Here are a few of my favorite things....................

Hi!!!

 Tiss the season to start thinking about Christmas/holiday shopping................for everybody but me, cause this chick is 90% done. The rest is gift cards so there is no big panic on buying and shipping, it could also wind up just being cash but anyways back on topic. 

 A few of my favorite places to shop at are:
Hollar:           www.hollar.com/share/266680
Shutterfly      https://invite-shutterfly.com/x/1tOYz1
Zulily             http://www.zulily.com/invite/trexnangel66

 Here is the breakdown of why they are my favorites: 

 Hollar, it's like dollar store items, and any order over $25 ships free, and sometimes I can snag really good deals. This site changes frequently, and can be hit or miss, but I find I can always find something here.........like when moving..........it was my go to place, besides Home Depot. 

 Shutterfly gives out freebies like fudge samples at my favorite candy store, sign up for the emails, and if you have a Visa card, sign up for Visa Checkout, they run promos A LOT where you get $20, from checking out using Visa Checkout. I have a freebie offer sitting in my inbox now from Shutterfly themselves. 

 Zulily, is seriously addicting. They have new offers daily, and some last from a few days to a week. Also, they have this one epic day when they do Christmas toys for $.99, that one is a super fast paced sale, but I scored some items worth $35-50 for you guessed it $.99 ( it was in August) .  I also love Zulily for their customer service, it is really the best, and if you have have an issue CONTACT them. 

 Remember to save on shipping costs, you can always direct ship to the recipient. Hollar has free shipping over $25, and $4.95 shipping on orders under that, but you can search promo codes they usually run free shipping codes. Shutterfly has a promo for free shipping over $39 I do believe, but I tend to use promos and free money so I usually only pay shipping, this varies by item. My Zulily hack, is to order on Friday, then I have free regular shipping ( bulk items do not apply) for the whole weeekend!!!! I love this feature. Also, if you place one order you have free shipping on any regular shipping orders for that day as well.

What if...

I guess for this all to make sense we have to go back in time to Halloween of 2013. We had tried to get pregnant, and I had grown impatient. I got pregnant with Squeaker like two weeks coming off birth control. This time it took almost 6 months. So we were so excited to get to the point of the very first ultrasound. So, so very excited. And then the world came crashing down. They said there was no heartbeat. I can remember laying there in the awkwardness of the ultrasound going wow the verbage from the tech is weird, something isn't right. And it wasn't. We were ushered rather quickly into the doctors office after, and the doctor said I am sorry to tell you but there is no heartbeat. We can see the embryo sac, and we are unsure of if you will be able to pass it. We might have to go in to retrieve it but we will know more next week. So next week came and imagine the surprise of the tech when there WAS a heartbeat. A strong perfect little heartbeat. That we didn't expect. ...

We all fight a battle behind closed doors

So there has been too much going on in the land of Chaos and maybe when life is on a more stable track and I know things are in a better direction I will write about that. For now this is my first rant/vent post. I went grocery shopping yesterday and something had happened because when I arrived somebody was being placed on a stretcher, there was a firetruck, an ambulance, and like three cop cars. I waited to go in because it was me and the baby, had I had either one of the other boys I would have gone home. We get to checkout, and the cashier is being a chatty cathy and totally being unprofessional in discussing what happened. The cashier made a comment about how the person seemed to be special needs and proceeded to spout off. Nope, not me, not going to keep my mouth shut. I shut down the cashier, oh and the person running the front of the store was the bagger. Yup schooled them too. Many people suffer from invisible illness. I have my imaginary brain tumors, depression, anxiet...

Ready set, time to register for school!!!

My middle child turned 5 in April. September is going to be bittersweet. There is so much to do, so much to think about. So, so much. His MRI, and his EEG all came back normal!!! Yeah, his brain is good. However this leaves us in an interesting spot, no diagnoses. With final IEP meetings coming up, transitioning meetings, and summer school we are left with no answers. I will admit this left me wondering what to do. I freaked out for a bit, I am not going to lie. How is it that this smart, vibrant boy, who is testing at a three year old level, how is there no answers!!! What is wrong! What did I do!! Then I regrouped, it isn't anything I did. There isn't anything wrong with him. He is a smart, capable, imaginative child. We don't have to have answers. The diagnosis or lack of it doesn't change him. He is who he is. It changes me. It changes my goal. It changes my fight. I don't have answers, I don't have a diagnosis to fall back on. What I have is my figh...
