Dee Dee's Adventures in Canada...Ay!

This is an excerpt from an email that Dee Dee sent about Canada. I am LMAO!!!! Yeah, don't think that we will be making the trek to Canada until July or until all the snow melts. I still laugh out loud everytime I read this email.


Anita, the VP called from Calgary. She told the office we are to be getting blizzard conditions in 24 - 48 hours. Great, because it is already supposed to be 24 below ZERO Saturday night, ladies and that is in FARENHEIT.

I have a few questions:

1. What the firetruck is a blizzard?
2. Where is the liquor store?

5. See question #1.
6. See question #2.

Tara can't wait. She is ready for a "couch" day. I had to ask what that was, because I couldn't understand what she said when she said the word "couch." It sounded like she kept saying she can't wait to take a "coach" day. So, I thought, a Coach? Like the purse? Like what Cinderella rode in? Is a Coach day something Canadians call a comp day?

Geeeeeez......... Oh I get it!!!! A SOFA day!

Snacktime!

I found this apple & apple corer on the counter after Aubrey got up from her nap...maybe I should start feeding her more often. I heard her open the fridge but she usually doesn't get her own food out until now. So we split an apple today at snacktime and it was "Nummy"!!

In Memory of Brad..

Those of you that wish to pay their last respects to Brad please leave your comments here or call him on his cell, apparently he is on his deathbed with the flu. Many a times in the last couple of days he has said that he was dying-such a man, can't handle a little sniffle & fever.

House of Sickness

So Brad wasn't feeling so well last night, he went to bed with a fever. Woke up feeling even worse so I took him to the doctor and he has the FLU. Even thought we all got flu shots, minus the Beckster, he got it anyway. Luckily I was able to schedule Beck for an appointment across the hall with the pediatrician at the same time and his viral infection has now turned into a horrible sinus infection. We got Tamiflu for Brad & Antibiotics for Beck. Maybe one day we will all be well again.

Sleeping Beauties!!

My boys catching a few zzzz's this afternoon.

Can't see the hand in front of my face.

So Brad said that I finally could look into Lasik this year as we maxed out our flexible spending account because I am blind as a bat, really. So I called a location here in Austin to have that free consultation to see if I am eligible for Lasik. I was told that I had to wait 6 weeks after I stopped breastfeeding because of the hormonal changes that occur during pregnancy & breastfeeding. Are you kidding me? Ugh!! So frustrating...on top of everything I have been wearing my glasses since Saturday when the red eye started. I am sick of wearing my glasses already, wish that I could pop my contacts in or better yet see without anything. One of these days...

Are you freakin' kidding me?

I have pink eye!! What, you say. Yep, I woke up this morning with my eye matted shut and I stumbled to the bathroom and realized that I have a bright red gross eye with green ooze. So I called my doc and got some antibiotic eye drops. Hopefully I won't share this with the kids as freely as they shared their viral infection with me. So I am going to put off going to the gym that Brad & I joined on Thursday night for a few days til this clears up. Check out Lifetime Fitness.
Brad says that it is nicer than Sky Gym in Tulsa. I have to get in better shape, I realized the other day that I have been either pregnant or breastfeeding (minus a few months before I got prego with Beck) since December 2004. That is like 3 years folks-and I plan to breastfeed Beck until August or until he starts biting.
