Pinch me! I am so happy it is Friday! The boy's....oh my baby boy's and the trouble they get into. WOW! Seems like I can't turn my back these days without something getting broken, someone getting into something, someone crying, etc. I heard it gets better as they get older. So I am patiently waiting for them to get out of this stage that they are both in.
We went to a pumpkin patch. It was ok. We didn't get a pumpkin but Josh did ride a few rides. He had so much fun. I am still feeling under the weather. I have been taking Tylenol every 4 hours to try to perk myself up a bit. The throat is slightly sore still, I have this weird dry cough, it's nothing severe, just enough to feel blah. BUT, Saturday (oh my gosh, that's tomorrow) we are meeting a bunch of other families to go to Tomachaloff Farms for pumpkin picking. This time we will get a pumpkin though! It should be a lot of fun. I think I may have finally gotten my hormone treatment under control. I have taken a 1/2 pill for the last 3 days and I seem to be ok. I am able to sleep at night and my heart isn't palpitating all night. So I think these are day time pills only. I did schedule my next surgery for Nov. 26th but I will be changing that. I talked to Lindsey yesterday and she has to coordinate with Dr. Koh to be able to get a date going.
Sunday we are going to be Halloween decorating. I can't believe how late we are starting. Usually it is done by the first of the month. We have been so busy though, we haven't had the chance to get out there and do something. I did look at Knotts Scary Farms' website. I got all in the Halloween mood. So now I am excited. We will be buying our candy this weekend too and I am trying to figure out what’s the best candy to get.
We got our website up http://www.thewallaby.com/ It looks so cute and I am so excited. We are not functional yet but we will be shortly. Frantz sent the pocket and it was not what we were looking for. So Mom made a new pocket and sent it to him. As soon as the pocket is correct we will get a full gown and then go to production! Yea! Today I am working on the merchant account and payment gateway. Fun is!
OK so this has been hanging over me (and why I can't watch things like this). I was watching an episode of Cops. It was an older episode. Anyway, this mother left her 4 children in a hotel room. There were 5 children in total; the other child was a friend of someone else who was living in the hotel by another woman. OK so 5 kids total in this hotel room. The oldest was 8 and the youngest was 1. The 1 year old had apparently been walking around the hotel for 2 days with no diaper. These kids were filthy as you can imagine. No shoes and some old pizza was lying around. OK so the mothers show up and the police are there. They ask where they have been. The Mom with the 2 kids went to bail her boyfriend out of jail and the mother of the one other child went with her. They thought the children would be ok by themselves.So, sigh, where do I begin? First, she enough money to get her boyfriend of jail but not enough for diapers? Where does a Mother's loyalty lie? ALWAYS without question it should be with the children. Yet, does it not seem that so many Mom's put men first in their lives? Why? Children rely on us 100% of the time for 100% care and guidance. Why and how anyone could let a child try to fend for themselves is beyond me. I would rather be a lonely old shriveled shrew but have happy healthy well-adjusted children. No person would ever come before my children.
Second, why would they not have taken the children with them? I mean, pile them all in the car and have your friend watch them in the car while you go get your loser boyfriend out of jail.
Third, why didn't one of them stay behind to watch the kids in the room? Let's say that they all didn't fit in the car, ok, well did it take 2 people to give money and sign papers? No, doubt it.
Forth, is it really that slim out there that someone in jail is your only choice? Wouldn’t you rather be single than spend money on a boyfriend in jail. A husband is a different story.I could go on and on about this. It ticked me off.
What also always gets me....people who say they are so broke but suddenly have a new tattoo, piercing, cigarettes or a pitbull. No you are no broke, you just do not want to spend money in the right places.
And while on the subject of Pitbulls. I wish they would be outlawed. Basically at this point they are just a legal means of walking with a loaded gun in your hand. I know, it's the owners not the dogs. Well as much as it is tempting, we can not get rid of the type of people who own Pitbulls so the dogs are the only expendable things in the equation. No not all pitbulls are bad and no not all owners are bad. But I would say the majority of each are bad and that creates a problem. Take for instance the boys in our neighborhood. There are now about 6 or 7 young Hispanic males that hang out together. They all have Pitbulls (great parents huh?). They keep them on leashes but barely. They dogs are pulling to get away and these scrawny kids can barely hang on to them. But they think it is sport to say :”attack attack” and have the Pitbulls get aggressive. It is not funny, though they think it is. I’ve called and ask the police department what I can do. They were super nice about it and agreed it is aggressive behavior but nothing can be done. I sort of knew that but I just wanted to make sure. So we are buying a bat and bear spray to put in our garage. Charlie sometimes has to go out with Babar and we have to keep the kids inside because of these kids and their Pitbulls.
OK Jake is in my China again. I will try to come back later.
