Went to the Dr today and got the ok to let life get back to normal for me. I am under no restictions now YiPPIE!!!! Have to have some blood work done and the normal mammogram and bone scan, also need that dreaded colonscopy this time but all in all after all I have been through lately I am healthy again. They will keep an eye on me for diabetes which is a side effect of having pancreatitis that can happen but not going to worry about that so far all is good and no signs of it so far.


We have Evan here now for the summer so I am going to go join him and grandpa in the pool!!

I often called part of my parenting skills "The FIne Art of Distraction" LOL


I was lucky..my kids were good....mostly agreeable..not prone to tantrums, etc


and we always had a lot of fun, lots of good, creative quality activities


right now I am remembering dd and a friend coming over for "art lessons": sketching.


and dd and ds making a "chicken elevator" out of an old baby swing on the tower of their swing set..LOL


here's an idea for dgs..go to www.nickjr.com


lots of activites for kids right online..plus things you can print out, for all age levels


dgd,2, sat on my lap for half an hour with the laptop as we "explored Dora's house"..all the rooms, differnt activities...


perhaps dgs has a favorite character/show on nickjr


wel dgs will distract you and ,in turn, you can distract him..LOL

HI Dutch


Evan does like the computer and he does play some games on it. We are going to get him signed up today for Diving lessons. He will really like that. Jim is going to take him to get signed up today.


Thanks for the suggestions.


Love ya
