Parents Moving....

Well mom called me today at 12:30 stating they are moving to Norfolk. I guess I was sort of surprised when I heard her those words. Oh well I am sad to see them go but they are only 6 hours away not like Heather 30 plus hours away. I am going to miss them like crazy and I guess just knowing they are right up the road from me. I took that for granted now it is gone. I haven't really seen mom a lot over the past few months with her school and working schedule. I am happy for them they like the ocean now they are right beside it and of course now I have a vacation spot!!!!

Type 2 Diabetes

I knew it was coming since I was told about 5 years ago I have PCOS. That is a part of PCOS is being insulin resistant and diabetes. So it wasn't a real shell shocker today when my doctor told me that and put me on medication. But with diet and exercise I can go off the meds once I have it under control. I have been sort of trying to put it out of my mind but couldn't anymore so I went on to the doctor. I worry about Jasmine too so I am calling to make her an appointment to be checked as well. So my journey has started today with changing my eating habits and exercise. To me it is a blessing so I can live longer and see my kids grow up and have kids. (later on way down the road) Going to get rx filled and start them today too. I worry about something happening to me and leaving my family. I don't how Jasmine would take it if anything ever happened to me so I have her to think about. Donnovan would miss me who else would pick on him like I do and give me a hard time about things. Only me in my special way. Well I just wanted to share and am looking forward to my new life.

Oh yeah by the way Donnovan is going to the dr too and see about his blood pressure and cholesterol. We both need to start living right and do what is right for our bodies.

So that is all for today since I haven't posted in a few weeks thought it was about time I did.

Updates

It has been a while since I did my last post so here it goes. Donnovan's grandmother passed away on Valentine's Day so we have been spending more time with his mom. Which I have enjoyed a lot. She seems to be in better spirits when she has company around her. We took her to the race trax this past weekend she had a great time. Not much else going on just the norm I guess work and home life cleaning and cooking and such. We have had some awesome weather for the past few days and the weekend was amazing. Oh yea Shea turned 18 March 4th. We took her out to eat and of all places for her to choose Denny's go figure that. Ever place we went to was packed of course it being a Saturday night. But I thought it was really good. Just don't ever get a Cherry Cherry Limeade. NASTY Yuck!!!
So we have the kids this weekend. I have got to go pick up a few more things to eat on but other than that I am done grocery shopping. Well me and Donnovan are going on the Atkins diet starting Monday so I will need to pick up a few things for us to eat on. I am excited to see if Donnovan will stick to it he should he loves to eat meat and that is what Atkins is all about me on the other hand no a real meat eater. So I eat a lot of chicken. Red meat I can do without. So I will keep my blog updated on our progress.
I don't ever get to see my mom she works and goes to school and her hours are crazy. She told me she has applied for a job out in Salt Lake City. I will be sad if she leaves but I know she needs to work and that will make her happy being out there with Heather, Amy, and Matthew. Our family used to be close but we aren't anymore and haven't been for a while now. It used to bother me a lot since I don't have anything to do with "father's" side of the family. But oh well life goes on and change is always going to happen whether it is good or bad. I wish them luck on their new journey.
