Post Halloween

Just a quick post.

Niece #1 and Catcherdude had a blast at the lil halloween party thrown at his TKD. They played games. Ate. Had prizes. Played more games. Got grab bags. Left. Prefect amount of time. Didn't have to do all the T or T crap. Nice!

I took my camera..but no pictures. I do have one of neice before we left.

So that is the sum of this Halloween. I am glad it is over! Now on to Thanksgiving. As anymore what does Halloween mean to me? The start of the holiday season!!

Hallo-weenie Day!

I can not believe it is the last day of October. Next thing we know it will be Thanksgiving, Christmas, 2009! We really do not get kids around here. Well we do, I take that back. Older children. Too old and no costumes. So the light is out here. Nuff! I am opting instead of taking niece #1 and Catcher dude to a party being held at his TKD. That should be good anuff. Then I do not have to worry and all the hassle and crap related to this dumb..get on my nerves..p.i.t.a wonderful holiday.

Today kid has another day off. Well he has a 1/2 day. Waste of time going. Classes are finished. Grades due yesterday. New class schedule for Monday, so waste of time day. They did actually plan the rewards party for that dumb ass, p.i.t.a, junk for sale, didn't make squat for the school great school fundraiser they held last month. But the students parents, were sucked in required to sell 12 items to go to this "party". I was more than willing to just skip it, and let Catcher Dude stay home for the waste of the day 1/2.

Still not moving much, medicine is working. Just slower than I would like. I have tons to do. But no pick and go to do it. Oh well. It will get done. soon.

Photobucket Pictures from last Halloween when he volunteered at a neighborhood haunted house. Which as I remember he got deathly ill that evening from being in the cold and rain and couldn't go to school next day as he was running a 102 temp.

Favorite Day...

That's right. No School. Which why am I so excited? Doesn't seem like they have went all that much this month. Out of a possible 23 days, they attended 18. So it should be the norm by now. But none the less I had the boy home today and we actually got along and went out in public..shh..together. But I am sure that was because mom had all the credit cards cash. In a matter of 24 hours, I dropped little over $200 on this child on clothes & shoes. I once again am haunted reminded about a conversation I had over a year ago. [about the conversation] So first it was shoes.

Now clothes. *thud* He has fallen into that category. What category? The child that has to have the certain types, the certain brand, the certain size, the certain color. *thud*

I decided to put my big girl pants on and deal .. deal by not saying one word. I totally left the decisions up to him. I once added a thought and left it at that. It took 161 months for him to start caring about what he wore. So I guess I did pretty good getting away with it as long as I did.

But anyway we had a fun day. Added to his wardrobe for the fall/winter. Few laughs. Some eats. Yeah! All good.

Now what to do Friday?.. ah yes, home again. Do they ever go to school? Home Friday. Go to school Monday, new trimester starts so new classes, and off Tuesday for election.

home.school.home.school.

Geez. Give me time to miss um! [totally a joke, as I always like him home]

Someone close the refrigerator door!!

Oh it is!!.. that is the temperature outside. Brrrr.. yeah so that is totally helping my sinus'. I am thinking we are going to have to break down and heat this house. The thermostat reads 61 in here. Outside temp 30. Catcherdude is going to freeze them balls legs off today after school. They are having their annual Halloween Classic 1.5 mile Fall Run. I was going to go up and watch, maybe, depending on how I feel later.

I am though off to the doctors today. I am one of those get a list of worries, concerns, ailments, things worth paying the dump butted nice co-pay for, and then make the appointment. If I can get a flu shot, and still have this cement up my nose, and the insurance will pay for it, I think I will get that as well. Plus all the other items on my list of things to bombard the DR with today.

Other than that I am still on sick leave and not doing much else. All the house will sit and wait. All of kids run me here ... run me there will be passed by. Though I still might go watch the Fall Run.

So hopefully by mid-morning I have a kickin jack hammer some kickin' medicine to bust this open. Well I am sitting here shaking from the cold, so I am going to hot steam shower my head, dress, and get off to doctor land.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Okay so I am home now. This really was not my day [again!] I got stuck sitting on the hwy for way to long as yet ANOTHER accident closed yet ANOTHER hwy down. This is getting absolutely ridiculous!! I left way early in hopes to sneaking in early so I could get possible maybe shouldn't have went anyway get up to CD school to open the cart for lunch. But instead I sat trapped on the hky. Couldn't move. Wasn't moving. Turn the motor off and cleaned the inside of the truck up stuck in traffic kind of trapped. I finally get to the office.. waited, waited, and waited some more. But finally got in to see him. Got my medicine. But oh wait, what is this? No more paper scripts we just fax them straight away from the office. Yeah! Right! The pharmacy never got it.

Dr: Yes they did.
Pharmacy: No we didn't.

Dr: Yes they did.
Pharmacy: No we didn't.

Dr: Yes they did.
Pharmacy: No we didn't.

SOMEONE GET ME MY SCRIPT!! I am dying here. Finally after starting this fight at 10 a.m. I get my wonderful, glorous meds at 3. So I have them. Taking them. Phone again. Ugh!

Well now Catcher Dude missed his bus to his Halloween Classic 1.5 mile Fall Run. So he is all upset, and cold [whaddatellakiddo] and misses out on all the fun. So he is on hell normal bus home. Apparently to be crabby the rest of the afternoon.

Monday Moan

It is Monday. I still feel like sh*t. DH didn't put Catcher Dudes jeans in dryer like I asked and he said, "okay". Out of tea. Have to take kid to school because said jeans. kid only has 2 pairs of jeans? seriously? I don't want the school week to start. I don't want to be out of bed. I am thinking everyone back to bed. screw it. no clothes to wear sounds like a great reason to go back to bed. but i can't breathe in bed. can't breathe out of bed, but alas not the point. there is the bus. oh screw the day.

Weekend over? Seriously?

Weekends just don't last long enough! Friday was errands by plenty.

  • Ran by catcher dudes school, to pick up a check, which wasn't there. Of Course!!
  • Then we went to Borders to pick up the next book in the series for CD. New Moon
  • Then to Bed & Bath for CD bought nothing.
  • Had mall lunch .. blah!
  • Shopping at American Eagle for CD. Actually got him some Christmas Gifts.
  • Shopping at Sports Authority for CD. Had to get new cup and catcher's glove. I was saving the glove for Christmas, but dad convinced me he had to have now to break in before season starts.

Well so after running around like a mad woman on Friday with dh. We had dinner with my mother and after that I decided I seriously needed a drink. Came home to find ice box downstairs empty so I sent DH back out for me a bottle of wine. yeah me!! I drank myself to a sound snooze. slept great.

Only to awaken Saturday morning with this horrible sinus thing. After that all plans of nothing really turned to nothing!! Even the honey dew list from post before.. sat. I have laid in bed all weekend. I still feel like crappy-poo. I did rasie out of my bed to make chicken soup. But that was it.

I am not sure I can cope with the ahead week. Man!?! Do I dislike being ill. But I am glad it came about during weekend. weekend with not a thing to do. weekend. FW had a sinus thing going on a lil bit ago and was suggusted drinking lemonade with vodka. I wonder if she ever tried it, and if it worked? hmmm ...

So that was my weekend. zero. zip. nadda.
