Guest post written by my buddy Aldo Mays

My little sister just got married, and I worry about her. Her husband’s job requires a lot of traveling, so she is alone a lot. She calls me upset all the time, and she hates spending so much time alone. I only live a few hours away, so sometimes she comes and stays with me on the weekends, but during the week she is still in that big house all by her lonesome. I know her husband is a good guy, but sometimes I just feel angry at him for being away so much. I know it’s a requirement of his job, but it’s hard for me to see my sister struggle. My heart breaks for her every time she calls upset. I went over to their place a few weeks ago to keep her company and we went to Atlantahomesecurity.com to get an alarm connected. Her husband was the person who suggested it, so I was glad that he is at least showing he cares and wants her to feel safe. I hope that the alarm does the trick and that she doesn’t feel scared to be home alone anymore.

Guest post of the week by Deangelo Spencer

Real estate has always been my passion but ever since I was young I knew I wanted to be an agent AND something else. I wasn’t sure exactly what but when I hit my early 20s I decided it was a developer – I wanted to buy and flip houses for profit, and it was that simple. Anyway, I love that there are so many options in this business as well as tons of ways to make money and to lose it, too. I actually have a little home officeset up in the second bedroom with XO small business and a great computer and a second phone line so I can operate BOTH my small businesses out of my home. I love selling houses and working with families to find a home but my real passion is renovation and that’s where I think I shine the most. I have an eye for that kind of stuff and hopefully when the market picks back up it will be easier to make money!

We went to Maddy’s T-ball game last night.  The weather was a little chilly and it seems as though it was going to rain.  The clouds were grayish blue and still looked beautiful even though the impending rain was to come.  We get there and they start to play and everyone was yelling and screaming for their child.

After we left there, we went to Bike Night at the Harley Dealership that they have every year around this time. There were quite a number of people there and BIG surprise that I knew most of them.  Now, I am FAR from bragging about knowing so many people.  It seems when you grow up in what I consider a ‘small city’, you tend to be known by everyone in some aspect of your lifetime.  Some is through school, some if through hanging out at your favorite spots when you were younger, some through your job, and even some that you previously dated and want to forget about.  Either way, they know you or you know them.  In most cases, you don’t even remember their name and for good reason.  I always told me husband, “If I don’t introduce you to someone it’s either because I don’t remember their name OR they are not worth knowing.”  And both hold true to that statement when someone runs up to me wanting to ‘chat’.

Now chatting is the essence of trying to catch up with someone’s life in a total of about MAYBE 5-10 minutes then moving on.  When you are approached, you obviously don’t really want to hear about them considering you didn’t approach them.  Some you are very excited to learn about them, others….not so much.  Here I go rambling but I am sure by now you get my drift.  Moving on to the story…heh.  It’s the A.D.D. I SWEAR!

Where was I…..Oh yes, so we get to the Harley shop and see many people that I know and do not care to know. It is very difficult to be mean to someone that is staring you in the face, plus when you have your child with you it seems to soften the blow of being a mean spirited bitch that you REALLY would rather be.  You say your hellos, do your hugs and go on your marry little way.

We ended up staying way too long than anticipated, but all in all it was a decent night.  Now let’s see how I can find people to befriend……

Current Mood: Mischievous

It’s almost Easter time & with Easter comes candy.  I have to admit I have a weakness…a TERRIBLE weakness.  Years ago, I found out that I have an obsession with Peeks.  Oh yeah, the marshmellow is AWESOME and being they have them in SO many flavors and shapes makes it so much fun even though it use to bother me eating the ears off the bunnies.  Yeah, Imma dork like that.

Well, here recently, I have found another obsession while working at my new job.  Cadbury Mini Eggs.  THEY ARE THE DEBIL.  I believe the milk chocolate is so smooth it makes it irresistible.  I felt the need to share to spread the words to TRY THEM hahahah

The beginning of the week, I decided to attempt to put little man on whole milk.  When he was 5 months old, we put him on organic milk due to him getting sick off of whole milk.  Sick as in projectile vomiting and severe diarrhea.  Well, I figured since he is now 2 he could possibly be over it by now.  Well, at day care is the only time he drinks milk in the mornings.  No, I don’t give him milk at home, don’t judge me.  Well, he started with the loose diapers.  Well, at 12:20 am Wednesday night, I had a shower of projectile vomit once again.  It got on me and the bed but not dad OF COURSE.  Well, we stripped the bed, got him bathed, got me bathed fixed the bed and went back to bed.

