Migraines 'n Wind

The weather today was down right dreary. It rained this morning and stayed cloudy all day long. We had wind gusts between 27 & 37 mph all day long. It felt as if a tropical storm was in town. On top of that I didn't get a good nights rest. Elizabeth and her friend Sarah came into town last night at 12:30. I was in the bed w/ Mackenzie b/c I had left the front door unlocked for them. I got up when they got in and I went in my room but Jackson as always kicked me around. I had to get up early today because I had a breakfast meeting w/ some loan officers. By the time I got finished I had the worst headache ever. Actually, it turned into a migraine. I finally kicked the migraine part by early afternoon but the dull headache has stayed. On top of that it was just so dreary. Not a good happy feeling day.

Mackenzie went to the circus last night with Stella and Emily our neighbors. She had such a wonderful time. Maria brought her home around 9:30. She was absolutely exhausted. But she had a good time. She had a chance to ride on the elephants but she was too scared. I thought she'd of done it of all people. I think the tiredness crept in to today because she was cranky tonight. Majorly cranky, but once Jana got here she got better.

Jackson was so funny tonight with Jana. He kept drinking water from her bottle and he'd make the cutest faces and shudder when he got finished. He kept coming back for "mo". Mackenzie is so good with Jackson. I am so proud of what a great big sister she is. She was such the little adult tonight sitting with the laptop. She kept looking at pictures and when she'd get stuck she'd ask for help. It was so cute. When I got the laptop a little later she wanted it back. Ummm... you're 6. It's mommy's turn. I have a feeling she's going to be wanting a laptop fairly soon. The Barbie one just ain't cutting it anymore.

I got a card today in the mail. It's been quite a long time since I've gotten a card that wasn't for my birthday or a holiday. It was from Brad. It's so strange because we have the same openess and we're the same in so many ways when it comes to our emotions and how we can express them. I have to say the card made my week. It was so sweet and kind and made me smile... okay and I cried a little bit too. I have to also say his handwriting is really good for a guy. I was very impressed.

Wow, I found out something interesting today. When I was talking to Bobbi I asked her if she has any gaps in her teeth. Okay, what's so freaky is she has the same exact gap in the middle and the same tooth to the right of her big tooth has a gap as well. I feel like I'm in the twilight zone. And Eileen has the same gaps too. It's funny because Bobbi has been as self conscious about it as I am. The more I find out between physical and personality traits I really feel as if I know where it all comes from. It's wonderful to me. I finally can see myself physically in someone else. I always thought how you were raised and the people you were around influenced your personality but I'm finding out that I am soooooo the same in soooooo many ways to Bobbi and Brad. Things that neither my mom or dad really have.

Well, I'm going to try and find something to eat. I know it's kind of late, but I was too tried to eat when I came home and now I'm just so starving that if I don't eat a little something I won't be able to sleep. 'night
