and the sky cried...
Ok, so saying that the sky is crying is a little dramatic, but hey, "it's raining" is so typical. If it were just a few degrees colder we'd be having a blizzard right now. Yup, it's just about that time of year again kids....we're actually supposed to have snow by thursday, although, probably not enough to get the snowmobiles out yet.
In my last blog I said I would explain to you about D's blood test. Last Thursday I took him to the doctor's office here in town, the doc said that his nurse would do a good job of drawing his blood (he's having his blood sugars tested) I had asked if I should take him to the hospital lab because I'm sure they draw blood on more children there. She poked the needle into his left arm, wriggling it around trying to "find" the vein. NO luck there. She then moved to his right arm...poked the needle in, wriggled it around trying to "find" his vein there. NO LUCK again. I was fairly angry at this point. He didn't cry too bad, just big crocodile tears. The nurse there said that she just couldn't find a vein in his arm and I would have to take him to the hospital to get it done.....hmmmmmmmmmm, I swear I asked about this to begin with!!!!! So anyway, we went there this morning, the nurse there was AWESOME!!! It only took her 2 minutes from the time she started talking to him, she got the vein the first try :) D even watched her and didn't get very upset. The funny thing is, she sent him out with a handful of suckers and then she asked what he was having his blood drawn for...the look on her face was priceless, her own daughter has diabetes. She made a comment about how they really should have sugar-less suckers in there. She gave him a bunch of stickers too :)
After the blood ordeal we headed to WalMart :) We bought a fresh pineapple, mango and lemons. Em has the idea that we have to make lemon bars with the lemons, so, I guess we'll probably be baking later. I just want to cut into the pineapple as does Alex. When we finished at WalMart, we headed to G's Pizzeria. One of the waitresses there, Anna, is in my Spanish class, she's very funny, I wish she were in more of my classes.
Well, I just remembered that I have 2 chapters in my math book to get done, some kind of multiplication and division of polynomials and other junk like that. Something to do with perfect squares too. I hate math!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh yeah, Sarah, have you seen the video taped version of "Cats"? We're watching it today for the third time :) Em is hooked on Rum-tum-tugger.
Y'all enjoy opening day of rifle season,
Love Ya :)
