This and That...

I will start by answering the questions I left you with. The melted figure that to me now looks like a cows face..HA...used to be a red car!!! The "eyes" were the wheels and so forth. One of the little kids put it under the oven and now we have this...imagine the smell!!

Onto my doctor appointment..UGH.. well it was confirmed that there is something indeed wrong with my wrist and I should have gone in much earlier. He did a repeat x-ray and found that the small arm bone the Ulna that is attached to the tendons and muscles is pulled away and everything is then being stretched is the best way to put it!! I have been causeing more damage by trying to use it and bowling with it,and that explains the continued pain!! So Iam back in a brace splint to keep the wrist from moving at all and I am not to lift anything at all if possible with it!! In 3 weeks I go back for another x-ray and hopefully it shows some signs of healing or I get a cast!!! If it starts to heal this way it will be 6-8 weeks, and if not then we cast and go from there!!! WOW I didn't expect that much was wrong but now I know and can fix it and stop doing more harm! The thing that makes me mad is the Radiologist and Doctor from the first day should have seen that, I got to see both x-rays and it was there then just not as prominent! It is so hard to run my house and do daycare with one arm, and bowling is done probably for the year, that really bothers me and now I probably won't be going to Nationals. My arm is more important though so I will concentrate on healing that!!

Next have you seen these yep I'm sure you have or at least heard of them?!! Well Brit has wanted one for some time now and on January 20,2008 I bought him one! I am not one to buy gaming systems at that cost because I just don't understand how it is worth $400, maybe it's a women thing! But to make him happy and show my appreciation I obliged. Well on the night of the 21st we watched a movie in it and when it got done it wouldn't eject the disc! So he followed all the directions from the manual to get it out and still NO! Tuesday night he called Customer Service and they were surprised and said "oh that sucks" um yep sure does. But since it comes with warranty it is going to be replaced!!! Thank goodness for the good old warranty!!

Two Questions????

I got two questions....What was this, at one time?? What does it look like now????

Not Much Going On....

I don't have much news to report here on the Boedecker homefront. We enjoyed some nice waeather this weekend and got the van cleaned out, it is crazy how much gets tracked in there! The kids did bowling as usual, Jordon got a new bowling ball of his own and was extatic to use it for the first time. I was just gonna take a pic to post of it but he has it hidden somewhere so I'll have to locate it first, you wouldn't think he could hide a bowling ball that well but it is Jordon!

Not much planned for the early part of the week, I am going to the doctor tomorrow for a sinus infection that has overstayed its welcome and it is time to have the wrist rechecked as it is still not healed and quite troublesome!

And since there isn't much to do I do think I will go

join these guys...aren't they cute!!!!

It is a pretty dark picture but the top cat is Doboy (Julia's cat of 6 1/2 years and the dark one is mine and he is 8months old, Whiskars)

The "New Kerrie"

Janaya got her hair cut for the first time in a Salon on Friday afternoon by "new Kerrie"! She is called that because Janaya is under the impression that there is only "one" person with a name, for instance there are no other "barbs" or "jills" etc... so when she met Kerrie it was confusing because she already knows a Kari thus giving us "new Kerrie" HA! HA! She loves her new hair and "new Kerrie" too, did you know she has toys in the back, well she does and Janaya will never forget her trip to the Salon. I believe we'll be going before we know it! I was running late so I forgot to take the camera with me but got a shot of the after, if you want to see a before the pic on the blog of her is a good one!

Mommy also got her hair cut and loves it! I think next time I will do some more coloring hopefully before I go to Detroit for bowling in May. We don't have many plans this weekend due to the cold weather! Have a good weekend...stay warm!

Transistion...and More...

I can't believe I haven't posted on my blog in a week. I feel like I have kind of forgotten about it in my "life transition" that I am going through. I have been going through many changes lately or as my dad said "getting wiser"! So much has been going on as far as relationships with friends and some family some being good and some bad, but in healing in each ones way!

We have been working hard on being better people and parents, and getting more involved in our church. The kids are really enjoying Sunday school and learning alot every week. I am getting in the groove of teaching and we got a good schedule down now. We have been attending church every week and not just going to Sunday school which was important to us for the kids!!

I have been evaluating myself as a person, mother and friend alot lately and excluding the negatives in my life which has made me feel so much better and I feel so much more energized now. Today is day 29 of no smoking, tomorrow is my month mark!!! YAY!! I feel like it has been so much longer and I am noticing things all the time that are getting better! Brit is going just as strong and feels just as great!! I thank everyone friends and family for the support and positive feedback as we have taken this step of control!!

We celebrated my niece Natylie's 3rd b-day on Friday and I got to use the video camera now that the memory card got here. I am so glad I got this and look forward to many more memory capturing moments!! Julia and Jordon started bowling again for the 2nd half of the year on Saturday, Jackson got to spend the day with Grandma and Papa ice fishing!!

Yesterday I had my surgery under my arm for that cyst. I ended up with a 3 inch incision and 7 stitches. It was bigger then i had anticipated but it is gone now and hopefully won't come back. Brit stayed home again today to help with daycare and take care of me, I am so blessed to have such a wonderful helpful man!! Thank you Brit!!!

Well that is all I can think of right now I will try to keep up better now that things seem to be on track for me! Oh Friday afternoon Janaya and I are getting haircuts by Kerrie, super excited girls we are!! Have a good rest of the week!!

We also had a few collisions this time one Janaya and a tree...OOPS, then Janaya took Jackson out which you see in one of the videos! They still had a great time...HA!
