Gooooooooooooooooood mornin

Well another filling done, and two more to go.

And my intitial evaluation of the dentist is rapidly siding into he's a jerk.

This morning he nummed the tooth.   And put the drill into work on it...except it wasn't num, and it hurt a LOT.   I instinctively jumped.   And he swore at me.  

I know *why* he swore...cause he almost cut me when he jumped.  But I'm sorry that is 100% inexcusable.  And he never apologized for it.

I will get the last two fillings fixed...and then continue the search for the "perfect" dentist. 

It took 3 sets of "extra" shots to get the tooth numb enough to work on.   *joy*   I'm on 800 of ibuprofen...cause that nerve is gonna be way raw when it denumbs.

All of this and I'm still sick.  Last night if my hubby had been home I would have gone to the ER for steroids.  I'm craving 'em man.   My cold dropped from my head to my chest over night.  I woke up unable to breathe, and the harder I tried the worse I got.   I took a puff of albuterol, but didn't get very much in my lungs cause I was breathing so shallowly.   I was praying, and trying to remind myself not to panic.   And contemplating "borrowing"  Rainee's oxygen.  Have done this before.   But I was also hot (fever)  so I stepped outside in the cold air, and continued to attempt to slow my breathing down.   Fortunately the cold air snapped me loose a teensy bit, and I was able to get a second puff of albuterol to do enough so I could sleep again.  I sucking it like theirs no tomorrow, max dose each time.

*growls*   But fever was gone this morning, and as I've already missed two dentist appointments I went, and I survived.  But trust me it sucked a LOT.

After dentist ran to Walmart to pick up a couple last minute things for our trip.   New diaper bag (ours is trashed)  and a new bag for me...my old one died when I went to my grandpas funeral.   Also a couple new toys for Rainee to entertain her on the airplane.

Cause Thursday morning we're headed on our way for our mini-vacation.    Still trying to figure out how to swing a visit to see Zanzivou....but have to debate it with my hubby a bit more.   

Oh I got a lovely plus sized magazine in the mail today.  Never seen their stuffies before...and they have some BEAUTIFUL modern clothes, and reasonably priced.  DH has given me the go-ahead to order some stuff.   Think I'll wait 'til I get back first.   They are Roamans?       Even *gasp* have bras in my size...this is a major feet these days.

Other then that we're just hanging low trying to get healthy.  My kids are happy Scooby Doo marathon on today...its their favorite cartoon.  (and mine LOL)   so everybodys good

morning.

Well like half of my sir I have a nasty cold.   It was irritating the last 3 days...now its just plain miserable.  And its trying to get to my eyes. 

And I have a dentist appointment tomorrow.  And I've already cancelled two of them, so theirs absolutely no way I can cancel this one...they'll think I'm a total flake.  *sigh*

One miracle before 8 o'clock tomorrow strongly requested.

We've had GORGEOUS weather the last couple days.

Yesterday I went outside with a blanket and played with my kids.  Originally I thought I was gonna read a book, but instead I got in a orange peel war.    They make quite effective grenades

And then my kids and I had a wooden sword (stick) fight.   And then just one big tickle fest.  All in all it was quite fun.   And I haven't enjoyed my kids that much in a long time.

Mari and I had a bit of a war (the wrong kind)  during it, as he was very grumpy...eventually however we sorted it out.   And for the first time in a week he's actually being his sweet self again.   Apparently he needed mommy to finally lay down the law on whatever mood he was in.

The pool was fun last night.  We are staying between 30-40 minutes.  Not long, but enough for them.  Sam *gasp*  was actually helpful carrying stuff, and collecting stuff on the way out.  And I praised him muchly for this.   Mari "swam" last night for the first time.  They wear swimsuits with inflatables in them (the 3  youngest)  and last night was the first night he was willing to let go of me and float on his own.  So that was very cool.   Now if we could just get him SMILING when he's in the water.  He's the only one who isn't completely thrilled about the water...and as its the rest of the families favorite thing to do...hes gonna have to have a attitude adjustment.     Mommy's teaching him how.  *Sniggers*

Basically he and I have had a battle going since Monday.   But he was loving and sweet this morning, and even smiling at me again, so whatever developmental or psychological funk he was in...he's coming out of.  I hope.   Yesterday was a hard day in regards to him.  Haven't had that bad of a battle with him in a long time.   And seriously believe he was having some kind of drug withdrawals as well......we gave him some childrens dayquil...and we suspect he was reacting to it.  Won't do that again any time soon.

Gorgeous again today, although my eyes are incredibly light sensitive.  I'm really hoping thats not the direction the cold is going.   But time will tell.  Hope to sit on the blanket again today, and enjoy the monkeys.  And maybe do a post or two as time permits.

Did one last night at the B&B back history for G'den.  I know where I'm headed...but still have a couple details to sort out in my mind....maybe I'll day-dream them while wrestling with my kiddos.  *grin*

men and boys are thick.  Thick I say!

Bangs head on table.

Samuel pick up the toy by your toe.

Samuel turns around and walks three feet away.  "Where is it mommy?"

Samuel by where your toe WAS.  "Oh!"   Sam walks back to where he was and picks up the wrong toy.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Case example two.

Mari turn the tv on please.  Mari walks over to the tv and pushes the button furthest away from the power button.  "This one mommy."  No Mari the one all the way on the other side."  He moves one button over.  

"This button mommy?"  No Mari farther over.

He goes back to the first button.  "This button mommy?"

