Pre-op part one




I took Jessica for her pre operation check up this morning. It went pretty badly. I had to pick Philip up at noon from school. We didn't get everything done. In fact, in 4 hours we only managed to speak with the Anesthesiologist. I could scream because the whole system is so poorly organized!!! They changed everything. You use to go to one location and have the whole screening done there. Now you have to go to 4 different locations. You stand inline and wait for a very unfriendly receptionist to take your papers. You wait in a waiting room for almost 2 hours before being seen. Then you move to the next receptionist, and the next 2 hour wait! Anyway, I have to waste tomorrow morning trying to finish the process. Jessica has ear surgery on Thursday morning. In the photos you can see a very board Jessica who refused to sit on the chairs. She insisted on sitting on the floor. I personally have a headache all over my body! I canceled all my other appointments for the day (one was actually kind of important). I'm not such a happy camper, but I'll get over it. I hate to miss my morning appointment (I have weight watchers on Wednesday). Jessica will miss the rest of this week at school, and maybe part of next week. I hate these stupid tumors that keep growing in her ears. This will be the 5Th or 6Th operation to remove the tumors that keep coming back! Juergen's mom had 4 surgeries to remove brain tumors that also just kept on coming back. If you believe in curses, you could wonder about this pattern in our family. It simply makes me angry! I guess the worst part is just how much pain and fear it causes Jessica. Man I hate this whole thing!!! I will get through this; I just want to scream a little!!!

chicken coop idea

Why not start with an IBC and cut a hole for the door? You could build closed laying boxes into it, and something for the chickens to roost on. Put some straw or saw dust on the floor. You could add vents to the side for air. If it sat inside a chicken run that you can walk into, the chickens could be safe, dry and happy. I have an extra IBC. Maybe this could be my chicken house? I bet I could even plant the outside of it with mud and grass for extra insulation and good looks.

Reading Kingdom

I am very happy to review the Reading Kingdom.   This is an online program that uses a variety of methods to teach reading.   I decided to share this product with my adopted granddaughter Ruth.   Reading kingdom uses a six skills integrative method Ruth only just began to use the program. She is only 3 years old and cannot use the program without help.   But her mom says that she can already recognize words like girl and kids when they are shown on the screen.   Sylvia wrote that she loves the repetition of the words in the program .   That Ruth is memorizing the words she sees.     She will be able to use it for an entire year.   But I expect her to become a very good reader.   And what a great gift to give to any child!   She will have a lifetime love for books.     Sylvia also works with teenage mothers in Uganda.   And many of these women have never attended school.   So she plans to use these ideas to help these young women learn to read. http://www.ReadingKingdom.com what

Taking at look at Hotels select

I have the chance to review Hotels select.   https://www.hotelsetc.com/ This is a really interesting travel club.   You pay a fee of about 200 dollars a year to use their very extensive site.   I got this membership free.   It has many deals of mostly hotels, but also rental cars, flights, restaurants and events around the world.   I have been spending days looking at what they offer.   So far what I’ve found is amazing deals on the places many people go.   For example, hotels in Orlando are 50% less than deals you find at booking.com.   Rental cars are often 25% cheaper than Rental cars.com.   And they have a search where you can book a condo for as little as 250 dollars a week just 1 mile from Disney world.   That is 7 nights for 250 dollars for up to 4 people.   The exact location on Airbnb cost 650 dollars a week. If you travel to places like San Diego, New York City and Las Vegas this site will save you a great deal of money.   If you rent cars you will also find it wo
