I’m very tired this morning as I was up until 11:30 last night and woke up at 5ish. It’s cool outside this morning and might even snow tonight. I guess we shouldn’t complain as whenever you turn on the news it shows some more tornado’s or floods or something far worse in another part of the country. The boys are now begging to use the computers all the time. Aunt B (and Uncle T) gave them each a Puffle for Easter. These are little stuffed animals or toys that are nothing themselves but you log on to Club Penguin and sign in and then you’re in a virtual community with kids from everywhere. There are over a 100 different forums or themes the kids can enter (all related to penguins) and they then play games, find things, buy things, and more. It’s all the rage today, wonder what tomorrow will bring.
Mom came home a couple of hours early yesterday as she’d been itchy all day and her face was swelling up. She also was short of breath. She needed some Benedryl which helped a bit but she must have got into something. She threw together a quick dinner of Easter leftovers and then went straight to bed. She works from 8:15 until 4:30 today and then has 3 days off. I know she is looking forward to that as are the boys and I.
Lots going on politically and economically, too much for today (don’t you feel lucky) but all I ask is that you think for yourself. Too many people in our country turn on the boob tube and believe whatever some newscaster is telling them. Just cause it’s on TV doesn’t mean it’s true!
Oh well, most of the World will be in fairy tale land this week with the royal wedding. I mean come on people, they’re just people, the same as you and me. I’m personally more interested in the NFL draft which begins Thursday night. (those guys are royalty!) Here comes the misses and I need to warm up my coffee so I’m passing off the blog to her now, enjoy your day!
So….I’m ready for work with a lot of extra make-up on. The bite or whatever it is has gotten bigger and now has a friend.  The left side of my face is swollen….left eye is now smaller than the right…maybe it’s a lesson in vanity since I have to go work with the masses this morning. I am still itchy on my face, legs and arms….so far no more red bumps anywhere but my face. Hurray!! I will probably head to the doc at some time today or the dermatologist….maybe an allergist…any suggestions would be appreciated.
I had my quick run and I threw the ball for the dogs yesterday…we didn’t make it to Grandma’s, but maybe after work today.
The oldest has soccer practice tonight unless the field is too wet. Â Both boys can use the exercise to get their incredible amount of energy out.
This is “Team Member ” appreciation week at work. Â Yesterday was a basketball Free Throw contest….how many shots you make in 2 min….I am having a “do over” since I was the first to go and the line was a foot back too far….I only made 6. Today is a Foosball contest and the winner gets to keep the table. Tomorrow is a gift card grab…and a tricycle race around the store. Friday is a “Guess who” on baby pictures. It is a really fun place to work!!
The boys are up, so I am off to make breakfast…
God Bless
