Oh! Ouch!

Matt got three shots today. The nurse promised not to hurt him. She lied. His face turned red and he let out a wail that could be heard to the capitol I bet. Hey relax! It's only 20 miles or so. Anyway we got her name and we know we don't want her next time unless she takes lessons. Funny how Dr. Gloria never made our kids cry. She was good. Real good.

Don't call

Well Todd called DELTA with questions about baggage and Matt and skymiles.Seems like a bother to them to answer questions. The ticket is set and we are ready to go tomorrow, so we'll ask the questions when we get there. His back really hurts and he has to go to school in the morning.Poo-poo baby!

WRecK a FORD

Believe you me I was as surprised as you. Todd got about a mile from the house on his way to school and a kid pulls out in front of him. BAM!! The high school senior had his car just 2 months. The good news is the guy's dad manages a BEN and JERRY'S and told Todd come in for free ice cream. YUM! Oh by the way, neither one was hurt bad. No blood. Todd's back is sorer. T-bone anyone and that will happen. He's just glad he was in the ESCAPE. The day is pretty well over for him. Enterprise will not have a car here until around 3. Pediatrician appointment at 2. Yes, that is the order of things.

Mittens anyone?

Hey I figured out how to knit mittens from the top down!!!! Yes!! Happy dance!! Now, since I've been here, in Virginia remember, I've finished 5, not enough yarn for number 6. Oh and the 5 do not match, oh other than the yarn color.(See previous post-strange) Add those to the 3 pair that do match, I have 11 custom fit mittens!!Tada! Well I admit 2 pair I knit before I left home. But just think. I have mittens that fit my growing girl size patty paws. I am so proud. I just wonder if Matt would like a matching pair. Possible! Go for it? OK!

Lullaby and good morning!

You know it was like this and like that.....

I always wanted to type that and now I can move on. Virginia is doing strange things to my mind.Whoa! Did I really say that? Well as strange as I am, I believe I am stranger now. Scary?Yes!But then I'll be home Saturday evening. Oh one thing more. Back Home Again in Indiana is Matt's favorite lullaby. I kid you not. I think it'll probably vary from person to person. But he loves my off key version so much that if I quit singing before he wants he begins singing. How about that?

PostIng limit

I can't believe that I let August almost slip away completely with a very limited number of posts. Funny how those things, like,oh I don't know- LIFE gets in the mix. Certainly not clouds.That's referencing an old song about clouds getting in the way of seeing clearly what you wanted.

Settled?!?

Could be! Not sure! You know yourself when the soup is stirred too much it gets all mush and mud. Really not very appetizing to anyone. That's kind of been this whole week. Unbelievable upheaval! All for some one's benefit. Although who benefited remains to be seen. But then again maybe..........ah! nuts! Life! Who knows from nothing!

It's not that!

I've not forgotten my goal-to write daily- but I've been really busy. Quite frankly there's no way you would come to remotely understand anything that happened this summer. There is no way that I'm going to be able to relay to you the atmosphere of the summer.Big sigh! Suffice to say that tomorrow is always coming. And that, you can take to the bank!

me 'n Matt

After we took Nan to the airport, oh, and that's a story in itself. Hang in there! I' get back to you on that. We went shopping at two different grocery stores in two different towns. He's good.
