Starting Preschool

Lukas first day of school is the 27th of this month. My little boy is finally going to preschool school something i have wanted him to do since last year.  If i would have known he would have gotten into the program last year i would have done it.  I was going to send him to a christian preschool last year but it cost a $100 a month which i thought was reasonable, but the big man did not think so. So i sent him to a class for a few months so he could get an idea of what preschool would be about.  He liked it so I knew he will be fine in preschool.
Sending him to preschool does make me happy.  Happy that he will be learning from someone other than me, happy that he will be getting what he really needs help with.  Happy that he will be making friends that don't like 30 mins away.
Every parent is scared to send their kid off to school especially public school. I know for me their is a fear that the kids he meets might be a bad influence or he will get into problem.  He seems to be more of a follower like his Daddy so it kinda scares me that he will fit into the wrong crowd and do what he is not supposed to.  We will have to pray every day before school that he will make the right decisions and that the kids he meets will be the right fit for him.  He is going to be in crete monee school district probably not the best but for his age it's fine.
I am looking forward to the field trips and the parties.  The experiences and the memories he will be making at school.  He remembers a lot of things so i know he will remember school. I know I remember Kindergarten better than Pre k the fun things you did in school.  I will never forget the circus we put on. I was one of the announcers and since I had a loud mouth the teacher didn't have to give me the mic.  It was so much fun.

The only down side to him going to school would be me missing out on Bible study and moms group and other activities because i live so far away I would take me 45 mins to get to the meetings.  Since school starts at 8:30 and ends at 11:30 it wouldn't give me much time to do anything.  I have to drive 13 mins to his school so it is time consuming.

I love that i will be getting to spend more time with Jordan helping him grow and learn.  He is also easier to shop with so i can get things done. Jordan doesn't beg for things like Lukas.  It takes me twice as long to shop with Lukas due to him wanting stuff and having a fit. I can go for a nice walk with Jordan too, Lukas doesn't like going to walk for a long period of time.  It is sad o think of all the things I can get done with out him 2.5 hours is not enough time.

10 days till he starts school 10 days.

Not doing so good

You have no idea what someone is going through until you Really ask.. not just ask them how they are doing but ask them How are you really doing. Right now i am not doing so good and just need to get it out.  I'm i diseased or just not friendly.  I feel like i have mosquito spray on me all the time and repel people away.  I hate this i hate this feeling. I hate this feeling of loneliness the feeling of no one wanting to be around me.  Why does this keep happening.  I know everyone is busy with all that is going on in their lives. I feel like i don't know how to be a friend and never knew.  I have had so many different friends through out the years that were my best friend.  I think it all started when i was little..my best friend moved out of state and i didn't know how to deal with it no one explained it to me.  That is when it all started it was like i had to find that person like her and never did.

 I swear this is probably why i watch tv it gets my mind off of things... just like that i started Grimm and can't even remember what i was writing about.   Thinking is what triggers it thinking is what makes me think these things.  

You don't know what is going on with someone Until you really ask.  

Just think about that never time you see someone and you ask how are you doing?
A real friend would listen and want to really know how you are doing.
No one has ask me that for a long time now so it makes a person feel like no one really cares about you.

22 days in a few hours 21

Well I had a goal I wanted to meet before I went to Disney.. right now I haven't met any of that goal.  I swear things keep coming up.  I feel like I need to work out 6-8 hours a day just so i could make my goal.  I haven't been eating as much due to the sickness but i doubt i even lost anything.

Well less of that more of Disney.  It is so exciting to think we will be there in less than a month.  My baby will be there for the first time probably will be scared of all the characters.  We will go back.. who knows when?  A few months a few years.  We love going making memories with our little boy.. now boys.  It really is magical and with all the new stuff coming in i fell like a kid again.  I wish my mom could be there with us.  I don't know if she loved it as much as I do but i have a feeling she did.  She would go with my father and brother to visit his family down in Florida.  He loved his sister and his niece Traci so of course going to Florida was probably something they did often.  I think sometimes when we visited with my mother she thought of him.  She probably thought he would have loved this place and all the changes they have made. Magic Kingdom was always the place we went when we visited.    
    I know when we get there the first thing i want to do is see mickey.  That night we arrive we are heading to Magic Kingdom and i am giving mickey a big hug.  haha sad I know but it just brings back memories of my mom saying just walk up to him.  They didn't have lines like they have now.  You used to just walk up to any character but if you didn't jump up to meet them someone would just walk up to them.  I like the way they do it now were you have to wait in a line and not just a bunch of people standing around the character jumping in your picture.