The next day when I took him to daycare, I explained to them that what he was doing and explained that I felt it was the change over to the milk and not to give him any for that day.  At 4:00, the daycare called and explained that he had the 3rd loose diaper they allow before having the kids go home.  I explained to her and she mentioned the stomach virus going around about every daycare.  She basically told me in a nice way not to bring him to daycare today.

With in a 2 hour span, he had 4 liquid diapers.  Yeah, I believe he has the virus.  Needless to say I am sitting here blogging while he is sleeping.  I may even get some house work done today.  Yeah, I have a lot to do in the house……maybe…heh

Here is a good song for you to enjoy!

We have been looking at our bills and decided we needed to downgrade some things if not do away with them.  With having a child, MANY things are not as important or needed as they were previous when you didn’t have to worry about another person.  Well, I contacted Direct TV and found out they had a deal going to be only $34.99 for a year and I am able to get the same channels I am getting now with Dish and I’m paying over $100.00 with dish.  I do know, however, in a year it changes but it gives us enough time to see what we want to do in a year.  We decided to have everything ready prior to they get here so they will not be here long.

The hubby use to work for the cable company so he was familiar with all the details such as the network cables, and the HDMI cable.  We were able to get everything provided by Dish unplugged and moved to make way for the Direct stuff.  Everything was in place and ready for the installer.  The installer came and STILL took a LONG time to install the work.  The installers are sub contractors for the companies and I don’t believe there is a lot that is used in determining if you can do it….lol  When we finally got everything said and done we started looking at possibly getting another TV.  We went to Panasonic.com and found one that would not fit in the house but isn’t it great to dream???  hahaha

I’ve decided I want to blog more. Rather than just thinking about doing it, I’m starting right now. I will be posting on this blog once a day / once a week for all of 2011.

I know it won’t be easy, but it might be fun, inspiring, awesome and wonderful. Therefore I’m promising to make use of The DailyPost, and the community of other bloggers with similiar goals, to help me along the way, including asking for help when I need it and encouraging others when I can.

If you already read my blog, I hope you’ll encourage me with comments and likes, and good will along the way.

Signed,
HotRodMom

With the bout of RSV when he was 2 months, I literally freak out everytime he gets a fever, or having issues with sickness.  I know it’s wrong to think about it at every high fever, but after going through something as terrible and bad as this, or so I felt, it’s a very much a problem for me. 

He has been sick since Sunday, fluctuating between 100 & 102.9.  I have a normal Temp of 99-100 SO growing up it was very difficult for me to stay in daycare when if I had a slight fever from teething or whatnot my temp was anywhere from 100-101.  I apparently am having the same issues with LiL Man.  If he has a slight fever from teething, it’s not the normal 100, it’s 101-102.  Now I have been told recently that teething does not cause increase in fever.  So, that makes me MORE worried because before I had an excuse or reasoning to make me feel a LITTLE bit better about what was going on.  Now, I’m not so sure.

I called the Dr.  Of course, he is booked today (because he’s an AWESOME Dr) and he told me to alternate meds with him to see if his fever breaks.  What’s so intriguing yet so expected about my son is he is not your normal sized child.  No, he’s not fat or obese or anything of that nature.  He is just a big child.  Perfect example would be what the Nurse said today when she called me back.  The Dr admited that I was probably not giving him enough Medication due to his age instead of his size.  And I would have to agree since the last thing I wanted to do is OD my child.  So they up’d his Tylenol & Ibuprophen back and forth tonight until his appointment tomorrow.  Funny thing is, the med dosage that he gave me based off of his weight in October is for a 4-5 yr old….HAHAHAHA  Yes, I have a big child, and it’s going to cause me problems.  I say that ONLY because I will not be giving him enough medicine as I should hehehehe

I’m off to figure how to make my stuff for my Dirty Santa Party tomorrow.  Until then, keep your babies diapers clean
