A peak inside my brain. Be very afraid....


~ ~ ~

Just finished ironing big P on daughter's shirt. Will put black paint around her eye. She will be a....wait for it....BLACK-EYED PEA. Har.

There are six little boys playing with 294,120 Matchbox cars outside on my sidewalk.

A black cat just ran across the street in front of me. On halloween. eeeek.

A lot of good the extra hour of sleep does when my internal alarm clock goes off anyway.

Half the clocks in my house are pushed back and half are not. I have no idea what time it really is.

I just totally panicked. Thought I was out of index cards. Whew! Found one tucked away...Crisis averted.

World Series (Go Yankees!) + Monday Night Football (Go Saints!) = Perfect night.

What?!? It's only Tuesday?!?

I burned the roof of my mouth last night and it really hurts today. Just wanted you all to know that.

Feeling very suffocatingish.

A friend told me today I had the attention span of a gnat. Is that bad?

I have issues

I went to the dentist Monday to get my crown replaced. I have told you before that I love my dentist personally. I just hate him professionally.

Monday was no exception. It went something like this.....

Walking back with Dentist. He hollers over his shoulder to the gal at the front desk to "Go ahead and flip the switch please." I say something like "You think I'm gonna' bolt don't you? So you're telling her to lock the door?!?" When actually it had something to do with turning on the switch for nitrous in the building.... OK.....whatever.....I know I have a star on my chart....

Dentist gives me novacaine shot
Me: "Oooowwww. At urt."
(i.e. "Owww. That hurt.")

Dentist: "Sorry. Sometimes the shots in the lower jaw hurt more. Just breathe your nitrous."

Dentist makes impression. I mistakenly think it's for my crown. I find out later it's not. Feel obligated to tell him how much I hate having that gooky stuff in my mouth. I proceed to make gagging and spitting noises once he pulls the plaster out of my mouth. It feels like he has sucked my brain out through the roof of my mouth.

Dentist leaves room to let novacaine start working.....Waiting for him to return.....Did I doze off?....Thinking I may or may not have just snored out loud.

Turn iPod up louder. Listen to Gavin DeGraw. Decide I want to marry him. Wait - I'm already married.

Dentist drills and jabs and pokes and scrapes and does all that other yucky stuff.

Dentist makes impression for my crown

Me: "Oooof ahreay ohn eee ooky uff!!"
(i.e. "You've already done the gooky stuff!!")

Dentist: "This is a double gooky stuff visit. The first one was for your temporary. This one is for your crown."

Me: "Hummmmph."
(i.e. "Hummmmph.")

Me: "Er is ool unning don hi outh. I ahn ooling."
(i.e. "There is drool running down my mouth. I am drooling.")

Dentist: "There is no drool running down your mouth. It just feels like it."

Me: "I ahn ooling."
(i.e. "I am drooling.")

Dentist: "No you're not."

Me: "Hummmmph."
(i.e. "Hummmmph."


inhale inhale inhale

Realize I must have been shivering because they have covered me up with a blanket. WHAT? Think it's weird they have a blanket. Wonder if they ever wash it. Start thinking about germs and other people's spit.

inhale inhale inhale

Turn iPod up louder.....remember that I love Bryan Adams.....I may or may not be humming out loud.

Me: "Iss he ahhhmos uhn?"
(i.e. "Is he almost done?")

Dental assistant: "Yep, more than half way done."

Me: "AFF AYYY UHN?!? Isss aht ahhhl?"
(i.e. "HALF WAY DONE?!? Is that all?")

inhale inhale inhale

Decide that I think The Cure is the greatest band ever.

Dentist leaves the room. Realize I am repeatedly asking the dental assistant what time it is. Thinking she is lying to me when she tells me it is 8:45 am becasue I am convinced it is closer to 1:45 pm.

inhale inhale inhale

Dentist finally finished. Tells me to come back in two weeks to get final crown put back in.

I. Can. Hardly. Wait.

It's Tuesday

I know you are so impressed with my creative title for today's post...

First....
Rob & Kathryn found out yesterday that all of Tanner's testing came back NEGATIVE. His cancer was isolated and it had not spread. THAT, my bloggy friends, is God working. It is prayers answered. They are still trying to identify exactly what type of cancer the tumor was and determine an appropriate treatment plan. But, this is such good, good, news.

In other random news....

It's back to the Bronx for the World Series. Chase Utley is a cutie and has been tearing it up. But I still love my boyfriend, #2. Go Yankees.

The New Orleans Saints remain unbeaten. Seriously people. The SAINTS.

52 days until Christmas. Dear gravy. That is scary.

I went to the dentist yesterday to get my crown replaced. That is scary too. More on this later when I can talk about it without having to breathe in a brown paper bag. Seriously people....I have issues.

The moon has been full and bright and just gorgeous. The end.

When did November get here?

That is all.

Have a good day people.

Play nice.

Sweet Tom

Cooper's assignment was to make tail feathers for a turkey. He could use anything. Fabric, paper, beads, etc. Anything goes.


Due date: Today. (aka: Two days after Halloween. )

Easy enough.




PS - The Butterball turkey hotline opens today. Gobble.

Pause



LORD, you have assigned me my portion and my cup;

you have made my lot secure.

The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places;

surely I have a delightful inheritance.

I will praise the LORD, who counsels me;

even at night my heart instructs me.

I have set the LORD always before me.

Because he is at my right hand,

I will not be shaken.


~Psalm 16:5-8
