Maybe...

I should take some Valium tonite...hmmmm....

Valium & Guinness

So you would think all the pain meds and Valium would be a good thing for a dog after surgery right... Well when the dog weighs 120 lbs. and won't leave his crate, it makes it difficult for one to take a drugged up dog who doesn't care about a darn thing right now (hence the Valium) outside to pee. Thus you end up coming home to a husband who is taking around the crate around the dog while you get to hear about how he somehow managed to pee in his bed without getting the top wet, just the bottom. Now wouldn't be so bad except this the is bed that he ripped to shreds two weeks ago and so the fluff inside is not in any kind of inner bag, which then brings me to how to wash the outer cover, sanitize the fluff, and keep the dog happy and not bleeding on furniture or carpet while the washing occurs. I would imagine this all wouldn't be so annoying if I didn't have crazy ass parents at work today.
I have a set of parents who have their own church, pastor, etc...and complain about a book I am reading involving prophecies and say they don't believe in prophecies...Now correct me if I am wrong but I think there are a few of those in the Bible, so needless to say I am confused. I stop reading said book, and begin another, which they are now complaining about because it has what they would consider a plam reader. Again I am confused because I thought I taught in a public school, but what do I know. I will try to maintain my patience tomorrow while meeting with the parents who took these complaints straight to my principal by the way, and are just now discussing these issues with me tomorrow.
I've had a fantastic day, how was yours?

My baby is hurt.

I am so very sad because Guinness broke his leg Friday afternoon, and had to have surgery to place a pin in his leg yesterday mng. He is very drugged up and sleepy. He did eat breakfast this mng, and has let us clean his leg up and remove the bandage. He hasn't however wanted to leave his crate. He stood up once this mng and wobbled and was like no way am I going to keep trying to do this, turned around and layed back in his house. I hate it that he is hurting, and that he isn't up and in my face like usual, I don't like that he is sleeping so far away from us at night, and I don't like that I can't fit in his crate with him to cuddle. I never thought I would miss being attacked at 6am but I do. And I want my baby to get better fast...I mean who's going to make me go running everyday now...???? And he's just plain pathetic....And thanks to those of you for your wonderful thoughts and prayers!

Sick

I hate being sick when you just feel achy, have migraines, and are nauseous. Slept till noon today...felt like poo all day, tried the TU game but wasn't that enjoyable, now the headache is back and I'm pretty sure I have a fever. So goodnite, I hate being sick did I mention that.

back to reality

so reality crashed into the case world today...

we were cleaning our house today, and then went to jeremy's gma's to help clean out her house. we then took a load of trash to the dump...yes i said dump...ever been? DON'T GO! it's utterly disgusting...i can't use enough adjectives to describe our experience. but man the world has alot of trash...

while on our way to the dump we got a call from jeremy's mom who said jason was taking jess (sister in law) to the er because she couldn't taste anything since last nite and then today her left eye was all swollen when she woke up. then at lunch she and jason went to chick fil a and she couldn't close her mouth around a straw and her drink just spilled out around her mouth...
after arriving at the er we sat around being able to visit her one at a time for over 2 hours until the doc came to examine her and ordered a CAT scan and blood work. another hour later, after rotating to visit with her, her tests came back clear and fine, so no tumor that's good, no random diseases or viruses, but she has Bell's pasly. and although that is totally shaking all our world's right now because she and jason are getting married in 4 months and she's really freaking that her face won't look right for her wedding...and i really do get her fear. the doc says she will make a full recovery quickly but quickly to him is somewhere in the neighborhood of 3-9 weeks, but bells pasly can sometimes take up to 9 months to full recover. we are all of course praying for a very speedy recovery, and will be spending lots of family time together, but please pray for my sister in law as their are other complications that can come from having bells pasly and of course the fact that it is hard to look at yourself smile or close your eyes and not see the person you once saw.

needless to say it was an exhausting day...

Olympics

I feel like all I am doing lately is watching the olympics, don't get me wrong I love watching most of it, but it is getting pretty draining. And it tooks up way too much freakin' space on the dvr...leaves no room for my days of our lives and jon & kate plus 8...hahaha. We did get away from the tv for most of the wkend to clean out the g-parent's (graff) house since they have moved into Montereau (sp?) We had a good time with the fam...but now my sinuses are killing me from all the dust and random trash stashed in random places throughout the house. We are now back to watching the olympics, track and field, (jeremy's fav being a runner and all) not my fav, but it's ok. Don't feel like going to school tomorrow, but I have to, so therefore I must go to bed now. Goodnite all,

About the First Day of School

Ok, so you think you only have so many 1st days of school in your life that you must suffer through...well it's my personal self choice of hell FOREVER. I don't know why I get so freakin' anxious, nervous, nauseated, etc... but it happens every year. Although I do have to say that this year the first day went rather smoothly...so much so that I am left wondering what I forgot and where...a child in the bathroom, didn't explain the agenda, recess, who knows at this point honestly. I haven't got all their faces down yet, or their parents, so maybe someone went home with the wrong adult...haha...not really funny. The personal hell includes all of these wonderings and more...it also involves children not able to tie shoes, button and unbutton pants (sometimes), sharpen pencils, read instructions and the agenda, and they don't know where everything is in the room. I mean I just groomed and molded 22 fantastic children to do all those things by themselves including reading like there is no tomorrow, and now alas I am back to babies again and it is THE hardest thing to revert my mind to where it needs to be to accept these new kiddos. I have to bring the patience to the forefront and times it by a million, and also remember to repeat myself a gajillion times....aargghhh! If you would like to know more about the first few days of school feel free to stop by for an in person experience (& see how much patience you have)...we love visitors!

About Breaking Dawn

I can't find the words for how phenominal this book is. (or the series for that matter) I read it in four days...I was totally worthless after Friday the 1st at Midnight (yes Nat and Jennifer and I went to B&N) until I finished the book. It was one of those where you want so desperately to finish the entire saga, and yet want it to go on forever (but that would be silly). Although I am totally happy with the way everything ended, and can't wait to see what types of things Stephenie Meyer will think to write about next.

Breaking Dawn and Starting School

Between these two things I have no time to blog, so this is all you get for now...talk to you in a week or so. But loved the book and excited for a new group of kiddos!

TAG I'm it!

Well you can thank Blaze for this b/c I have been tagged...

Six Quirky things about Me-

1. (Most important) I don't like for my ears to be touched even if I know it's coming, and yes I know that is like the brother on Something about Mary, and no I don't wear earmuffs.

2. My closet is sorted into various items: sweaters, pants, capris, tanktops, long sleeved dress shirts, sleeveless dress shirts, short sleeved dress/going out shirts, etc...from there they are color coded...and the color code even fades from one color right into the next one. For example, greens together in various shades go from emerald green to say teal which would then lead into blues...

3. I have to ALWAYS lock my car and then press the button again to hear it honk, but only one honk, more than one and we have to start all over by unlocking and relocking.

4. I can't stand to have my hands dirty which is hard since I teach 1st grade and I am an artist...let's just say I go through lots of wipes and soap.

5. It is a rarity for me to go somewhere and not use the restroom...I almost always have to go even I am only there for like 5 mins., but then there are so many germs I must wash extensively and even use hand sanitizer once out of the bathroom. In the same breathe I must go the restroom right before leaving the house, literally stop Jeremy all the time while he is setting the alarm b/c I must pee, even if I don't really have to.

6. I could watch any show that pertains to surgery or medicial issues. It doesn't matter if it is about problem solving a weird illness, having a baby, a boob job, guy with something perturding from his head...I love it all...the more blood and organs the better.

I tag...
