I've decided to make the switch - I'm going vegetarian! Cutting out meat now, and phasing out dairy...I want to take on a mostly raw foods diet. Nuts, fruits and veggies and water. Now what am I supposed to tell friends and family who 1. want to take me out for meals and 2. think I am insane? And for ted's sake, what about BACON?

Haircuts for my asperger kid are getting easier... tonight he only ducked and wiggled and cried and yelled, "TORTURE! TORTUUUUUUUURE!" while I buzzed his head...

DD6 has a new use for her slinky. She drops it down over Rapunzel, lifts both up and squeals, "aaaah! I'm being abducted by aliens! Save me Flynn!" Definitely my child.

I feel helpless. DH is writhing in pain 90% of the time. None of the meds are touching it -- not the percocet, not the morphine, not the neurontin, not the valium, not the dilaudid. I massage, I rub, we use a heating pad. Thos help WHILE they are being applied, but otherwise, he's back to writhing. My kids are stressed out by it, which furhter stresses me. Things are so chaotic here right now, I feel out of control and helpless. I just want a margarita and a long bath, followed by a quick return to normalcy.

Oh and I have a massive crush on thie girl on my facebook page. /drool

I am full of raging hatred for my printer tonight. Toni SMASH!

I let my eight year old ride his bike a mile and a half to my parents' house. I was terrified the whole time, but he was pretty danged pleased with himself! Gotta give 'em a little freedom, even when it's scary...
