The Livy Updater

*Note…this was intended to be posted yesterday but blogger wasn’t working correctly last night so I’m posting it tonight:) *

Well I’m so glad today is just about done. We’ve had a very busy day and a good day. This morning before Terry got home, I took a shower, and did my hair and makeup and then started to make breakfast for him. Then I went in and got Livy up and changed her and we went out together to see what Santa brought her. She was a good girl for a 2 year old and so I know she was excited. She did go to bed at 7:30pm last night so around 9 pm I went ahead and put the Santa things under the Tree. She was so overly joyed to see what she got. She loves unwrapping presents and she was so funny. I only wish that my camcorder battery didn’t die. I guess I’ll have to go get another one because this one is almost 5 years old and it’s just about time. Well I hope everyone got what they asked for..I know that I did:)

Well Santa brought Livy a Nice Stuffed Reindeer, Candyland, A Ballerina Barbie and an umbrella. She got lots of clothes from mommy and daddy and a Snuggle Bean Cabbage Patch Kid. She also got Chutes and Ladders, some books and lots of goodies in her stocking. I got Terry the season 2 DVD Set of NCIS, Spiderman 2 and a few other things. I got from Terry & Livy, some items from Old Navy, Undies from Victoria Secret, A book: Star Craving Mad by Elise Miller and a New game for my Gameboy Advance.

After we got done opening gifts I went over to my parents house to start opening gifts. It took several hours to do so because as soon as we were almost done my Aunt and Uncle came over. Well Livy got several nice clothing from The Children’s Place (one of our fave stores), Several books, Spill the Beans Game, A Newborn Cabbage Patch Kid, A Sing A Long Microphone (thanks Aunt Liz) and a few other things. I got exactly what I wanted!!! I got some money from my parents, Aunt Jeanie & Uncle Jeff and from my Grandparents (Thank you All!), Natalie Grant: Awaken CD, a very nice watch, a very nice charm for my necklace, and best of all….an iPOD NANO 4GB Blue in color!!!! Just what I wanted!!! Terry also got several nice things included a 3 month subscription to Netflix from my parents (Thank You!!!) Afterwards we had about an hour to rest and then it was time for dinner. Ham, Greenbean Cassarole, smashed potatos with the skin, and rolls. Well I better be going to put Livy to bed…she’s exhaused and her movie is almost over! Merry Christmas Everyone!!!

Well today is Friday and it’s only a few more days until Christmas!! We still don’t know if Terry is off on Christmas Eve or not so until we do find out we have to plan around that. If he is off Sunday then we’ll go over to his parents that morning and stay for lunch and dinner and open gifts with the other family. If he isn’t off then Livy and I will probably still go over that day and still be able to open gifts or we’ll wait until theres another day that Terry’s off to do it. And with our little family we’ll open our presents we got for each other and Livy that morning when Terry gets home from work. It’ll be fun though! I just wish some people weren’t so selfish and saying one thing that we all know isn’t true. Like the Sgt Major told the Sgt that Terry told him he would work Christmas Day for him so that he would have both days off. Terry did not tell him this but the Sgt can’t tell the Sgt Major he’s incorrect about this and he has to work. I mean I’m still pretty hot over this! Can you tell?

Well today I was supposed to go meet Robin for lunch but she cancelled on me. So I will be going into town alone I guess. I am meeting Angela my old Director for Mary Kay to sell her several things that I will obviously not be using anymore. I need to get them out of my house!! Thank you Angela for purchasing these items. Well I have some extra things to get for Christmas and will be getting some today and some tomorrow. Tonight for dinner is going to be Sloppy Joes. Mmmm…Tasty!!! Last night for dinner we went out to LoneStar in Rocky Mount and had an excellent dinner.

I’m thinking that tomorrow I’m going to be doing a few things around the house, baking cookies, chocolate chip cookies in fact and making some peppermint bark for Christmas gifts. I can’t wait either. Merry Christmas and Happy Holiday’s to everyone!

For those of you who might not know…I have been having trouble with my blood sugar dropping and or going higher than expected. Well I am the complete freebie queen and if I can get a freebie then I will sign up for one. Well about 3 weeks ago I signed up for a OneTouch Ultra2 Blood Glucose Meter to get for free. I was kind of hesitant in signing up for it because I wasn’t sure it it would come or not. Well I went ahead and signed up to get 2 for our house and 1 for my parents house in case of an emergency. Well I went ahead and took my blood after my meal and it was an 86mg/gl which is not too bad, but I also didn’t have any carbs with my dinner either, it was all meat. Well if you are looking for a new meter for either a family member or yourself go to OneTouch and fill out the information their looking for. Their great to have in case of an emergency for someone!!!

Well Terry told me just a few minutes ago that he was very proud of me for passing my class. I didn’t like the class and also didn’t like the teacher (if your not there to help your class then don’t teach!) but I hung in there and passed. Tonight when I got home from work I was planning on having leftovers from last night’s dinner but Terry ate the rest and didn’t ask me when he talked to me earlier. Oh well, I had to improvise instead. Livy had Dino Chicken Nuggets and I had some beef tips from Sunday’s lunch. It was good but I don’t care too much for beef tips in the first place. Livy is currently in the bathtub as I right this but it’s in the next room over and I can hear everything she’s doing. I’m sure she’s swimming and of course she’s singing and I’m sure my walls have water all over them. I need to go over them with a glossy finish instead so they become waterproof from a 2 year old. Well I better go get her out of the tub before she turns into a prune!
