Paluxy Blues

today i don't think i'll use capitals b/c it hurts to type. this is a labor of love. we (kids & me) went with some friends today over to glen rose to dinosaur valley state park. it's a nice big park that strides the paluxy river. very pretty, but some of you may already know i'm not a river kind of girl. there were lots of slippery rocks that i fell upon (i think i slipped onto my rear 8 times, but i may have lost track) and, on one such occasion, tore a hunk of skin off tall man on my right hand. i don't think anyone else fell as hard or as often as i did, so i'm not sure if i had slippery soles or if i am just becoming highly uncoordinated. either way, i felt dumb. brandon had a blast, of course, but i'm hoping the trip will last him awhile because i don't think my body can take that abuse again. and do you know how often you type keystrokes with the tall man on your right hand? a lot, i tell you. but now i am home and smelling like a city girl once again. also, i'm very thankful for my homedics foot bath/massager and my homedics chair massager, too. both are doing a fabulous job right this moment as we blog. and don't hate me because i'm soft.

well, abby has officially broken her thumb-sucking habit. yay, abster! she's been off the thumb one whole month, so we don't think we have to worry anymore about her sucking it during her graduation ceremony in 2017.

the heezy is coming along nicely. looking to get in it mid-august still. sheetrock is up now. hopefully we'll get bricked next week. whoop!

i believe napoleon dynamite's grandmother had a similar rear end problem. you might want to call uncle rico for all the details. :-o

thanks...i'm really ok; it's just that whining makes for a more interesting post.
