my love of waiting rooms...

...is dwindling. i think i have read every magazine from highlights to teen to maternity to new parents to breast cancer to recipes to fashion to news to senior living. (twice). today ashley and i learned how to make a cake with a blue gelatin swimming pool and slide on top-some people have way too much time on their hands.

i jinx'ed myself today when i told carol that i didn't have much to put in the blog. less than an hour later i got my call from the middle school nurse (they have my number on speed dial). ashley was playing basketball (with a boy) and she rolled her ankle-the gym teacher and half her class heard a POP and so off we go to get it checked. after hours in the waiting room of the doctors office and tristan radiology it was established that there were no broken bones (to the doctors surprise) just severely sprained ligaments (?). all i know is that she is in a lot of pain and has it wrapped (in a flex position) and is now on crutches-again.

we got home just in time to send tim off to his speech therapy appt and as soon as he gets home off to one of the two field hockey games we have tonight.

tomorrow i work until 3:30pm and then i will take a little break and then meet tim at 3:40pm for a clinic appt with the oncologist. he is still not feeling great...hopefully they can figure why his stomach is such a mess...it comes and goes.

then the day after i (yes me) have a doctors appt to get refills of my high blood pressure medicine. go figure. it is a wonder i don't drink (more).

so there you have it...a typical day or two in the dewalt household.

thanks for checking in...say a prayer for ashley today. it is hard to play soccer with those crutches and she is definately hurting.

I've always known you guys to be competitive, but this is getting carried away! The idea is to keep the challenges IN the game, not see who gets to the waiting room the most. Ashely should walk around with pads, a helmet, and braces on whatever joints are in use at any given moment. Ok, here's a new game for ya... Let's try to see who can stay healthy and injury free the longest. Ready...Go!
love,

It is fall sports season - full of crashes and bangs- The only break so far was Caseys front tooth- of course a second tooth craked in half- 10 years of patching(and thousands of dollars) until he can get an implant- so tell Ashley to smile it could be worse!
as always you and yours are often in our thoughts and prayers
Love ya,
Cathy & the Clan
