Damn I hate being sick. Friday I started not feeling well, took Sat off of work, went in on Sunday for about 3.5 hours and then had to leave cuz I was just too damned ill. Also took today off of work. Going to the Dr this afternoon. Probably just the flu, but after missing this much work already, I need to go get checked out ( Read more... )

I am so glad that today is election day. No more hearing the ads on radio or seeing them on t.v. At least for the next year or so till the next election cycle gears up, anyway. I'm a bit tired of it seeming like every conversation anyone has is about politics. Politics have just gotten so damned ugly in recent years. People get so rabidly one ( Read more... )

So Kiki has the Croup again. It's that time of year and she has been really religious about getting it when the weather turns colder. There are a couple of viruses flying around town and she decided to pick one up. Probably from Papa since he was sick with it last week. Seems to be an overall lethargy, stomach ache, diarrhea and fever. Can last ( Read more... )

Damn I love Montana. Yesterday was 56 degrees, this morning I woke up to a couple of inches of snow on the ground. All of the trees are covered in white and it is just so pretty. This is our 3rd or 4th snow of the season already and it's only Oct. It's actually kinda early to be getting as many snowfalls as we've had ( Read more... )

Well, life's been interesting lately. Getting used to being woken up to 'Nana...want CEREAL!!!' , no more naps on days off cuz a beautiful 2.5 yr old has decided that naps are unneeded, stepping over toys galore, listening to the dog go haywire cuz...omg, his baby is back and she'll feed him cuz heaven knows he hasn't been fed at all since she ( Read more... )

Once again, I was fooled. For the past 6 months, Kiwi has been living here in town with Shauna. Shauna had stepped up and said she wanted to be her mother. We let her. She got an apartment, was working, and wound up meeting a really great guy, Kyle. He is every mother's dream for their daughter. Not rich, but extremely hard working (80 hrs a ( Read more... )

Work is quite....ChalleNGing. Working at Youth ChalleNGe is both exhillarating and exhausting at the same time. (And yes, the NG in ChalleNGe is supposed to be capitalized. Cuz the program is the brainchild of the National Guard ( Read more... )

Been a long time sine I've written, I guess. So I'll fill in those who are interested, the rest of you....carry on ( Read more... )

So yeah, life has been crazy out here in the wilds of Montana. Where to begin ( Read more... )

Damn, my mouth hurts. I went in to get a crown yesterday morning. I also had a tooth that needed to be pulled (the one I broke on our anniversary at the Marakesh last year) but wasn't planning on doing it then. But, the Dr thought it would be a pretty quick/simple extraction. Wrong. It took 40 minutes for him to get the damned thing out. It ( Read more... )
