It's Me & I'm back but not sure for how long...

Well, I am sorry I have not been around much but hubby had off for his vacation from work from Feb. 3 thru Feb. 13. So during this time we all have been packing because we thought we were going to have to be out by the 6th of Feb. But luckily enough we didn't have to get out by than. But we do have most of the stuff packed up and in a Mobile Storage POD.

SO, during this time that we have been packing and getting stuff ready we got visited by a Local TV station to talk about foreclosures on homes but I was really disappointed at the angle they went with the story and we only got to talk like maybe 20 seconds at the most and it was nothing really what I said or what I wanted to be said. But least to say we were on TV.

Than during this time while Rob was on vacation we were visited by a Realtor for the mortgage company. He was really nice and very pleasant to talk too. He is going to try to help us get as much time as he can with staying here because he seen that there are several people here that are disabled and really unable to get out that fast. The main one is me. So, he said he is going to see what he can do for us and is suppose to contact us this coming week sometime. So, keep us in your prayers that they are not going to force us out and all because if so I am going to fight them until they get an eviction notice on me to get out.

Also, while Rob was on vacation I had a very severe nose bleed. This was one of many that I have been having lately. But this one was the WORST of them all. My nose bleed for over 1 hour and it was coming out so fast and out both nostrils that I was getting choked feeling because it was backing into my throat. I tried everything from ice packs, the silver knife in the middle of your back and to pinching your nose off and tilting it back. Nothing worked at all and I went through 1 whole roll of toilet paper, 2 bath wash clothes, and 2 ice packs. And it finally stopped after 1 hour of bleeding. I was really scared and my mom and Rob thought that they were going to have to call the ambulance because it was not stopping. After that happen I got really weak and had severe pains in my head afterwards. My real dad said that it is good that I bleed because I could have had a stroke or heart attack.

So, what else has been going on. LOL! There has been so much. My real dad and his girlfriedn(Wife) are having a hard time and fighting and I think she is trying to push my dad away from her. See she has a brain tumor and is not all there and thinks my dad is no good at times and goes through these spells and all. So, I don't know what my dad is going to do next. I don't know if he is going to stay with her or if he is going to leave so he has been hanging around my house a lot lately. Matter of fact he just left again for the 2nd time today. He was here early this morning for over 3 hours and than he left to go to a friend's house to help him out and than he come back by here and was here for another hour or so and just now leaving here at 5:35p eastern time. LOL!

Rob is finally back to work and I am missing him because I really do enjoy having him around me because he helps me out so much and can keep me calm when I get upset or mad or what have you. He can always cheer me up when I am down. I just wish we had so much money we didn't have to have him work. Because it would be so nice to have him home all the time. But I know that will NEVER happen in my life time. LOL!

I hope everyone had a great Valentine's Day yesterday. My mom and stepfather got me a purple plush bear (little) & a box of chocolate candy (which I didn't need) but that was so nice of them. I was not expecting it and I just started crying and crying. I have a very soft heart and emotions right now. I was upset because I was not able to get them anything in return. SO, Rob went to Walmart and got some Mix Candy Bears and I split them up with my mom, stepfather and uncle and did them a good bag up for Valentine's Day and I made Homemade cards as well with Pink Ribbon I had here. It was cute but it was the thought that counts I guess. I didn't have much money to get everyone something separate so I just did it that way. It cost Rob maybe $5 for all three but at least it was from my heart. Rob got me a Teddy Bear that has the year on the foot from Walmart and that was really sweet. He always does that every year. I didn't get to get him anything at all but I did up a bag of candy and card for him so that is what I got him but actually he bought it. But it was from my heart though.

Well, I guess I will let you all go for now and thanks for taking the time to read all this and appreciate all the wonderful comments and thoughts on everything so please keep them coming in and please by all means email me at anytime you want. I will try to get to you as soon as I can okay. Take care and talk to you all soon. God bless and many hugs and love, KAT :OD

Update on Stepmom -- What happen last night & today!



