She had strong pulses and was breathing 12 a minute. Joey and I both agreed that she was a fighter and would hold on for at least a couple more days. Joey told her we would be back that night and we both told her we loved her. She nodded her head when we told her we were leaving. We left and went to my sisters for a bit. Hoping for some good food we got there and found burnt cookies. Ok well, not all of them were burnt. She made hamburgers and hot dogs and we both ate and had some pop. I had been trying to avoid pop, you know just in case I was pregnant. But I thought, "Screw it, Im probably not and a pop sounds darn good!". Then we headed home and took a much needed nap, we have been pretty exhausted lately! When we woke up from our nap Joeys dad called and told us that Mary had passed away. They thought it was only appropriate because Mary was a stubborn Italian who was definately a firecracker! Needless to say it wasn't the best 4th I've ever had.
Alright, I know that you guys are wondering... pregnant or not. Well the answer is Im not sure. Hopefully I will know in about a week or so. My bodies so crazy I just don't know what to think. So stayed tuned!!
