Wow, I'm sorry, that stinks for your son and you guys!

And um, I have -3 medical knowledge and even I know to get the air bubbles out BEFORE injecting....

Bows, sounds like your sister needs a good, swift kick in the seat of her lazy pants into the real world. Along with her jerk pants DH.

I see we're all having fun here. I go see my lawyer today. yeah, fun. So much fun I'd rather be sleeping...stupid pain in my neck...stupid pain in my left leg...


Ok, so obviously there was a doozy storm early this morning...well, I guess not early early cuz it was like 7 am so I suppose that's kind of regular....but ANYWAY, it boomed and boomed and power kept coming and going...but I laid there and was proceeded to be attacked by 2 kittens who then turned thier anger on climbing the curtains and attacking each other and making one another fall... fun times. So I get up later and decide to let the dogs out now that it's passed and notice leaves stuck to my door and some plastic bins I had emptied and thrown outside to load up in my van were strewn all over the yard. oh, I thought, it was one of THOSE storms.

Then I'm outside waitin for all THREE dogs--yeah, I said 3, my friend said she'd pick her dog up last thurs or friday...huh, guess they decided to stay longer? A call would have been nice...UNLESS, her jerkwad dh did something...no, but i worry at times...but seriously, maybe i should call her. So the dogs are going wee and poo and my phone rings, it's my sister who's amazed I have power because she was sleeping at a park in the next town over and a guy was going through the camp ground saying "There's a storm coming! There's a storm coming!" and my sister thinks she has half an hour before it hits? I don't know if she listened to a radio or where she got that info but she says "all of a sudden" <<<ha ha ha dork, "it was like a switch was turned on and the winds were blowing so bad it was all she could do to get out of her tent and collapse it enough and wad it up and stick it sopping wet into the back of her car then tree limb fell on her car but amazingly it only broke a tail light.... She says trees are down all over and power is out.

Which was verified by my lawyer who said she didn't have any power earlier either.


So then sis grabs some clothes and drives to the showers where a bunch of campers are hiding and she realizes she grabbed 2 pairs of shorts, a shirt, a sweatshirt, and underwear....but no bra. <<<<ha ha ha dork. And then she met her friends at a resteraunt for breakfast and excused herself and they were like, where are you going? and she's like...to put a bra on. <<<er, dork.

sparkles has negative THREE medical knowledge? Wow, that's incredible. I suppose that's like watching your kids scrape thier knee and sitting there and laughing and pointing? Or maybe you spit on it and say, good as new.

In all reality, if they come to me asking for a band-aid I ask "Is it dripping? No? then you don't need one."

Ava puts on band aids for fashion. Then when we need them they are gone. I always ask her, is there blood? (same thing as is it dripping) because if it's a scrap or red and it's not juicy and bloody and gonna rub on my furniture and leave a blood mark...then you don't need one. ...kids.

But then we noticed when unpacking that I have a squirrel nut cracker that's cast iron and it's hands were all taped up and my mom says, "Are his hands going to fall off?" And I looked perplexed because I got him at an antique show and no, he was good as new for something made in the 70's but realized....Ava had been at it again. I wonder where my tape goes at times and here is an example of where it disappears too.

LOL I worked as a paramedic when my kids were young. I was the only parent that didnt freak when my kid got hurt. If they fell I would yell is there a bone sticking out? Are you bleeding to death? I worked all week and I'm not going back to the hospital! They only came to me if it was really bad LOL.

My almost-job made Shaner realize I wouldnt be around to be his "I don't wanna do honey-dos" Monkey.

So today he had me paint the backsplash in the kitchen, which was very much like my dining room yucky wall.

He says he wants it ready so he can "put up some tile real quick when he finds something nice and has time."


Mmmhummmm...

Yeah its commonly heard in my house "If you're not bleeding our your ears you're fine! Walk it off walk it off!"
I get dirty looks from other parents...
