Slacker.....

I know I haven't Blogged in a long time...but I really haven't been feeling well. I did finally break down yesterday and went to the doctor.....It only took me passing out in the shower to call. The doctor thinks the Migraines are just from stress, but I haven't had a whole lot of stress..okay besides the whole we are buying our first house, closing in a week, and I haven't even started to pack. We have had quite a full house and that might be adding to my stress...lots of kids and lots of kids messes. The buying the house isn't very stressful to me but the moving thing..UGGG! To those of you who don't realize I have never left home..that's right people. I have lived in this house for 11 years and have acquired quite a bit of CRAP...When Michael and I got married we decided it would be better for us to stay living here until Michael graduated so we would have help with Kailye and so I could work with a bit less stress. Well now 3 1/2 years later we have lots of storage to go through..thus the reason for my stress.

We went to dinner on Friday night with the family. We went to Bucca De Beppo...I'm not sure I spelled that right. It was fitting that we were at an Italian restaurant. For those of you who are not aware of my families antics, you would be if we were within 50, no 100 yards of you. I describe us to people like this....Picture a BIG Italian family, throw in a little my big fat Greek wedding and you have my family. I love that we are loud and we have stories to tell for days about memories we have from growing up together, and that we all, for the most part have very similar personalities. If you saw...or heard..us all together you would think we were drunk...funny thing is we've been asked what we're drinking...and we don't drink. I come from a long line of over reactors also so you ad that to the end of every funny story and I promise you would not be bored in a night with my family. you might on the other hand be deaf....did I mention we are loud.

Okay this picture is not from Bucca but it is my crazy family.

Well back to the reason of passing out in the shower...I don't eat well when I'm sick or stressed. This is not convenient when you're hypoglycemic. So the doctor thinks that was the cause of my lovely experience. I am still not feeling good but better than I have in 2 weeks. Okay not true I was feeling better last Saturday when we went with the family to play mini-golf. It was very fun. I will have to post pictures after I steal them from the rest of the families blogs.

I sometimes like being sick so I have a break from real life...this wasn't necessarily one of those times but it did let me read. I love to read and haven't found any books that keep my attention well--stupid ADD--in few few months, until Bobbie told me about Twilight. Oh my...to any of you who hear "vampire love story" and automatically shoot it down, I am usually the same, I hate any thing unrealistic, I love human stories and human emotions. Stories that are historical fiction or historical non-fiction. But let me tell you I LOVED this series. I read all three books that are out in less than week. I have never read so much in that amount of time before in my life. (Staying up until 5 in the morning probably did not help with feeling sick.) I love being able to escape into a world that is not my own, and these books definitely do that. They were literally books that I could not put down. I can't wait until book 4 comes out next fall. Well I think that is a big enough blog for today and a little scatter brained. Peace.
