Also, the other thing that was far too obvious, was the super un-frequent-ness of them. It made me sad. I wish I was better at documenting my life, the way some people are. Instead, I feel like my blog is more thought-vomit, thrown out there; sporadic, and inconsistent (I have been dealing with a sick toddler this week.... spare me). IRONIC! The other thing I notice is that J is always sick.
Quick side track: Chrissy!! Do you ever read this?? What on earth do you do for McKay's asthma?? This is absurd. Do you do any preventative care, or just post care? Am I using the right words?? I guess I'm wondering if all we have for these astham-kids is allbuterol nebulizer treatments?? I totally know how to deal with him once he's sick (around the clock...urgh), but there has got to be something out there to boost his immune system, so he doesn't get sick... No?? Anyone with a toddler that has asthma? A shout out? Anyone??
Ok, back to my post.
Ok, back to my post.
So, this is me attempting to write daily. At least when I am home. Which, I'm not so sure is a good idea. I don't want to be a slave to my blog. I want my blog to be a slave to ME! Mwah ha ha ha.... I like to blog when I have an idea, concern, thought, memory, etc. I think if I start to be a daily blogger, it will all get watered down. Any ideas??
See, just like this post. Watered down. I don't even know what I'm talking about.
Well, the boys are down, and I have finished the 1.3 loads of laundry that has been majorly neglected. Each time we would touch base at home, the pile seemed to grow and grow, just in time for us to take off again. I also vacuumed, mopped, and de-nastified our bathroom. That should all be good for the next month...
Kidding.
I should be packing, but I just don't feel like I can move. I'm so tired. We have a visitor (those are fun), and we stuffed ourselves full of Chipotle and Red Mango. Seriously. Good stuff. I really love that frozen yogurt is so hip-and-cool these days.
Anyway, we are leaving to San Diego tonight. Or in the morning. Not sure which. We will be there a few days. Then we are going to Yosemite. Then Lake Tahoe. Then Utah.
A bishopric member asked us to speak in church this Sunday. I enthusiastically said yes (I really want people to know we are new---trying not to fall in the cracks), and then Chris ruined everything and said, "Wait. We aren't going to be here," and then the nice man said, "Ok, how about the following week?" Again, I said, "YES!" And then... "We aren't going to be here...again..." and then we just felt stupid.
He kind of just looked at us. Stopped. Then just walked away.
How on earth is it already August??
hate to break it to you but August is 1/2 way over by the time you guys come back to Fullerton it will be September. Wonderful but I can't wait til 9/15 and I can have my life back. blah blah paul starts school tomorrow and can I be honest I am not excited at all for this long journey. I want to be back to an income oppose to monthly deficit. anyway I am super super jealous you are going to yosemite and lake tahoe both places I really want to visit.
ReplyDeleteI've been trying to approach the whole blog thing as a "family journal" of sorts. Lately I've been trying to keep a small record of our daily doings, as well as the bigger events in our lives, so that when we have kids and grandkids, they can read this old thing and have a better sense of what we were like when we were childless, young marrieds. What helps me is to think of what I want my kids and grandkids to know about me: our hopes and dreams, our good and bad days, our successes and failures, our vacations, our feelings about current events... you know, the stuff that makes up "life."
ReplyDeleteAfter this year is over, I am also going to move toward having each year printed up into a book, making it more permanent in the long run (well, as permanent as a book can be).
Hi you don't know me but somehow i clicked on your blog from a friends trying to get to another friends. Well anyways about your little one with asthma...i have a three year old little boy that suffers also. Your story sounds the same as ours, we were always at the dr with him and the nebulizer was our best friend. but we have found something that works and it is preventive, he uses Flovent, we have a one way chamber that he can use the inhaler with and works great with kids. I think the last time he was sick was about three months ago but other than that we haven't seen the dr since. It is amazing. a little pricey but AMAZING how much better he is.
