Here is one of 24 pages of the outline for the test I'm taking tomorrow. Yikes. Wish me luck...

You know in about 4 months we are going to forget what the sun even looks like.

Had my little surgery this morning. It was outpatient, didn't take long. Lots of pain, lots of blood. Fun fun. Thanks to all of you for reaching out to help me with Tyler, food, blessings, etc. I appreciate having such great friends. On Thursday I'll know if they have to do a more extensive surgery on it or not because the surgeon said she didn't think she got it all from the outpatient surgery. Percocet is fun at least.

So about a month ago I had a weird twinge of pain on my lower back/tailbone area when I was in the shower. Twice before I've had to get cysts removed from there and let me tell you, I'd rather give birth. So I got all freaked out but then I forgot about it for awhile because it only hurt that one moment. Well last week, the pain started constantly and now I have a big cyst on my lower back. Good times. So I have to have it surgically removed--and still, I'd rather give birth. Seriously. I'm waiting for a call back to hear when I'm going in. Afterward, it takes like 2 weeks to heal and it's not a fun healing process. Especially with a baby and an insurance test to study for. Good times.

Castro Valley Forum Front Page News This Morning

Since CNN, ABC, NBC and CBS refuse to report on this news story, I am going to. You can watch FOX news to get the full story or go to www.BigGovernment.com Acorn is a corrupt organization with ties to our government. They've received millions of tax payer dollars and have been investigated for voter registration fraud among other things. Watch the video if you haven't already seen it. Then ask yourself why no one is reporting this except for Fox news. www.BigGovernment.com

(I've seen a small spider spin silk in the snow) You remember the band Presidents of the United States of America? Well their lead singer made a cool CD call Caspar Babypants that my sister-in-law Kim sent over last weekend. Like Kim, I don't usually enjoy the baby CD's so much, especially after hearing them time and time again. Most of them are a little too sing-songy and the subject matter is usually pretty lame. But alas, Casper Babypants is a CD for all to enjoy. It is the most innovative, creative, unique and fun CD I have ever heard. It's even quite enjoyable musically--he's great on guitar. Anyway, Caspar Babypants as he calls himself (the lead singer of The Presidents) is giving free--yes free--concerts for kids and their parents at our local King County library! Tyler and I are very excited. We would love if anyone wants to come with us. The link for more info is here . We are planning on going to the Federal Way 320th library on Friday, October 9...
