He was 9. He was at a friends home. A great climbing tree, about three stories in the backyard. His friends little Sis always had a big crush on him. I guess I am told that she started chasing him in the tree telling him she Loved Him. She was 2 years younger and ewe a GIRL, a tomboy and use to climbing that tree. Well he was past the second story roof line when he fell and my Friend, the Mom said she was doing dishes looking out the window as my son sailed down right before her eyes and splat! Blood everywhere.

Me I was on a soccer field with my DD for PeeWee soccer. My friend comes up next to me on the field (pre-cell phone days for me) and I'm like Hi Kathy. Then it dawns on me why is she here and the look on her face. She had DS in the car and a towel that beyond gross covering most of his face. Well we swapped my kids out, she took my DD and me, son to the ER. By the Grace of God he had completely sunk his teeth through his bottom lip. Other than banged up and sore. He still has those slight scars on his bottom lip but man that could have ended badly.

Yikes. Sounds like a scary mom moment, and I bet she was horrified that it happened at her house!

And now that we are speaking of the Original Parent Trap I'm going to have to pull it out soon and watch it again. The reboot of the Parent Trap is fine just not the same.

It's really not the same, and I don't like Lindsey Lohan.

The Hobby Lobby by me has loads of Christmas stuff out now and they have a large and varied selection of trees.

I went to one once and wasn't thrilled and the employees didn't seem friendly.

Room for a 5th *hitchhiker* ???

No prob if you're bringing wine. Note to self kick boys out of their rooms the weekend before Thanksgiving and give them a good deep cleaning, make sure to put clean sheets on the pull out and wash sleeping bags

8lb. 8oz., 1lb. 4oz., and 7lb. 13oz. here.
One of DWifeys cousins had a 14lb.+ baby son...and, not a c-section.

The like is for your dw and her cousin for being so strong

And then rained all day again today with Wind. We went an entire month without more than a 1/3 inch of rain. Then the monsoon rain last week which we were still soggy from and now 3 days of rain. Yep that riverwalk might turn into a skating rink.

Slingshot unpacked.

Use it well

Hobby Lobby is my last resort if I can't find it elsewhere. It is an awesome store just wish they were awesome in other ways.

I've never been to a Hobby Lobby--not sure if we have those out here. Craft stores in my area are MIchaels and A. C. Moore. Michaels is my favorite.

Sympathy like for both of you. I've been lucky so far older ds 3 ER trips 2 times just a couple of stitches and 3rd time sprained wrist but my younger ds just one trip but is was a doozy both bones in his wrist were broken from a monkey bar dare. At least he did it on the day the trauma orthopedist wasn't busy or he would have been in the hospital a couple of days. He got released just after midnight. Had he had to wait for a regular orthopedist surgery would have been done the first thing the next morning and would have had a one night stay.

The X when it is released should be about $1100

I like both but it depends on who has the better sale on what I'm looking for as to which one I like better.

 

[Figgy1]

I would love that . . .

and you can have it!

I'm not really a fan of bird as food. Just Meh. I don't dislike it but yeah Meh. I do cook with a good chunk of white meat chicken but it is because certain recipes for our comfort food call for it and it is healthier. Still better than Tofu.

 

[Figgy1]

Oy. Hope you took a nap.

THNX but nope it was girls and tea coffee afternoon.

 

[Figgy1]

38 degrees. What the heck!

Sending warm hugs xoxo

We haven't told him yet because we didn't get the info from them directly. If they sent it to the old school and asked for his records, I'm sure it's true, but we don't want to get his hopes up just in case. We'll tell him once they notify us directly.

I don't blame you. Sending some pixie dust word comes soon

 

[Figgy1]

Wow....there are no words!

There are lots of words, none of them family friendly do they do exist

Good morning my dh's last night was last night and he's able to take the rest of the week off to get used to the daylight again. The good with the bad.

Well, we didn't hear anything. So DH called the new school...they said they get word from the parents, not the committee...they won't get word until WE tell them. Which is weird. So DH explains that the resource director at the old school said it had been approved and someone had called HER to get some information so they could place him in the right class. But, both the principal at the new school and the resource director who told us it had been approved are off on Wednesdays. So we can't get either one on the phone. So DH called the committee I think? and SHE said, yes it's been approved, but it has to go through the proper channels, so it will be next week at least before we get the official word. So he won't be starting next Monday. So she confirmed that it's not a no, but we still have to play the waiting game for some reason.

Congratulations! Welcome to the land of the living again. Does this mean you will no longer have to keep the hours of a vampire?
