what the good doc ordered....

so today i broke down and decided to take mapboy to the doctor. our's has the day off, but our other friend is always willing to see us as well. knowing i was now paranoid about both rabies and swine, he ordered a series of tests resulting in a blood draw, throat swab, and nose swab. poor little guy. i treated him to a slushy..
then we headed to the doctor....there, our wonderful doc laughed as he thought about all the "fun" i've been having lately. it seems like one giant non-stop adventure. i think he could tell, i'd had enough of this fun...so after diagnosing my son with tonsellitis and prescribing meds + ice cream he looked at me and prescribed a getaway....

...ahh....doesn't that look nice!! i love vacationing at the beach. fly me to a beach and let me sit for 48 hours. just reading and watching the waves. this is soooo me........we have visited a few beaches on our excursions, but most of our trips are inland. hubby claims he'd be bored at a beach so these vacations aren't frequent....

in the meantime i'll just dream of running away to soak in some much needed sunshine, peace, quiet, and nothing - absolutely nothing....but if the good doc orders it shouldn't i do it?????

i despise politics. i never liked it, but i married a man fascinated with it. a man who wanted to be part of it all...and was, briefly. boy were our eyes opened... anyways...it seems like this election has several hot button topics. one of which is universal healthcare. my cousin started a blog called politics for mom and there have been several heated debates going on. i was reading several comments on healthcare. and frankly i was bothered! now, i don't know that a strict universal healthcare is the answer, but i do know that we have now doesn't work for the average person. here is our story.... hubby worked in a small business - 3 employees at the most that i can remember. we paid 1/2 our insurance..until it came to the point where our half each month was twice what we would pay if we were on our own. but for the owner it saved him money. so he agreed to cover ours in full. we were very grateful. i also know at times, that because of the healthcare cost, it was a struggle f...

the "calling"

okay - so it's been awhile since i've ranted...and it's time! it is beautiful outside and i'm sitting inside my makeshift office at the church. i am lucky enough to have a door that opens to the outside so it is wide open and i'm loving that. but as i'm working here today i feel the need to rant so enjoy.... being in my position i often have to ask people to help out. you know, volunteer to teach or work in the nursery or teach or hang out with the kids, you know - volunteer! i love all the responses i get. i am particularly fond of the "i don't like kids one" - it doesn't go over real well with me when they have 3 of their own. hmm??? but the one that really gets my goat is the "i don't feel called to that." argh...really!?!?!!?!? well, i didn't feel called to wipe my kids bottoms either, but it is a good thing i did it anyways. surprisingly, everyone feels called to the waterpark though! now, let me back up a ...
