The misses is in a wait and see mode. Her head is not as bad as it was but is not all better either. Even so, we’ll take it. Any relief is good news. It’ll be a week or two until we see the doc in Vail and three weeks until back to back appointments here in Denver. Let’s hope this is the beginning of the healing process for her.
A couple of items of interest from yesterday. First, the L.O.L.’s neighbor was walking by when we were sitting out front and after talking to her for a bit, she has agreed to give the daily evening shot to Bunkie the biting poodle. This is great news as now the misses only has to go down each morning. We didn’t know how we were going to get out of this (two trips every day to give a shot to the dog) and it just kind of came up in conversation. The misses is thrilled and so are we. Next up, I’m officially suspending unannounced political discussions from the blog as the misses says they give Grandma Dixie heart palpitations. This doesn’t mean all politics will be eliminated, but rather I will give you notice either in the post, like “in the next paragraph we’ll discuss the failure of blah blah blah” or “tomorrow I’ll talk about blah blah blah” so she can skip or bypass those portions of the blog. After all, we don’t want to cause anyone any discomfort when reading the daily post. On the other hand, we are coming into what will probably be the ugliest campaign ever seen in our history. Over 2 Billion dollars will be spent by both sides and unfortunately, most of it will be in the form of misleading ads or truth twisting like we’ve never seen before. Hold onto your hats, my fear is all they are going to do is further divide us as a Country. It’s clear most peoples minds are already made up and all that money is not really going to change anyone. They’d be better off just reducing the deficit with it, don’t ya think?
So there you have it.
Yesterday the oldest had his field trip which was lots of fun for him. We also found out he has a part in a play. He didn’t get the part he wanted (even though everyone thought he would and should) as the other boys Mom volunteers every day for the teacher. Now we’re not saying there was any favoritism but something was amiss. We told him to make the best of his part and that no matter who he played, to embrace the role and he’ll be the  best. Mom of course chimed in that Brad Pitt started in soap opera’s and that Russell Brand also didn’t get the parts he wanted when he started out. (who knew she’s been following Russell Brand’s career since the beginning!) He’s ok with it but is all about fairness and I guess it wasn’t really fair. I then had to remind him, life isn’t always fair. Sometimes bad things happen to good people and vice versa.
Meanwhile the youngest one was playing hard outside with his friends. It was a nice day and Mom procured a few more flowers and a couple of dwarf trees for her pots by the front door. I’m sure I’ll be digging some holes somewhere sometime soon. Today we’re supposed to get some showers and then the warm up comes peaking this weekend with temperatures in the 80’s.
Time to run as it’s almost 6:30 and time to get everyone up! Today the misses and I have lots to do around the house. Hope all’s well with you all, take care and God Bless.
