Honest to God(probably not the best phrase to choose seeing as I just used the "F" word and am about to use it again) who cares how people dress. Don't like it? Don't fucking look. Freakin' government control freaks. 1 comments so far2005-02-09 Free TIme Ryun is off fulfilling is civic duty today(jury duty). Conveniently, he is at Wareham District Court which is literlly 2 minutes away. He had to be there at 8:30 this morning...so far no word from him on whether or not he will have to serve or be coming home.I have been called twice. The first time, I spent almost the entire day there, only to be sent home. The second time, I actually sat for a "pizza delivery guy slipped and fell on the way up to someone's door and was sueing for all kinds of insane amounts of money" case. We awarded him about 1/8 of what he was asking for. Anyway, YAY for Dell. I ordered my ink cartridge refills from them yesterday after 3 pm and they arrived this morning. Talk about good service. Katherine is at school, Julia is currently being entertained by a Baby Einstein Language Video, so I am going to take advantage of my "free" time and organize my desk. And no, I don't let my 6 month old daughter sit in front of the tv on a regular basis...just once in a while, and only when one of her Baby Einstein videos is in the VCR. Too much tv is bad...bad bad bad. And one more observation...the words "free time" and "Mom" can not co-exist. Free time to mothers is....ok, now I can get thhe laundry done, organize my desk, wash the floor, pack the kids lunches, etc. etc. etc. I don't even know what "free time" is.
2005-02-08 Katherine's Report Katherine got her pre-school porgress report yesterday. She did well, actually very well. Basically, they "grade" her on such things like:Plays well with others Stands up for rights Age appropriate fine and gross motor skills Listens and carries out simple directions
This doesn't concern me too much though..some people just prefer to be alone which I really dont't think is a big deal. If she never associated with others I may be concerned but she got "sometimes" so that was fine. I still can't believe that she will be in kindergarten next year...all day too. She really isn't "my baby" anymore is she? 0 comments so far2005-02-08 EP Update Emily's Page has been updated! 0 comments so far2005-02-07 Main Dish Ideas Ryun is off having his MRI tonight(to see if what Emily has is possibly genetic). They called today to find out if he had ever had metal in his eye and of course, he had. Even though it was removed, he still has to have an xray first just to make sure that it's gone. The results take 24-48 hours to come in...I can't tell you forward we are looking to that.I went shopping today while Katherine was at school and got the girls some things for Valentine's Day. I also got pink and red paper goods so that we can have a festive Valentine's dinner on Monday. I am looking for any suggestions as to what I can cook for dinner that night that would be considered "Valentiney." I plan on making heart shaped sugar cookies over the weekend that we can enjoy for desert but I have no thoughts on a main dish. So, please share! 0 comments so far2005-02-07 Julia's 6 month check up Julia had her 6 month check up today.She weighed in at 16 lbs, 5 1/2 oz and was 27 1/4 inches tall. Since her last check up on December 3, she has gained almost 2 pounds and she grew 2 1/4 inches. Julia is in the 50th percentile for her weight, and the 99th percentile for her height! As her ped put it, she has the perfect body! He called her tall and lean which is rather odd when you look at the double chin and the rolls on her legs...LOL. He was impressed with her strength and she demonstrated rather nicely for him(on cue it was kind of funny) how she could "talk". He asked, "Does she babble?" And she did. Too funny. She had four shots today...four because he offered the flu vaccine for her and I said yes. She did much better with the shots today than before...she settled immediately upon being placed in my arms. God I just love that...not that I like to hear her cry. Julia doesn't have to go back for three months...and the next appointment will not require any shots! YAY! 1 comments so far |
