Really Spring already? I'm sorry i love the winter way too much. 

Today has been a really good day!

Billy had a couple of appointments for his wheelchair today.

ADVICE FOR THE DAY: Don't get a Invacare wheelchair, the biggest piece of crap EVER!

Billy got this chair April 29th 2011, [yes! i remember the date] by the next week we were already having problems. 

Almost 3 years later. lets make a list of everything that is wrong

• Foot straps
• head rest
• Both side laterals are gone
• arm rest won't stay on
• joy stick has a recall

                                                                      Should I go on...

I can't count how many times i have fought with our wheelchair company & insurance to get repairs.

it's ridiculous! 

OSU was amazing today and Dr. Kim really listened to us and took notes on each thing.

Thursday, we have another appointment with them and someone from our wheelchair company will be having a meeting with us & Dr. Kim to get everything figured. 

Wish they would just do away with this chair completely and set Billy up in a brand new one. 

But, the insurance says every 5 years :( 

Earlier tonight i had a girls night with one of my best friends and we roamed Columbus and relaxed by the river. 

Of course we had to take pictures 

Soo without further ado...

Beautiful Columbus

we got amused with this light :)

Jessica Lynn!

didn't realize there was a dead fish to my left :[

Love her

I collected hub caps in my younger years. Here recently I was strolling my wheelchair down Fifth Avenue in the short north area of Columbus, Ohio. Those who are familiar with the area would tell you that Fifth Avenue is a rather busy road. As I was rolling down the sidewalk of the road, along came one of the nicest Mercedes Benz's I had ever seen. It was bright white with tented windows, what appeared to be twenty-plus inch rims, a great interior, it was nice and shiny, and it appeared to be brand new. Well, as it rolled past me, one of those fancy hub caps fell off of one of the tires and landed against the curb on the side of the road. The driver of the car just kept on zooming forward. I stayed around for a while to see if she would come back to look for it so that I could point out where it was for her. After about five minutes passed, she still hadn't come back to retrieve it. I didn't think much of it and just proceeded to go about my day. After I got a little ways down the road I thought wow, this is a lot like life. Often times we get hung up on loss, or set backs, or things that seem to just fall apart. But like this driver, don't let small things hold you up and keep you from getting where you're trying to go in life. If you have a dream and something seems to be holding you back from it, just keep moving forward. Keep fighting to live another day and keep rolling on. You are preordained to achieve greatness, and the more you believe it the more set backs you will overcome. - Billy George

Chapter 3 of 12

IT'S MARCH!!!!

Which means, we are getting older.

My birthday is on the 27th & Billy's is the 14th

I can't believe I'll be 25 TWENTY FIVE!!!! 

Can i cry now?

   I'll admit I'm a scared to get older, I mean look how fast the days, months, & even the years go by. 

I wish God invented a pause button for him. 

We could be limited to how many pauses we get. 

Good idea right?? Well, its never going to happen :(

                       Anyways 

    This past week has been a pain in my butt!! 

I've have never been so stressed out in my life.

 But, I'm happy to say its all coming to an end. 

HOPEFULLY! by Monday *fingers crossed*

Here's whats going on:

Billy did a writing job for this guy he met online & this is a paying job.

Well, Billy finished the paper, we received the check, & we go to cash it, well Billy's ID is expired so we couldn't cash it at a check cashing place. 

Billy decided to sign to over to me and i would put it in my account at the bank. So i did!

 That was the worst mistake...

The guy sent us a fraud check! 

& now my bank account is FROZEN for maybe up to 2 months.

 How am I suppose to live? 

 This all happened on a Thursday which is pay day for me & I received my taxes in the bank.

They took it ALL!! 

Not a penny was left. i ended up owning the bank money all because this stupid idiot decided to write a fraud check.

My Blood was seriously boiling.

Now! The Storm is starting to come to an end, THANK GOD!

As soon as my account became open again i closed that sucker in a heart beat & opened a new one. 

I'm not going to take chances of that guy getting a hold of my account somehow.

 Right now, I'm just trying to get everything put back together.

Columbus, is expected to get 6 to 10+ inches of snow tonight and all day tomorrow. 

Everyone around the Indiana/ Ohio areas please be safe.

XOXO

Throwback Thursday!

#PrayersforJennyNicole

  Ive mentioned in one of my post about my best friend Jenny who has been diagnosed with thyroid cancer last month and recently had surgery to remove her thyroid completely. 

Well, last week she began radioactive iodine, which is basically raidation & today she is having a full body scan to see if the cancer is gone and did not spread anywhere else in her body.

I'm just asking everyone to please pray for Jenny today. She's having a hard time grabbing a hold of everything. It has hit everyone hard & fast. 

