2009-Dec.24 Shh! Santa's Coming Tonight

All is calm, All is bright..... and best of ALL . . .

All is sleeping, dreaming of Santa Claus coming to drop off presents. At least this year Joseph is sleeping in his own bed. (Remember, last year he slept in a sleeping bag right by the tree so he could "catch" Ole St. Nick. But Santa caught him, sleeping, and snapped a picture of him.)

Poor Bryan has to sleep sitting in Dad's chair.

2009-Dec.23 OMG OMG OMG OMG

When will people start listening to me? I really wanna know!
This is what happens when they don't. And by "people" and "they" I mean my Children and Grandchildren. In particular this time, Bryan and Joseph. They know NOT to go on the road with the 4-wheeler and the dirt bike,but OH NO! It's fun to do what you're not suppose to. Right!? - - - WRONG! Yes, they took the bike and the 4-wheeler on the road. I think they were "racing" each other. One cut in front of the other, and voila! WRECK! WIPEOUT! INJURY!
OMG! Joseph came a running, "Uncle Bryan is hurt". "He can't get up!" Krystyn went running. I had the 2 babies with me, but I got in the car, and drove up the hill to find my son. . covered in blood and delirious. "I'm okay" he said. I don't think so. Get in the car, leave the d *&^n bike, we'll get it later (or not!). You need to go to the ER. NO I don't. Yes you do. Nope. This went on and on. Until he told me, "What Happened?" Oh My Gosh! Krystyn get him in the car and take him NOW! Bryan you are going! I don't need to. GET IN THE D*&^%n car NOW!. Several hours later, no broken bones, no concusion - Thank God! He got stitches and pain meds. He will definitely need those. Just look at him!. My poor Baby - next time. . listen to yo momma!!

OUCH! EWW! EEK!

What a way to be over the Christmas Holidays. Oh well, I guess we'll remember this one. Huh?!

2009-Sept.06 A Sunday Drive & A Harley Accident

Well, we have a 3-day weekend - yeah! I was starting to arrange some boxes that are needing great attention. You know, things I need to organize, throw out, give to children. But then, I stepped back into a sharp object and cut the back of my foot-right above my tennis shoe. I freaked out at the blood, woke Johnny up from "his" nap so that he could doctor it up. Man-it burned. It was sore. But I'm okay.

Johnny has been trying to fix the HEATER, of all things, in my SUV. It hasn't worked for about 4 years now. He thinks it's a part that is not opening properly.

Not much else going on. Just trying to scan some old photos.

And now, also trying to think about the holidays coming up. Sooner than later.

Mmmmm, I - I mean, WE need to sit down and figure out what we're going to spend on everyone this year. This year there will be 4 Grands - increasing by 1 more Grand. And we have Steps too.

Oh, how could I forget this one. . . .Johnny was riding his Harley (and Joseph was with him too) They were over by Schroeder Dance Hall and he said all of a sudden something hit him - Right Between The Eyes! OMG! He said there was no car that drove by or anything, so we think it was a bug, must have been an awful big bug, right!?! Luckily, he kept it together and was able to pull over to the shoulder to stop. A neighbor drove by -going to the races - offered to bring Johnny home - he said he was able to drive himself, and then they took Joseph to the races with them. Johnny called me to come get him, but then he decided to drive home. By the time he got home blood was running down this face. He so darn lucky that whatever it was, it didn't hit him in the eyes.
