Its a good thing that I didn't break......


Gaia with one of the 30-50 fish that she caught at the beach. I have 100 beach pictures and finally blogspot is allowing me to upload them without me pulling my hair out about it! ;)

I am going to leave you guess about my title, but please keep my friend's daughter Alexis in your prayers. She fractured her leg and had surgery this afternoon to fix it, but she was airlifted to the Children's hospital an hour away from the local hospital. They have basically kept my friend in the dark about what is going on with her kid and didn't even tell her this was happening. The hospital is fucked up if you ask me.

Ok on to my title and the explanation of that. I'm sure if you regularly read this and you know me that it can't be a good thing, right? ;)

So yesterday at the pool, I was standing on the side and talking to a lady and her niece. We had been goofing off the whole time I was there. Trying to take a drunk-driving test, none of us past the standing on one foot and holding the other up! LOL Well her niece and I only past the touching your finger to your nose. hahaha

So Alexa said to me to come over to where she was. Well I was right near where she was and I went to take a step and stepped on the lifeguard float thingy, mind you I had known it was on the side of the pool, cause I put it there, but it had been move in the process of the day. So when I stepped on it, my foot slipped on it and it threw me backwards onto the concrete.


Luckily I knew I was going down, because if I didn't, it would've been my head that hit first and I was able to save myself from hitting that first. I hit my butt first and then fell back from there. I went down all the way, but stayed down for the simple fact my back hurt and I was embaressed at that moment more than anything....also thinking I was going to be told to stay still. LOL

The lady who was there with her niece asked me if anything hurt, I said my back. My back was hurting because of the fall and also I felt it scrape against the concrete, but the scraping was hurting more than my lower back. So Alexa yelled for the manager to come over, and I still had not got out of my mouth why my back was hurting and it was from the scraping and being in that same spot!

The lady was like here gently lift your head up and she was putting a towel under my head. Alexa was like no don't move and I finally said what was hurting and why. So I had to roll to my side so they could check my back, and yes its scraped on my left side a little, but not too badly.


So I got back up on my feet with no problems. My friend Dianne was down at the playground with her daughter Melody and she brought her in to see me, apparently she knew something had happened. Melody is so cute! She's 16 months old and just ugh so cute! She did make me feel better I tell you that much. ;) Everything to her is "ball" she called Alexa ball, I was like no thats Alexa say hi. She just waved and smiled at everyone and said ball and pool. ;)

So today my back is sore from yesterday, my lower back mostly. But its fine other than that. I went and swam today and had no problems at all. LOL ;)


So thats it.....later!

They can't be that messed up in the head!


This is from Pan Am Flight 103, but this post is about that.

I was only 7 years old when this happened and no I do not remember it, but I know about it. Pan Am Flight 103 crashed in Lockerbie, Scotland after a bomb was put into a suitcase and put on board. The bomb exploded and crashed killing all 259 on board and 11 on the ground. Most of the people on board were American. It remains one of the deadliest plane crashes in history.


One of the terrorist's that was convicted in 2001 is dying and is hoping to be released from prison. The guy got life in prison, but yet he could get out to spend his remaining days outside of his jail cell. If this guy was convicted in the US, he wouldn't be getting out to go home to spend his last days. A life sentence means you live in prison until the day you die. This guy gets out, he will have served a lousy 8 years in there.


This guy wants to be allowed to go home to Libya to live the rest of his days with his family. He doesn't deserve to get out! He intentionally planted that bomb on the plane and 270 innocent people lost their lives! I'm sure the families wanted that Christmas in 1988 with their loved ones that were killed that day.


Compassion-release my ass! That guy was suppose to spend the rest of his days in prison. Its messed up! Even more messed up is him getting to go home to Libya. HAH! Well at least in death, he will feel the pain of those he killed....

Beach Trip----Something happens every summer

We are home from Myrtle Beach! For some reason I can't upload pictures on here. =(


So last Saturday, my brother and niece came in for our beach trip. Saturday, Gaia and I went to the pool and she got to see one of her favorite lifeguard's, well 2 I otta say that day. :) Hahaha I dunno how many favorites she has! LOL


Sunday we took off for the beach. It was BLISTERING hot! No joke! So my mom told me I could go out at 3:00 without any sunblock, right I believed her and guess what?! I GOT BURNT! Yeah great way to start off my trip there.


Of course the trip there also had alot of drama and it was always my fault. I really didn't enjoy myself for that simple reason. One night, I didn't go out to dinner and such because of my mom being a bitch. First she said I was invited to dinner, but then as we were going out the door, that changed. That night, she also said some stuff that was completely out of line.


