If you’ve ever been in a car with someone driving that would drive in circles rather than stop and ask for directions, then you know how I have been feeling lately.
Through the years, I’ve always thought it beneficial that my husband always insisted on looking at the big picture…he always must make a decision based [...]

Healthcare: Interesting article and UK Wait times in hospitals for cancer treatment
I decided to do a little research today and found an interesting article and also some statistics from the UK government website where you can access their healthcare system statistics. Thought I would share. When viewing the UK government site, notice there is a menu on the right side where you can further check things [...]

Healthcare for Clunkers?
I have to question our government when it passes programs through that are supposed to last for months, only to have them last for 1 week! The program I am talking about is Cash For Clunkers.
The government is further subsidizing the auto industry outside of the auto bailouts so that people can receive credit on [...]

From the Mouths of Doctor’s Babes.
http://www.mothersinmedicine.com/2008/07/guest-post-comment-from-daughter.html
This is a comment on a blog that I read about today. As the wife of a husband who is often working and not available to our family all the time, this was very reassuring. I will make a point to let my husband read it as well.

Whew!

Gosh, I’m sure glad they are both in bed now.
We grocery shopped, we had a fit in the car on the way home, we ate, they napped, we had time out, I made cookies, we had time out, we painted, we had time out, I made dinner, [...]

Mellowing Out
It’s official…I’m getting older.
…and Mellower (is that even a word?)
I don’t stress over things that I used to stress over. I kind of just go along for the ride.
Okay, this is either that I am getting older…or…
I’m finally getting used to my husband’s profession and caving to the fact that I often find myself in [...]

Having the Hubby Around the House
I Love having my husband home!!!! It is wonderful to have a man around the house to cuddle with on the sofa or play Guitar Hero with. I only see him normally between 10-15 hours a week because of his work schedule, but this week he asked for a couple of days off due to [...]

Origin of “National Doctor’s Day”:Doctors’ Day observances date back to March 30, 1933. It was started by Eudora Brown Almond [...]

Sinus Blockage Surgery: 6 weeks post surgery
I wrote so much about my surgery and what led to it in previous weeks and months, that I thought it is only natural to update you all. What can I say? I drain mucous now! (TMI, I know–but it was funny-gross and I thought I would add it in).
I am writing this mainly for [...]

Interesting information on Fruit Flies and Autism…
This blog highlights some information that I was told about today from a friend who actually does research on fruit flies. I thought it was interesting and got online as soon as I could. Sure enough, the fruit flies are being studied in the US at a university and the studies are inconjunction with finding a gene [...]

Yuck! Surgery!!!
I went for another followup appointment with the ENT on my sinus blockages. He has decided that he would like to do surgery…unblock my sinuses by breaking the bone and enlarging the holes (sounds wonderful, huh?!) Actually the bone he will break is about as thick as an egg shell (now it doesn’t sound as [...]

My Sinus Problem Update
Well, It has been two weeks since I last saw my doctor. I went in this morning and found out something I had not realized from last visit: Apparently 5 of my sinuses are completely blocked–not just the previous one that I thought I knew about. Lovely, huh? Anyway, I gave him the update: For [...]

Blood Everywhere…
Baby Boy had his first Big Brother-induced accident today. Let me set up the scene for you:
We are getting out of our van today after school and my hands are full. The boys have run into the garage already and I call out to them to come get their rolling backpacks. I then set them [...]
