Not another thing.....

Okay so Friday the 5, I was cleaning the kids rooms and all of a sudden......I got a pain in my butt. Yep that's right, in my butt. Do you think that maybe it was because I was cleaning the bedroom's of my dear sweet children? Anyway the pain did not stop there, it traveled down my leg and into my feet, and now I have not felt my big toe and it's surrounding area for almost 2 weeks! So after many attempts to the chiropractor, I decided to go to my primary care dr. He is now sending me for a cat scan (no MRI-Pacemaker) with and without contrast. I am also going to a pain management doctor and a neurologist. I have to have some kind of nerve scan. FUN FOR ME!!!!!! I know that you are all jealous, because I got to spend a week in bed on loratab and muscle relaxers. As of now, my Christmas tree is not decorated, there are Christmas bins in my living room, my shopping is not done, and my cards have yet to be sent out and the big day is next week. Oh, and we are leaving town on Wednesday. Na, I not stressed or worried. I'm taking pain killers. So if any of you see me around this week and I look like a character from Fraggel Rock, you will know why. I think that this is just one more pain in the butt that I can blame on the kids. But, at night when they are asleep and are peaceful...just for those few moments before you go to sleep...kinda makes it all worth it.

Moral of the story....Cleaning your kids room can cause a pain in the butt!
p.s. if your Christmas cards are late, I am blaming it on the loratab!

Halloween...(don't laugh, better late than never)


We were in Salt Lake for Halloween because of Lacey's wedding. Shayna wanted to be Gaberiella from HSM2 when she is a life guard, but I told her that we were going to SLC for Halloween and that it would be too cold. So, she setteled on being a witch. Bryce was going to be a ninja, but changed his mind at the last minute and was a boxer. We went to my sister's ward/neighborhood trunk-or-treat and they we went trick-or-treating in my Mom's neighborhood. We had a really great time and it was so fun to spend the holiday with my family. We have never done that before, it was a fun change!