Gaia went to her over-night thing at the aquarium. She said she enjoyed it, but who knows with her. She made herself a bear at build a bear. I'd would say she had a good time. ;)


So on Sunday I got grazed by a jellyfish on my knee, which HURT! The theme down there was dead ocean life. I saw a total of 4 jellyfish, 2 sting rays, 1 eel, 1 crab dead and 2 jellyfish alive in 2 kids bucket! LOL Lovely right?! ;)


So weather wise it was great, it cooled off after Wednesday and we had storms and rain. Friday it was like we left right in time cause of the bad weather. Typical beach weather, oh I swam in the pool till I saw lightning one day! hehehe


So we came back yesterday and I was ready to get back to the diving board at the pool. =o) So Gaia, my brother and I took off for the pool. Of course my brother didn't come in right away. But also didn't stay too long. Gaia met a little friend down there and they were playing with the torpedo and such. :) Then out of nowhere it started pouring down rain for like 30 minutes! I literally ran back and forth taking something to Gaia and got told not to run, but its like I am wet already, but still! LOL


So my brother left soon after it stopped raining and so it was Gaia and I in the pool, with one family and then later a group of people came up. So Gaia always wants to push me under the water and we were in the 4ft and I was like (jokingly) to the lifeguard, help! I mean Gaia was on top of my shoulders and wrapped her legs around my waist. But I was kidding when I said that and so to get her off I went under water.


So when Gaia got off me, she went over my head and I was coming up at the same time she leaped over and she kicked me smack dab in the face, my nose specifically. I got up and for like a few seconds I couldn't breath and the lifeguard asked if I was ok, but I couldn't answer cause of that. Well the next thing I hear-see is her coming in. I think that was the biggest shock there for me, but yeah.


This whole time Gaia is swimming along her merry way and I was like I want out of here, just let me get to a ladder, ya know. My nose wasn't bleeding, but it hurt. Then the manager yelled at Gaia to get out of the pool and I was like wait a second she can swim still and I can sit out, but she made her get out for I guess kicking me, I dunno but she made her sit out for 7 minutes, which turned into about 20 minutes of pouting! LOL It was pathetic! LOL The manager was trying to make her laugh, but eventually she got over it.


So today the brat told me before we left the house she wanted to stay till 6 and then go see my friend's cat. Well she wanted to leave after an hour or something like that. I was like are you for real, I was like no we aren't going. So I told her she could sit at the table until I was ready or I call home. Of course she started crying cause of that. Its like get over it! She threw a big fit! I grabbed her towel away to get her to look at me when I was talking, which caused her to fall over into the chair. (which she changed that story) So I called home and was like come get her, I wasn't dealing with it any longer.


Of course I got the blame for her state and its like the shit she said wasn't true. Its like ask her in a few hours, she'll change the story. Of course its the LIES she'll go and tell her mom. I am sick of it. She does this on her last day every time she comes, just so she can go and tell her mom the BAD of it. GOD I HATE IT!


So to top this off, no one told me they were going to eat dinner in town and left without telling me and so I am sitting here in my room not caring about it. My whole family can kiss my butt.


I'm off here. TTYL!

Happy 28th Rachel!!!


Just a quick note.

This morning I got a message on Facebook from Rachel's sister about attending Rachel's birthday party and I was thinking the past few days that her birthday was coming up and today would've been Rachel's 28th birthday.


Its so hard to believe for me that it has been 10 years that has past since Columbine and graduating from High School. Rachel continues to touch people's lives today.


Happy Birthday Rachel! Hope you are having a party up there in Heaven. Watch over your family as they go the mountains this weekend, keep them safe. :)

One week from today!!!


One week from today, I will be located at the picture on the left hand side of this text! I CAN NOT WAIT FOR IT!!!!!!!

So this weekend was boring. I am happy to say that my friend; Anna; is doing better. She is one of the many out there that have been struck down with H1N1 flu virus. Amanda did go see Rent for all of us though, so thank you for that Amanda! :) I can't wait to hear about it, cause I have YET to hear from her! LOL

So this weekend in NC it rained on and off Friday till today. Well yesterday it got nice in the afternoon and I drove down to the pool, and found no cars in the parking lot and turned around and came home. (No Joke) They were open, as I found out later, but lol minus 2 umbrellas being up, it didn't look like it. Oh well, don't even bother asking what I did yesterday either other than trying to get into Prisoner of Azkaban. No way, minus a miracle, will I have it done before we go to the beach. LOL

Oh so we are the family that NEVER gets anything or wins anything. Well we had a coupon from Stein Mart and my dad scratched it off and we had a 50% total purchase $300 and under. Well the moron wasn't suppose to scratch it off, but lucky us they gave us the discount. LOL We did make use of that coupon! LOL We got the one 50% off coupon that they gave out! So what were the chances?! LOL

Oh I have my parents talked into doing this.....we're going out to Phoenix to go see Kristi Yamaguchi Friends & Family this fall!!!!!!!! :) NO JOKE! I am so fricken excited too because the Backstreet Boys are performing also!!!!!!! WOOHOO!!!!!!! My dad was like I don't want to see her skate, she probably can't! I was like, yeah dad she's just a World and Olympic Champion for no good reason! :rolls eyes: October 23, 2009 I will be there!!!!!!! Woohoo! Plus I've never been to Phoenix....


So thats it. I can't wait for the beach this coming Sunday! Later!
