Easter 2012

It's a beautiful day outside.  I haven't really set out to enjoy it, though.  Knowing it's pretty out I guess is good enough.  ;)  I was supposed to drive to Florence to meet a friend who had purchased a Stainless Steel Pots/Pans set through my business, Princess House.  I received a text at 6:30am saying he was too exhausted to drive to meet me, maybe another day.  In a way, I was relieved!  I didn't have to drive 4 hours round trip by myself!  :D  Yay.  I'd really like to be able to get the set to him, though.  I have a second set that needs to get 9 hours away to Sarasota, FL, too!   Aggh!
I have eaten a bowl of cereal, bleach scrubbed the laundry room, started more laundry and started the dishwasher all this morning.  I'm waiting on my sleeping prince to wake up so I might make us an Easter Brunch.  From there, who knows.
Easter is so weird this year.  We have nothing going on, no family getting together, nadda.  I did get to do an Easter craft, though.  I wanted to make treats for Jeremy and the crew he works with since they work tonight.  I made them last night, so I hope they are not hard as rock by the time they get to eat them tonight!  :P  If so, I'll let Jeremy know to have them microwave them for 5-10 seconds or something to soften them up. Here's a picture of them here:

It was fun making them!  A lot cleaner than egg dying anyway! :)  The only other thing I think I might do is make some deviled eggs.  Then, I think... why?  It's just the two of us... That would be a bit of egg to eat before it goes bad.  I'm trying to lose weight... and I'm stuck at the moment, even though I've continued working out and trying!  I think I need to cut back on the foods a bit and especially evaluate what I'm putting in my body, no matter how bad I want it!!!  My current take on that is...

Yeah... frustrating.

Jeremy's dad is back home now and Jeremy won't be taking leave this week. (Thank goodness).  David wouldn't elaborate on what his action plan is to get better, so we'll see.  We were planning on heading to Venice this weekend to visit with my family.  It's been almost a year since I've seen them, I think.  I have to work on Friday, so that was kind of nixed to begin with.  Now, we have to travel anyway, to go be with his dad.  It's important to do so, though.  Time is sensitive, and his health very bad.  :(   You just never know.  Even with good health... you never know. 
I guess that's why I really can't wait to visit with my family again, see my two nieces, my new nephew I haven't met yet (born in Feb) and then my Mom, Brother and Sister.  What about my dad, you ask?!  Funny story.
One, he truck drives, so chances are I wont see him anyway.  Two, he has very big shoulders.  And the point of number two is the fact that those shoulders can hold VERY VERY large chips.  He has held the BIGGEST chip against me since the end of September.  Shit, we're almost to a year by the time we're done blinking since he hasn't really spoke to me.  He spoke with me once since then, on Christmas.  It was a big fat "Merry Christmas, I still love you."  I have received one text since then as well... a reply to my Happy Valentine's day text.  I've texted, I've posted here and there.  NOTHING.  I guess he'd just rather me be dead to him.  Whatever floats his boat... I just hope nothing bad happens before he can finally get those chips off his shoulders. 
That's definitely a story for another day, though.  :)
I hope everyone is enjoying their time with their friends and families during this wonderful, meaningful day.  Perhaps I'll vent more later, maybe not.  We shall see.  Until next time....
