Just popping my head in to say “hi” and I promise there will be some content again before too long. The hubby is working about eleventy-five hours a day this month and I’m finding myself incapable of expressing coherent thought by the end of the day. Not much exciting to update you on but just so you won’t feel the trip was wasted…
- If you were wondering, my hand is totally still sore from my visit to the den of torture lab last week. For those who are counting, that’s nine days ago. Still sore. OW.Â
- My kids had their first dental cleaning today. I know, bad mom for not having my five year old already going twice a year. What did I learn from the experience? My 2 year old is a pro and dealt with the whole thing like an exciting new experience? My daughter was anxious and nervous and although she didn’t cry or scream, she wanted to. Â She is also exactly like me in that she gags easily, and generally hated every moment of sitting in the dentist’s chair, despite my best efforts to keep the atmosphere light-hearted! cheerful! isn’t this fun!!! SO! VERY! COOL! Yeah. Epic fail.
- I don’t know if I dare say it out loud but I think spring may actually have arrived here on the seashore. And we are very happy to welcome back warmer weather with open arms. Hell, who am I kidding? I would totally make out with the crocuses growing in my flower bed if I thought it wouldn’t end badly with me rolling in the dirt.
- I have no fourth bullet but it seems like there should be one more. As you were.Â

That post makes me feel a little better. Not that it has happened to me, but imagine if your 7 year old recently had his first trip to the dentist. The 5 year old is still to make an appearance there, along with a parent who hasn’t been there in many many moons and is now afraid that her finances will not withstand the battering it will take if she returns.

You should totally sling your sore hand, just for sympathy.
also, FYI, rare is the Mom who takes her kids to the dentist every 6 months. If your little people are *brushing properly* (he he he).
BTW, did your blog vote work? Does the hubby realise the error of his ways, or continue his reckless(lack-of) rinsing technique? (kidding, of course)

faaaany shtaff.
I especially enjoyed the trip down good ol’ akward florapheliac lane. Though I appreciate your airing out the ol’ soul window, that seems awfully intimate. How’s that workin’ out for ya. Is that what happens when sanity finally packs it up for good? Sounds kinky…and fun! (in a dirty sort of tree hugging kinda way)
also, ditto on the wanting of the update with the oral hygene situation thing.

Spring. On the seashore. Very jealous.
