My son has a home health care nurse

 Of all the people who would wait on him hand and foot when he did not feel well, the last, I would suspect would be his baby sister, yet she has been doing any and everything for him. To the point of being ridiculous if you ask me.

 The boy had a sore ear Wednesday, come Thursday night he was up crying in pain. Friday afternoon we took him to the doctor. Ear infection. Again. I thought he was done with those. Pain meds, Antibiotics, and "gasp" No swimming for a week!

 So the boy, being a boy has made this a VERY big deal. I am in no doubt that it hurts, but he cannot walk without tilting his head to the side, get up to eat a Popsicle at the table like they are supposed too.... Nope he cannot do it. I am the first to tell you I don't "Do sick" very well. When I am sick I generally try to not think about it, and get the hell over it. Obviously this is not the case with kids. I try to be patient but I can only take so much.

 Not my baby girl. She was VERY sympathetic to her big brother. Got him lollis when he wanted them. Did not say "NO FAIR" That he got to eat them on the couch and she did not. She would get any toy he wanted, his cat, blankets, drink of water, and me, when he needed medication. She waited on him hand and foot, like she was his little nurse. This, the child that will chase after him saying "I'm gonna KILL you" when they fight.

 She says she wants to be a nurse. Not a doctor, because if a doctor messes up he can hurt somebody really bad. She wants to be a nurse like her aunt Jennifer. The way she took care of her brother, I have to say, she would make a very wonderful nurse.

 Today though. Well today the boy feels better, and today he and Hannah are back at it. When he was sick I had pointed out how nice his sister was, and how he should really appreciate it and think of that the next time they wanted to fight... He said he would. I knew he wouldn't

Its not always 50/50

 Sometimes one person has to hold up more weight than the other does. Lately I feel as though I am that person holding the extra weight. Lately I have been wishing I was not that person. I feel like I am being spread a bit too thin... I also feel like no matter how many times I try to explain myself, it does not matter.  So I will just keep waiting, and hopefully eventually someone will come and take a few books off of my stack. Take a load off. Help me out. Chip in. You get it? I am sure you do. Now if only other people did as well.  God doesnt give you more than you can handle. I wonder sometimes if He thinks the load he's giving me is being more evenly distributed than it is... Maybe he can review my case :)

8 years at the same job!

 I will say this about my work. No matter what is said, word gets around. Words also get twisted and changed, and rumors fly like well I don't know kites? I think co-workers are like a second family, not like to the point where you want to invite them over for Thanksgiving dinner... More like your around them enough that you are more than likely to have seen a bad side of them, and learned some annoyances. Chances are they were grumpy or depressed or pissed at some point and you have seen them at their worst. I think that makes it easier to get under each others skin and become annoyed. You get annoyed, you get over it, you move on. Your still co workers and you still get through. Like family, there are spats, you get over it move on and after it all your still family.  So do I always love my co workers or getting up early, or when someone is rude to me, or when I don't make any money... OF COURSE NOT. I have good days and I have bad days. Today it was raining, I would have ...

The Lady In Red

  T he Frisco festival was this weekend. Fun times. Free rides, well this year half the rides were free. A band playing live and just fun all around. We always go of course, any time anything is free, were there!  Since we are not cool Destiny went with some friends and not us. Bailey was staying the night with a buddy so the 2 girls that were home, I told could bring a friend... Fun times.  At one point they were waiting in line for a slide/funhouse ride, after a certain point of waiting in line they were finally up to the part with the sign: At the bottom the sign says "If you are in the red sorry you cannot ride the ride"  Hannah is standing there, and she is looking quite concerned after a while... She looks at me and she says "mama, Lauren cannot ride this ride." then she points to the sign.  Oh yes, Lauren is VERY MUCH so over the green line... Heck Lauren is taller than Hannah so I am thinking what is your deal girl??!  Hannah then looks ...