  I planned everything with this trip.  Planning a Disney trip is something you need to do.  You just can't wing it.  Planning what park you have to go to where you want to eat, what you are going to do though out the day. I love to plan it and sad i did it so quickly this time.  I really need to get a job where i plan other peoples trips.  Where can i apply for a job like that????
  All i know is If you don't get reservations you might not get to eat at a place you want to eat at.  Or you have to wait Longer.  Only one place we had to wait a bit but it wasn't a horrible wait.  Our favorite place to eat in Disney is at EPCOT.. we love Coral Reef.. i don't like fish but they have something for everyone.  The best part you have an aquarium to look at while you eat. Sometimes people are taking a private scuba lesson while you are eating.  Our second fav place is Tutto Italia we love the Italian food there and the people there are great too.  It is a great atmosphere kinda romantic.  Something I always ask my hubby when we go is where do you want to eat.. he says i don't know i say well you have a few places you want to eat and those two plus plant hollywood are usually on his list but if not he is okay about it.  We love food not just food but Good food and Disney has great food.

The one thing we are excited about is our Son will be able to go on the coasters. SPlash mountain, thunder mountain.. tower of terror ( not too sure he will go on it though) I showed him the rides on youtube and he is looking forward to it.. i think his dad it more excited about that part than he is.  He will be able to experience new things the joys a growing.

The other thing that excites me about this trip is my birthday.. well not getting older but being in Disney while everyone says happy birthday to me because it is MY DAY.  Usually my husband works on my birthday so it's never anything special at all this time it will be. Everyone forgets my Birthday of course my mother was the only one who really remembered it and always did a little something special for me.  My birthday hasn't been a good birthday for a long time. This is the time that i miss her and those special things she did for me.  I also get to hear and see my favorite band Casting crowns and Chris Tomlin.  I know the other bands will be great too.

 WEll we count down the days... soon hours and minutes until we get on that plane.

Sick...what to do when your sick...why did i do it????

Haven't blogged in a month due to being sick for a month. Something my husband will never understand is how hard it is to take care of a house, kids and yourself when you are sick.  He didn't expect me to do much but he worked more than he usually does.  The man refuses to call off when I need help. He was not well himself. When you are sick you don't want to clean or cook you want to sleep and get better. Well thinking I was getting better from bronchitis I got a horrible sinus infection worse than I have ever had before. My husband gave my youngest  this infection who gave it to me and he got the bronchitis on top of it.  Always someone Sick in my house.  I stopped taking cinch from shaklee and got soo sick the vitamins and minerals in it must have helped me.

  I swear so much going on i don't even want to get into it.  Having blood work every week done and no results. It was good to hear that everything is fine with my ultrasound.  I had to take these tests so I could get on zoloft.  Their is more to this story but I don't want to get into it.   It is frustrating and I don't know what is going on.

On the other had I had to do something while I was sick.. of course sleep but I found this free audible for a the first book.. I debated what book do I get. I already had the hunger games and didn't finish the first book yet so I didn't want to get that one and had no clue what would be good.  Well I kept hearing about this 50 shades of Grey. Not knowing what the book was about I got it.. boy was I shocked at what this book was about.  Not sure why I got it..even wishing I didn't get it... but couldn't stop listening to it.  I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.. why oh why did I listen to this book.  Feeling like I need to wash my brain from what I just heard. Being so shocked at what was going on in this book. Why do so many people like this book. Why did I want to hear more of it. Not sure if I want to talk about this book with anyone just because of what was in it.  Any thoughts guys what do you think of this book?? Have you read it??  Would you read it?
