Adios Mis Amigos,

Deaths Waiting Room aka Cardiologist office

wow, sorry for the MIA but we have been super busy every day getting hubs caught up on all of his long over do Dr.'s appointments. Don't know about the men in your life but trying to get him out to any kind of medical appointment is like pulling teeth! I finally convinced him that since little man's arrival both of us need to be doing everything possible to be the healthiest parents we can be.

Yesterday and Today were spent with a bunch of different tests but I spare you the boring medical side and just share with you the sadness that consumed me . .. . this is a multi physician practice with over 20 dr's all working out of this one clinic, so you can imagine a waiting room full of 20-30 patience all waiting to be seen. I guess the scariness of something being wrong with your ticker makes you want company. There with mothers and daughters, fathers and sons, husbands and wives and all the mixtures in between. The majority of the patience were . . . well old folks. ... we are talking 70's and 80's and a few well past that . . . all shuffling along or being pushed in their wheel chairs. . . then there was hubs and I .... in our late twenties hanging out with the senior citizens club.

All were friendly and making conversation. We had Esther who was preparing for her triple bi-pass, Frank, Harold, and Walter all in after a heart attack. The list goes on and each and every one I envisioned having an amazing life story. Frank was a sassy little firecracker. Not ready to throw the towell in just yet. He made a point of flirting with the nurse at the check in station, and being fiesty when Harold mentioned he was from NYC. I had brought my laptop in an attempt to get our pictures organized and at the sight of a baby I was surrounded... everyone oooohing and ahhhing and I've gotta say it made my heart happy.

But it made me super reflective and even more insistent on making our lives count. On getting to the point where we are old and gray, sitting in the cardiologists and being able to oohh and ahh at some new young life.It also made me call my grandparents (little man's great-grandparents) and tell them how much I love them. How thankful I am that my family is healthy and active and not quite in the "death's waiting room" category. 

Adios Mis Amigos,

Smiling Saturday

Lately Saturdays have just been an extension of the work week. The hubs usually picks up overtime, leaving little man and I to tackle another day flying solo.

This Saturday we are going to the zooooooooo !!!!! All the stars aligned (hubs was off from work, friends have a family membership and got us in for free)  (imagine me smiling from ear to ear like a 2 year old) I have been begging pleading asking the hubs to go for a while now. I'm all about the zoo and I don't really know why. Always have been and probably always will be. I love being so close to animals that I would never see in real life. Being able to observe them up close and personal is just too cool for me.

Hopefully little man will share this love, if not, I'll force it on him and drag him along with me every chance I get I'll find other things we can share.But hopefully he'll love the zoo too :o)

Pictures to come as soon as I have time to syn and edit .... but yay for the zooo !!!


 Adios Mis Amigos,

Tackle it Tuesday . . . .surviving

 ok first of all.. if this image is not the funniest thing I have seen all morning I don't know what is.... this is exactly how I feel!!! like a hot mess!!! I'll give her credit though at least her slippers, bra and undies match... I'm in a disarray of pajamas with dry crusty cereal (little man's breakfast), a tshirt with a healthy does of pukey (little mans morning bottle), and freezing cold feed cause the freaking dog chewed my slippers.

last night was the worst night sleep I have had since popping out little man. . . .I tossed and turned the entire night and when I finally did manage to fall asleep I would have some weird, scary, or twisted dream that startled me back to consciousness. . . .so my tackle it tuesday today is simple. . . .SURVIVE

my mother in law is here watching little man . . . today is supposed to be the day that I get massive ammounts of school work done, clean and tidy the house, write a few whitty sarcastic blog posts,  and get done all of little man's laundry.... well friends... it's nearly 12:15 and I've managed to have a cup of coffee and a bowl of cream of wheat, return 4 emails, and waste 30 minutes on facebook.... needless to say... much still left to do and zero energy to do it.

I'm going for a refill of coffee and praying that I will find some hidden burst of energy to at least get done the school stuff that needs to be completed today.. the rest can wait for another day (except little man is nearly out of burp clothes/pukey wipes) so perhaps school and a load of pukey wipes!

Adios Mis Amigos,
