Ok, I had this big huge post yesterday, went to post it, and Yahoo had a fart and lost it.  I will try to recapture some of it today.  I was just too mad yesterday to try and rewrite it.

This is the tattoo Bill is wanting I think.  He has been talking about getting a half sleeve tribal type of tattoo for quite some time.  He just has a problem with spending the money for it.  Well, I hit a home run this year for an anniversary gift.  I got him a gift certificate for $200 for a tribal sleeve "outline".  I was so proud!  I am horrible at picking out gifts for anyone other than the kids, but this time I really blowed him away.  I gave it to him early just cause I was so proud of what I had been able to come up with.   He was actually surprised for once!

He has been a little fussy since his procedure.  He isnt allowed to run at all.  He isnt allowed to lift anything over 15 pounds, and he is not allowed to have ANY type of strenuous activity.  He not handeling it well.  He "profile" is over Thurday, and I know he is going to be glad.  3 weeks  without being able to do much of anything is enough to make us all crazy!

Brandon had baseball pictures done today.  I cant wait to see how they turned out.  They ended up not having a game today.  They were supposed to have pictures done on Wednesday, but the weather was horrible.  I hated getting him up this morning.  He had a field day at school yesterday and his left knee got burnt up!  We were really lucky though, he got up this morning and his knee wasnt bothering him a bit.  I had put some "nupercaine" on it last night, and might I say, that is the best stuff I have used yet on a sunburn.  A friend at work had told me about using it.  It instantly made him feel better.  I had given him some Tylenol too, and together, he remained "burn" free-an amazing feat due to Brandon's intense sensitivity to EVERYTHING!

Raven has continued asking her S-E-X questions.  She always catches me off guard!  I thought she had asked everything a child possibly could about it, BOY WAS I WRONG!  She found another way to throw me off.  Again I talked to her with honesty, and "matter-of-factness".  She still doesn't "get" why anyone would ever want to do anything so disgusting.  That's my girl!  She keeps this attitude till she is 50 and I will be just fine!

Hey, I am so proud of myself.  I actually was able to negotiate with my employer and get my time off with Brandon paid for!  I am so happy!  I was not looking forward to loosing that money while he was ill.

Camp Courage starts at the beginning of next month.  They have alot of things that Brandon can do, and alot of things that he cannot do.  I am very excited about it this year.  Brandon missed out on alot of stuff last year because of there BS.  I am guessing that this will not be a problem this year.  They have so many trips planned. They are going to the Atlanta Auqarium, a rock ranch (dont ask), the Coca Cola museum, Birmingham Zoo, Stone Mountain, Six Flags, and then to the Auburn water park.   Brandon is going to have a great summer, even though he is going to be kinda limited.  I cant wait!

better go...