Rainee walks up.  Rainee is 22 months old.  She puts her hand in the right corner but doesn't push hard enough.  Push the button that Rainee's touching.   Mari moves back to the second button he was on.  "This button mommy?"

GAH!

Rainee turns the tv on the second try.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Case point 3. 

Well, Kaylin doesn't have a single matching pair of shoes.  I've looked everywhere.    She's wearing Zeria's boots to church.  I'm too tired to care...but later I go look.

Less then a foot from where they belonged (after DH has looked all over the house)  are two sets of matching shoes.  TWO!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Case point 4

Sam go put your pjs on.  Sam goes into the room to get his pjs.  Comes back out in 30 seconds. "I don't have pjs."   "You weren't in their long enough to look, go back."  HE goes back and stares for a LOOOONG time.   "I don't have pjs."  he says looking helplessly male at all of 5 years of age. 

So I sigh and go look.  Yup, their they are right in his pj drawer amazing how that works.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Case number 5

Sam go get a paper towel and wipe your face.  Their on the island.  Sam goes to the kitchen counter...walking PAST the paper towels to get there.   And stares blankly at the counter.  One wonders if he remembers what he's looking for.  "Sam their behind you on the island."   "OH!"  he says and grabs them.

Thick I tell ya!

Should I go on??????   Or maybe you can continue on with your men and boy stories in my comments...I need a laugh. 

nevermind...I'm depressing myself.  cackles madly.   These go on every day all day.   Men and boys are thick I tell ya.  THICK.

And we love them WHY?????

thank u  after squinting to read the comments I edited the background *again*

And now you can read...but I don't like it.

*snigger*

Oh well I'll have it for a week or two...and then switch again I'm so bad.  Its cheaper then buying new furniture though.  *giggles*

I DO like my banner however.  *grin*

Today (shhhhhhhhhhhhh)  is swimming day.   But I am so not discussing this with my children.   Or I'll hear "Are we gonna go swimmin' now every 30 seconds between now and when we go.  *snicker*

Last week after we swam I told them it was a lot of fun, and relatively low key, but they would NOT be doin' that remindin' thing next week.  So far nobody has asked...but then its 7:20 in the morning...give them 5.

I got sick last night...but fortunately it didnt' come out the end I thought it was.    Too much info I know...but the people I was aiming with were probably worried.   I think I just ate too much fresh veggies & stuff.  *shrugs*  They sure were good....

Rainee had a bad night last night.  Oxygen pulled out, alarms going off, and she's acting like it this morning.  I want to put her back to bed and she just got up. 

*growls* at hubby....takes deep breathe.  I'm cranky today.   Got pms' big time.   Breathes again.....maybe I should run-away before I say sumfin' stupid eh?

Survived grocery shopping.  And then when DH got home from work had this discussion about men and boys and their inability to tune out visal stimuli.  I just about wrung Mari's neck.   Because every time I turned around I was trying to run him over.   Cause he was lookin' instead of watching mommy.   Theirs just soooooooooooo much to look at ya know.      And then in the parking lot a van missed him by 3 feet...cause he was lookin' instead of movin.

*growls*   Of course I was pms'ing yesterday too which didn't help.  *snigger*    My husband and my sons..if I wish to tell them something the tv has to be off, I have to be within six inches of their face and they have to have direct eye contact with me.   Orrrrrrrrrrrr   I'm a nobody.      And you tell me that the sex's aren't different, and I'm stereotyping...and I'll send them to live with you for a week

Okies, gonna cruise my sir, no point in cruising the boards probably.....pats Jen for babysitting her 'ils kids...and contemplates a way to enjoy the gorgeous day outside.

Oh bought 3 more roses yesterday for all of $9.  Climbing ones this time...just not sure where I'm gonna put the 3rd one...think I might have to go get a fourth one to balance it off *eg*

Okies....I need an opinion or two...I've tried about a bazillion colors of font...can you read ok on my site??  Or do I need to try color bazillion and one??

testing

 

contemplates deeply the wonders of why Rainee has mud caked liberally in her hair.

stares at it for a moment...

and decides...I just really don't want to know......

but it might explain why she was crying.

 

Update...

Went to find the shoes...thought ya know I'd be looking for hours.  Cause DH looked for em right?

DH I keep forgetting couldn't find the broad side of a barn.

One shoe was in the shoe box (this was the one they found)  One shoe...(drum roll please)  was one foot away from it and in plain view.

Cackles madly at my husband....and can't wait to rub it in....wait that'd not be nice right?  Gonna do it anyhow

welllllllllllllllllllllllllllll  I think I need a life.

Stared at the boards hoping there was one there...but there isn't cause its spring and everybody else has lives.  Ones that I'm NOT envious of btw.  ROFL

Sooooooooo now I apparently need to find one.   Of course this would be easier to do if Rainee hadn't shared her cold with me, and I had a teeny bit more energy then say oh a slug??

Actually come to think of it slugs have more energy then I do.

Rob woke up feeling ambitious.  And is taking the kids to the beach for a few before he goes to work.  They'll leave the  house if they ever manage to find five sets of shoes.

And yup my shoe organization thingy worked for about 6 months...but all of a sudden Kaylin is falling through the shoe cracks.....she has more shoes then anybody else (myself included)   All because we can always only find one.   So I guess while daddy's at the beach...I'll go find her shoes.    That's a life right??

NOT

I know, I know,  I could archive...but one can only do that so long before they start going stir raving mad!

                                   

For Kerri......so she knows she's not alone. 

Oh and just so ya know...she knocked down a jar of jam when she was up there...and their was 2 cups of jam allllllllllllllllll over my floor.
