Good night..

I'm tired.. beat up..sore.. wore out and ready for bed.. All that is left to do is make the coffee for morning and sit out Jackson's breakfast. Yesterday at the lake really took its toll on me. I had a great time but it was more of a work out than I have had in a long time! Funny.. Scott said his legs were sore today too!

So today was a pretty decent day.. Pretty uneventful to say the least. I took my time getting up and motivated to work around here. But I did get a lot of the laundry done ( still got a little waiting on me to finish ).. got most of the house picked up and some how managed a trip to the grocery in! But every step I took felt like a hundred steps. By time Scott got home at 830 I was ready for a hot bath and bed.. But we sat around and watched ~ The Social Network ~ again.. It was nice just having him here. On long days I always end up missing him before he gets home. I did finally get my bubble bath.. I was hoping it would wake me up and make me feel a little better but it nothing of the such...I still feel wore out and tired. I think I actually felt better last night at this time than I do now. Sure hoping a good nights rest will help.

I don't know what my deal is but I have sure been missing my grandparents the last week or so. I think its summer that brings all those memories flowing through my head. We did so many things in the summer as a family.. We camped.. We traveled. Played.. and I guess I feel more grateful now that I am older for all those good memories. I keep replaying them in my head. I remember specific times and events that seem to stand out more than others. Brittany is always asking about my brother Jeremy who died when I was 19. Some days I can talk about it great.. other days its harder.. and talking about my grandfather always seems to bring tears to my eyes.. no matter what memory I am thinking about. Just like the picture above.. I told him that I would never forget him. For his love and loyalty is in my heart and spirit forever. Nothing can take that away.. not even death. But I have to go on.. here on earth without the many people that I have loved and lost.

You know I was reading online about elephants today.. Sounds silly but I was.. and this is what I read..

"Elephants have been known to die of broken hearts if a mate dies. They refuse to eat and will lay down, shedding tears until they starve to death. They refuse all human help."

How powerful is that? The love their families as much as we do. The power of love is amazing!!!

Tomorrow.. Hell.. I guess tomorrow is already here for me.. Its 1241 am..Scott is suppose to be off today but he is going in for a while tomorrow then I think we are going swimming in the afternoon. Its suppose to be the hottest day yet here. I think the temp itself is going to be about 100 and the heat index is suppose to be 110. Looks like the right day for the pool however with my banged up knee.. I don't know how good I am going to look but o well..  Jackson also wants to see if he can fry an egg in the street tomorrow too! So that's on tomorrows list too!

We are trying to plan everything to see Scott's daughter Laura too. I think we are meeting them in Gatlinburg in mid August for a weekend and then come back here for as long as they can stay. This summer has been really busy so far and its going to continue right into fall. I think we also might be taking a Christmas Cruise this year too. I think it would be great to celebrate Christmas in the tropics. Mom is doing all the planning for the cruise so not sure its firm or not. We were suppose to go in the end of September but Don got notice that he is to be in Malaysia during that time.. So we are trying for December! I love cruises and I think it would be perfect for winter!

I really wanted to get the damn junk drawer in the kitchen cleaned out today. I have been putting it off for a while but its so full that we can barley shut it. I wonder how many people have junk drawers in their kitchens? I might just have to do the post and link it up to any of you guys who want to go along and clean out that junk drawer in your home with me. I also have another toothpaste post that I want to link up too! I think it would be so fun for you guys participate in both these post! So when I can.. I will work on getting them up! I also got a question tag from a fellow blogger than I plan on getting done in the next few days too. I think a lot of bloggers are seeing this tag right now and I thought it would be great to play along! As you noticed I got a few more post up today than expected.. I just was wore out and took it as easy as possible today.. I just took the time!

I have a girlfriend that is going through an incredibly hard time in her relationship right now. I hate it.. I texted her on and off all day. There is very little anyone can do for someone in pain from a heart break. I just tried being there for her. I hope this blows over with them and everything works out. I feel kinda bad because Scott and I seem to be doing really good now my friends are having the hard time. Everybody hurts the same and heart break is the worse. So sending my love and prayers to them and hopefully they will be back in each others arms in no time.

ohhhh.. I forgot to tell you guys that today

The kittens turned 2 months old!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I got some pictures that I will get posted tomorrow!! I love those babies so much! I feel so blessed to have them here. There is no describing how happy all of the cats have made me feel.. ♥

Well I am off to bed..

Sweet Dreams to all you guys..
