Well, today is Jason's 10th birthday and Becky's 24th. Preparations are being made to go to Roller Valley Roller Skating Rink later on for the party. Jason's extremely excited and well, so is Becky. She's just a big kid, you know. We just have to wait for John to get home after a 4:30 meeting so that we can go pick up presents, wrap them, and then go. He'd better not be late. All of thise has me deciding that Madison must age more slowly. I'm feeling old, and kids grow up toooooo fast.
I had a weird nasty pain earlier, too. I got up to use the bathroom and get some tea when my right shoulder started aching and cramping to the point that it was making me feel terribly nauseous. I went into the bedroom as quickly as I could to lie down, and it took a bit, but the pain went away. I don't know what the hell it was, but it left me still feeling a little queasy and off. I've been overusing the arm lately, and I guess it's complaining. I really don't want to see a doctor about it, because, like Mikel, I'm tired of doctors. I went to way more than enough back after my accident and I'd like to avoid them if at all possible. Hopefully the pain will not reoccur. I have so much still left to do, and I refuse to leave it all to other people. Becky won't be able to help after today because she's going to be spending most of July with her mom, lucky thing. I'd love to take a road trip with them since they're going through the Southwest, which is somewhere I've always wanted to go. Someday, maybe. Mike's been clinging to her since he won't be seeing her all that time, and since he's still not feeling well, he's clingier than usual. I'll just have to make sure he gets lots of cookies coming up. It's amazing how well they work to distract him, at least temporarily.
I'm getting the sneaking suspicion that Mikel is planning on skating when we go to Roller Valley. I'm just waiting for the nagging session from Amber. Of course, this will spur him on to do it, which, no matter how many times you tell her, doesn't stop her. She just can't help it. Those two are always interesting to watch together, I'll say that. He's sure she just wants to ruin his fun, and she's sure that he's defiant just to annoy her. Round and round she goes, where she stops, nobody knows. Don't you love vicious circles?
jason,
pain,
