What to do with a kid who has Asthma & 1 who won't eat anything but noodles

It's been an ultra-busy week for us. J's sister's kids have been spending the week, up from Texas, with J's parents (and, by default, us as well...). N is their daughter who, despite being 4 months younger than M (my daughter), is much taller and is wearing at least size 7/8 clothes & size 2 shoes.... Sign in to see full entry.

So, Last night, I had this dream about being pregnant......................

And it was VERY vivid. At one point the baby pushed against my abdomen and I could feel the outline of his foot as well as the pressure. I've had two kids....I remember that feeling well. I was upset about being pregnant because: 1) I swore I'd never go through that again (don't mind the kids, it's... Sign in to see full entry.

I'm kinda stressing about today already....................................

Most of the day is actually going to be pretty smooth, it's the latter 1/4 that's going to get to me. Every time I think about all the "stuff" we have to do this evening, I can feel my anxiety levels rise. I have to have my girls over to the auditorium at 4:30 pm for Finale rehearsal. L's rehearsal... Sign in to see full entry.

Not much to write about...been SOOOO busy!.................................

Last night a impressive thunderstorm rolled through. The lightening was awesome, even starting a few fires in the dry, ripe wheat here and there. We drove to town in the thick of it (after having had nice weather for most of the day...figures..) to get the girls dance pictures taken. On top of all... Sign in to see full entry.

Working through the negatives with EFT.....................................

I've recently become enthralled with EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique). EFT is a cousin to Acupressure and Acupuncture that uses tapping on the meridians to clear disruptive energy blocks. These energy blocks can effect everything from mental/emotional issues to physical pain. I've learned the... Sign in to see full entry.

Thank You Blogit!!!........................................................

For your kind comments when I was feeling down. I feel much better the last couple days. I've decided to do a little house cleaning, virtually and in reality, which has helped me figure a few things out. First of all, I'm going to delete my Religious Ignorance Scares Me blog. I may go through and... Sign in to see full entry.

I'm so despondant right now................................................

My eyes are puffy and tired from crying. The frustration is more than I can handle. There are so many negatives in my life right now and this latest issue with the insurance company is the last straw. I recently went to a doctor, after months of trying to decide upon the right one, only to find... Sign in to see full entry.

Last night we ate a gloriously decadent dinner.............................

Picture this... No, never mind, I'll picture it for you! Fried chicken: Hot Fried Corn: Cornbread bowls (for the corn): Brought together with Mashed Potatoes and Gravy: The best part wasn't the fancy cornbread bowls J created, nor was it the mashed potatoes made with cottage cheese and a little...

I'm really confused about my Curves report.................................

Happy, but confused... On the upside, I've lost 6.25 lbs since February 28. On the downside, I've lost 1 inch from my bust, I've GAINED.5 inches around my waist, GAINED.75 inches around my abdomen, and GAINED.25 inches around my hips. What's up with that? Is it muscle mass? Was most of the weight I... Sign in to see full entry.

Today is weigh in day at Curves!...........................................

I'm so nervous. Who'd a thunk it. I was convinced it wouldn't matter to me but it does. I had told myself heart health was more important than weight loss but I need to see those pounds come down. I can already tell my heart works better...when I take my pulse during workouts, it isn't bounding too... Sign in to see full entry.

I ran my scrub top through the copy machine and dated Gil Grissom!.........

Which is reality and which is dream? Who can tell anymore! I went to Curves after work last night, despite REALLY not wanting to, and the ladies that work there about tripped over themselves to get to my scrub top! I purchased a nice spring design with a green background, butterflies, dragonflies,... Sign in to see full entry.

I was felt up by my own daughter...SEVERAL TIMES!!!........................

Children have this almost obsessive interested in boobs, like most men I know. What is the fascination? I guess I don't see it cause I have them. Other's only WISH they had them! LOL J went on a field trip with my oldest to an indoor swimming pool this morning. L was jealous and wanted to go... Sign in to see full entry.

In a Deathly bad mood......................................................

Yesterday was one of the worst days I've weathered in a long while. I'd rather be sick than in a mood such as yesterday's! I was all twisted up inside. Anger, frustration, melancholy, and more all balled up in to one giant knot in my stomach. I'm pretty sure it was sugar induced, at least partially.... Sign in to see full entry.

Looks like we're getting a new (to us) car next weekend....................

We didn't win the bidding on Ebay. No one did as the reserve was not met. Thank goodness the seller put his phone number on the auction. J called him and, just as we thought, the reserve was $2500. We agreed to the $2500 and have already been approved for a loan. The APR is 8.5% but what can one... Sign in to see full entry.

Caught on film!............................................................

Okay, it's not actually "film" in the old school sense. I used my digital camera to catch the weirdest thing this morning. Have you ever seen a duck in a tree? If you want to see a bigger picture just click on the pic above to see the ducks better. I've circled them in red. J and I had never seen... Sign in to see full entry.
