HOLA

I know, I know...long time no post!

Well, I have been in Mazatlan for the last week. Oh my gosh, did I need it! I left Phoenix on Friday, May 23 and drove down to my friend Jackie's house in Tucson. We left Tucson that evening and arrived in Mazatlan on Saturday afternoon. On Sunday afternoon, Steve arrived! It has been the best week. Steve left on Wednesday and Jackie and I head home tomorrow. :( WAHHHHH!!
I just checked my grades from my class that I finished on Monday -- 100%!!! YAY ME!!!
My MySpace has some pix from our glorious vacation. Can't seem to download any to the blog right now.

Manic Monday

I so need a vacation!

Okay, so let's start with Friday night. Left work and went to get Alex. I got to the airport and they told me gate A7. So off I went. He was due in at 7:41pm. At 7:20pm, a plane arrives and I get so excited. But, after a few minutes I find out that the plane is from Detroit, not Las Vegas. Grrrr... So, where will my son come in? I go to the monitors and they only have departure information. I then go to the Customer Service counter where I ask all the people in line if I can cut in front of them because I can't find my son. They are all very nice and let me go ahead. The lady tells me that he is still coming in at gate A7 and I tell her "I don't think so." So she says "If you are still panicky in 10 minutes, come back." PANICKY?? WTF??? He's due in at the gate in 15 minutes and you tell me to come back if I am still PANICKY? Okay, whatever. I sit at gate A7 when Alex sends me a text message. I ask if he is at a gate and he says YES, where are you? He is at gate A30, which is a long ways from gate A7. I ran, in heels, all the way to gate A19 where they met me. But it was so good to see him.
We then went to Walmart and bought a few things, then went home. David had just come home from his Promotion Dance. I guess he had a great time. It is like the prom for 8th graders since they go on to high school in the Fall. I have a high-schooler!!!!!
Alex had to get introduced to our new birdie, who by the way is now named Galadriel. We think it is a girl! But here she is loving on Alex.
Saturday was full of fun at the Honeywell Spring Picnic. We went to Big Surf in Tempe and had a blast. I also did Alex's hair on Saturday and we baked our cake. It was a good day.
Sunday was rough. It started good with lunch at the Olive Garden. But I think I am either allergic to something or I got a touch of food poisoning again because I was sick for the rest of the afternoon. After lunch though, we went home and hung out in the pool. I helped Alex pack up and we watched a bit of TV. Then I had to take Alex to the airport. WAAAHHH!! We upgraded him to first class, which he was very excited about. I cried on the way home. I miss him a lot and wish he was still here.
Anyway, it looks like we will be going to Mexico. Just need to find someone to watch my house, pets, and 14 year old. Any takers? LOL

Feeling angry

I have had a massive migraine today. Feeling a bit angry and down - especially since Saturday night.
Steve's stupid bitch of an ex-wife Debbie called screaming at him at about 10:30pm on Saturday. She was screaming about how Arynn told her that he was going to take her to court and if he got custody she would make sure that he had to piss in a cup for the rest of his life. He was in bed and I was standing by the bathroom and I could hear her! I finally told him to hangup on her so he did. Then she called back so I answered the phone. She asked to talk to Steve and I told her "no" so she asked again and I told her "no" again. Then she started screaming at ME. So I hung up on her. Then she called back again and Steve answered. He told her to calm down because he wasn't going to talk to her while she was behaving so irrationally. She wouldn't stop so he hung up on her again. She didn't call back after that. Arynn called a bit ago and I was going to talk to her until she told David that she wasn't allowed to come down here this summer. At that point I wasn't going to talk to her. Steve is still at work and I called him to tell him to call her. It makes me so mad because Debbie drinks a lot! And she is never home. And she has threatened both kids, telling them that she wishes they were never born. She spanks them, and Arynn told David that Debbie punched her on Saturday. Arynn has also been bit by her dog twice and Debbie doesn't get rid of the dog. At least she did take Arynn to the ER both times. But I mean COME ON!!! Steve doesn't drink, he doesn't do drugs - if he did he wouldn't have the job he has! And he doesn't smack the kids around like she does! I told Steve that if I had my way I would be calling CPS on the bitch because I am really sick of it all!
I am also feeling really bummed about not being able to go to Mazatlan for the one year anniversary of my daddy's death. I wanted to buy tickets when the total cost would have been $800 for the 2 of us. Now it is over $1200. This was important to me but Steve wouldn't confirm with me, only tell me "We'll talk about it later." Well, later was too late.
Okay, well my head is killing me and I just want to go to bed.

Love to all!
