Dern you Arachnids!!

Sunday morning we wake and get ready for church, and i spend most of my time studying the intriguing rash that is starting to break out all over my daughter's body. We decide to keep her out of nursery in case it's something contagious. We went over to my parents for the afternoon, and My mom and I studied her under the microscope, and both came to the conclusion that she has chicken pox.
So, Monday morning i call and get a doctor appointment, thinking about what a pain iy was gonna be to have two ithcing crying kids for a week or longer, and the pink lotion, and oatmeal baths and UGH.
Good news! NO chicken Pox! But it's whaaaaaat? SCABIES? EWWWW ewwewewewew! If ever you want to feel dirty, pick up a case of scabies. GAH! Nasty stuff. but give me two sick itching kids any day!
Yesterday i spent all day removing anything soft out of the rooms, pillows, blakets towels, stuffed animals, baby blankies, dollies clothes, baby dolls, even My little ponies. Wash the washables, and the rest gets bagged up for two weeks to make sure the mites die a slow death :P Every stich of bedding and clothing, any pillow, and chair, carpet, coat , carseat, anything you can think of, down in the laundry room, waiting to be washed :P The whole time i have a mental image of the dern things jumping off the items im washing onto me in an effort to save their species.
Last night we bathed them both in the hottest water possible, poor things, then caked Sammy in special prescription lotin and bound her in long jammies and socks like a mummy. We put her to bed on a clean bed, room with no toys, one blankie, and Mike walked out of the room backwards, spraying lysol on anything and everything as he went. LOL.
Today we tackle Grant's rooom, keep washing laundry, keep washing my hands and lotioning them, and praying i don't get the rash GAH!
well, im just about done with coffee, so i need to get going. oh, and DON'T Scratch!!
Oh, and the Scabies, are Arachnids, of COURSE they ARE!! My favorite kind of creepy thing there is, why not make them microscopic and put them under skin, UGH. I do not like them! I do not like them Sam i Am. :P

Your father... was seduced by the Dark Side of the Force.

As hard as i try, the Force is strong, and they keep trying to pull over the innocent to the dark side. (we left the kids alone with thier Grandparents for 30 minutes, and this is what i come back to! You just can't trust anyone! ) "Remember, a Jedi's strength flows from the Force. But beware. Anger, fear, aggression. The dark side are they. Once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny. Luke... Luke... do not... do not underestimate the powers of the Emperor or suffer your father's fate you will. Luke, when gone am I... the last of the Jedi will you be. Luke, the Force runs strong in your family." **sigh**, they ARE cute, maybe we could superimpose a Yankees symbol over her shirt? Then i could use it for Christmas pictures! :) "Then the Emperor has already won. You were our only hope." "Yoda spoke of another. " "The other he spoke of is your twin sister.........."

"Lawsuit in Isle 5!"

Not to trump my sis in law with her HILARIOUS treadmill story, but it runs in the family, and we all like doing things together, so it's fitting i get to tell a whopper to :) So, like i said, we went to super bowl this weekend, but before that, i made a pit stop to get junk food, caffeine, pull ups and hat and gloves for grant. ( you can't send them to Mamaw's house with no hat and gloves *lol* ) so. i went in, got my stuff, went to check out, and as im finally getting to the checkout, i start to chat with the normal seeming guy behind the register, as my children begin a high pitched terror induced scream. I prepare myself not to scream back at them and turn to see the cart.... the empty shopping cart with Sammy strapped in the seat, careening over onto it's side, on top of my 4 year old who is clutched to the edge with a "I'm gonna die" look on his face. I leap, leaving my wallet and card for anyone to swipe on the counter, and i grab the side of the car
