Holy crap..

Man it has been a long time again! I am sorry to keep my fans awaiting..(yeah right..lol). I have heard some of you thought that I might have dropped off the face of the earth so I figured I better update! Sometimes I WISH I had dropped off the face of the earth but alas, I am alive and kicking (and screaming and stressing etc etc.)

Sooooooo let's see?? Where the hell do I begin? Well the biggest thing is our kitchen reno from hell. Actually a place worse than hell which we have now realized is called Home Depot. What a freaking JOKE that place is. I am not going to lie and say I will never go there again after all this crap has been completed cause I know I will. They have cool shit sometimes. BUT I will NEVER EVER work on a project as important and expensive as a kitchen. NEVER!

I have no time nor the energy nor the physical capacity to type all the crap out but let's put it this way.. I have not had a kitchen sink since the beginning of May and I will most likely not have a kitchen sink until the beginning or middle of August! Need I say more? I am sick of doing our dishes in the bathtub or the bathroom sink. I am tired of eating on paper plates. Home Depot has screwed up our order in so many ways.

The actual installation of cabinets is now complete thanks to an amazing man (yeah you think I am talking about Cliff right?? LOL) my good ole cousin Mikey. The man is a freaking genius. Don't get me wrong Cliff has worked his ass off too but for technical knowledge..Mikey is KING! We always knew he did good work...we have seen it in his own house but to actually see the dude in action and with the grace and ease that he does this work...amazing. I wish I had an ounce of talent that he has! I also cannot forget to thank Lisiane (his wife to be..someday maybe) for her help with counter selections and colors. She rocks and the colors are perfect. Even thought Mikey says they are pink..they are not.

Due to all Hell Depot's errors we are now delayed until August for our counters. We have complained and complained and complained. No one heeded our complaints so I went to the big dood. Or I tried anyway. I was intercepted. BUT I really came down on the assistant store manager with a letter listing all our problems chronologically. They have spoken with the Devil himself and they will be giving us a discount very shortly.

What else?? Kids are doing awesome! They are getting so big! Liam has passed his yellow belt now in karate. He is taking a break now for the summer and has started soccer. He is not really into that yet. He prefers to take the dramatic falling down approach everytime someone comes near him. OR he does grass angels. What he REALLY enjoys doing is playing baseball! When he comes into contact with the ball he can freaking nail them and he has a great throw! So next year it will be that. He was too young this summer. He also had his "graduation" at the daycare and is starting Kindergarten at the end of August! Yikes!

Emma is well...Emma. She smiles all day long and has most people fall in love with her on first sight. She is full of vim and vinegar as one of the parishoner's at church says. She is taking to swimming lots this summer so far and she will most likley be a beautiful mermaid by the end! Liam is doing great in that department too!

Cliff is doing great too! Got a new position a few months ago at his company with a big raise and the union has just finished their contract negotiations so it will be going up again shortly! Health wise he is well. On Tuesday it will be 5 years since his transplant. On Wednesday he will be going for his big check up. So I will let you all know how it goes!

As for me..well...my hands/wrists are screwed again. Hoping to have surgery soon but the Dr. is being a pain in the ass at the moment. He cannot believe that his first surgery was not a success so is making me try everything under the sun first. So far nothing he has prescribed or recommended has worked. Work is the same shit different day. Hoping to get a nice raise in the next few months but I am not holding my breath either.

The pets are doing well. Walker is growing up to be a very gentle dog. He chews alot of crap but not the kids so that is good. LOL. Bella is also very tolerant of the child beating she gets but takes it like a trooper.

Baby Lolo is doing well. She will be 8 months in 10 days!! Hard to believe! I have not seen her in awhile but her Mommy and Daddy keep in touch weekly and we hope to see them soon!

That is it in a nutshell!
