97 to 100 degrees all week long

So it turns out this week is a pretty good week to go to Aspen as the temps down here are going to be hot! It all starts today and continues as far as they can forecast.

Here’s a couple of comments from my rant yesterday,

   I whole heartdley agree with you , with some of what you say. As for this out pouring of massive spying on us Americans , our telephone, cell phone, e-mail and ect., where is our freedom? I understand the reason behind it when it comes down to it, but not what they are doing? I love America and the freedom we fought for. God bless all Americans .

   Big government is never a good thing and when our elected officials represent themselves instead of us, you’d better look out. It’s not just one side, it’s both.

   I agree with both of you. I’m sure there intentions were well meaning, (maybe) but they’ve gone too  far and Annette is right, it’s been both sides for some time now.

   So it’s 6:21 and mom is trying to get the oldest guy ready for swim team and I have therapy at 7:30 downtown. Next up will be the youngest at 7:30 and I have a conference call at 9 and then need to pick up some wine at the warehouse. If it’s too hot, I’ll wait until tomorrow am. My knee is doing pretty well as I’ve been trying to ice and elevate this weekend to get it healed once and for all.

   As I said, it’ll be hot today, thank God the wife talked me into air conditioning a few years ago! She’s smarter than she looks and that’s a compliment as she looks pretty smart and smokin’ hot! Speaking of smokin’ hot, here’s my little firecracker now, I’m off to take the big guy to swimming.

   We are still trying to roust the oldest.  I was tickling him and rubbing his back…he was giggling and opening his eyes…slightly.  He is finally down stairs now.  He says he hates swim team and he is not doing it next year.  That will be a real bummer since he is naturally fast and he won his race in backstroke with absolutely no practice.  Maybe I can come up with an incentive program, as a swimming scholarship for college would certainly be nice.

   The youngest has a cracked baby molar on the back right side of his mouth.  He has been in quite a bit of pain. I had to give him kids Tylonol twice this weekend.  We tried to get into a dentist on Friday, but here in Colorado… Dentists do not have Friday hours….maybe oral surgeon should be on the kids short list of career options.

   Yesterday is a blur.  The youngest played with his friend across the street for a bit.  The three boys had a water gun fight.  we made a quick trip to Costco for organic chicken, as the last two times we purchased from Whole Foods the chicken was spoiled.  It smelled more like fish than chicken, ewwwww!

   I told the boys that I would take them to the pool when they ate all of their salad(4pieces of lettuce).  The oldest ate his with no fuss, but the youngest dragged his feet…reminded me that he hates salad and fish(we were not having fish) and told me that I could ground him for life if he just didn’t have to eat the salad.  After about 40 minutes he ate his salad and we went to the pool.  They swam for about an hour and a half and then we returned home for quick showers and Sunday night T.V.

   Uncle T called from Grandma’s to ask if I could help get her earrings in.  The oldest and I walked up to her house and I left the Mr.’s car keys up there. (Oops..we’ve been looking for the keys for at least 30 minutes)I first tried to push the posts through. Boy is she tough. After about 20minutes I finally had to use a needle to re pierce her ears.  She had them done while she was in Scottsdale a few months ago and has only had the posts out for a few days.  Her skin has super human regeneration powers to have completely, and I mean completely healed and closed up over and through the piercings.  Any of us that have ever gazed upon Lois’s lovely face can attest to her genetically superior skin…there is not a wrinkle on her.

   The oldest stayed up until almost 11p.m. It’s no wonder he did not want to wake up this morning.  Time for me to get the youngest up, as it is his turn to swim.

   Have a lovely day…God Bless
