Good news, but annoying

I got my meds this morning. The stupid postal lady took the box to the office last week! And she never left a note saying it was there. I got a call this morning from one of the girls in the office letting me know that the lady had said something and asked about it today. She checked, it was there, and she called. Had I known they were there, I wouldn't be as bad as I am right now! So, at least I have them and a free one on it's way. I just can't use it until tonight.

Tired

I'm tired of my Asthma. I had ordered my refil for my Asmanex on the 16th. It still isn't here. I've been on the phone today with Kaiser again and the post office. Kaiser is going to send me a months worth at no cost in hope of the rest showing up either here or there. If it doesn't show up, they'll send me 2 more months at no cost. Evidently, the post office lost it. Anyway, I know that between Christmas and the snow last week, it slowed things down, but still. Kaiser checked and the post office received it on the 20th...it's the 30th.

Anyway, I had been reading on TheBabyWearer.com about using Osnaburg for a wrap. The said that it's a good choice for toddlers because it doesn't stretch and it's cheap. Well, my mom gave me a $10 gift card for JoAnn's so I took my 40% coupon and the gift card and bought 5 yards of it today. It needs washed, trimmed, and hemmed. So, hopefully I'll get to try it soon. I tried to wrap Lilith up on my back a little bit ago, but it's just too wide and she pretty much fell out of the bottom. (Don't worry, I had my hands right there.) And Lilith thought it was hillarious. I've missed wearing her. I've been trying to use my MT more (I did when we went to get the mail yesterday and then while we were out today). It's been kinda hard because of my asthma. I'd love to use my Moby, but it's so stretchy, I'm not sure how it'll work with how heavy she is. I guess I could always just try. Anyway, I got the fabric mainly to get it figured out and worn in by our Disney trip. I'm also going to make a buckle MT for the trip. And a matching bag. I just have to find the right Mickey fabric. I found some that I really like, but it's flannel and I don't think that'll work. If only it came in just cotton. Or even the fleece I found. I have about 10 months to get it all done.

All of our snow is pretty much gone. There are a couple random spots that still have snow. Lilith keeps asking about the snow and ice. But, it's nice to be able to drive again and not wear a heavy coat. I went out today with just my short sleeved shirt.

Oh, and speaking of our trip. There's a pretty big chance we'll get to go when we wanted to! We want to go the week after Thanksgiving, but didn't think Kevin would be able to get that time off. Well, he put in his request yesterday or so. So, YAY! And, it'll knock off $3,000-4,000!

I really want to do something, but I'm not sure what. I have a shirt to fix for Heidi (Grr! She's kinda getting to me right now, but that's another blog), a quilt I could cut out, and who knows what else. Kevin keeps telling me to just relax because of my asthma. I kinda want to get Christmas put away, too. Maybe I'll work on that tonight.

Anyway, I'm gonna go for now. This is from last week. She loves that Mickey. Too bad he's going to be put away with the Christmas stuff. They were watching Mickey Mouse Clubhouse.

Snow!

So, we've been watching the weather forcast and knew there would be snow this weekend. Yesterday wasn't much more then rain. And I had checked off and on all night waiting for the snow to fall, but nothing. Then, when we finally woke up, it was all white outside. YAY! Only problem, I refuse to drive, and we still have shopping to do for Christmas. Here are a couple of pics.





There's actually a bird sitting on the top of the middle tree...you can see it when you zoom in. LOL



And this was yesterday at the craft bazaar we were at. (Yay, sold a whole $18 worth of stuff.)
