It's not that I don't have anything to blog about... I've just been so gall darn busy the past week so this place has only been in my thoughts a few times.

Lets recap a bit... The day I thought would be a nightmare logistically trying to get people to their appointments? Yup I was right, it was a complete and utter disaster... Dropped string bean off at his clinic appointment in the morning, scrambled to get my mother to her support group meeting but missed that entirely, traffic was horrendous. I did get her to her 1:30pm clinic appointment but the damn clinic was so behind she didn't get seen until 3pm, at which time I had to leave her to go pick my son up from the clinic in brampton for 4:00pm... So needless to say with the trips back and fourth to Toronto, between getting my kids and returning to pick up my abandoned mother in Toronto I did not get home until 8:00pm. As per usual my nerves were shot from the commute...

My daughter made me smile today though while we were out she had a fist full of fuzzy purple things, I think it was a scarf of something... She held up her fist and proclaimed... "I have A FIST OF FURRY" Oh boy I split a gut at her attempt at humor... :)

Hmmm, and then there was the day just after the nightmare logistics where I fell down the damn stairs... My daughter coming home from school and rushing down the stairs with me at the bottom I was so thankful she was there... So what does she do? She hops over me and says "I'm gonna use the computer ok daddy? Thanks!" I hobble my way over to my workstation where I sit and recover, unaided by my own family and to this day she still does not realize that she was so focused on the computer that she left me to die at the bottom of the stairs... All I could do was think "She's a chip off the old block"

The Physio room... Oh the glorious physio room... We are suppose to be there at 9:30am ish... Well we strolled in on Friday at more like 11:00am barely had an hour to finish her physio which was alright because my mom can only do around 10 minutes on the treadmill and the same on the bike... That last infection really cut her down...

To top the week off, I recieve a news letter with one of the kids school things that says that there is an outbreak of "Fifth Disease" at our kids school... OMG now the paranoia sets in as I worry that they will bring it home to the family... My mother, who is on immuno suppressants is particularily at risk...

Well, all in all the week went rather swell. :) Doesn't sound like it did to you? well that's cause you don't live my life... If you did you'd realize that days like these are fantastic and appreciated because they are somewhat uneventful.

A lot of stuff doesn't ever get to see the light of the computer monitor... Mostly because I do not want to offend people. One day however I plan to vent it all no matter who it offends. Today is just simply not the day...

Cheers!
