Where Did Wednesday Go??

Goodness! I completely forgot about dropping by here earlier today. I am still trying to recover from a lack of sleep from the storms we had. After I post the last entry, I was attempted to get a little sleep when a couple of storms decided to move a closer to us than the previous ones had. So from about 3am to almost 4am Tuesday morning we spent time in our downstairs bathroom as the house popped and creaked from the strong winds outside. The boys hung out in the tub, just in case we needed to take cover. Thankfully those 2 tornadoes decided to go a little further north too. The only damage from wind that I saw in our neighborhood is one of the neighbors trees split down both sides and some trash cans were blown over. Thankfully Drew didn't have school on Tuesday because he was VERY cranky! He still wasn't caught up today and I think was part of the reason (along with trying to get back in the routine of going to school) I had to go pick him up from preschool early. He had shoved 3 kids and when taken to the office, he crawled under the chairs and stayed there screaming. I really think I will have a full head of grey hair before I am 35 from this child! I did have to get up and go to a doctor's appointment though. I went to see an ENT (ear,nose & throat specialist) to discuss having my tonsils removed. He said he couldn't believe I hadn't had them removed long ago. Then he went on and on about how this would be very painful and the worst sore throat I had ever had. Now isn't that reasuring! *laugh* So right now I am scheuled to have my tonsils removed bright and early Saturday, March 15th. That is if I don't change my mind between now and then :) At least it would mean a week of rest for me after, plus he says I will probably loose 10-15 pounds since I won't be able to eat hardly anything during that week ;)

Before I head out of here for today....

Glad the tornados missed you! Not a good feeling when they are predicted thats for sure. Glad you have a basement tho!
I had my tonsils out at 21 and it was painful, but not as painful as getting strep throat and not being able to swallow. This pain goes away and you'll never have the 'really bad' sore throat pain again! Its really worth it! Hugs~
