hello blog, i'm gonna be short tonight - as if i could get any shorter than 5'7"...haha...tammy's got jokes. but seriously, it's 1:30am - does it really matter if i'm short or not?
had apretty scary experience with my daughter yesterday. T passed out after getting a piercing. we had a moment of "i feel funny" so she sat down for about 5 minutes or so. we get out to the truck and i hear "mommy, i can't see!!!" and boom! she hit her head and was half on the floor of the truck, half on the ground. what the.....? freaken crazy!! all handled by the coolness of mom (yeah, right?!) i called the dr today and what i found out was that (paraphrased by me...lol) ....T had hyped herself up for this major pain. her body prepares for it and the brain goes into hyper overdrive. it tells the pancreas to release uber amounts of insulin to help calm down the "major pain" and what happened is the insulin rush and crash is what made her pass out. .....and.... add that to T taking a diabetic medication and dieting to lose weight and boom...you have my baby girl hitting her head on the door jam of the truck. she's been sequestered for the weekend though til we make sure all is better. i took her for a walk around the school block this afternoon and tomorrow we'll got alittle further...just to make sure. oh, and i have it in writing that she will never...ever...ever ask for and receive another piercing..lol
and on a side note: S did her first grown up thing without momyesterday. she signed her own doctor forms and went for a physcial without me in the room. ::::sigh::: her dad says i reacted like "that" (out of S's view) because of my control issues and i said no way. it's because my first born child is doing grown up things...things that have been MY job for the last 18 years. *I* need to adjust! i think i'm doing okay - i hope i'm standing far enough back in the shadows that she can't see me....but she knows i'm there if she needs me.
to further add to mommy's emotional upheaval - last night me and the girls (the girls and i?) were talking about getting tucked in bed. ihad tucked in little S and T said that she sometimes misses getting tucked in. (awwww) i siad 'i'll tuck you in tonight' and S said that i just stopped tucking them in cuz i'm meanand rotten and blah blah...LOL i said what actually happened was that they started staying up later than me so i had to stop tucking them in. but i never go to bed with telling them goodnight and that i love them. S tried to deny it - but she knows..lol
aaarrrggggghhhh!!!!! wearing that mommy of a 5 yr old hat and the mommy of a 14, 16, 18 yr old hat is SOOOOOOO difficult!! i sometimes forget to put a hat on, or take a hat off or i'm wearing the wrong one. no wonder my kids are a little crazy (lol)
had a great date with my hubby! got home a little late, the big kids didn't put the little kid to bed so Sh and daddy are sleeping on the living room floor on the camping mattress and mommy is gonna sleep on the couch (which is a loveseat) and my feet will dangle...and that fit's perfectly with what i started out saying about me being 5'7".
i'm trying to go to bed but my body won't let me. i didn't nap today hoping i'd get to bed early and i'm tired...like ...i'm ready for bed tired but...my body is a jerk and i wish there was some way i could just stop eating. just not eat anymore and i think all my problems would be solved.
well, i guess i'll grab my mediterranean cookbook and lay down on the couch - or go to my office first then go get on the couch. i have a lovely visual to guide me into lala land tonight and chances are - i will have ...lovely dreams.
