Day 8

Saw this today

So Cute!

Doctor, Doctor

I spent the entire morning yesterday at the doctor. Saw a pulmonary sleep specialist and ran all sorts of tests. Results to follow.

Spent this morning running Middle Schooler to his routine doctor visit.

It started doing this on the way home and hasn't stopped yet!

The kids are so bummed - they don't even want to go out and play in it!

Days 4-7

Sorry for the combo of days. The week has gotten away from me and I haven't (gasp) had my camera out much. We haven't been doing much that is noteworthy, just a lot of running around with no schedules to keep and enjoying that. Some highlights:

• Sleepovers
• Baking Cookies
• Watching Movies
• Trips to the Library
• Crafting
• Some spring cleaning
• Hoping to take in a movie tomorrow

Til then......

NOT so Funny Friday!

I'm stomping my foot like a 2 year old and saying 'NOT FAIR'

This is NO way to begin Spring Break

Friday Funny

Okay, so my dh and I keep having this 'discussion' about where the TV remote (for our Master Bedroom) should be kept. I can never find it when I'm already in bed and want to turn the TV off. We had been discussing this for some time when Murphy's Law butt in and all of a sudden the remote stopped working properly. Soooooooooooooo, I asked dh to buy a new universal remote because the other one was just getting too frustrating to use.

This is what he bought

What's the problem you say? It has all sorts of great features? Easy to read you say? Well, it should be. The first picture didn't do it justice. Look at the next picture. I've included the original remote for comparison.

How do you renew yourself?

'Chip' the Panda (belongs to my artist)...

...has a Spa Day!

First a nice bath

Then in for a fluff and dry

'Does this ride spin? I get dizzy easily!'

I'll miss you while I'm gone!

If there's a Will...........

I keep doing things to encourage Spring to arrive. I think it may be working although we have snow in the forecast, I'm hopeful it won't accumulate. Today it's raining and most of the snow is melting.

I got scolded yesterday by my sister for having a 'Winter' flag displayed, and told to take it down at once. I looked at her in that funny way you look at people when you think they've been hitting the 'sauce'.

This is the flag in question...........

Okay, I'm willing to give her the 'corncob' pipe and the top hat, but who ever heard of a snowman with a red beard, wearing green and standing under a rainbow...............in Chicago???
