So you know when your mother told you if you have nothing good to say then say nothing at all?

Yea, I never did a good job of listening to my mother.

As of the last time I wrote, I am currently *kindof* happily unemployed.  I no longer work at Vera House, and I currently work with Jen Jen at her property management company.  I only work like…12 hours a week though, so I don’t assume that can really be considered employment.  So, I’m a mostly stay at home mom, kind of employed, and part time grad student.  Go me.  Go go go me.

I’m particularly grumpy if no one has noticed this.  But, I’ll share some pictures.

Okay, maybe just one.  Because it so accurately represents how I feel at the moment.  My kid rules.

Now, does everyone want to know how wickedly awesome I am?  I mean, like so amazing that people gasp and stare at the amazingness that is me.

So so awesome, that I had to get 2 root canals today.  Not one my friends, oh no, I go big or go home, and I got 2.  They were running a deal, 2 for the price of one, so I figured why not, lets do another one while we’re in there.

Obviously that’s not the case.  Me, the cute little girl that has never had a cavity in her life who everyone hated, went to the dentist recently because of tooth pain.  I didn’t know what said tooth pain meant as I have never had tooth pain, because again, never had a cavity.  The dentist comes in with that solemn look on her face and said you have some cavities.  I said I do?  And wait…some?  meaning…more than one?!  She said oh yes, you have 3.  One bad enough that you need a root canal, and two that can be filled, well one is really borderline.  I laughed, scoffed even, and told her she must be looking at x-rays that belonged to someone else.

Well, as luck would have it, in a years time, I got 3 cavities.  Really.  They filled the 2 the other day, and alas, the one borderline one started to hurt.  So when I went in today to get my one really bad one, he decided that he really should do both.  So he drilled and scraped and made my face hurt like no ones business today.  And of course it wasn’t 2 for the price of one. It was, well, we all know how much a root canal costs.  Even before the crowns.

As I sit here in this ever increasing pain, my body is trying to fall asleep.  I don’t know if it’s from the stress, or the extreme amount of Novocaine, or my body just wants to sleep to heal itself.  All I know is that I’m having flash backs to Drug Studies from my freshman year at Ithaca and can’t keep my eyes open.

But – I’m off to take my lovely little to his very own dentist appointment.  Maybe they’ll let me sleep through it. Eh.

Why does it seriously drive me batty when the DVD’s are out of order in a TV on DVD compilation?

Especially when it’s me that puts them back that way.

Harharhar.

Life has been uncharacteristically busy.  Not that I’m complaining, but, I’m tired.

I remember when I was a kid, and I used to get sheets of stickers.  I was always so excited, and I would carefully place them in my sticker book.  I would very rarely let someone have one, or waste them by sticking them on your hand or something.  Erik, on the other hand, likes to rip them up and stick them everywhere.  Including the dog.

Kind of fitting, right?

Drake likes to lay like this to sleep at night.  In fact, he barely moves.  One would think he was dead.

He even lets me put George on him.  Oh, Drake.  You are too funny.

He also likes to roll in dead fish.  Yes, dead fish.  One of the most disgusting things ever, and I’m sure you can imagine the smell.  So he gets washed, in the lake.  So much easier than the bath tub, right?  And my lovely, oh so smart Drake, will stick his head under water if you throw a rock.  So, alas, really easy to wash him.

I also got to shoot some pictures of Brandon.  He decided to be an ass at the end.

After Drake gets in the lake, and I’m sure it’s from putting his head underwater, he gets lots of water in his ears.  He runs his head along the floor to get the water out.  It’s totally spastic, but quite funny.

Last Friday was really a beautiful day out, so I ran around and took some pictures around the lake.

I think I’ve mentioned before that Logan sleeps with Erik at night.  Apparently Erik’s bed has turned just as much into Logan’s bed.

Yes, I realize there are more pictures of the dogs than the kid this post.  That’s okay.  They’re cute too.

So Saturday was my cousin Suzie’s daughter’s birthday party.  We ran around a lot, watched the kids play, socialized, and ate.  Of course, we ate.  Lots and lots of eating.  Wonderful.  : )

Here are a few shots from the party.  I will not bore you with lots of captions, okay well not too much.

Yes, I was in a dress.  I know, amazing.  It was hot!

The kids were playing a game, and apparently the boys were too cool to jump.

They then had a lovely water balloon fight.

While the kids were watering each other, Erik and Brandon jumped onto the trampoline.

Then all the kids wentswimming, and after much persuasion Erik finally went in.

He was trying to make a running jump into the pool.

And when he got there, he stopped.  Haha.  Funny.

After much swimming, they finally decided to do the cake.  And the amazing yummy cake was a homemade ice cream cake made by Suzie.  Awesome job, dear.

We finished the whole cake.  Seriously.  It was that good.

Well that was pretty much it for the party.  I will alas leave you with one of my favorite shots with the day as I normally do.

Oh Steve, you rule.

I have more pictures from Father’s Day.  I will put them in the next post.  Maybe it won’t be as long.
