I JUST DON’T KNOW
Category: daily life
What I learned this weekend…
1. Non-rechargeable batters don’t belong in a battery charger! (oops!)
2. toddlers and grocery carts don’t mix! Here’s the proof.
Yes that is a bloody Jacket hood. it was saturated
Yes that is 3 staples in my little Girls head
3. Some churches just can’t accept the word “NO”
All of these things have fairly interesting stories behind them…The most interesting of which is how Lady bug (yes it was my little girl) got three staples on the side of her head!
Well we were grocery shopping on Friday night. She was riding in the back of a cart…she usually sits very well however she must have seen something she wanted and stood up…As she did so we think her jacket got caught on a shelf and she fell out of the cart hitting her head on the corner of a sharp shelf…She landed on her feet.
She cried and cried and Hubby scooped her up. He was trying to console her when people from the store started Sir sir she’s bleeding. There was blood on the floor and blood all down hubby’s back! He took off to the bathroom! I was left standing dumbstruck with two carts and two kids!…I waited and waited and waited. He never came back for me so pulling one cart and pushing another I made my way to the front of the store where I saw hubby and Lady Bug perched on a counter and hubby was on the phone. Instinctively I knew who he was talking to but I had to know for sure…Yep it was a 9-1-1 dispatcher. Shakily I showed s a cashier where it happened and checked out.
The paramedics showed up and wrapped up her head as though she had just had Major brain surgery! She hated it but it was kinda cute (NoW!). We then decided we would take her to the ER ourselves…since she landed on her feet We got to the hospital and went through a fast track.. She got three staples and she didn’t cry until the last one. I think i would have been crying from the very beginning but the little bug had been bouncing off the walls since i got her there. She was climbing everywhere!
At the end of it all she got a very cute teddy bear and a whole stack of Stickies as she calls them (stickers)…She was a Pied piper as we left the hospital. And I can safely say I NEVER want to go through that AGAIN!
Needless to say whenever we go to the grocery store we will be taking the double stroller with us!
Finding Time
Life has been full force around here lately..I guess I should say for ss long as I can remember ! however I have found it increasingly more difficult to have time for devotions and Bible Study (YES THERE IS A HUGE DIFFERENCE!)
It has been frustrating but I think i have it figured out. At night as soon as the kids go to bed I will do them! Hopefully that will be the right time.
It seems as though when I try to do them in the morning or when the kiddos go down for a nap they just seem to have radar and are up ready to go!!!
Anyway i will keep you posted…PUN INTENDED as I embark on finding what works for me!
Still no Sign of Them.
And Yes I am referring to my beloved keys…I guess they are not so beloved but I really do miss them. And so will the kids come tomorrow morning when Daddy goes to work and takes his Toy Cabinet key with him!!!!
CaffeinePills The Size of Texas
Yep, That is exactly what I need!!!
I have been up since 4 am..My eyes popped open and i laid there for a while trying my hardest to get back to sleep. So i got up posted on this blog about yesterday and then started in on cleaning our bedroom. However I was oh so sluggish. I really did and still do feel like a slug. Not just physically but mentally as well. It has taken me twice as long to do many things. I am thinking this is going to be one long Saturday.
Come to think of it maybe it’s not caffeine I need Maybe it’s my vitamins since I don’t remember the last time I took them…oops!
