So I failed....

Ok, so this new years resolution has failed miserably!!! I was doing so good too... But with work, kids, and family stuff, it is just so hard to fit it into my schedule.... SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO... I make a new resolution.... To post a new post ONCE a week, instead of everyday!!!

PS. On the up side... I bought a new laptop yesterday. My other one wouldn't keep charged, so now I have this wonderful new one... YAY ME

Day 14- ER Visit

As I got home from a meeting for work (6:45ish), I walked in the door, ready to eat my wonderful boyfriends BBQ roast- when I was stopped to look at Cadyns shoulder. He fell at school this morning, yes this morning, and it was hurting him. He can barely lift his arm up. So, I grab my keys and pack up Cade and head back out the door.

We arrive at the hospital at 7pm, register and sit and wait for our name to be called. Luckily for us it wasn't all that long, which was nice. We get into the room (which is the one that we seem to always get, like they have Cades name written on the door or something,lol), and wait again. The doctor comes in and takes a look at his arm, orders an x-ray, and off he goes.

So, now we are sitting in the room waiting again... X-ray shows up, we go take 3 pictures of various positions of his shoulder (scapula to be precise), and head to to our lovely room.

A 1/2 hour of Worlds Most Outrageous Police Chases, and 1/2 hour of Cops, and 1 full episode of Hannah Montana later, the doctor finally comes in to tell us the news.........

No fracture found. Well, that he could see at least, so he is going to have the radiologist take a look at it tonight, and call us tomorrow if there really is something there.

2 hours at the hospital, and we are finally on our way home. I can smell the roast as I drive... I walk into my house, starving, and waiting for this delicious piece of meat, and what do I find?????????????????????

2 Pieces left, no potatoes... WTH??????

I guess Gareth had some unexpected company, and they decided that they wanted some. Oh well, at least I got to have 1 piece and Cade got one..... *Sigh*

Day 13- 80's Flashback

Last night my sister and I laid in her bed and listened to 80's music! We haven't had that much fun in a long time. We sang (Badly), laughed and had a great night!!

Day 12- Sister Love

First of all, I am starting to feel better (Thank Goodness)!!!!

So, I am in Salt Lake with my lovely sister Jamie. We are sitting on her bed, listening to music and just catching up on the last few months. This is so precious to me, since I don't get to see her enough. Although, I can't believe that I am missing Biggest Loser and American Idol, but I guess she is worth it, lol......

Cadyn has a OI Clinic at Shriners tomorrow, then we are back in STG tomorrow night.... Wish us luck :)

Day 8- Is Anyone there?

Gareth informed me that no one is really reading this, so why am I updating it daily? Well, I assured him that I do have readers, and that it was the one thing that I can actually accomplish as a New Years Resolution!!!

So, tonight after working a long day, with a 7:45am meeting tomorrow, here I am updating my "hopeless" little blog (if nothing more then to prove a point, lol).

Hope someone is listening (or reading that is)!!!!!

Day 6- Riddle Time

So, here is one of Cadyn's riddles that he likes... Can you guess the answer????

a man's driving down the road with his son and they get in a crash. Two ambulances come and take the man and his son to different hospitals. Son goes into the operating room, the doctor looks at him and says, 'I can't operate on this boy. He's my son.' How's that possible?

Day 4- OUCH

So, today I decided not to do a "Quote of the Day". I have instead decided that I would vent about my back... Yes, you heard me right. I want to complain about my back.

Ok, here is the story.....

As all of you know, I had to work on Christmas day (sucks, I know... but what do you do). While at work, doing I don't know what... I hurt my back. I guess this is some sort of Karma for working on a day where I should be with my family!!

Of course over the next couple of days of working, it has continually gotten worse.

Fast forward to last night... Gareth decided that he would try and help me, and was putting pressure on my back and giving me a massage (well, I don't think you call it a massage when someone is poking you and drilling all their weight on you), and I thought I was going to die....

The rest of the night, my right leg was numb, my back hurt and today- I woke up with not only a back that could hardly straighten, but a bruise on my butt from said earlier massage!!!!!!!

UGH.... Gotta keep smiling though, because their is always someone else worse off... (I hope :( )

Day 3- Quote of the Day

Some people develop a wish bone where their back bone should be.

Day 2- Quote of the Day

Realize that true happiness lies within you. Waste no time and effort searching for peace and contentment and you in the world outside. Remember that there is no happiness in having or in getting, but only in giving. Reach out. Share. Smile. Hug. Happiness is a perfume you cannot pour on others without getting a few drops on yourself. ~ Or Mandino

Day 1 - Quote of the Day

Change has a considerable psychological impact on the human mind. To the fearful it is threatening because it means that things may get worse. To the hopeful it is encouraging because things may get better. To the confident it is inspiring because the challenge exists to make things better. ~King Whitney Jr.

HAPPY NEW YEARS!!!!!!!!!!

So, for New Years I have decided that I will post something everyday! That's right.... 365 posts in 1 year :) Now, don't get me wrong... It will probably be something as simple as my famous Quotes of the Day, but still..... 365 posts people!!!!!

I hope that you all had a fantastic Christmas, and a Fabulous New Years. May 2010 be a year full with laughter, love and stress free moments!!!!
