The Uneventful Day

I left the house and headed to the endodontist's office.  The whole way there I was hoping I would get into a minor car accident.  Yeah, no such luck, it was smooth sailing the entire way.  In the office I went for my torture.  Funny thing is, my tooth must have know we were going there because it started hurting earlier today.  I got my shots and then let the poking begin.  I sat in that flippin' chair for an hour and a half - bored out of my mind.  On the bright side, when it was over and the Novocaine wore off I wasn't in that much pain.  The good news, I think I am going to be chipmunk cheek free this time. I will let you know tomorrow. After the torture was over and I handed them $278.80 for the fun times I headed back home. 

When I walked in the door I immediately noticed that Sarah was sitting on the couch, watching Noggin and wearing nothing but her undies.  I could have sworn I dressed her this morning! Olivia was playing with Hailey for the last time since today was Hailey's last day here, Emma was watching tv and texting her friends and Abigail was, yeah I don't know where she was. Scott was fussing with the trimmer that never works and I interrupted him and asked him to get the suitcases down from the attack.  The girls' are going to church camp Sunday and need to start getting their stuff packed.  The suitcases are down and the girls' get all excited to start packing.  When low and behold Abigail comes over to where I am sitting and tells me she only has two pair of shorts she can wear to camp.  Just so you know, at church camp all shorts must come down to the knees and they are only allowed to wear one piece swimsuits (this one cracks me up because the don't allow the boys and girls to swim together so whey they have to be completely covered it beyond my comprehension).  Like I said, they leave for camp Sunday.  You couldn't haven't mentioned you had no long shorts and that your one piece swimsuit had gone missing to me sooner!

After dinner Abigail and I got in the car and headed to Kohls.  The anticipation of shopping with her was almost as nerve wracking as driving to my dental appointment.  She is the pickiest child and not only that she loves to shop, buy things and never wear them.  I kid you not this child has items hanging in her closet from the beginning of last school year that still have tags on them. I decided to use a new tactic in shopping with her because I just really didn't feel like getting mad, yelling and risk getting chipmunk cheeks again.  I just followed her around the store and ignored her.  I made no suggestions on anything...I just let her shop and of course stay in our budget.  It turned out not to be as bad as I had anticipated.  Hopefully she will wear these clothes, if not, I have the receipt and I am not afraid to use it!

Home from shopping and not much else going on.  Hopefully tomorrow will be more entertaining! Oh and just wanted to let you all know that today is Cat Steven's birthday!  Happy Birthday Cat!

Sincerely,
The Queen of Insanity
