Dot 2006-Feb 10 2007


Autumn came into our room sat morning at around 8:30 or 9 and thought Kelsea's hamster had died. Lee Joe went up to check on it and it was still alive, just barely. Kelsea held it and then Lee Joe tried to help it with sugar water but he only was able to watch it breathe it's last breathe as Kelsea looked on. She is sad and somewhat relieved at the same time because she was about ready to find it a new home but she has a tender heart. So we are one less in our zoo without a plan to replace our recently deceased pet. Only Amber now thinks she is entitled to a lizard or reptile of some sort. No thank you.
The week WAS busy. 2 concerts, 3 children in dance, Drivers Ed, Basketball-Kelsea's team won both their games. She played more the 2nd game and got much more aggressive than the first, enough to get 2 fouls called on her and a rebound or two and missed shot-the whole team was missing shots the whole game though. The birthday party, Amber is so far a happy 16 year old. She got a car-haha-a sirt and pants, slippers and flip flops, a watch, a boise state shirt from Melissa, a fountain from my mom, a pop tart pillow and a stuffed bear with ear phones that plays her ipod, ear ring holder, a computer game. Hannah got shots on Thursday. How sad. And I worked a half day at the school on Friday. So my house is out of control. Amber had 2 games to play pep band for this weekend but it is officially over now! WOO HOO.
Saturday was sad all the way around. Amber woke up very late for drivers ed. They came by and picked her up. The hamster died, Kylee's birthday party was postponed because the birthday girl got the flu. Which was just as well because a few hours later Kylee was down for the count. Lee Joe threw a fit and upset all the girls. Kelsea went to a BSU women's basketball game and was pestered most of the game by a friend and then I didn't see her when I went to pick her up and she ran after the van. I stopped at the stop sign and she was in tears when she finally got me. It rained and rained Sat night and again today. Kelsea won't have much to do with her dad right now because of Saturday afternoon.
That flu that is going around, it is nasty and circulating worse than chicken pox. I got 2 calls from the playground duties because their kids were sick. I was able to work for one of them. Kailyn had it on Thursday night-Friday. Kylee's friend got it Sat. And another 2 girls we know from school also got it Friday. They thought it was food poisoning-it is the same nasty flu. I don't know what is ailing Kylee but her lower abdomen hurts and she is dizzy. I am waiting for my next kid to come down with the flu Kelsea had. It will probably happen on Weds when I am suppose to be doing the Valentines party at the school. Leland and Randa are in town but they are getting sick too so we haven't seen them much at all.
