New Skin! Autumn!

It’s really simple, but I made a new layout. I’m really looking foward to fall, but since I live in south Texas we don’t get to enjoy the trees changing colors, SO, I made this layout. The top image changes. I really like it .

Back to school tomorrow. I love it, don’t get me wrong, but I’m not looking foward to sleeping only 5-6 hours tonight. Blah.

Spent yesterday just lying on the couch reading Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. Got more than half-way through. Can’t wait to finish it!

Today we went to Peter Piper Pizza, where the kids acted up a little, but we had a nice time anyway.

I’m 30 minutes late in starting dinner, so I guess this’ll be all for now.

Need Some Change

I just realized I desperately need a new layout. Although I love this one, autumn’s definetly on it’s way, and I need a more “fall” layout. Not that we south Texans actually know what an actual ‘autumn’ is .

The only problem is, I have no inspiration whatsoever. I want more earthy tones, I know that, but I’m not sure what I want the concept of the layout to be. We’ll see.

I’d also love to switch to WordPress soon, but I’m still scared of messing up my skins and heaven knows I don’t have enough time to sit down and actually work on anything online these days. That really sucks. No matter how “early” I get everything done that I need to get done, I never have time to work on my site or anything. I never thought I’d say it, but sometimes I miss planting my big butt for hours in front of the computer .

I hope Eenan’s doing ok. I’m still having trouble with him in the mornings. He’ll get up just fine at home, it’s him actually wanting to stay there when I drop him off that’s the problem.

When I dropped him off this morning, he ran after me when I was about to reach the car, which was across the parking lot. He had tears in his eyes and he kept squealing, “Stay with me!”. Broke my heart to bits to see him that way. My mind keeps wandering off, thinking about him and wondering if he’s ok. Angela arrived right when I walked him back to the hallway, thank goodness. She and her friend told me maybe he didn’t like being at school since there was a boy who swung him from his jacket a few days ago. They said they told the teacher and he hasn’t done it since, but I can see how that would discourage Eenan from liking school. It angers me and just makes me feel so bad that someone did that to him. I need to sit him down and talk to him about the situation. I knew there had to be a reason why he didn’t want to be at school. .

Almost time to go home. Gotta stop by and visit Mario real quick at work since he forgot something. Then I can go home. Romeo lent me a prep CD for our Microsoft Certification Exam–hopefully I’ll get some time to download it and study a bit. It’s cool because it gives you the right/wrong answer automatically.

Strange Feelings

Please, please everyone, take some time to pray for Becca and her new baby daughter, Addie. I can’t even begin to imagine what she and her family must be going through right now. My thoughts and prayers are with them. I haven’t been able to stop thinking about them all day .

I’ve had this strange feeling of…guilt? concern? I’m really not sure what, but I’ve been feeling weird all day. I’ve felt a bit lethargic the past few days and I don’t even know why. I don’t feel sick. I didn’t even go to Annie’s sister’s wedding because I’ve just felt drained of all my energy (Mario says sleeping only 6 hours a night is quickly catching up with me). It didn’t help that the boys have just been in foul moods today either. They’re a bit better now, but goodness they won’t stop fighting!

I also spoke to Mom and she sounded so sad. Her situation would be so much easier if she would just speak up for herself. She needs to understand that I can’t do everything for her all the time, as much as I’d like to. I just hope everything falls into place for her, for us. I don’t know.

I had a dream that I was pregnant last night. There could be a few reasons I had that dream:

1) I was thinking of Yadira (who I don’t think I’ve mentioned is PREGNANT!! FINALLY!! I’m so happy for them !).
2) I was thinking of Becca and wondering if she’d had Addie yet.
3) Brushka is pregnant, and we’d been feeling her baby(ies?) move.
4) I’ve run out of birth control pills and don’t know when I’ll be going back to Mexico for some *bites nails*.

In the dream John had his hand on my HUGE belly and was trying to feel for a kick. Everytime he moved his hand, she’d kick. When he’d put it back, she’d stop. It was weird because some people were saying “he” yet I knew that it was a “she”. When I woke up, I had that same feeling I did when I found out I was pregnant with Eenan. There’s no possible way I can be pregnant right now though, because it’s uh, that time of the month . I wonder what it means?

I finally got my own cell phone and we got it for free! Mario added my number to his account and they gave us the phone + 1 month of free internet. I’ve been going crazy dowloading ring tones thanks to Joe and Jennifer, who are friends from school. I also got a program, Pix2Fone where we can make our own wallpapers. I made one with a picture of the kids, which pops up whenever a call from the house is made. I love it. It only allows JPG format for now, but it’s cool anyway.

Mario just bought a Samsung PDA off of Jorge, which he was going to trade with me for my Samsung V1660, but I think I’ll just keep my phone. The PDA looks too…big? I wonder when we’re gonna get our Blackberry from school? We’re supposed to get it after our first grading period, which we already had.

Blah. I feel like I’m getting a darn cough. Mario’s finally home so I’m gonna be lazy on the couch with him. I fall asleep so quickly on the couch, wrapped in his arms .

Hopefully tomorrow will be a better day.
