I ended up back in the ER last night.
Not for me this time, but for my oldest boy.
It's MRSA.
How the hell do I get rid of this stuff? How can I keep the rest of my family from getting it?
I've cloroxed everything I can bleach, I've Lysoled everything I can spray....I have hand sanitizer in every room, and am constantly yelling at the boys, "CLEAN YOUR HANDS!"
Bud had 3 abscesses that were swollen and painful. He went to the dr. on Tuesday but he didn't drain them! (I think he was afraid)..gave him Augmentin and said if they get worse, he'd send him to a dermatologist. ?????
Well, by Friday, he wasn't any better, in fact, he was worse. so I just took him to the ER. Holiday weekend=no doctor in.
they cut him open, drained them, gave him a stronger antibiotic and vicodon (!!!!!) and we were home in 2 short hours. Poor baby. He about broke my hand squeezing it when they gave him the shot to numb it. That hurts like a B%$#@!!!
So, I'm off to the pharmacy....again...to get some stronger meds.
Has anyone had MRSA? How do I "contain" it? Does this mean he and I are more susceptible to getting it again?
Oh, and Happy 4th. woo. hoo.

Another List
I think it's totally acceptable to:
...make all my phone calls from the bath tub.
...to eat a plate of french fries for lunch and count that in my "vegetable" serving for the day.
...to say YES every time my youngest asks to spend the night at a friend's house!
...to eat a bowl of apple cinnamon oatmeal at 3AM.
...to think,"Why....if I DID lose weight, there'd be nothing to me!"
...to feed my birds and squirrels before I feed myself.
...to talk for an hour and 18 minutes to Rae on the phone..and not run out of things to talk about.
...to run into an old friend in the store and stand around forever, catching up, exchanging photos and laughing your butts off at old times.
...to still get up in the middle of the night and check on the boys...even if they ARE getting older and don't "need" me. (ya right!)
...to read "Twilight" at least 4-5 times...just for Edward.
...to get my videos from the library. They have some great old black and white movies there!
...to eat popcorn in bed. every night.
...to check my blog before I check the world news.
...have Ramen Noodles for supper
...to eat "sliced and diced" mushrooms right our of the stinkin can..standing over the sink...with your pajamas on...at 4:37AM.
...count material and fabric as a necessity on your shopping list.
...to think the clothes in Walmart for 6 yr. olds look like hooker clothes.
...to pretend you're talking on your cell phone when you see someone from church in a store...so you don't have to say hi.
...to NOT accept as a "friend" everyone who requests it on Facebook(instrument of the Devil)
...to hide out in the garage when you've had enough of boys and men and dogs and anyone else wanting something from you.
...and to take a bottle of wine with you to the garage!
...to miss friends who've moved far away(Florida) more than you ever missed anyone in your own family.
...to make plans to run off and visit those friends with your husband...and NO. KIDS.
...to make a grocery list and then not get a single thing on that list...just avocados and diet coke w/lime. and a kit kat bar...which you dip into the jar of Jif when you get home. SO GOOD!
...think that your boobs are just fine the way they are.....a little saggy and soft.
...but the dimples on the butt have GOT to go!

Family ties
I don't know how many of you know this....
but I have a younger brother. he's my half brother, but I don't really bother with all that "half" and "step" and crap....he's just my brother.
Well, I haven't seen him since I was in California last , which was....mayyyybe 1974-1975....something like that. Haven't seen him or talked to him, nothing.
But I found his address through the wonderful Internet.
Should I write to him?
What in the world would I say??!
I'm scared....what if he doesn't remember me at all?
I wrote his mom a letter a few years back, but she never responded....so.....will he do the same?
I had a dream about it last night, so it got me wondering....

I'm doing much much better.
But now, 2 of my boys have bumps that are swollen and red. The youngest has a bump on the side of his thigh, which "popped" last night. and it. was. gross. That's all I'll say about that. But he said it feels better today. The oldest has what he thought was a spider bite on his lower leg. It's swollen and red. So, off to the doctor he goes today.
This stuff is invading everything!! I'm constantly taking their temperature....washing the area, telling them to wash their hands....I carry Germ X with me everywhere. UGH.
and then I was eating popcorn Friday night and I cracked my tooth off!!! Sheesh! So now I have to find a dentist, cuz this sucker is sensitive.
And all the Michael Jackson stuff is driving me nuts. Where were all these people when he was going through a child molestation case? he was just a "freak" then and a "pedophile"...no one had anything good to say about him. But now that he's gone, they all think he was a saint and God's Gift to Humanity.
Look, the guy was a PERFORMER...no denying that. he could put on a show like no other...and his songs are still so popular even today...but if you had to grow up like he did, you'd be a freak too. I feel bad for his kids, which turns out, aren't his kids at all. Like we didn't already know that?! Debbie Rowe didn't need to put her 2 cents in on all of this. What a waste of DNA she is. I'm sad that he died the way he did, but.............come on. My life won't cease to go on..... I feel bad for his family. But it seems to me they love the attention. So sad. and his dad is just a trip!
So many people have died lately. Life and death....it just goes on.

What would YOU do?
Tell me this;;;
what would you do if:
you're at the laundromat, doing your laundry. The place is empty, so it's just you in there.
In comes a woman with 6 little kids. and they are loud and crying....she starts screaming at them.
then a little while later, two little boys come over by you, to use the restroom, which is to your right. Then here comes this woman...screaming at the top of her lungs.
Now, this woman is about 2 times the size you are, and she has a HUGE black belt in her hands.
So she starts screaming at the older boy, of the two.
"You little mother f$#%^%! Get in there and help my baby use the bathroom!!! You mother f%$#^&* shit face, get your mother f&^%$*# ass in there NOWWWWWW. I will beat your mother f&^%$#^ ass right here, I don't give a mother f&^% where I am!!!" then she starts hitting him in the head and arms with that huge belt. He, of course, starts screaming.
"Stop your mother f^%$#@% screaming or I will beat your f^%&$#% ass!"
