Dyk I'm jealous of your garden!!!

Dyk we want to do a garden again this year. Last year's wasn't very successful.

Dyk but we can't plant anything yet anyway because our weather has been CRAZY.

Dyk it snowed three times this week (nothing stuck, but still...). And hailed today. And rained forever and ever. Today we had a high of 39.

Dyk this is by far the strangest weather I've ever seen here. I don't think it's ever snowed in march before.

Dyk I'm ready for summer and some SUN!

dyk Abigail rode the tube but was nervous about it rather than being fearless and dangerous like last year

dyk she told my mom after she couldn't get back on a second time, "I tried to beat my medicine but I can't"

dyk I struck up a conversation with her about it two different times and it seems she's experiencing fear and hesitation -- CAUTION

dyk PRaise God!

dyk that kid hasn't had a sense of self preservation since the day she was born!!!!!!

dyk she's also incredibly irritated

dyk and Sean is agitated

dyk and medicaly, those two things are significantly different

dyk Abigail knows (on a small level) that her medicine is changing her moods --- she thinks they are creating fear and hesitation (not her words) but really, those are normal, HUMAN -- non-manic emotions that SHOULD arise when you get on a tube, being pulled FAST by a single rope behind a BOAT in a bayou!!!

dyk I LOVE tubing but won't tube in the bayou b/c it's just too narrow for me -- I worry about being tossed up on the bank
