Thanks for your positive comments and thoughts regarding Blaine’s procedure yesterday. It was minor … very minor … so minor I considered taking him out for breakfast (and by taking him out, I mean taking MYSELF out for breakfast) since we had to be there so stinking early in the morning and I didn’t get [...]
Up at 5am to take Blaine to the Surgery Center …. he’s been having unexplained bleeding from his ear and nose for a few months, so his ENT is going to scope out his sinuses and put a tube in his ear. For like the third or fourth time, I can’t even remember …… I [...]
For three days in a row, I have -INTENTIONALLY- taken part in an activity I knew would induce sweating. I think it is safe for me to now go to my FB profile and change my occupation to “professional athlete”. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to go eat a cinnamon roll. Because carb-loading [...]
School has been out for three weeks now, and so far we have had: one orthodontist adjustment, one parents’ band meeting, one cut and color, one doctor’s appointment for my mom, Ms. Gimpy McGimpyRibs, one doctor’s appointment for immunizations, one wart burned off, one shot for poison ivy, one piano lesson, one therapy appointment, one dental [...]
Facebook status updates, from today: 2:30 pm — Expensive, unplanned home repair happens in three’s. I get that. But when I went out in the garage to pay the guy who was fixing our garage door, I found a huge puddle under my deep freeze, and that is #4 for me this week. I think [...]
I’ve posted about them numerous times, the first-day-of-school, and last-day-of-school surveys that my kids fill out for their scrapbooks. I’ve also commented before that as they get older, their answers get less silly. I still remember when Kendrie was in kindergarten or so, and she answered both my age and my weight as “47″. Or [...]
OK, so technically Kendrie isn’t in middle school YET. I think we have ten or eleven weeks of summer left, before school begins here again and my baby, my youngest child, the teeniest, tiniest, fruit of my loins, begins her first year as a middle schooler and tackles 6th grade, with its lockers, and elective [...]
Quoted directly from my vet bill last week: “The physical exam performed on Brew today was within normal limits, except for the stick stuck in his mouth. I removed it, he should be fine.” I don’t know why, but that makes me laugh.
So, I haven’t talked tons about it because I don’t want to be all self-absorbed, and vain and conceited, and Talky McTalky Pants about myself …. but since my surgery, I can’t seem to get myself out of the stores. Because like I mentioned earlier, it is so FREAKING COOL to be able to shop off [...]
Late Monday morning I was driving to work and I called my mom, like I often do on my way to work, because its a 10-minute drive and that’s the perfect time to chat and catch up just a bit. She answered the phone and sounded …… odd. And perhaps a bit out of breath. “What’s [...]
