Just a quickie

Been a little swamped lately but here are some catch-ups!

Two weeks ago I hurt my neck...MRI....bulging discs, one really bad. Had little to no use of left arm...I am left handed. Missed dancing at the Bradley Days show the culmination of all year long practicing. Today I have been released by my chiropractor and all is well. As he put it "you dodged a bullet, don't do it again."

G-son has lost two teeth! He calls and will only tell me not g-pop. Why? Because g-mom makes sure the tooth fairy comes to her house too. Last night our conversation went something like this:

Him: G-mom I lost another tooth, can the tooth fairy leave money at your house again?

Me: That's wonderful! I will leave her a note and ask her.

Him: Ask her for $2. I really need $2 this time.

Me: Why $2?

Him: Because its at your house and grandpa will give it to her.

Me: Well, we will see. The amount of money depends on how big the tooth is and how many you lost and how much money she left at your house.

Him: G-mom just tell her OK? Its a big tooth and she only leaves me change at my house. Just tell her g-pop will pay her back.

Me: OK, I'll tell her.

Meantime g-pop is cracking up over this whole thing because as he puts it "Now I have to payback the tooth fairy?"

I'm already for Thanksgiving! Yep, everything is prepared, turkeys are prepping for frying and I have Knob Creek bourbon and Canada Dry ginger ale sitting in the wings!

So HAPPY THANKSGIVING to everyone! Make sure you count your blessings, especially this year...its been rough on everyone directly and indirectly! If you can have your family and friends close to you then this is something everyone should be Thankful for, even if you don't like them. Above all else even the ones we really can't stand have taught us something....SELF CONTROL and PATIENCE!

I got in hot water with the tooth fairy once...Mini found the teeth I had been saving and got very mad...and the first lie I could dream up was something along the lines of the tooth fairy turned the teeth in to account for every dollar she gave out during the night and it had to match with her boss...and then he knew mothers were sentimental and all...so after he tallied everything up...he mailed the teeth back to mommies to keep. I had to mail myself the next 8 teeth!!! and MINI always had to check the mail...I wasn't allowed!!!

NI: Oh thats good! An old bosses wife decided to sprinkle "fairy dust" around the window across the floor and up under the pillow to prove to their 6yo that there was a tooth fairy. Well the little girl cried and cried and wouldn't sleep in her own bed for a month because she wanted to know how the tooth fairy got in if the "alarm was set"!
