Less Teeth More Earrings

Monday November 15, 2010 - Dylan finally lost another tooth, but this time another kid at school knocked it out. It was not ready to come out yet, but it already has the new tooth behind it and the one he pulled a while back still has no new tooth. Maybe by the time he is in high school he will have lost all of his teeth. ;)


Emily finally decided that yesterday was the day to get her ears pierced. She has been talking about it for months and said she wanted to do it yesterday. She was a little scared after she watched a girl before her get her ears pierced but Emily did great. She said "I look so pretty". She had to show the dog and cat her earrings also.


I hope everyone has a great week.

Thursday November 11, 2010 - Yeah, it is not an even numbered day!!!! Even numbered days are the days I try to remember to take my medication. It has gotten to the point where I HATE taking my injections. For some reason they have been getting more and more painful. Last nights was one of the worst.


I have to say that I do feel very thankful that my MS is stable. After going to the MS walk, the meeting we went to a couple of weeks ago and talking with one of the moms at Emily's school today, I am very fortunate. This mom has a sister about my age that was diagnosed when she was 16 and spends most of her time in a wheelchair. I see so many people with MS that have major disabilities it makes me feel so sad for them and at the same time scared for myself and what my future holds. You have to sit back and realize you have to live your life one day at a time and there are no guarantees for tomorrow.

On a happier note...... I got a job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am so excited to have this opportunity. I will be working at Emily's preschool a couple of days a week. I have worked up there the last three weeks and love it. It is so nice to be out of the house and be around other adults. Emily is enjoying me being at her school all day as well. She always asks me if she will see me in the hall. :)


Well I guess that is all my ramblings for now. I hope everyone enjoys their weekend. Only two weeks until Thanksgiving.

Happy November

Thursday November 4, 2010 - Can you believe Thanksgiving is only three weeks away? I wanted to post some pictures from Halloween. The kids had a good time but were tired on Monday morning. I don't like Halloween being on a school night.
