Most Painful

More like the pain of all of my frustration!

For the last two weeks I have been battling a sinus infection, allergies and the most painful something that no one would really put a name to. The doctor at themed stop said it was allergies and fluid behind my middle ear drum. My regular doctor's nurse told me that it probably wasn't an ear infection because most adults (and I've heard this before) don't have ear infections but have TMJ instead. I realize that but I couldn't hear out of my left ear suddenly and it was more painful than ever. By Tuesday, I was almost crying with the pain. I called my ENT and asked if there was any way I could see him or the PA and they got me in that afternoon. The PA told me that it was definitelyTMJ, did the test for fluids in my middle ear and then took me back for my hearing test. When I ws finished with the hearing test, the lady told me I had lost a dramatic amount of hearing in my left ear since 2007 when I had my last test. So, I go back to the dr'f office. When he come in, he goies to 'spouting' medical terms that I can't hear because he's on my left side and when I sk what, he says that he'd have to kill me if he told me, but he brings out the tine thingee, and hits it and puts it in different areas and I can barely hear it every where he puts it so now I am on a horse-size antibiotic and a steriod. I feel that the first day that my hearing started gettingbetter but since then, I can't tell a difference. I guess I will have tow ait and see. I do hope it comes back.

And, according to Beka......it is more important for me to scrapbook than it is for me to blog. She says (and you know she knows me pretty well) that if I will journal here and just keep up with my photos, I cna do better. I do know that I can't keep up with both of them, I guess I need a camera that I can download wirelessly (is there such a thing?) but, I am now 2 months behind with my 365 scrapbooking so I'm going to regroup and try it Beka's way and see if I can get caught up. I will at least try to keep you all updated on the blog even if I don't update you with photos....................I'm just a slow person!

And, where did that come from? I use to be so on top of everything. I don't know what's up anymore! Old age I guess.

Totally Unexpected

Last night on the news, it said there was a 20% chance of snow. We commented that it wouldn't happend and the girls that it had to happen. When B and I went to church this morning, it was raining and I saw something coming toward the windshield. As I saw it coming I told her to "LOOK, IT'S SNOWING" as I realized that it wasn't snow that ti was sleet. We so seldom get either that I get the two confused! HA! While we were at church, Mr. T told us that we wouldn't have church tonight due to the weather because we didn't know what would happen and B asks if it is going to snow and if Mr. T knows about the secret. We came home from church, ate lunch, a good stew that I started, added to and then mama added to so I have no clue to the recipe for but B ate 2nds and 3rds of the meat so it had to be good!. I nearly fell asleep so I lay down and took a nap while they all went riding. The phone kept ringing so I got up and called them to find our where they were and as I hung up the phone, the garage door came came up. They had gone to WR and seen snow. About 30 minutes later, A told me to come look that it was snowing. She's always playing games and then saying 'tricked you' but it was snowing.

Man! I went in to action. Get your socks and shoes on. Get longs sleeves on. Get glooves. Where's your coat? Where's you boots? Here, put this on. Even Peanut got in to the action. Are we all ready to go now? And so, here's one of all the pictures we took.

Here's the pile of gloves and head warmers that I bought last year I drug out of the closet for everyone to wear this afternoon!
