Its MMG's b-day today! Now is as old as I am for 6 weeks. LOL

How is everyone? I was soooo tired yesterday. I had a super busy weekend and then little sleep Sunday night. I got home from shopping and ended up (trying to) take a nap. My puppy didn't think I needed to sleep.

I didn't get a chance to tell you how amazing the Lyme Panel forum went on Saturday. Scott rocked the house- again. That kid is incredible. I had people coming up to me in the ladies room telling me how he had everyone in tears, how strong he is. These are all people in the mental health profession so they aren't just saying it. B/c of Scott's input, the therapy group is interested in putting together a kids/teens support group for Lyme and chronic illness.

I also found out that if I were a horse, I would be able to get diagnosed and treated w/o any issue. A woman said that Chronic Lyme is recognized in the equine medical community. If a horse goes lame for no reason and/or has a personality change, the vet will assume Lyme, and treat with 2-3 months of abx, no questions, no problems. Yet as a human, I have to fight for all of that. Crazy world, eh??

I am off to clean today for my BFF- then we are "celebrating" Gary's b-day with Pizza for dinner. That is what he wanted! We are having family over on Sat. so this is just the 4 of us.

Gotta get myself off of the computer and ready to roll.......

Tip on Tuesday:
If you live in a Lyme endemic area (which us really much of the US) -- be a horse. :p
 
Chris- wish your husband a happy birthday for me- another day of rain- another day of work- one day closer to vacation!! I can't wait- so mentally ready for this. SIL less than 1 year to live, the wedding of her son will be moved up, hopefully we will be able to attend and see her living, not at funeral. She has a nasty type of pancreatic cancer with less than a year with treatment. Her future daughter in law has been great at sharing information.

Chris- the antibiotics that animals take are the same as humans- but cost much, much less- go figure- and they don't have insurance (unless they are special horses!)
 
Hi there ! happy tuesday everyone :wave:

chris - it's so good that you can be proud of Scott like this ... he sure seems to be a great kid ! happy bday to Gary :party:

laurie - ugh ... terrible news about your SIL ... must be pretty hard on the family ...


Out here nothing much. We all finally seem to have overcome the jetlag from our week in Punta Cana (6 hours) : Cédric did not get up in the middle of the night to pick a book and read :lol: . Tomorrow Hélène is leaving on a 3 days trip with her school to visit Arles, Nîmes and Avignon. I hope she brings me tons of cool photos to scrap ;) . Good thing I handled the majority of the laundry from our holiday on Sunday : I can pack her bag with clean clothes tonight :p

have a good day everyone
xoxo

I say maybe it is time to wear a horse costume and go see a vet!!
 
Today will be a little crazy. I have to take Addie to the doctor for her preschool program, then while i am there i need to get a pregnancy test so that I can get a mumps vaccine. I know I'm not pregnant but that isn't good enough for them. Ugh!! I also have to get shot 2 of my Hep B series. While I'm at the doctor I need to talk to them about Addie and her defiance issues. I know kids have bratty moments but I think she exceeds what is normal. I love that girl but honestly...she's mean, not just a little bratty. She's funny and witty and sweet as pie on occasion but it is not the norm and I am starting to actually be worried about it. She's like Thing 1 and Thing 2. Always does the opposite of what she's told. It is a bit frustrating. Then I have some other running around to do. Blah!!

Chris - Happy Birthday Gary!! That is so cool about Scott. I keep remembering him as the bratty teenager who couldn't be seen with his momma and now he keeps doing all these cool things. I'm proud of you for being a super duper mom. That would so cool for him to be a part of a teen group. Just awesome.

Laurie - Pancreatic cancer is so sad. People are always so sick by the time treatments start. I'll pray you have the opportunity to spend some time with her. Hugs!!

Dumpty - I want to go to Punta Cana. I'm waaaaaaay jealous. Good job on getting the laundry done.
 
Good morning ladies! It took me all day to get my computer back in order yesterday, now I have all my goods back on here and my PS installed. I'm so far behind with everything i feel like I'm losing my mind!

We got Kaylyn's 3 Month pictures done a few weeks ago, here is one of them =]

Then.....I stood in line for 30 minutes.....I was having hot flashes like mad....plus I still needed to stop and get dinner...............I finally got home at 7.....but...Mike was happy he got his little camera....for...uuuhhhmmmm...not sure what he wanted it for!!!

speaking of lyme disease i have found 3 ticks on my persons so far...one on my leg...never got attached...one was attached to my ear boo wasn't on me long though....and i found one crawling on my shoulder! grr damn ticks!
 
ticks freak me out that is all I am saying. I needed to switch back to work laptop and get more work done. I won't be traveling outside of the USA for a while- we applied for passports same day same place and my husband has had his for nearly 2 weeks and I have nothing- guess they are really checking up on me!