 

Thanks xoxo

Waffle House post

Sitting here at Waffle House till it's time for me to head to work. I have to visit my Momma :)

 I'm really procrastinating today!

Set my alarm to 10am 

Probably hit the snooze button 8 times

Mornings are so rough for me.

Today I have to do so much laundry! 

Billy's laundry piles up so quick it's ridiculous. Sometimes I think these nurses just throw clean towels or clothes in the dirty laundry just because. 

At Billy's apartment complex they have quarter washers & dryers. 

So were spending 20 dollars every week. it's a bit crazy.

really can't wait to we get a place together. 

i want it to happen right this second but, there is a lot of things we have to get together first.

 Jeez Louise!!

 My eye is absolutely killing me today. 

Yesterday i got into a fight with my mascara & the brush stabbed me in my eye.

All yesterday i thought it was an eyelash or something. 

This morning woke up and its still there. 

so i investigated 

My eye ball is scratched. 

Love is in the Air....

Valentine's Day really didn't go as i planned. 

Yesterday i worked basically 3 shifts. the aide for one of my clients called off and i bet you can guess who took her place? ME, so i worked her shift, my shift, & was called into my mother's work to help them out with their Valentine's Day dinner and i don't even work there.  Let me explain, My Mom works as a waitress at Waffle House. Past 3 years on Valentine's Day they fancy up the restaurant and people make reservations for a special dinner. it's pretty nice!

Well, they were short on help, so the manager said "Wilma, Call your daughter were desperate" a ring a ding ding and i was in. Working there last night really made me realize how much i miss waitressing. 

A Couple years ago i worked at a Italian Restaurant, I Loved it. But, I was suffering horribly with my panic attacks and anxiety. 

A Lot of people don't understand that Panic Attacks just pop up out of nowhere, you could be in the happiest mood and then you feel like you have been hit by a semi. Don't get me wrong some panic attacks do come on if you over think things or if you are stressed out. While waiting on customers i would  get the worst attacks and they would come out of the blue, 3 or 4 times a night. Never did i panic at that job, i never felt overwhelmed. I Loved it. I had my regular customers everyday.  After 6 months i had to quit that job, I just couldn't bare that feeling every night. 

So it was amazing working last night at Waffle House, I made my mom proud. They call me "Little Wilma" :) This is probably the only time anybody will ever here me say this but, I am just like my mother.

Ekkk that's scaryyy

At the end of the night, i was happy i made some money but I didn't get to spend the whole day with My Valentine but we'll make up for that :)

    

Love You both very much!

Sitting here watching Ellen.
Billy is snoring right beside me.
& I'm waiting for this snow storm to hit
I'm so excited!!

Yes I said excited. I love getting snow storms, i just hate driving in it & having to clean off my car.
  The wind is starting to pick up & it's getting darker. ekkkk :) the weather guy said Columbus could get 4 to 6 & north of Columbus 6 to 10. Hopefully that 6 to 10 comes down into the Columbus area. Meteorologist never really seem to get the weather right 70% of the time. My luck this whole storm will miss us. (knock on wood)
 Enough talking about the snow.

 Billy just woke up and mentioned he was a little cold, there was cold air coming out of the vents, what the heck! went to check the thermostat & its 63 degrees with the AC on. the only people that could have done it is the nurse or the other aide. Freaking go outside if your hot. It's 23 degrees out. They just think about themselves & never about Billy their CLIENT who can't regulate his body temperature. URGHHH

  Lately, I've been trying to figure out some relaxing techniques to just calm my body & not be so tensed up.

I worry constantly about things. Past couple weeks just haven't been good on me physically and mentally. I've had a lot of anger built up, every little things aggravates me. it scares me and i question myself, Am I Bipolar? God, I really hope not.
  January 21st, my best friend, whose been my best friend since 2nd grade was diagnosed with Thyroid Cancer. Right away they had to schedule surgery to remove her Thyroids. Now, she is on a no iodine diet till towards the end of this month.
Losing my Poppy is still very fresh for me, even though its been a year an a half since his passing, I'm just not ready for something like this again in my life. No, she isn't going to die. But, cancer isn't a easy thing no matter the type or stage or who has it. it affects everyone not just that person. Since her diagnoses it seems like its all she can really talk about and its understandable, but too be honest its really getting to me. I want to be supportive and be there for her every step of the way, but what do i do when it starts to bring me down and bring back memories with what my Grandpa had to go through and when i had cancer as a kid?

 NO MATTER what I'm still going to be by her side. I just need help on trying to get me to relax and not tense up through all this that is going on. am' I making sense?

I LOVE YOU JENNY BOO! You are a fighter <3
