posting this because it bugged me and I don't want to argue with a perfect stranger.
about ear infections, I told someone about my experience with taking kelle to the chiropractors. this person had posted on facebook that their child was getting them. one of her other friends who I do not know actually said in response to my comment."Chiropractic only gets rid of the symptoms." not true, thats what tylenol does. and "there is something structurally wrong, and chiropractic manipulation will not change that." Also NOT true. this is my blog and I can say what i want. I don't want an argument. so if you disagree, I am just going to say you can keep your comments to yourself. but How do antibiotics or tubes fix the structure in your ear drum but chiropractic manipulation does not? that makes NO sence. popping the ear with chiropractic manipulation, creates space in the inner ear so it can drain itself, and clean out what ever may be in there.
having said that. I really don't care if you chose to get tubes for your kid. great! do what ever you feel is best for your child. I just like to let people know there are other options out there. I guess I am in a defensive mood.
I want to attempt to share my experiences of a rather unconventional childhood, because people are always very curious and ask. I also want to share my thoughts about life and my experiences processing it. It is very important to me to protect the privacy of others. If I say something that you feel is private about you or someone else, please send me a message and I will delete it. But This is my attempt to paint you a picture, I hope you enjoy the view.

my quirks
Sometimes I don't want to communicate. sometimes, i just want to be left alone because I want to be. Sometimes I withdraw and pull back. sometimes I only want to talk to or see pepole on my terms. And some times I am so tired of being needed i shirk all responsibility and be selfish. and oh wow, I just realized something from that last sentance, as I was typing it. too personal to share. but weird how that happend.

one song....
there is one song I cannot listen to without tearing up. it is most beautiful. Dixie chicks, God speed, (sweet dreams). Almost a luliby, but so tragic at the same time. so much emotion in the lyrics. I suggest you look it up, and give it a listen.

January happenings of the Halls
a post because I really want to play dr mario but I don't have it on my machine and devin is using his. So I guess I will write aboutthe things I have been meaning to write about.
A funny story about the girls....
We were at grandmas (donna). Lily, Mikelle and I, were leaving. We walk out the door and the girls take off down the steet side by side instead of going to the car. Four doors down one of thier cusins and three or four other kids (tongan boys) were playing outside. that is where they were headed. So when i catch up this is what I hear. lily "hey you guys stop that!" in her most commanding voice with both hands on her hips, with every bit of attitude you can picture. then Mikelle "yeah, stop that!" or something like that, ready to back up her big sis if any body decides to get crazy! so i say "hey lily what are you talking about whats going on?". and the oldest boy says "yeah what are you talking about?". she just looks right at him and says "I don't know." mind you she ran up to them, and said all this without any provocation. they had not said a word to either of my girls. so when she said she did not know the boys all started laughing. So did I. I know, my kids about to get her butt kicked by a bunch of poly kids and I am laughing. befor you judge me, picture it and you wwould laugh too. these kids are big for their age, my girls are small for their age and they run up to them and start causing trouble. so when they laughed she says "oh yeah, you want me to show you something funny?", and Kelle says "you want to see funny?' they then turn around and Run home. oh my gosh I laughed my butt off all the way home. The ting is, Lilys a little girl, but she could probobly hold her own against them at least. but it would not suprise me if she kicked some trash. she can be mean. Figures Devin and I would have a fighter. neother of us ever got in a fight with anyone other then our siblings. I wish you all could have seen it. I am still laughing.
I am 17 weeks. have felt the baby move a few times. I deffinetly have a baby belly but I am happy to report that as of my appointment last week I have not gained any weight. now thats not my doing. thats just because i had more then enough to feed a growing baby, when I started. so I mught not gain 60 lbs. that sounds nice, but I still don't think I will gain no weight. I would bet like 20-30. witch is normal. the Dr said if i keep eating healthy and gettign exersize, I could gain 0-15 and still be great. so we shall see. I am not craving chocolate. infact i don;t want it. I want fresh tomatoes and other out of season freash goodness.
Devin did not take the job he interviewd for even though in many ways it seemed perfect. but after really thinking and praying alot about it, he just felt like it was not the right carreer move for him. did not know why. but could not deny the feeling. that was over a weekend that he was really thinking about it and praying, and decided to follow his feeling. when he went back to work the next week it was confirmed to him he made the right choice and that he needed the interview to see that he is not stuck where he's at and is happy. I am SO glad he followed his feeling. I need to trust him more often. If he had done what I said he would have taken it and made the wrong move. So proud of you Devin!
well thats all. now you know whats been goin on over here.

the reasons I wish i was rich....
I want someone else to plan shop and cook healthy meals for me. and the endless resources to pay for good fresh foods.
I want someone else to handle my budget, just give me my spending money and I will stay within that. (if I had enough to by nice towels when i wanted new ones, or new sheets that would be rich.
What things can't you bring your self to buy, that would make you feel rich if you did?
