What do you get after a long week?

So, last night, I asked my hubby to pick up the boys from daycare, take them home, give Connor a practice Spelling test, and put them to bed....

When I came home late last night.... This is what I came home to:



Now that is the biggest damn hamster I ever did see!!!

Oh, don't worry... He didn't eat the hamsters... He laid on them!

They are all okay

Ike

Just a quick note from us... We are all well and safe. Ike did just a predicted and went up the I35 line, but stayed East. WE did get some gusty winds, but nothing too uncommon with bad thunderstorms. We didn't even get very much rain. So, we spend our day inside drawing and watching college football. Nothing overly exciting...

Tomorrow, Mark is back to work prepping for training in two weeks. How sucky is that? We had him home for 1 day! Guess I can't complain because at least he was home for one day. Gone for a year, home and working, gone for another year... This sucks!

Anyway... We are all safe. Please keep your prayers for down South... They did get massive damage in Galveston and Houston. Love to you all...

A little more stress in my life...

So I need more stress in my life so it seems. I went to the doctor today b/c I had heart flutters. Nothing totally bad, but enough to make me feel wird and my stomach to want to throw up... So I did the EKG... Normal... Chest X-ray... Normal... I am doing a 24 hour test on Thursday, so we will see what it tells us before we go to the cardiologist. Woo Hoo...

So, I ask the doctor... What do you think it is? She thinks it is stress. Ummm... I left the high paying long hours job 2 months ago... My Mom hasn't changed, Mark is still in the field (aka gone)... What is there to be stressed over? She gave me a med that has too many side effects... I am NOT going there.

So I guess I need a little more stress... Apparently, my life is not complete without it. LOL

Halloween Costumes

So... Today we were in Target wit ha friend, and Braedan found his PERFECT Halloween costume. So all day long he asked about. When Connor came home, we headed out to Target to look at the costumes... Well, thanks to grandma, the boys got early Halloween costumes... Connor is Commander Fox and our dear little Braedan is Darth Vader... And Darth... He lights us. So tonight we are wearing our costumes... I am surrounded by Star Wars... Dum. Dum da dum dum da dum dum da dum dum....

Off to the ER

Okay... This blog is old, so I will combine two in one... First, Braedan is okay. After flying off the bed backwards, he cracked his head open on out antique dresser. Six hours later, he was getting staples in his head. Sigh... Many of you know this from my blogg on MySpace, so I won't go into details...

Anyway, he's doing well and recovering... We will see how tomorrow goes as he will have the stples removed... Bless his little heart. He's a wee bit (let me emphasize wee here) more cautious now when there may be danger. Silly boy! He was ready to go back to school this morning though. I was too... It gave me a great chance to relax... A much needed relax too. I feel much better emotionally now that I've had sleep. And before I laid down, I left my anxiety with God. He is amazing!

Well, I am off to pick up kiddos. Love ya'll!
