Rant and Rave

So I finally get to do something for myself- Massage Envy. Last month my massage person tells me that she may be cutting back her hours or if she couldnt she would have to go.

Well today she tells me that she is leaving. I still have a few months with Massage Envy before I can try and follow her.

I have had the same hair dresser since I was 12. I only change doctors when my insurance has to change. I have had the same dentist since I was a kid. I must not lose my masseuse.

So I have to put up with someone else through the rest of my contract and then I can go out.

WAAAAAAAA!

Easter 2009


DuPont has a easter egg hunt every year, to which we have taken Catie ever year since she was born. Of course her first Easter she was not quite a month old so she had lots of blankets on and Daddy got a couple of eggs for her. But as the years went by she was able to get them herself.


And the other thing that always stayed the same was the weather. It was cloudy and just when it was time for Catie's group to start, here comes the rain.


The people planning this hunt decided that the 0-3 year olds needed to be on the baseball field. So here are parents running through the baseball diamond to get the kiddos to the eggs. There were so few eggs that some kids didnt get any. We always stop at 5 eggs and bring a few suprises of our own to add as a secret.


So here are some pictures- She had fun getting the eggs and of course the candy. Afterwards we had hotdogs and life was good.

Doctor Visit

Ok so the doctor says I need to reduce my stress and get some exercise. So I join a gym and do Yoga- thinking it will be easy- WRONG!

Then I meet with the trainer to show me around. He made me do too much showing me some of the equipment and now wants me to pay buttloads of money and come 3-5 days a week. I tell him that I can do 2 days a week on machines and 1 day of Yoga and he aint listening.

Why do they never get the idea that customers know what they want and just want the help to get there????

Doctor and Dentist Visit

So Catie went for her 3 year well child check and everything was fine, of course. We have been blessed to have the same doctor since her delivery so everytime we see the dr. she cant belive how cute she it. She must get that from me :-).

The dentist however was a different story. When I took her for her 2 1/2 year check she was so good and they were even able to clean her teeth.

But this time the hygentist showed her the really loud suction thing and it hurt her ears- which are sensitive since the tubes and all- so they were barely able to look at and count her teeth. She has no cavities and we are keeping her teeth very clean- Boy that fighting over the sink some mornings is really worth it!

My appointment didnt go so well. When they took my blood pressure the bottom number was too high so the dr. told me I need to reduce my stress- yeah right like that will happen, eat a low sodium diet which I pretty much do anyways and get exercise. Thank goodness the school district just announced this great deal with LA Fitness so I can join a gym and they have childcare.

So I have been ordered to have that number lower the next time I go to the dr. which I hope is not until my physical next year. My meds seem to be working- I do get some extra anxiety from time to time but I have been fortunate enough that there has been someone there to help me get back to reality.

So I sign up tomorrow for the gym and will be at a yoga class at 830 Saturday morning. Oh man, I dont have anything to wear. Off to Old Navy I go :-)
