It has been a long time...

Wow, it has been a long time since my last post. Just a few weeks after my last post my cousin and best friend (Leanna) died suddenly. This turned my life upside down. I think I am finally starting to get my head out of the clouds...

Dad is doing well.. as well as well can be I suppose... no better no worse.

Well I think that is all I can manage for tonight but I will get back in the swing of things soon.

Toothaches Are Bad For My Back!!!

Ok so... it has been a crazy month and I haven't written at all... we are recovering from a toothache... well, Dad had a toothache last month and that was quite a week! He was complaining that it hurt - then it swelled up and he was in excruciating pain. Since the dentist knew he couldn't treat it until the infection was gone he prescribed antibiotics and pain pills. Oh dear Lord... Dad on pain pills???? Those innocent looking little white pills took away every bit of strength he had.. and for 3 solid days taking care of Dad was like taking care of a 200 pound bean bag! Oh lawdy!!! My back... not to mention my scars from his emotional outbursts... man he is grouchy when he doesn't feel good.. typical man! I am glad it cleared up otherwise I may have had to start slipping him sugar pills!

So we were able to go to the dentist and of course the only thing left to be done was to pull them.. yep 2 of them! But Dad didn't feel like it that day. What?? Are you insane man????? Do you have any idea how painful this toothache has been????? Not to mention the "trip" to the dentist... ????

So... we left the dentist... another prescription in hand.. just in case...

Oh Dear Baby Jesus! I am hiding the candy bars! :)
