a bloody begining to October

it's 1:15 am

the Mr & I had been dreaming of

well....we were in dreamland

when

a knock

at the door to our room

another knock

awakened and heightened the senses

then a LOUD BANGING

MOM---OPEN THE DOOR

i open the door to find

the second son

covered

and dripping BlOOD

from the

NOSE

down

Why wasn't I horrified

because I realized it is about

that time---yep it's been awhile since our last

bloody nose fiasco

the MR. and I got to work

the Patient was the least of the worries

bloody nose night comes once a month

(at least)

the child

with the nose disorder

seems to think he should travel

throughout our home

before

getting the blood stopped

which means.......

i digress

so.. we clean the the patients

nose--the blood stops

he says

"MOM, i'm tired , I'm goin' to bed"

"okay sweet heart, I love you"

which means

the Mr. and I will now spend an hour

(at least)

cleaning blood drops

the red nosed babe left for us

he peeks out from his room

"hey mom, I turned around a few times by your door"

"yeah right there"

"K goodnight"

after cleaning the result from his late night

blood nosed frolic

I go in to kiss him

( mainly to make sure the blood hasn't returned--because worse than nose bleed night is double nose bleed night)

I lay down next to my little guy

give him a kiss

and a hug

then I just stay there

too tired to move

"hey mom"

"get off my bed please"

"i'm really tired-i'm trying to sleep here"

a bit saucy for a child who just caused 2am carpet cleaning don't you think

HAPPY OCTOBER

HAPPY HAUNTING

Seattle.'s fine, the sun shines some of the time

And the feeling is 'lay back' all trees grow,

and rents are wo

But you know I keep thinkin' about Making my way back
Well I'm Provo City born and raised But nowadays, I'm lost between two lands

Seattle's fine, but it ain't home

Utah's home, but it ain't mine no more
"I am," I said

To no one there and no one heard at all

Not even the chair

"I am," I cried"I am," said I

And I am lost, and I can't even say why

Leavin' me lonely still
Did you ever read about a frog who dreamed of bein' a Queen

And then became one

Well except for the names and a few other changes

If you talk about me, the story's the same one
But I got an emptiness deep inside

And I've tried, but it won't let me go

And I'm not a girl who likes to swear

But I never cared for the sound of being alone
"I am," I said

To no one there

And no one heard at all

Not even the chair"I am," I cried"I am," said I

And I am lost, and I can't even say why

Leavin' me lonely still

I just thought I would post my anthem with a few minor changes

yesterday a friend called and mentioned that

I shoulda been in Utah this weekend

she was needing someone to cause trouble with

that someone has always been me.......

well, I am (missing you) I said

yet someone heard

yep more than the chair

and while I am lonely for my BEST FRIEND and our

Lucy & Ethell ways

I am luck to not be too

LONELY still

I am blessed to have found some friends who are fun, interesting, smart and up for some of my spur of the moment ideas

so Luce or are you Ethell i alway forget who is who...

remember the time...........wink wink........you know what I'm talking about.......nudge nudge

soon you will be here and we can stir up all kinds of trouble....Ricky ....oh I mean Angelo is so excited for your visit...p.s. bringing Fred(jd) and we will go get some fish

A funny thing happened the other day................

we were driving, Jaxson eating fruit snacks in the back

suddenly

"mom, i lost a tooth"

"oh, no where is it"

"mom, what if it's in here" ( gesturing to his mid section)

"could we write the tooth fairy a note"

Luckily we found the tooth and the Fairy delivered the $$

YOUR TURN

YOUR TURN

YOUR TURN

did I every tell you about the day grandma & grandpa met

Well

Grandma had been thinking about going to a singles dance ( over 30's)

and she really didn't want to

Grandpa had been going to every singles dance available for......let's just say MANY years

Grandma was finally convinced one Saturday.....because I was away and she was bored I think

Grandma put on her most colorful silk outfit & headed to the dance

Grandpa says when he saw her everyone faded to black & white

and she was in

TECHNICOLOR

the rest is history

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY

to

the couple who I am inspired to emulate
