Should I feel guilty?

My husband was going to take my daughter, Lindsey rock climbing but changed his mind. he wants to get her a harness first. This of course makes sense. He says he wants to go without her (with a co-worker). Normally that would be fine but he has worked late everynight this week.

I have been having a pity party that I haven't had a break from the kids. I am the type of person who LOVES her kids but needs a break. I have friends who don't want a "girls night out". But boy I live for them. I love Relief Society for that reason but I'm in primary. sigh! I did hang out with a friend last night with all the kids. So the two of us had 11 kids between us....one of which was jsut a neighborhood kid. So I haven't had a break from kids.

So when he said he wanted to go. I was a fence sitter and told him I would think about it. So while Iw as thinking about it he decided NOT to go since I had a hard time making up my mind. Thinking I would be mad. Well, I decided after checking with a friend when she could go do something. She said "tomorrow night works best". So I called hubby back and he said he wasn't goint to go. I told him to go and I would have a GNO tomorrow. He then said "no, I'll jsut come home". I kept trying to get him to go. He DOESN'T do fun things for himself much. Not that I do either, lol! But he can do shopping and stuff without kids...I can't.

So he will be home about 8pm and I feel like it is my fualt he doesn't get to go have "fun". He better not pout either. It is his choice not to go.

Facial cellulitis

Leave it to me to get the weird things! This is the second time in a mont that I have been "blessed" with this strange ailment! The last day of antibiotics (shot) last time was March 18th. I had started with Augmentin and that didn't work. They gave me a good shot of rochepin (a peanut butter shot) and that seemed to make a big difference quickly. I went back and got another, after the second I noticed remarkable improvement. I was SO excited! Then on Monday it started foming back. So it lasted two weeks. The next week we just did Rocephin shots. OUCH! I went round and round with the insurance company about an IV versus shots. The doctor recommended the IV because it would be less pain. I opted for the shot when I realized that the ER visit for 5 days would be about $400-500 a day. OUCH. So I got 5 rocephin shots that week. It was so much better by that Friday (18). YEAH! Fast forward to this past week. I was having similar pain and wrote it off as a sin

Goodbye Nala (graphic warning)

  The past 22hrs have been excruciating. 22hrs ago we were sitting down to a late dinner after helping buck hay. Ramen Noodles, the dinner of champions, ya know. We heard this HORRIBLE noise. None of us had a clue what it was. Someone said "It sounds like someone is dieing. Little did we know it was OUR dog! Scott went out to investigate. He was gone for a few minutes and when he came in, he had this look. I said "Do I need to come?". "yes" was the answer I popped up and threw shoes on. When I went outside I saw a car in the middle of the road with a dog BEHIND it. My thought was it was Danny and Nala was sitting there worried. When I went up the boy (17) driving said "she ran out in front of us". It took a minute to realize he was refering to my dog. She was on the ground mangled. Her back legs were a twisted mess. Not much blood but you could hear her troubled breathing. I thought the problem was just her legs. Later I found out d

Brazil

Just over three weeks ago, I recieved a phone call as I was getting out of the car to pick up pizza. It was a interesting conversation.... Scott: Uh, Hon, they want me to go to Brazil. Me: REALLY!!!??? WOW! Scott: ya, the catch is it is for TWO WEEKS. Me: I WANNA GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Scott: you don't even have a passport. Scott served his mission in Sao Paulo South and came home 21yrs ago! He has forgotten a lot of his Portuguese. His company wants him to go set up a firm down there with their products. Scott is a no brainer chioce...been there done that type thing. I have asked him many times he wanted to go back. He was never very excited about it. When the phone call came and his voice was exuberant, I KNEW he HAD to go. Two weeks alone with the kids or not, he NEEDED to go. I thought I would solve the no passport issue fast and said "you can be there for work, then I'll meet up with you!". Sounded perfect! It would take me two weeks minimum to get my pa
