Testing, one, two, three.

Did it really have to take that long?

It's late and I am tired. I just spent almost an hour and 45 minutes on the phone trying to get my card reader to work on my computer only to find they have to send me a new one. Now I am thankful they are sending me a new one but did it really need to take almost 2 hours to discover this????????

So I haven't been able to download photos since last Wednesday and I am a wee but frustrated with the computer needless to say. Sigh.

On the up side, got to go to dinner with some friends and it was nice. Hey, at least I got home early enough to spend the nearly 2 hours attempting to fix my computer.

Not sure I can wait however long it will be before the new part arrives...may have to go and get a card reader I can plug into my USB port tomorrow. Oh wait, I think I can download them on my laptop! Hmm, must try that tomorrow instead. It's late and I am tired...off to bed for me!

I can't believe it!

OMG!!! With just 3 minutes to spare I finished and ordered my 2009 and 2010 calendar. Yep, you did read that correctly. My 2009 book! I finished that puppy in just 2 days. I am in shock. I am so excited I don't know if I am going to be able to get to sleep. I had a free 8 x 8 book from Shutterfly and of course it had to be finished today. So I got this wacky idea in my head I would make my 2009 book because I had picked out and uploaded my favorite photos for a calendar that I didn't get to finsihed last week so I was going to get this one done no matter what. I actually ordered my 2009 book and haven't had time to upload and order my 2008 book! I am finally getting the hang of things again. Woo-hoo!

I did it!

I am so freaking excited I can hardly stand it. I just finished our 2008 book! Yes, I know, I am a year behind but I finished it. Well, almost. I still have to go back and proof each page but it is all there. Yippee! I am so very excited. Now I have to get started on 2009...maybe I can actually have that finished before 2011. Ha!

I am feeling a lot better but still don't have much of a voice. Yuck. Very hard when you have two little three year olds running around. I'll survive. But man I wish this would just go away for good. Vertigo is really not fun AT ALL! But at least I have something for the nausea so that hasn't been nearly as bad this time around.

Still so much I need to update here but am tired and heading to bed soon. I was just so excited I had to share it with someone!

Happy New Year!

I did it! I finished adding the photos for my Project 365 blog this evening. If I didn't feel so bad I would spend the next hour looking back over them but I feel terrible again and am heading to bed.

Nearly a three weeks now fighting vertigo and ear stuff. He told me this week if it doesn't clear up I will have to go to the ENT and probably have tubes put in my ears. I thought they only did that for children!

Can't believe it is 2010. So much to talk about and so little time. I'll be back though when I am feeling a bit better and can manage to keep my head from spinning.

My little guy

Yesterday morning Cameron decided to wake up at 6:40ish. Lovely. I had already taken a shower and was getting dressed but this is getting crazy. It seems the earlier I get up and get dressed the earlier they get up. Do they hear me getting ready or something since we move their rooms? Strange.

I did manage to take this cute video of Cameron though before M left for work. I am still amazed every time I look at them on film or in a video. They still look like little babies when I look at the each day but when I see them in something like this I realize just how big they really are getting!

I thought I was okay with it

Well, I met with the school yesterday and Noah got in the developmental preschool and Cameron didn't. Just as we thought would happen. I really, really thought I was okay with this and have found so many positive things about it. But all I can think of is my sweet little 3 year old getting on a bus all alone. No brother or mommy there. He has NEVER been away from all of us totally on his own. The reality of that didn't hit me until yesterday and now I can't get the picture out of my head. They have always had each other even if we weren't there.

And of course Cameron decided to be CRANKY this morning and I am very afraid this is what it will be like every day that Noah gets on the bus and he has to stay behind. He is the one who WANTS to go and do these things. So hard being a parent at times emotionally! I know I just have to find something to make our (Cameron) time special. But just the though of explaining this to them both before and during, is just painful for me. They both want what the other child will be getting. It makes me sad. I know it will be okay and they will adjust and this is for the best. I know all these things in my logical portion of my head. But my heart still aches for them both. And this morning when I dropped them off at "school" I had to tell their teachers and the director. That made it even more real. And the teachers were sad and said they were going to lose their "snuggle bug." And I keep thinking what is Cameron going to do during this adjustment time?

Oh, the thought of all this makes my head spin, or wait, is that the vertigo? To top all of this off I have an inner ear infection. No telling how long I have had this stupid thing but I know the last 4-5 days have been pretty miserable. I have lost nearly 5 pounds because of the nausea. I wanted to lose weight but not this way. I really just want the room to stop spinning and be able to walk without drifting. Ha!
