A very good friend of the family passed today. Her name was Judy and she was like a surrogate grandmother to my sisters and I. We spent many childhood Christmas' oohing and aahing over the beautiful Lee Family Christmas tree. We also spent hours on end picking out scrolls of music that required pedal power to enjoy on the player piano. She was a talented artist, and her artwork speaks for itself. The door was always open at the Lee house. Her kindness and love were endless. We will miss you, Judy Lee.

nervous
if you are friends with Justine and worried about her.... go tonationofsheep and read his entries
Justine's water did not break. She has a high leak but the cervix is still plugged and long and closed. The leak made her think that her water had completely broken. While this is good news, it also means that a particular protocol will be followed. So she is now bedridden in the hospital on a cocktail of drugs with IV's and crazy stuff like that. The goal is a minimum of 33 weeks. We are at 29 weeks and 4 days. So in the best case scenario, Lucy stays in Justine for the next 3.5 weeks or more. But this means that Justine is IN THE HOSPITAL until she gives birth. So I just left her there. The sum of it is: large doses of antibiotics in IV to keep infection away, magnesium sulphate to stop any progression of contractions, steroids to jumpstart lung development, bedrest, 24/7 observation and a giant ambian to go to sleep.
So six years ago, they made us turn off our cell phones and certainly there were no computers in the hospital. But now we can use our cell phones and they have wireless internet. So I will bring Justine's laptop to her in the morning or whenever I get my tired ass up. And then she will be online in the hospital surely filling everyone in on the daily details of it all.
This is only the second night in Iggy's life that he has been away from her. I'm not too worried about that tonight. But he's going to be away from her for some time now. I will take him to the hospital to see her tomorrow. And we are going to be doing our best to get through this period of time. So I am going to be super stupid busy. I start a new job next week and that will have me away from Iggy more of the day. Add this to that and it's a fairly rough time for him. He's super resilient and I am super attentive most of the time. But this is a fairly tough task I have ahead of me.
And oh yeah. I don't know Justine's password to post this in her account and I know there are a lot of worried people on Justine's list. So if a few of you could point people that are on Justine's list to this entry like </em></a></b></em></a>banshee,</em></a></b></em></a>buscemi, </em></a></b></em></a>stabby_lyd, </em></a></b></em></a>squirrly. You might have a lot on your lists that I don't have on mine. That's all for now. I read a lot of your support on Justine's entry. Thanks so much.

sad
Gromit jumped the fence 3 times yesterday. He used to do this, but we thought he was cured. FAT CHANCE. So, I am seriously thinking about giving him to the man down the street. I refuse to pay the shitload of cash to get him registered with the FDA only to have him run away as soon as we get to the UK. I would be sad and out a shitload of $. He is such a good dog and Dixie will be so sad, but I just can't do it anymore. I start to get weepy just thinking about it. DAMN DOG.

cranky
Well, I am so blah today. I had a crappy night . Ian went to bed around 9pm (after eating his dinner AND a 6 oz bottle!) and I fell asleep around 11pm. Ian decided to wake up at 11:30pm and I was completely out of it...thanks to the tylynol pm! I couldn't figure out what the problem was, so in complete confusion and desperation I just put him in his crib and went back to bed. There was no way he could have been hungry! He cried, wailed, screamed and I tried to go back to sleep. I woke up and thought I had been dozing for 10 minutes, but it was 1:30am and he was STILL CRYING!!!!!!!!!! Or maybe he had stopped and started again. I don't know, but I gave him a bottle and he fell asleep in my arms and we slept until 7am. I feel bad, but damn I was tired. He hasn't learned to hold a grudge yet, so no harm done. BAD MOMMY!
I need to wash the sofa covers today. such a pain, but needs to be done before the yard sale.
aaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrggggggggggggggggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Don't mistake the following as a pity party. It has been 6 months since I popped a kid out of my va-jay-jay (thank you Oprah...or was it Tyra?) I probably gained 60lbs during my pregnancy and I was already putting on the pounds before I got knocked up. Just to give you an idea....I was a size 6 when I met and fell in love with my wonderful husband March of 2004. I was popping out of my size 10's a month before I was sperminated (November 2006). Exactly 6 months post baby, I am a size 14. I understand that it takes time to loose the baby weight, 'give yourself some time', BLAH BLAH BLAH. I have been stagnant and lazy and I am sick of being a size 14. I am disgusted with my laziness. I am in one word....UNHEALTHY. I don't eat fast food....maybe once every 3 weeks...maybe. BUT...I do eat bread, cheese, chocolate, wine, more wine, more bread, butter, cookies, cokes. I am pretty good a limiting myself to all of the previous cottage cheese contributors.
SO.......I have been inspired by Dr. Gillian McKeith on BBC America's YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT. She is a rather unattractive, Scottish lady in her late 40s/early 50s. She is a nutritionist and her guidelines appear to work miracles on the folks in her show. In almost every episode the person(s) who follow her strict regiment of fresh fruits, veggies, fish, legumes, beans, gluten free, dairy free diet lost up to 30 ponds in 8 WEEKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I went to Barnes and noble and picked up 2 of her books and began her 'diet' this evening. My goal is to lose weight. I would like to be a size 8 by november, a size 10 will be okay. Hopefully, I will be able to stick to it. Her recipes require planning and lots of chopping.
Most days you start with warm water, tea, fruit, oats with rice milk, veggies for a snack, salad for lunch, veggies for a snack, and veggies with chicken or fish for dinner, and warm water before bed. She is also a firm believer in fruit smoothies for breakfast. If you really want more details, buy the books!
I will be boring you (hopefully everyday) for the next 8 weeks with a food diary and/or how I am progressing. This is mostly for my own benefit, but your encouraging comments are definitely welcome. I will spare you the photos of my lovely stretchmark covered belly or my fat arse. Maybe some of you chubby chasers are sad about that. Well, I better go drink my warm water.
DAY ONE (I started this diet at 8pm tonight)
1 cup 5 grain cheerios
1/2 cup fat free milk
1 banana
2 bottles of water
3 fried chicken strips
3 small beef ribs
4oz fried potatos
2 hot wings
3oz cocacola
dinner was the start of diet food
poached chicken breast in ginger miso
served on a bed of bok choy, red peppers and bean sprouts
1 bottle of water
1 cup of warm water
So, everything i had for breakfast and lunch will no longer be allowed. oh well, it was shit food anyway!
I also need to chew my food longer....Dr McKeith always says that " YOUR STOMACH DOESN"T HAVE TEETH! CHEW YOUR FOOD PROPERLY!"
Wish me luck biatches.

So, we are officially moving to the UK in May. Ben will go in April and try to find us a place to live while he starts work. We have given our move out notice for February 29th. We will have a yard sale the last weekend in February. We will be selling everything...couches/chairs/clothes/book
s/cds/dvds/lamps/junk. Then, we will move to Ft worth. Ian and I....sometimes daddy when he isn't offshore.....will live with my mom and dad until May. That will be an adventure. SO, I have a list a thousand miles long to plough through. Between UK visa paperwork and getting the dogs to the vet, and full time mommy duty....I barely know my head from my asshole.
I will post more later.
