I START SCHOOL

I start Phlebotomist school on Aug 1st. I am so excited. I have put a stop to the RN degree it is a long 5 year pain in the a** up here. I will graduate Jan 6, just before my 30th bday!!! So I will be divorced and degreed by the time I am 30. Also took Tryston and Caitlyn to the DR today. Tryston was to see if the spot on his lung was gone. Got a mixed answer on that. I saw it and the DR saw it still there but the Radiologist says he is fine, but I guess he could change his mind and if he does they will call me. So I don't know. But Caitlyn has had a cough for about a month and she had full blown pnemonia, so she is on strong meds and an inhaler now. Like I always say my life is never boring. But I hope you all are having a great summer and getting ready for school. All mine are in school this year. YEAHHHHH!!!

Taylors Bday

Story to come... Ok here it is. Sharon and I decided at 11 O'clock at night to get the items we needed for the cake, so it was a late night and I had to work the next day. Got to bed about 2 AM and got up for work at 6:30 the following day. I won't even get into the day I had at work, lets just say I had to hold a five year old child and drag another all the way from the park. I am really not enjoying my job. So I come home from work to find the neighbor lady standing outside in the rain with YES- 8 young kids. Her smoke alarm was going off. I asked her what was wrong and she said there is a wire problem and she is waiting for housing to get there to fix it. I thought nothing off it and very unchristian of me left her and all 8 kids in the rain. All of a sudden 2 fire trucks, 2 cop cars, and an ambulance pulls in. So I thought it best to get the kids out of their way so we invited them into our house and then fed them all. Mind you they were all 3 and younger, except 1. The head of housing lady came over and was like when there is a fire we need these kids out of the way of the workers and it was very stupid of you to bring the kids in to a another unit of this building we are trying to evacuate it. I was like "WHAT FIRE". She pointed straight at me and said YOU should have called 911. I said for bad wiring???? Needless to say the neighbor is illegally watching 5 kids, the 12 yr old started her kitchen on fire by throwing water on hot grease. She didn't call 911 and let 7 toddlers and infants wait in the rain cause she didn't want ppl in her house cause her house was beyond filthy. So I got in trouble for not calling 911 and evacuating for a fire I didn't know about, she got in deep trouble has to pay for the fire and had social services in her house. I thought dam woman next time you decide to burn your house down clean it first. So I had called into work and then had to get going on the cakes, finally got the all made at like 1 AM and then I turned the oven off and noticed that the bottom element of my oven had broke in half. HOW DOES THA THAPPEN? So I had to go to Jessica's to make Hunter's cakes. I got the cake put together and ready for the fondant and went to go get them and THEY WERE HALF GONE. The damn dog ate half of the flowers and dots. It turned out but damn I spent a lot of time on those doggy treats. It was a happy ending though, the cake got done and delivered. But I would like to know why nothing I do can go smooth. I think I thrive on chaois.

4th of July in Anchorage

The kids in the caboooos!!!
The original Alaska Railroad train that is now set up in a park for kids to play on. Our 2 dogs, the Siberian Husky got shaved, and the black and white Husky is gonna have a baby this month. YEAH!!! It will be a Husky Malamute mix and it will be MY puppy!! The parade was lame and there we only 2 floats, but I thought this one was pretty neat.

Then we saw the Star Wars guys and the kids went crazy, so we took a picture with them. We went to Carnival but it was to crowded and crazy so we went to Chucky Cheese instead. They had more fun there anyways. Chucky Cheese kept randomly swinging his arm when we were taking pictures and knocking Carlyn in the head. It was funny.

SICK FROM POOOOO!!!!!!!

Ok we all got to read about Sarah's fun adventure with pooo flooding!!!! Well here is part 2....... On Wednesday, Tryston got home from summer school and took a nap, which is common for him(school stresses him out). When he woke up he came hunched over holding his chest on the left side. He said it hurts to breathe and he feels like his heart is being stabbed. I looked him over and his left peck was significantly swollen. Well I don't mess around with him, he is my child of many issues and health problems. I took him to the ER, didn't want to wait till morning. Got to the ER he was fine, just had a pain in the outer part of his left peck, NO other symptoms, no fever, cold, sniffle, cough, ache, headache, nothing. I started to feel foolish for wasting my time, thought maybe he had a rib head out, or pulled a muscle, or slept wrong. They checked his temp, O2, heart rate, set him on the heart machine, little physical test, everything was fine, he seemed perfectly fine, but that darn spot in his chest. They did a chest Xray and I was waiting for the DR to come in and tell me him is fine....instead she came in with a weird look on her face and said they had found a spot on his lung, in the exact spot on the outer part of his peck that hurts. I about cried cause why would a child have this. They Dr sent him home Rx w/3 antibiotics and called it pneumonia. I asked the tech if it is normal that a 7 year old walks in with NO symptoms other then pain on the side of his chest and have pneumonia....she said it is very rare. I got scared and worried of whatelse it could be so I got Tryston and researched my butt off...online of course. Well I think she was right. There is a difference between viral and bacterial pneumonia, viral you are sick, cough, fever, boogies, all that. Bacterial is when you have inhaled a bacteria and your immune system-sinuses-body in general can not properly expose of the bacteria, and may not have any symptoms. LIKE IN TRYSTON'S CASE----- breathed in POOOOO particles and your body can't push it back out your lung, so it sticks to your lung like silly putty and causes an infection!!!!!! So anyways now we know he had poop infection in his lungs due to the wild family that lived here before we did. SO now I was frustrated with that family until I saw in the paper that the family that got evicted from our house and moved to Eagle River, with 5 kids of their own and 3 foster kids, ALL TEENAGERS!!! They are terrible(I am not being mean I am being honest) But the night that our house backed up with poop, their house in ER burned to the ground. I almost started to feel sorry for them until I found out it was due to the teenagers(like 13 and 14) were smoking in the basement (they were never watched) well they caught the couch on fire. They had no renters insurance. I am sorry but she took on 3 foster kids that she didn't take off, she just wanted the income it is almost a grand a month per kid in AK. If I didn't respond to Tryston, he could have ended up much more serious. Not to sound harsh about the other family but DAH you leave that many kids unattended all the time bad things will happen. They wander Ft Rich all day everyday, and they have stopped my kids many times to tell them that they used to live here and they used to poop and pee all over the floor(which I found out from housing it is true). SO come on why do these types of family get to care for other people's children when they can't even care for the one's they have. Saddens me. But Tryston is on meds and doing much better. He gets a redo XRAY in 3 weeks. Keep you updated.
