How long are you out when you faint?


Here's a little conversation between Sager and myself, it goes like this...

Sager - you know when someone rings the doorbell and you, well not YOU but like me goes and answers it and it's like a famous person.... kind of like.... oh, I don't know.... Taylor Swift.

Me - has that happened before?

Sager - no but I'm just saying....

Me - Oh, o.k. because I was just wondering if maybe I missed something...

Sager - well let's just say it happens... o.k.?... so Taylor Swift is at the door and you, well not you but me, answers it and you scream, you know not you but me...

Me - yeah I get it... not me...

Sager - yeah well when I answer the door and I scream and faint, what happens when you faint?

Me - Well - I've never fainted... so I don't know....

Sager - What happens when you faint? Is it like sleeping?

Me - yeah I guess so...

Sager - well let's just say that I fainted, how long are you out?

Me - I don't know - Is Taylor Swift coming over later?

Sager - I sure hope so!

Sager's growing up....






Yesterday Sager went to a birthday party for some sweet little girls who were with him in the NICU when he was born premature. Abbie, Allison (and soon Sager) are 9 years old. I can't believe it's been 9 years since they were all born. Here are some pictures of Sager at their party. He just loves swimming!! After we got home, I worked on some laundry and I went into his room and he's sitting mesmerized in the middle of his room on his toy box. I asked him what he was watching and he took just a second and said this girl has been infected with Cryptosporidium. She got it from drinking contaminated water. Really? geesh! You gotta love Monster's inside me! Have you watched it? Sager is totally, totally mesmerized!! Maybe he'll be a scientist. Summer is ending soon.... we better get busy getting some things done!!!

Friday Flip Off's.....

Yeah you read it right - It's Friday and I'm flippin' off everything that made me mad this week. I saw this on another blog and loved, loved, LOVED the idea of it.... hmmmmm where to get started?????

To all the people who wore the most inappropriate bathing suits at Hurricane Harbor - here's to you a full flip off!!! you wouldn't believe all the boobs, butts and guts that we were subjected to on Thursday - holy moly - and the old lady who stood at the lockers lotioning and oilying her 70 year body - I'm flipping you off with both hands because as you bent over to lotion up your legs - you flashed Brandon and I some of the scariest two things I've ever encountered.... **shudder**

To the freckles and age spots that came after we left Hurricane Harbor - boo-yah to you too!!! you're going to get a single flip off because part of it is my fault - I didn't wear sunscreen but that shouldn't matter - everyone knows that you look better with sun damage.....

To all the rain - yeah, yeah, yeah, I know that farmers love you but enough already..... I'm tired of the wetness..... flip -off!!

To teenagers - a behind the back, over the shoulder and up in the air FLIP-OFF!!!! I once went to a work shop that says teenagers are really only demons for three years - I'm currently testing this theory - you'll have to wait on my findings!!!


Now so that no one thinks that I'm nasty and negative - I have High-Five Friday for some fabulous things that happened this week!!!!

A High-Five goes out to Cook's Children's Hospital.... they had volunteers in the waiting room playing and coloring with the patients - how nice is that????

Another High-Five goes out to Dr. Scott Perry of said Cook's Hospital - a fire ball of knowledge and humor - he's our new pediatric neurologist - as we're visiting with him - Sager leans over and tells Brandon - I like this dude!!!

A High-Five of course to Sager for being so well behaved at Cook's Hospital - he had to get an EEG done and when the guy finished with the test, Sager stuck out his hand to shake and told the guy - thanks for everything - you were great - how mature is that?

A High-Five goes out to Scout for going and helping his Pawpaw go build fences in Gruver. Surly but sweet - I just love it when someone other than me has to feed Scout and share in my grocery pain!!! Ha!!!! (I really should high-five Scout because he is working at Heather's and working some at a local vineyard.... but I wouldn't want his head to get tooo big!)

and so no one will ever accuse me of being un fair - a HIGH-FIVE to Shawlee-tamalee, we are so blessed to have him - I just love that guy!!!

So there you go - Flip offs and High Fives for this week - who do you want to flip off or high-five???
