Hello my buddies!  I hope you all have had a great weekend!!  There are so many blogs out there I want to respond to and I will, it always takes me a few days to catch up after the weekend.  After doing all my household stuff, tending to my folks and now my grandmother I dont have alot of down time.  But Mondays always bring back to routine and I will catch up with ya. *wink*

Speaking of grandmother, drum roll…SHE WON!!!  The sperm donor backed down and gave in!!!  He sucked it up and stopped his freeze out.  No, he did not say he was sorry, no he didnt even act like there was a problem but he finally came back and tended to her and helped her and even took her out to dinner….TWICE!!  In fact as he left last night he hugged her neck and told her he loved her.  I am SOOO proud of her for standing her ground.  I know it almost killed her but she did the right thing.  I did a little dance for her today (ok, it was my corny white girl dance) but she loved it and danced a little with me!  After 64 years of his life FINALLY someone got thru to him.  And for all of your prayers, good thoughts and wishes, I thank you!!!!

And of course she was in a GREAT mood!  My birthday is the 25th and Tom’s is the 1st so she wanted to know if she could take us to lunch today.  She said Chinese.  I never had a chance.  That is Tom’s fave food.  So off we went and let me tell ya buddies, I ate like a pig. And you know what?  I dont care.  I dont mind.  I had so much fun!  We laughed and for once since my grandfather died, we didnt cry.  We talked about him of course but we did it laughing.  And that made my entire day. We had SOOO much fun.  I have totally blown it today and I dont mind.  For the first time since Popie died I was able to leave their house seeing my grandmother smile and not cry.  It was great!

With our birthdays coming up, I know I’m not gonna be great on the scales.  We have dinners and cakes to endure.  I am throwing Tom a surprise party on the 31st.  And you know, I am not stressing over them.  If I only do as good as a maintain, I am fine with that.  I loving life, I am loving things just being ok.  And I am ok with that!!

For once in a long time I am seeing blue skies ahead of me.  Carolina gets her stitches out this week, no signs of infection and she is doing great herself.  So pardon me if I do more of my corny white chick dance.  Please dance with me, I wont make fun of you if you wont make fun of me!!  >-:-}
