My Kingdom For A Good Night’s Sleep….
TALES FROM THE BRAT FARM
Bad night last night. Had pain in my left leg in the area between my knee and my hip. Had to call the doctors office about that today because this has been going on for about two weeks now. There has to be a reason for it. Since I am having a sonogram of my right lower leg next week, I wanted to have the doctor order one for that leg area….just in case. I keep thinking *What if it’s NOT something simple but maybe another area that needs looking at that might need a roto-rooting?* That way, if I do need something like that, I can get it taken care of before I fly up to Chicago.
The Beast is still having a problem with that arm of his although it seems to be more the joint might be pinching a nerve. I told him he should go see our regular doctor if this keeps up more than another day or so. If it were me, I would have gone already but he can be such a pain in the ass over stuff like this. It’s a man thing, I know. Macho man crap.
Chewlee arrived here today with a couple baskets full of her stuffed animals of all sizes. It’s going to be fun for her and the Princess to get it all back home tonight IF the Beast doesn’t drop her off after church. He shouldn’t be able to since I doubt the Princess will be home from work then. It takes her about an hour or so to drive home after she closes up the store. Church will be over before that happens so Chewlee has to come back here thankfully. My computer room looks like a toy store disaster area at the moment. Especially when you take into consideration that her purse with makeup is here along with her big plastic bag full of crayons and markers.
She drew a picture of herself with a house in the background, a big tree, some butterflies and flowers and grass and hung it on my fridge. It was the first thing I noticed this morning as I went to pour myself some milk. It took me by surprise because she usually hangs her pictures up here in my room.
She must really love her new haircut because her mommy can straighten it for her in just a few minutes. It took much longer when her hair was down to her waist (after straightening). Now it’s zip,zip,zip! She spent the morning brushing it and checking it in the mirror to make sure it was still straight. She will see Birdie tonight and wanted her to see it straight and shorter. She makes me laugh at how she loves that woman. That’s the *child whisperer*. All the parents are amazed at how quiet and obedient their kids are around her. I can do that to babies but anything over a toddler and they are normal kids around me.
But I love that because you can see their personalities developing, good AND bad. It was really warm today but my fingers (the arthritic ones) are feeling better. I think it was 85 around 2pm. It’s 75 right now at almost 10pm. It’s supposed to be nice and clear and about the same temp tomorrow here. According to the weather channel, the country should be mostly free of any more rains, tornadoes, any kind of bad weather so enjoy it folks!
Love you all. Think *great weekend*!
