I Need A Break!!!!!!!
Well I am finallyyyyyy able to sit down at my computor..............(sigh)..........I should say what a crazy last couple of days!!!  I had an a very hectic morning today before I was able to get out the door to take Dakota to PreSchool.  Then had to run to the electric company that is two towns away for me.  From there I stopped by a dear friends to help her with her pc that was given her fits.  I ended up being over there alot longer then I had planned (visiting ya know) LOL!  :-) Then I got home, started a wonderful pot of bean and smoked ham soup, had to sac a Tupperware party of orders, sac up some Usborne Book orders, then feed the critters, and come back inside clean up from dinner and do the dishes, chopped up my remaining green peppers and red onions.  I got the cutest "Ball" freezer containers (plastic) with screw top pastel colored lids.  ( I just love "cutesy" things if they are practical.  :-) I ended filling one med. container and two small ones.  I just diced up my green peppers and red onions, mixed them up together and dumped them in.  It is so nice to grab them out of the freezer when I need them for cooking.  I have alos been do some more fine tuning in my kitchen of my kitchen gadgets and such.  Getting rid of the old and worn out, replacing what needs to be replaced and giving away what I dont need.  I got my new Pampered Chef cranberry red rubber spatulas and a stainless steel/silicon whisk last Friday and I just love them!  :-) My old ones were just plum wore out after 12 years!  LOL!  

Yesterday I took Dakota to the Dr. and we were there for almost 2.5 hours between the blood tests and XRAY of his tummy at the hospital (across the street from there).  All I know at this point is that he has diagnosed Dakota with "Cronic Constipation" as well as "Encopresis".  I am waiting on the Chrones Disease, Lead poisoning, and wheat test results.  The XRAY showed his colon is completley filled with P---P!  UUGGHH!  My poor baby.  I have to start him on a regiment of Miralax and Milk of Magnesia two times a day of each.  The Dr said it will take a good 3-4 months to get him good and cleared up.  (sigh)  He also said that once the medicine starts that the pain will increase and get steady until he is cleaned out.  Woohoo...................NOT!!!!  I am just thankful there was no talk of surgery at this time.  :-)  From there I got home in enough time to prepare for my Girl Scout Troop meeting, the girls had a good time and we set some good goals and activity plans.  I got home around 9:00pm and was ready to crash in bed!
