Space Trip














I couldn't resist including a pic of my youngest sons trip to the
Dentist this week.
Our last visit to the dentist office for a checkup was horrible.
You could hear my little three year old screaming all the way out
to the waiting room (so my older kids informed me).
I was more than nervous about the return visit.
I brought in reinforcements.
My husband left work early to join us, just in case.
Our son, Joshua, had a cavity *ugh* that needed a filling.
Our dentist offers laughing gas for all his procedures.
He asked my son if he wanted to be like an astronaut
and take a "space trip." The little guy was so relaxed and calm
throughout the entire process.
He wore sunglasses to shield the light from his eyes, watched
a cartoon and enjoyed his "space trip", as the Doctor calls it.

New Blog Topic



Well, I have changed the subject title of my blog to "conform" if you 
will, to what I am really doing with it right now.
I am actually in a blogging phase, I think. I mean hope. 
Whatever, I'm actually blogging and I don't want the subject line of my blog title to be a constant reminder that:
I have not moved forward from writing a few rough drafts.
I have not enrolled for another set of helpful college classes.
I have not looked at my first few stories since I wrote them.
Having admitted that, I feel much better.
Buuuut, I do believe that blogging my routines, experiences, thoughts, etc. will be a catalyst of sorts to get me back in the groove of writing.

Having said that, today I cleaned. Just cleaned. I didn't wear gloves either. Now my finger tips hurt. Too much bleach, I guess.
I'm waiting for some guests to arrive, although I did not get a confirmation of the time change.

Hmmm...if they don't come, I think I'll just finish my loads of laundry today. That will mean that I'll have more time to finish a few other projects tomorrow that I haven't gotten to.

A Good Day

I haven't stopped for one moment today. 
I'm exhausted, but I think it's the good kind.
Took my daughter to the doctors. 
Returned an item at the mall, and found three better ones. 
I'm wearing two of them now.
.............
I was just enjoying the moment. See, I got to shop a  l  o  n  e . Aaahhh!
Spent some time with my sister-in-law and two nieces. 
Had the children fold six baskets of laundry.
All-in-all, it was a good day.

p.s. I'm thinking of adding pictures to this blog. 
In fact, I'm thinking it's not going to be about my writing, or lack thereof. Ugh, we'll see.

Recessive Traits and Blogs

It seems as though I visit my own blog every six months.
Consistency should be a new years resolution for me.
I am stranded without a car today, and although I thought this would force
me into some housework that always needs to be done. 

Here I sit at the computer.
 

I'm wondering why I don't blog more, about anything. At least I would be writing, right?
Ugh, consistency, darn you. I must have the recessive trait for it. LoL.
I thought I would write a little about how my day is going so far. 

As I think about it, it's been so dull that I can hardly stand to relive it even for the sake of this confounded blog.
 

Once again the ramblings of my inner thoughts will have to suffice.
Have a great day...despite the color of the clouds.
