Cancun!!!

So, our passports have come in the mail. Dennis already had his, but needed to get it renewed. Poor guy. We thought they would send the old one back with the new one…he lost all those stamps from all over the world :-( I feel bad, but now he has an excuse to take me :-)

I just got a whole new bag of clothes that he ordered for me online to go. SO CUTE! Body Central was having a sale and I couldn’t give up adorable dresses for like $16! Literally! And the clothes (usually) fit me! Mom has to do SOME altering, but not nearly as bad as it used to be. Of course that may have something to do with my extra 12 pounds as well!

So, I was just curious if you guys had any tips on places that we have to make sure we do….anyone???

Catching up

Well it’s been a while so I guess I have some catching up to do. Especially since some random person in Maine accused me of some sort of disability fraud! Ha!

I’ve been released to go back to work. I just can’t drive. So when I’m feeling a little better I’ll be looking for a desk job. Maybe part time. I’m not sure yet. I love the purse stuff so if I could get a few people under me and become a director…that would be ideal. I have 2 parties scheduled for the last week of September and even one scheduled for the beginning of October! I’m learning a lot while doing it. Most parties you go to they make you listen to them for like an hour. I’ve been observing and after about 15 minutes you start to lose them. So, I’ve adjusted the way I do my parties and I let the guests decide if I’m going to do a full presentation, a simple one or somewhere in the middle. It seems to work a lot better especially with large groups. I got myself a business certificate to make it more official. Like I said, I really love this!

I had my first PT session and I found out I need therapy weekly. I always assumed concussions were no big deal…and then I got not one but 2! I will never second guess a person with a concussion again!

I haven’t started OT yet and I’m not quite sure how that’s going to go, but since they took me off all the meds but one, I feel a lot better! I don’t feel myself stuttering or shaking nearly as much. Don’t get me wrong, I still do…but not anything like before. AND I haven’t had a seizure in almost a week!

Oh and my boss fired me. He said he terminated my position bc of a lack of communication between myself and my doctor with him. Yeah well HIPAA requires my doctor NOT to communicate with him. But whatever. I was really unhappy there anyway. I was making crap for money and the owner cares more about the color of the walls in the office than he does his employees. I mean that literally. He really doesn’t care about people as people. They are all dollar signs to him. Luckily for me, I never have to worry about it again!

The pups are doing great. When they first met I thought for sure they’d be less than friends. Now they sleep together every night! And when they don’t think we’re looking they even snuggle :-)

Probably the best thing that is going on is that we have like 64 days before we leave for Cancun! Do you think it’s too early to start packing? Too bad…already did :-) I can’t wait. I’ve never been. Dennis of course has, but then again he’s been everywhere….twice. Lol

I had my annual family camping trip and I’ll admit I was more than nervous. My brother and I had only seen each other once since January and that was when I was in the hospital and I’m pretty sure we had spoken like once. I was VERY nervous, but it went really well. The kids really took to Dennis as did the rest of the family. Trenton even said he likes hugging him more than “Uncle Kevin” bc he always felt like he was going to get squished. Or something like that. Dennis told me that and I about died laughing!

As for Kevin….he’s finally out of my life for good. You would think that he would cross my mind here an there….nope. It’s very liberating to go from having to wonder and worry about what your significant other is doing. I never really thought I would be able to trust again. Truth is…I’ve never trusted someone more than I trust Dennis!

I think that’s about all for now. Dennis is up showering and I think I’m going to crochet a little bit before dinner.
