Here We Go Again....

August 24, 2011

It's just the third day of school, and Cymbre has spent the most of the school day without vision in her right eye.  She was just sitting in class and it faded....GREAT!!  U'sually, it come back within a few minutes, but today her eye is hurting and it didn't come back for several hours.  This is a concern.  We almost called the retina doctor to see her.  However, shortly after I picked her up she was tapping her head and it came back....now we just have the very sore eye.  At this point, no migraine though, so that's a blessing.

SO,

Because of this I took her medicine to school today....tylenol, Aleve.....she uses those for both her knee pain, and her headaches.  She has a perscription headache medicine, but it makes her too sleepy to stay at school....so it stays home.

Dad says he is sending Grandma to visit the grandbabies the end of September into October for a week.....HURRAH!!!! YIPPY!!!  YEAH!!!!   Haven't gotten to snuggle that Baby Lucy yet, and Grandpa thinks I need to go do that....so I am going.  And Russell....I think you should catch up the ironing before I get there.....I'm just saying....

Cooper is loving her new laptop, and it's making the homework situation a bit easier because they don't have to fight over who gets the computer....they both have one now.

Dad is getting ready to do some traveling....Halifax, San Antonio, China....who know's where else.

There was a break in in the neighborhood night before last.....the sheriff thinks it was someone who knew the family was out of town....guess they really made a mess in the house, but didn't take anything.....interesting.  Why go to the trouble to just make a mess if you're going to break into someone's home?  And why would you break into the home of someone who lives across the street from a police investigator....are you dumb?

Fall dance classes have started, and so has the student teaching.  Thank goodness for that teenage driver....no living at the dance studio for Dad and I this year.....can you imagine, after 13 years we don't have to go there everyday for hours?  What will we ever do with ourselves?

They came and put new venting all in the attic....guess we'll see if the kitchen stays cooler now.   We can hope!

Cooper's little beep beep car has started living in the driveway at night because the sprinklers are causing hard water stains on the passenger windows.  OK.....whatever!

I'm collecting dance costumes parts, so I guess the costume season has started once again.  I have to make a halter style tuxedo shirt....OK....shorten a prom dress for Cymbre, and do a jazz costume for Cooper and another tap costume..some sort of dress for Cooper.  She has two tap solos this year....Mark Goodman is going to come and do one for her to use for her college auditions.  She will need that especially next summer....expensive though.

Cymbre is busy with beehives...they are making a scripture journal this week.  They are covering a composition book with bee material, and then writing some scriptures in it.  Cooper isn't planning any acitivites currently, but the YW president as her for an idea for standards night.

Guess that's about all.....

Have a good day.
