i forgot to type this one earlier and didn't want to add to that post for fear that some of you had already read it and wouldn't re-read it. so here it goes...
today when i went to get bronson from the babysitters he had a shirt on that i had bought for braylon. it is a 2T and it fits him. come on what 5 and 1/2 year old boy can wear a 2T long sleeve shirt?! i said bronson that is braylon's shirt and he said "i don't care, i liked it so i am going to wear it" good thing it fits:)

Coming or Going?
i don't know whether or not i am coming or going today or yesterday! lets just say i have been crazy busy with work, kids and myself!
tomorrow is my surgery. i have to be there at 7 and my surgery is scheduled for 9. unless they call me today and change it for some reason. i am not nervous at all. my doctor did tell me yesterday that i need to decide whether or not to keep my ovaries or have them take them out. i really didn't want to make this decision but after much thinking and talking to others i am going to keep them. she had several pros and cons for both ways but my heart is telling me to keep them, so that is what i am going to do!
yesterday i had to get braxton's cast put on and go to the dr and the hospital for pre-op. work was crazy on top of all that. the whole 2 hours and 45 minutes i was there. then last night i thought i would clean my van out. i had left 3 doors open and then jared hollered at me to help him. well while i was helping him braylon decided to hang out in the van and pretend to drive. so he shut 2 of the 3 doors and went on his way. well when i was headed into the house i shut the last door and went around to the other side to get something out and the doors were LOCKED, with my keys in the ignition. and the extra set in my purse. oops! i tried to get them unlocked with some little gadget but no such luck. well jim robertson's told me they could make me a key ($45) but i had to show proof of ownership. ok, how can i do that when all of that is in my glove box and i can't get to it b/c the doors are LOCKED! but thanks to andrea for telling me this morning to use my title which was in the safe, that wasn't locked! anyhow, come to find out phil beeler has some AWESOME gadget to get doors unlocked. it worked! so, thanks phil! i didn't have to make a flying trip to kv to get a key made on my lunch hour.
so today! i had to take braylon to the dr b/c he isn't feeling the greatest. they gave him an antibiotic and a decongestion. i hope he starts feeling better soon. we have soccer tonight, i need to pick up my house and cook my last meal for awhile! woo hoo on that one!
so please remember me in your prayers tonight and for the next few days. the surgery should take 1 to 2 hours and then i should have to be in the hospital for 3 days. i hopefully will be coming home on friday!
i won't be able to blog for awhile, but once i am able i may be walking to andrea's and getting on her computer to check my email and update my blog. i am not looking forward to not being able to work out so maybe doing some walking every day will satisfy me.
anyhow, hugs to all and i will be in touch!

Bronson funnies!
I have two funny/sweet stories on Bronson.......
1) the other day we were heading somewhere and he said "mommy, how come you didn't name me Gene Autry?". i was stunned! i said well i don't know why. would you like to have that name. and his reply was "YES". he really likes to watch that show when he stays at my gma margies.
2) today is my grandpa raymond's bday. he died a few years ago. so when bronson was at my grandma margie's again today she told him that it was grandpa raymond's birthday today. he said well where is he? and she told him that he was in heaven. he asked her if she was going to go to heaven too. and she told him yes. and then he said " i bet he will be excited to see you!" (yes dry your eyes now so you can read on). he also wanted to know if she was going to have to take her cane with her to heaven. she preceded to tell him the story why she wouldn't need it and then he said " i just love God!" (ok, dry your eyes again).
i just loved both of these stories that i had to share this post separately than any other:)

Happy 33rd Birthday Jared!
tomorrow is jared's 33rd birthday! it seems just like yesterday was his 30th. does everyone remember his surprise party? he was so surprised. i knew he didn't like surprises but i still did it and pulled it off. we already did something for his birthday in july. we stayed at the stoney creek inn in columbia after the show me state games. we jumped the gun a little bit b/c we didn't really know what sept would bring. tonight we aren't going to do too much. i need to get groceries so we may go to kv. tomorrow is soccer, flag football (even though brax can't play we are still going to go and watch them play), a bridal shower and then out for jared's bday with vance and andrea. i think vance and jared have something up their sleeves.... even though it is jared's bday:) sunday we have a baseball/softball meeting and supper at his parents for his bday.
braxton is doing really good. he did have a lot of pain yesterday, but i think he is going to make it. thanks to everyone for asking about him. he is going to get his cast on on monday.
also, i want to thank.... jenn, andrea, amee, erin, cindy tallman, laurie ulrich and sara beeler ahead of time for food:) jenn wanted to set up dinners for me and my family after i have my surgery. i think that is a great thing and am very thankful for you guys! i know jared will appreciate it. he is kind of picky when it comes to eating other peoples food. when i told him last night what jenn wanted to do he gave me this look, like are you kidding me, me eat someone else's cooking. i reassured him that it wouldn't be from any dirty homes and who they were and then he was ok with everything. he is sooooo weird! he will eat out anywhere not knowing who is cooking or what the the kitchen looks like but stresses about someones home cooking. i don't get it, but i am glad that he is ok with you guys bringing us food. thanks again guys:) i will repay you someday when you need it!
hope everyone has a great weekend. sounds like the weather is going to be great. enjoy the outdoors, you won't be able to much longer!

What happens when you upset the fruit basket/salad?
Someone gets their arm broke! and that someone was Braxton:(
He was playing "fruit salad" last night at Sonlight. Which I guess this game is a lot like musical chairs. It was just one of those "freak" accidents and if they did the same thing again it probably wouldn't happen. Someone just landed on his arm just right and he broke it right above his wrist. It was a clean break and won't need setting or surgery. Thank goodness! It was his left arm. So we were thankful for that and that it wasn't during baseball season. He will get it casted next week and then he will have the cast on for 6 weeks. He was in a lot of pain until we got it supported and then he hasn't been in any pain. He is a tough little guy. I am sure this is one of many to come. But who would have thought that playing a game like that would do it instead of when he plays baseball, football, rides the four wheeler or his motorcycle, jumping on the trampoline or even rough housing with his dad and brothers. Another day, another doctor trip:) Thank goodness for AFLAC!Wednesday, September 24, 2008
Absentee ballots!
That is all I have done today. I think my eyes are going to be crossed before this day ends! I am absolutely exhausted. I am not sure why, but I don't like it. I have been to bed early every night for the past 3 nights and it doesn't seem to be helping. I may be a little stressed which could be why I am tired.
I am normally not a stressful person but I think deep down in my body it is stressed. I don't feel it but I think it is there. I am thinking the stress is b/c in one week I am going to have my hysterectomy. I am not worried about the surgery b/c I have been there and done 3 c-sections and this is going to be just like it but I won't be coming home with a baby. So having this surgery is probably the cause of my stress. Why? because in 41 days it will be the election. I want everything ready and done when I have my surgery. When I leave work for a couple of weeks I want Dolores to have things go smoothly. I trust her completely but I am hoping that I don't forget to do something so she won't have to do it, hoping that I have good instructions on "how to do" things so she won't stress. Then I guess I am stressing b/c just "what if" something would go wrong and my kids would be without a mother. I think that that may be the main cause of my stress. I know it is a slim chance of something happening but you still worry about it. I know all of you would too. So please keep me in your prayers that I get everything done that I want to in the next week and that my surgery and recovery time goes well. Thanks in advance.
Better run. Gotta go mail 17 absentee ballots so people can VOTE! for who? not sure! that is a whole nother subject for a different post!
