Section 3: More Local News
We've managed to almost complete another eventful but quiet week. And a record breaking one.. no trips to the doctor with my kids! But, I managed to make 2 trips with my mother. Paulie has had a rough week. It started with a visit to the Urgent Care on Sunday with an abscess on the back of her head. She has been to the doctor every day to nurse her wound. And it has definitely been hard on her. Not only has she missed work everyday, she has had numerous needles stuck in her and been on lots of pain meds. The strange abscess did not want to go away, instead it continued growing and filling up with infection. I think she is finally on the mend. She will be returning to the surgeon in 2 weeks for a followup. Whew!
Karlee seems to be on the mend as well. I think.... I I better not speak to soon. She doesn't seem to be showing any signs of her ear infection. We will be going for a followup in 2 weeks. I pray we make it that long.
Jalen has been preparing for a field trip today- Heritage Day Celebration. His class has been studying different cultures and Heritages. We have known about this field trip for several weeks and have been required to send in numerous items weekly. On Monday I received a note stating that Jalen is required to dress up for this event-- ummm, thanks for the 4 day notice! He had a choice of a Japanese Samaria, a Native American or a Farmer-- dah, guess which one we picked!! A Farmer it was! And of course we had nothing to complete that costume at home. So off to 4 stores to find overalls, a straw hat and a flannel shirt- $40 later. I must say, he did look like a true farmer this morning.
Brandon continues to amaze me each day. Last night as soon as we walked in the door, he was asking for a snack. and out of his mouth came "Mommy, can I have some candy.. it's good for me!" What! If I recall, my response to him when he asks me for candy is the complete opposite! I can't win with that kid.
We have another busy weekend planned.. maybe a trip to the zoo with Lisa and Jacob, John will be working and taking Jalen to the USC basketball game, and I am going to attempt to paint the kitchen. On Sunday our kids are being dedicated at church- 9:00 service at the Harvest!
