Topic: RE: HAPPY HUMP DAY!!!!

Aww swimming is great!!   I was thinking about signing Sadie up for some swim lessons too this winter.   She loves the water.  We had a pretty good day yesterday I guess.   I rested most of the day.  We did make it to school for Sadie last night.   She absolutely loves going.   Her old daycare lady's grandkids go on Tues nights too.   She loves to see them and the teacher says the twins who are 4 really watch over Sadie and help her.   She loves the one twin more than the other....she even kissed him on the lips last night.  UHOH   we might be in for it LOL.   They brought her a birthday present too...such a great family....we miss that daycare so much.   Daddy also brought home a present for her from "grandpa Jim and grandma Pat"....he is my husband's coworker but since Sadie was born has called themselves her grandparents.   They can't make it to her party on Sat unfortunately.   Her party theme is monkeys...they somewhere found monkey pajamas and they are awesome!!   They also got her a doll, 2 dresses, and another outfit.   She's just a bit spoiled.   I still have yet to buy her a present.....ok I have til Monday right??   We are actually thinking about waiting to see what everyone else gets her on Sat.   Her brother is taking her shopping tonight for the choo choo train she told him she wants him to buy.  

My eye is doing much better today...still tired and a little blurry but soo much better.  I'll be back to work tomorrow.   Sadie and I ventured out to the library this morning.   We also stopped at McDonald's for her to play.   We stopped to get a birthday present for my coworker's 40th that I'm going to tonight.   Sadie is now napping and I just finished up the dishes.   I think I'll go lie down for an hour and enjoy my peace and quiet.

Good Morning, ladies!!!!!!

Hope your day was a good one yesterday.  Just the same old routine here.  A little snow, that finally is sticking.  I am now thinking that winter has officially arrived here in Alaska.
I am trying to take Hunter swimming every 2 to 3 weeks this winter, that is my goal.  He sure likes it, now that he has gone a few times.  I just LOVE to swim, and I think it is good learning for him.  We have SO MANY lakes, and rivers, that I feel safer knowing that he will not be afraid of the water, and if he were to fall in, he would know what to do.

Tomorrow evening, we are having the finance guy come back over and we are enrolling in a life insurance policy, and starting an education account for Hunter.

Hope everyone has a GREAT day!!!!

My mom actually told us it was chicken stew until after we ate it.   She then told us what it was.   Of course then it was too late for us to say we didn't want to eat it because of what it was.   I love stews and soups dh not so much.   I do make him suffer sometimes though and make a pot.

Was it "mystery meat"????????  hee hee

There was some spruce hen meat in there as well.  I like it all!!!!  I am having leftover stew again for lunch today.  The leftovers, we will freeze, so that we do not waste them, because, I am tired of stew this week!!!!  We made a very LARGE crock pot full.  I LOVE to have stew in the winter time.  Plus, it's cheap!!!!!!

Great Job Hunter!!!    Sounds like once he got warmed up he was excited about his reward LOL.   My mom used to make rabbit stew when we were kids....although she didn't tell us it was rabbit.

My DH and Hunter went out rabbit hunting on Saturday morning.  He is not quite 2 1/2.  They came back with 4 rabbits!!!!!!  My DH said he cried all the way home, though, because he got cold (you know, that stinging cold??).  But he was a happy boy, once he got back to the house.  DH said that they would not go back out hunting together, unless it was 40 or above outside.

So, on Sunday, we cooked up rabbit stew, and it was GREAT!!!!

UUUGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!  I was hoping that this treatment would be gentle.  I hope that the worst pain is behind you and that you can heal up and be done.  And I am happy that your family is helping you out as well.

Take care!!!!!

It is snowing really, really hard right now.  It is the wet snow, the stuff for snowballs, snow angels, and snowmen!!!!!  It makes the driving difficult (which is part of my job).
It is raining in Anchorage (about 50-60 miles south of here).  So when the temperature drops, it will freeze into ice, which is dangerous, because people have not figured out yet, that winter is back & you need TO SLOW DOWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, I slept until 8:30 this morning.   I haven't done that in a loooong time.   This eye treatment took it out of me sooo much.   It was much worse than the last one.  I started having a panick attack during the treatment.   It hurt way worse than last time...I can remember the last one being a bit annoying but not painful...that is while he was doing it.   This time it hurt and burned bad.  I came home and laid in the recliner all evening.  When I walked out of the Dr office I had a big scare...my eye was patched but I couldn't see anything but bright lights out of my other eye.   Thankfully my aunt drove me and was there to help me to the car.   I remembered that they dialated both eyes.   Whew it was just cuz of the dialation that I couldn't see.    My 18 yr old was here thankfully and helped a lot with Sadie.   She even bought pizza for everyone for supper.   Although I was in so much pain I couldn't keep mine down.  I slept off and on...had a hard time getting comfortable from the pain.   When I took tylenol it took the edge off the pain a bit and I was able to rest for a bit.   I finally was able to take the patch off at 10pm.   I took it off put a drop in...took my lunesta and was out for the night. I woke up this morning with my eye stuck shut from drainage.   Didn't have that last time either.   I put my drop in and looked in the mirror....OMG I look like Luke beat me up!!   It's bruised all the way across my whole upper eyelid.   I still hurt quite a bit too.   I"m supposed to be back to work tomorrow but I have a slight feeling that's not going to happen.  Not  a huge deal...I'm coverd under FMLA through tomorrow for this.   I have enough PTO to pay me for everything except like 2 hrs I think.  My sight is very very blurry.  Sadie and I are going to stay home today and take it easy.   She has kindermusik this afternoon but I think we'll miss it just this one time.   She has school tonight too but daddy can take her to that.   My 18 yr old daughter is here until about 11 so I have some help with her then hopefully she'll take a good nap after lunch till her brother gets home.    Sorry if this is misspelled or not written in full sentences I can barely see what I'm typing.