Well, most of you know by now my stepmom has had to have 3 tumors removed from her throat/thyroid area. Well, last night I was talking with my dad and he said that he had to take my stepmom to the doctor's today because her throat area on her neck was swelling up. And it looked like there was blood filling up in there. She tried to take a picture and send it to me. I hope I can get it posted on here.. Well, it post above instead of down here. LOL! But anyway you can see what I am talking about. Well, she went to the doctor today and he said that this is normal because it is the only place the blood can go is down there. I am WHAT how is that? I just don't understand it. She has to go back on Friday or one day this next week. I can't remember what may dad told me today. The reason I was not remembering is because there has been so much going on here today. Sorry picture is not that great but thought I would show you what she sent to me.

My uncle had to go the VA for his renal and diabetes check up. They have changed him all up on his medicines again and so now I have to help him out more with that and we have to record his readings for his diabetes again. This is so much a pain in the butt sometimes. He just turned 61 yrs old and he lives with us and I have to help him out with his medicines because if not he will not either take them or he will take too much. He did that once last week and we had to call the ambulance on him because his blood sugar dropped and went below 40. Where it is suppose to be at least 90 or 120. So, they had to give him a lot of candy, juice and gel sugar and it still only brought it back up to 72. He was like almost into a coma state. So, we have to keep an eye on him at all times. I think he maybe getting Dementia or Alzheimer's. I don't know but that is what I think is going to be happening. His mother had Dementia and was getting Alzheimer's herself before she passed away. So, it could be but I will watch him and take care of him the best that me and my mom know how too.
Well, I guess I will go for now and get ready to spend a little time with my hubby for a change after he gets out of the shower. He stinks so bad that I made he get into the shower because he has been working on cars all day and stinks like grease and oils. Thanks again for taking the time to read and I will talk to you soon. God bless and many hugs, support, prayers and lots of love, KAT :OD

Friday's Update on Stepmom

Well, I got a call this morning around 9:30am from my dad. They were letting my stepmom out of the hospital at that time. Than they had to go to the pharmacy because they have her on an antibiotics to make sure that she don't get an infection. So, that is really good on that. I am so happy she is getting to come home today but really I feel they should have kept her longer that was major surgery. But you know how doctors and hospitals are now days and plus there are more infections in the hospital than anyone know. Believe me you I know that first hand. Over 7 yrs ago I got MRSA from being in the hospital and almost died. So, I believe that if you don't really need to be in the hospital than don't go and stay. LOL!

I will be back later on and update you more on me and what is going on with me today. I am not really feeling too well and getting a really slow start on everything. LOL! Thanks again for taking the time to read this. You all be good and have a very blessed Friday!! Many hugs and love, KAT :OD

Update on Stepmom!!!


Thank you all very much for being the Guardian Angels that you are, because I just got the call from my dad and my stepmother is out of the surgery and in her own room resting. Everything went well the doctor said they took out the 3 tumors and they just have to wait and see if it is cancerous or not. That may take up to 2 weeks to find out. My stepmother will be able to come home tomorrow sometime if everything goes right for the next 24 hours. So, keep the prayers coming.

My dad said she can talk a little bit much it is like a whisper right now. He didn't tell me how bad she was cut and if anything was disfigured because he sounded like he was very tired or he may have been asleep. But who knows I am just very thankful that she is doing okay. Thank you all for everything. You all have been very great to me during all this.

If I hear anything else I will be sure to update you all. Thanks again for everything and you all have a great and blessed night. I will be signing off for a while because this blog got me upset because I have been trying to get this header on here for over 2 hours and it was not allowing me. I guess they were having issues because I was not able to add a post for the past 30 minutes on here. LOL! SO, maybe that was what was wrong with why I couldn't post the header but now I got it on there until I can get a new template.

Do you all know of any place I can get a new template from or do you all know how to do the template? Just wondering because I would love to learn how to do them. Thanks a million!!! Many hugs and support, love and prayers, KAT :OD
