...or displeasure.  lol.  depends on if you like them or not.  ha!  and then i will likely drop off of here for a couple of weeks.  (not that i am the most prolific blogger out there anyway!)  

but, i am having my wisdom teeth removed tomorrow, followed by driving my daughter to camp, followed by jury duty, followed by picking her back up from camp!  the next couple of weeks will be INSANE! honestly, i am kind of dreading it...  Troy will be off work for the surgery and the day after, but that's it.  it's all me.  ugh.  i can't re-schedule the jury duty.  this IS my re-schedule.  trying to get troy to take off work is like trying to move both heaven and earth.  i am hoping they will take one look at me and send me home.  (not banking on it.  you're talking to the girl who was 36 weeks pregnant and was put on a week long tort trial when called for jury duty in alaska.)  but, i a m hoping.   then i only have to arrange for childcare ONE day of jury duty instead of however many.  my mom was suppose to come in town yesterday.  (incase you are wondering why i would schedule oral surgery with no help).  unfortunately, my grandma had a stroke over the weekend.  she has not been in good health since january.  my mom is with her.  (not complaining about that.  just  saying why i don't have help.  she SHOULD be with her mom)  she re-scheduled her flight for later in the week; but, honestly, a lot of that will depend on how my grandma is doing - which they just don't know for certain yet.  so... if you are the praying kind, maybe keep her in your prayers?  and my mom?  i know this is a really tough thing for her.  the past 6 months have been really, really hard on her (and my aunt and uncle.)  

whew.  that was way more personal information than i normally share here!  but, it kinda felt good to share!  okay.  some fluff. and then i'm off to *attempt* to clean my house (that i just scrubbed 3 days ago - darn kids home all day messing up the place!).
