one moment at a time

Life is complicated. Not overly hard. Just some things that shouldn't be so hard are. And at times, i find myself just wanting to curl up and sleep through them. I know i can't. There are too many people that rely on me. But wouldn't it be wonderful? I mean, seriously, to just curl up and go to sleep, and when you wake up the world is a better place and nothing at all is hard? I am such a dreamer, because that sounds wonderful to me.

today has been one of those days where I had the best of intentions, and all kinds of plans, but just couldn't get them done. Between feeling sick, letting myself get overwhelmed, and not being able to find the motivation to get up and do it, barely anything got done. And on top of it, just to spite me, Ivy came home with a note from school saying they did a head search and found nits in her hair. SOOO, we have to treat her hair and get all the nits out before she can go back to school. And i don't want her to have to miss tomorrow, so we are busting ass to get it done tonight. I hope we can get it done and they let her back, cause she's been such a trouper about going to school even when she's sick, it would suck if her perfect attendance was fucked up by the god damn headlice. HOPEFULLY the lice treatment we got today works and we won't have to mess with anything else. It got raveing reviews, so hopefully it doesn't fall short. I guess we will find out in a bit when their hair dries. It's supposed to kill them on contact, even the eggs, and then just brush them out (or pik them out with the nit comb later). No washing, no having to sit with horrible pesticides on their hair for 10 or more minutes. I just hope i can find the time to get it all out in time for tomorrow. And i'm gonna be nervous as hell in the morning to go in and have them check her hair over. If they find something and send her back home, i will be SOO upset. BLAH.

SOO, tomorrow we will start the day with getting her hair checked, and she will either get to stay or have to come home. If she comes home, she comes home. I mean, it won't be the end of the world, just annoying. So if she does, we will pick through her hair again to be sure we get EVERYTHING, and then try again on Monday. Either way though, we are gonna clean and organize the house because of my family coming in. They are gonna be here about 3:30-4:00 (at best. Usually they are late) and i'm not sure what we are gonna do. I am kinda excited to see them though. It's been a few months, and i need my mama. :)

We may not always get along. And i know i'm not the person they had hoped i would be. But i like to think that we have gotten past that. WE avoid certain topics that we know upset each other. We have learned to keep the peace. You know, as far as religions go, theirs is a bit crazy, but it is the one they believe. And it's like i've said before: I don't care what you believe in. I just care that you have something to believe. So they have the right to believe whatever they want. I have my own beliefs. I know what i have faith in. And that's all that should really matter, right? Whatever though.

I think i'm gonna sign off here again and get to work on dinner, and cleaning, and combing out Ivy's hair some more. That stuff works GREAT! And the comb that comes with it is crazy good. I will definently recommend that to anybody who fights with that. I've been fighting these damn bugs for a long time now, and i think we might have finally found something that will work. That makes me feel so very happy :) i can't even put it into words. So yeah. Gotta get it done. LATERS
