Red Wedding Dress

I had a conversation with Austin today that went something like this:

Austin: I love you and you are the best woman in the whole wide world
Me: Thank you, what do you love about me
Austin: well, I love that you buy me (blah, blah, blah)
Me: or because I take care of you and give you what you need and hugs and kisses
Austin: that too, and because you wear beautiful clothes
Me: I wish I could fit into some of my beautiful clothes
Austin: like a dress
Me: I don't think I have any dresses anymore
Austin: Patty wore a red dress to her wedding

That is all I needed to hear. What kind of slut wears a red wedding dress? And, by the way, I saw her very pregnant belly today (but she's not pregnant, so we have to keep the secret;)).

Hypothyroidism

I just found out that I have hypothyrodism. It shouldn't be suprizing to hear since my mom and sister both have it, but never the less, I have to take yet another medicine. Boy, I am really feeling old and sickly lately.

testing kids

Every once in a while I get a child who reminds me why I do this job. Today I tested a girl who was having a very hard time on the IQ test. Anyway, she made me laugh when I asked her to repeat a series of numbers and she replied, "I can't, it just keeps falling out of my head". This poor little thing was a treat to work with, she was so humerous.

David's getting married

David called yesterday and said he was getting married to his long-term "bedroom buddy". The wedding will take place at the courthouse next Friday. Is there reason for a shotgun wedding? I think so. Only time will tell.

home show

Mom, dad, Austin and I went to the homeshow on Thursday night. I wasn't sure what to expect from Austin because I know he loves infomercials but he hates going to stores. We got there and he LOVED it. It wanted to stop and watch all of the people do their exhibits and watch the shows that were going on. He was so well behaved. When we left, he said "that was the best store ever, they have everything". I, spent too much money, but hopefully, my purchases were good investments.

Austin's nose

On Wednesday afternoon I got a voice mail from the secretary at the school saying that it was 3:00 and no one had picked Austin up. Guess what irresponsible father forgot him again. I returned the call and she said that David was on his way, but also that Austin had a fall on the playground (not suprising as my boy is a bit clumsy). She said he had scraped his nose and I of course thought, "no big deal". When I saw him, it looked worse than I thought it would. Austin said it was bleeding on the inside of his nose to. But, my brave boy trooped on and it didn't even seem to phase him.

Hives

Due to my low back pain, I took some anti-inflamatory medication. Within a few days, hives began to appear everywhere. This is my first experience with hives and I'm not sure that I like them much. They interrupted my interview with Troy.
