Just another Manic Monday

By the title, can you tell I'm a child of the 80's? Well, today was somewhat normal. I think Ali and I are just happy to get through a day without seeing a doctor....today wasn't one of those days. Ali had an appt. with an ob/gyn today to see what we should do about the ovariancyst she has along with maybe some ideas of why she is having these pains still. Long story short, we came up with some ideas one being IBS (irrital bowel syndrome) which won't be diagnosed until we see a GI specialist and another being a female issue that I won't get into. So, let's just say that the doctor gave Ali something to help with regulating things so she may not have so many issues as well as help with her iron loss.....does that make sense without being too graphic or giving too much info away? As a mom, I am saddened to have crossed this threshhold but having crossed it for similar reasons when I was her age, I emphathize.
Ok, change of subject, this weekend Adam and Jenn had a garage sale which meant we dumped some of our stuff on their driveway and hung out for a while. Ali and her friend, Nicki helped out pretty early since in California we get alot of people from over the border (trying to be pc) that come at the crack of dawn....literally. Doug and Adam were putting out signs at 5am and people were following them in their trucks....pretty scary! I walked over about 9:30ish with Jack and Ryan and when I saw Kenzie I asked Jenn "how much?" and she said I could have her for $3.00 which I thought was a pretty good deal until Gammie Buns offerred $5.00.....jerk! Also Kenzie was selling donuts for 25 cents and she asked me "Lo-Lo, do you want a donut?" and I said, "No thanks Kenz, I didn't bring my money!" and she replied, "That's ok, I have some money you can use." Then she pulled out a quarter and offerred it to me....so cute! Overall I think Adam and Jenn did pretty well....I think we made like $35 which was more than we had before the sale so pretty good I guess.
Later that day Ryan had his baseball party. Yep, it's finally over! What a great season though! Ryan was named best short stop which I know will make Uncle Adam and Uncle Mark happy! Speaking of Mark, he's coming home tomorrow! I am sure that Stacie won't sleep a wink tonight and the kids are sooooo excited! And speaking of sleep....goodnight!
