I almost lost someone dear to me ......

okay I am sick. Have a pretty bad case of the stomach flu. See last Friday the hennys were going to Florida for a trip. Well they caught this stomach flu and brought it to the office. So I am the only one who comes down with it. They were out for a few days this week. Well I started to feel it on Tuesday and by the time Wednesday rolled around I was so sick .. And it didn't help for the past few days I have been eating these nasty ass nachos from the gas station across the street but there good and I plan on buying more tonight....LOL. So I left work around 12pm on Wednesday and skipped school. My partner in crime wanted to go out drinking but I couldn't handle booze .

so today I called in sick slept it off a lil and now I am at school. Feeling a lil better I have been drinking lots of water and 7 up. So that's that one.
okay let me ge to the title of the blog. Last night my heart broke for a second. And it is true that when u think someone is dead u kind have that instant flash of the good times and how life is after their gone and what are u going to do and tell everyone. Last night as I was in the kitchen I happened to look up to the top of the fridge where I keep lil fiddy.(for those who don't know that's my turtle) I keep him up on the top of fridge cause my son messes with him. Julius can not reach him when he's up there.
so I glance at him and he looks stiff and white. And I freak, so I tap the glass and say fiddy. He's not responding. So I'm thinking oh shit !! And the flash begins back to the 1st day I saw him, our fun times and them him laying lifeless and white under the water. Then I think oh my what am I to tell the kids? How do I get rid of the body? Can I flush him down the toilet ? Or should I bury him? Dude I'm sad I wanted to cry so I go tell Vern (I'll explain who Vern is later). And he is sad also.
so I go back and check one last time and I noticed he has an eye open. So I pull him out of his water and he wakes up and is happy to see me. He was not dead just in a very deep sleep. So I change his water hold him for a bit and then put him back in his cage. So fiddy is fine.
also I cut my hair last night. It was driving me crazy. Okay there my update..
now leave me alone!!!
