Bad News, GOOD News....


I am playing bad news...good news....and while I am at it... I am linking up with my bloggy friend Grumpy Grateful Mom. 

Bad News:  I have an ear infection.  My ears are ringing like crazy.  I now understand why babies cry so much.  It hurts!

Good news:  Medicine.  I have it.  I also understand that it will get better.  The ringing should subside.  We hear with two frequencies.  Right now, I am hearing with only one which why they are ringing.

Bad news:  Public schools are not free.  They are not cash cows.  They are given table scraps. 

Good news:  When your kid is in a show and needs a costume that needs to be shabby.  Thrift stores are a life saver.  The choir is doing A night on Broadway and The Women's Ensemble is doing Hard Knock Life from Annie.  Well I made a killing at the thrift store.  I will be sharing pictures next week.

Bad News:  Ryan was sick.  He missed two days of school.  Oh he was miserable on day one.  My heart just ached.

Good news:  He is back to his normal self.  No clue what it was.  He complained his head hurt.  His eyes were watery.  He had a fever.  Stomach upset.  But he ate.  All is well.  And the light is back in his big blue eyes.

Bad news:  teen drama is never fun

Good News:  when there is love and support at home and at school, it makes that drama easier to deal with!

It's all how you look at it.   What's your good news?

I like how you wrote your post! Though sorry you've been sick. Ear infections are miserable. Thank goodness for medicine!

Looking forward to your thrift store pictures! I couldn't believe the great finds your Emily had on her site a little while back.

Have a great healthy weekend!

A Leave of Absence

Image
I just wanted let you all know that I am taking a (short) leave of absence. I was feeling under the weather last Friday, and Saturday I was a lump. By Monday I felt almost normal again. Tuesday even better! By Wednesday night the whole left side of my face felt completely packed. Today(Thursday) I am at death's door. Or maybe it's at mine! All I know is, I haven't felt this crappy in a long time. I spent the day at my mom's and mostly slept. Thanks Mom. Now Rich is home and he is running the show. I shall return...as soon as I stop feeling like this.

Dancing with the Stars---Dead

Image
That is how the show was introduced on Halloween night.  "Dead, from Hollywood, it's Dancing with the Stars!"  with your host, Tom Boooo-geron! Oh and Brooke who didn't get a play on her name.  Tonight, the dances are all spooktacularly themed.  Plus there is also a team dance. David and Kym 1-800-868-3406 David and Kym are dancing The Cha Cha and David wants to add magic to the act, so they bring in a professional magician to help with some basic tricks.  I enjoyed their Cha Cha.  It was fun. Len said it had  lots of tricks and treats and that David turned himself into a dancer! Bruno told him he has got the prestige, and that he was a natural at turning tricks. Carrie Ann said his improvement was phenomenal. She said he was polished and finessed, but that he needed to work on his holds. Scores: Carrie Ann:  8 Len: 8 Bruno: 8 Total: 24  JR and Karina 1-800-868-3410 JR and Karina are dancing the Tango to Ghostbusters. Why do they give such ch
