Such Is Life
Today I have a list
I think I may start to live by my list.
I have such a busy life that I can’t keep my daily events straight.
Today for instance, at the top of my list is:
Drive to Starbucks
I actually have a need and not just a want for Starbucks today.
You see, my internet service sucks.
I mean it really sucks. I’ve not had internet in two days.
I have an internet based business so this is really begininning to get on my nerves.
I have to drive into town to use the service at Starbucks.
This also means I must purchase something while I’m there.
I am seriously contemplating sending my Starbucks bill to IBEC to make them pay for it.
I mean I am paying full price for a service in which they are unable to render at this time.
I’m actually typing this post out at home as a wordpad document which I will copy and paste into my blog service.
I figured if I have a 2 hour limit while I’m there I’d better get some of this done.
We’re finally over the pig flu at my house, it only made it’s way through 2 of us luckily.
Hubby never got it and neither did my oldest offspring.
My youngest though had it bad. Really bad.
His fever lasted for 6 days.
All we have left now is that very annoying cough that seems to last forever and ever.
Cade’s cough is almost over thank goodness. Though the cough medicine with codeine he was on was nice at helping him rest, it was such a chore to get it down him. He didn’t like the syringe they gave us to measure with because it didn’t allow it to go in fast enough. He likes to take it quickly then have a little drink of water to get the taste out of his mouth.
So this Mama gave it to him in a shot glass.
There’s nothing like teaching your 8 year old how to take a shot.
Does that make me a horrible mother?
I think not, I do whatever I need to in order to get the meds in.
And besides, he doesn’t even know what a shot glass is for.
Boo ~ soccer season is over and honestly it was merely a nuisance this year. I mean we made it to maybe half the games due to either sickness or bad weather.
I did however get some photos to share:
Don’t ask me why the boys tongue hangs out all the time. It helps him to concentrate. That’s what he says.
I say it helps him to catch bugs.
Notice if you will his lack of fashion sense. His brother would be very disappointed in this. I do notice that he is wearing a green t-shirt over a burgundy sweatshirt, navy shorts (he has black ones but won’t wear them), black socks and lo and behold his shoes match his socks, well kind of, his socks are black and white and the cleats are black with a red swoosh. We were close on that one. Seriously this is the ensemble he chose to wear. The boy is stubborn.
PS, I think he chose the burgundy sweatshirt because it says Harvard on the front and he thought it would make him smarter during the game.

Hi Kimber… Yes..you should def send a bill to them. Pro-rate your service per day and tell them they need to adjust your bill.
Soccer..hmm.. I kind of felt the same way this year. Two practices and a game this week (with a baby) made me grumpy!!!

Sorry about your internet…that stinks. Loved the soccer pictures. Sometimes you just have to let them dress themselves. I give my little guy three choices and that seems to work. Cade is cute no matter what he wears.
