This is not a good thing.

I am an ice eater. Always have been. I guess it's a sign of anemia, but my iron's OK . ANYWAY.... I went to get a soda from the Publix deli today. The ice was AWESOME. Unless you enjoy ice you can't possibly understand my explanation why so I won;t bother. But it's damn good ice. I got the big gulp size. I am glad I didn't find this little treasure sooner and I will try my best to forget. But I did just dump the rest of it on the floor, so somebody is looking out for me :)


James has pink eye. It's a first for us. I got home from work last night and noticed his eye was crusty. I asked him if he had just woken up, no. I asked him if anyone at school had "pink" eyes, YES. A kid at his table stayed the whole day. NO ONE at school noticed this child's eye. Thanks bunches.

It's in the early super contagious stage so there is a lot of eye de-gooping, hand washing, and Germ-X. We were supposed to go the farm today but decided not to be butt holes and pass it around. We were supposed to go with a friend to a Fall Festival tomorrow but it seems to be spreading to his other eye now. Although it's no bother to him I just can't take him out. I was going to take him to Urgi-care today but with my new insurance it costs 2x a Dr visit. I figured it wouldn't make much difference between now and Monday so I am going to take him to the Dr then. I want to be sure it's safe to send him to school. All the info I read said he should be fine after 3-5days. Monday will be day 3 so I am being cautious. He's completely bummed about missing out on everything and really doesn't understand why he can't go anywhere.

I am pretty big and uncomfortable these days. Darn short torso..... But everything is going well. The Dr visits are wonderfully short. When we had James we would be in the office all day just waiting to be seen. They were always way off schedule. This time around I am in there for all of thirty minutes and on my way. Next appt is my 2nd glucose test. FUN. I am almost to the twice a month visits. How time flies. I can't believe it's been seven months!!!!

Still no name. It will be Joshua or Michael I think.

It's a FORD Edge by the way......

THIS POST CONTAINS INFO ON CLEANING. Not interested? Me either.....

BEFORE YOU SKIP IT THOUGH I NEED HELP. Whenever I clean the tile floor it looks worse then I started. It leaves this funny film and you can see footprints. Any ideas? A lot of things around here were not done well and I am so glad that I am not the homeowner, I'd be really angry.....

So I dropped J off at school, stopped by Target for cleaning supplies and here I am.

I had every intention of cleaning the house top to bottom today. But as we all know that never works out for me. I have had moments where I really could have laid down and taken a nap but I sucked it up and carried on. It's not that I am tired, just lazy. I cleaned, dusted, and vacuumed the living room. Now it's time to tackle the kitchen which looks like a twister blew threw it. I have one half ready to wipe down but dishes are overflowing the double sink. Strange since J did a load yesterday morning. RIDICULOUS! Dishes and clothes seem never ending.

In other cleaning news Scrubbing Bubbles revamped the toilet wipes. I spent a good ten minutes looking for them, being pissed off that they didn't have any, and then glad to find the "new easy to use canister." I am addicted to them. Especially with two boys in the house. Wipe - toss - flush. So nice!

MY NEW FAVORITES:
1. I bought a new can of Pledge and it had one of those dusters included. I love it.There was even a coupon for a free refill. Maybe I will dust more often now.
2. Fantastik Clean and Shine. I use it on EVERYTHING. Even the stainless. It's the best and has a nice smell. Not to mention it's under $2!


DONE WITH THE CLEANING STUFF----

I got the first gifts for the baby yesterday. Mom got me a car seat and the playpen I wanted. I registered for the Fisher Price Rain forest collection. It's so cute.


FAT CAT:


J'S TOOTH:

2x+1day=ranting

So you would think if you left half a chicken on the counter the cat would eat it right? NOPE! My lovely little bastard of a cat decided to tear into a bag of cat food. bag and food everywhere. THANKS.

: )

This is our new car.





It's lovely. We traded in the Cadillac and kept the KIA. Reasons?
1. The KIA will be paid off in a couple months
2. The KIA still has 40k miles/4years left on the warranty, the Cadillac had none.

I will not be driving it. Yeah even with the baby. Reasons for that?
1. The car is big and I just don't feel as comfortable driving it.
2. J REFUSES to drive my car.

As the salesman was trying to sell me on it I had to bite my tongue several times and smile. I have no idea why he felt I needed to approve but it was driving me crazy. I really didn't care what J came home with and I didn't want to go.

We pulled J's tooth on wed night. He looks super cute! He cried when he tasted the blood, but got over it pretty quickly. School is a little better, but I have to have a conference with his teacher. She gives us no info on what's going on when he has a bad day, so if J's side of the story is correct she is punishing him for no reason. I want to believe that's not true and that he really is misbehaving but if I can't get feedback from her what am I supposed to do? The last couple of issues have not been temper tantrums.


----
I officially look pregnant and we can feel the little guy moving. He still has no name. Everything is normal so far. I can't believe it's been six months!!

I am off on Monday. J has school. I don't know what I will do with my free time!
