just owies

A quick update from my fall on Monday:

It appears as though I still have "just owies".  I'm still amazed that I didn't get hurt worse.  I have soreness on my left hip/leg and scratches that are healing up and I can get around just fine. So far no bruises!

In other news:

We're going on six days of no "getting sick to the tummy".  Yehaw!

Dan & his bro/business partner are working hard to get their new business off the ground.  This is new territory for them and it's a stretching and growing time.

The kids and I are working hard on staying sane in the condo.  The stormy weather we had earlier in the week was awesome but not conducive to getting out much.  We were able to get out today for 30 minutes (just about all any of could handle with the heat and humidity).

There was an awesome thunder and lightening storm the other night.  It really picked up when I wanted to go to bed so I ended up staying up later than intended.  One of the claps of thunder sounded like an explosion accompanied with a flash of lightening startling me so much that I involuntarily jumped away from the window.

Our old dawg is still hanging in there.  If she survives this trip I'll be pleasantly surprised.  The storms alone might give her cardiac arrest.

The kids keep fighting over who gets to mop/sweep the floor with our new fangled mopsweepthingy.  Oh to always have such a problem.  Maybe I should by a few more so they can all have their own.  Naaaah.  We're all about sharing around here aren't we?

We could see the river very well looking out our living room window yesterday morning.  We, normally, cannot see it that well.  Gulp.  Thankfully it receded some by the afternoon.  We went over to a riverfloaty (don't you love how I make up my own words?) pick up area nearby (where the bus picks people up after floating down the river) and saw how far up the river had gotten on the steps.  When we were there last night it was still quite high.  I do not envy the clean up crews.

It's naptime right now and I'm wondering if the landscaping people will come by our bedroom windows, AGAIN, with a leaf blower.  We're on the second floor.  Seriously?  Leaf blowers on the second and third floors?  Will the kids get woken up? Probably.  At least, today they slept in pretty late so Mama Bear won't necessarily rage.

Abadee abadee I think that's all folks.

- it's blahg! mb
