I really hate this program for blogging. I can NEVER get my font the way I want it on the first, second, or fifth attempt. It really bothers me that it has to be so difficult.
Moving on ... the last kitty died after about a week of torment. Not by the hands of my children but my husband. She was following Jake out the door and was caught perfectly for the door to close on her mid-section. Her spine was broken and I just felt terrible as she drug her hind quarters searching for a safe haven. She didn't seem to be in too much pain as she did not cry. Jake put her down. I was pretty broken up about this little kitty dying. I assume because she was just a baby. I hate death. Wow. Let's move on from here.
So Isaac has cavities. I would love to say that I brush his teeth daily and floss weekly but that is a big fat lie! I may brush monthly and floss during his 6 month check up. I know. You mothers out there are probably pulling at your hair with anguish on your faces thinking how could you do that to your sweet little man. Well, the intention is there but not the follow through. I have a goal to brush / floss more regularly and I think everyone else should as well. So he had an appointment to get his teeth filled and such in Wichita this morning at 6 am. Yeah. That put me leaving my house at 5 am and having Susan wake up early to get Jacob off to school. I get there and they say sorry, you can't have that baby in here so we'll have to reschedule you. Wow. No sympathy for a travelling girl. Apparently I should have known better. I guess she was right. Why would I think it was okay to have a baby in a doctor's office. I gave you the very short version but I will let you know, I kept my cool. I did not boycott them. I said I'm sorry for the trouble and they rescheduled me for Monday morning at the same time. I drove to Wichita for nothing. I did see that diesel is $3.07 which made me happy.
So maybe this hasn't come up yet but we are moving. Yes, you read that right. We just bought a house in town and will be moving sometime soon. It's too much to live and build so we found a good opportunity and took it. I have great expectations of a home with crisp clean lines and no clutter. I'll keep you posted on how that's working for me. We still plan on moving back to The Hill but maybe in a year or two. I am certain it will not be as stressful as the one 3 months ago since everything is still packed. We are crazy. So unpredictable.
Uhm, I don't know where I am with this. I am so sleepy I don't even know if I'm putting my words together correctly. I am sick, tired, and a headache has been creepin' in. I'm going to sleep hard tonight. I'm done. I'm out.
Oh, and Happy Halloween. I nearly forgot the holiday since we have not had it yet. We will be celebrating our trick or treating tomorrow cause in Seymour, and many other surrounding towns, it has been moved to Saturday so that there will be a great showing at the Friday night football game. Only in Texas.

At least you're taking your kid to the dentist which is more than I can say that I've ever done. I do however take an undeserved measure of comfort in the fact that you've admitted your parental neglect on the subject of teeth. And now I can feel better about myself knowing I'm not the only mother who lets her child go to bed with dirty little teeth night after night (after night). We thoroughly enjoyed Jake's visit the other night. I am however, a little concerned about his fingernails.
