Dylan and Ted are off to the vet. today for more shots. Then they should be good for another year or so. It is raining and nasty here today, supposed to change into high winds and snow by tonight...like I said before, we will see about that. Andrew has to work all weekend again. Saturday is a scheduled workday and Sunday he has to take an applicant to Milwaukee....again. This means 14 days in a row with no day off! He is trying to work something out today so he can have at least 1 day off this weekend. His staff is spoiled and not wanting to spread it around.

Went to my doctor yesterday, my blood pressure was still not where he wanted it so now I am taking more pills to try and lower. Side affect is dizziness...oh goodie. He said when I go to stand or move, I should pause and wait to make sure I won't fall down. It's great to be 40. I swear I'm trying to cut down on caffeine, exercise, eat right (somewhat), and I just cant get that bottom number down. Oh well, the miracle of meds.

I am 1/2 through another book about an FLDS girl who escaped. I paid 25 dollars for it at shopko because I wanted to read it. It was worth the money. I don't know why I find them so fascinating, but it is a good read. I will pass it on to whoever wants it when I'm done. It is called, "Stolen Innocence". She was married off at age 14 to her first cousin whom she hated and despised. So far, she has suffered 4 miscariages. I can't put it down!

Today report cards come home. I am anxious to read their teachers remarks. Benson is so curious about everything. He is trying to read everything he sees....it's exciting to watch. Davis continues to ace everything at school, I just don't feel he is being challenged. At least his self asteem is high because of it. Yes, I am speaking to his teacher about it next week.

Rainbow, I am trying to muster up some energy to get in the basement and start pulling out Christmas decs. I don't like doing it alone though. I need Andrew to heave the boxes for me...or do I? We will see how it goes. It's on though!

Have a good weekend everybody!
Love Kim
