I've been so busy this week it's unbelievable.Having the kids home really takes up my time.Of course hub didn't work Monday,which was also my birthday.Then I've been trying to catch up on what didn't get done over the busy holiday weekend.I have also still been trying to get things back that I lost when my husband downloaded a virus through one of his paid email sites a few weeks ago.Well unbelievably,we got another one Wednesday night.Even with the antivirus, antispyware,and firewall programs installed,the virus still got in.I was able to save a lot of things this time that I wasn't before,because at least our whole system didn't crash right away.I am about to give up using the computer.So today I had to save what I could that I didn't have time to last night,and then restore the computer and start to get things set up how we had them again.I'm running the Norton that came with our computer.Somehow we are still able to use the free 90 days. Tomorrow is my shopping day.Saturday morning me,my youngest daughter Sara,my mom,and one of my nephews are heading to St. Louis for a night.We are going to my dad's brother's house to stay with him,his wife,and my dad's mom,who lives with them. This will be my 3rd time there.My husband,the kids and I took my dad there for the day the end of February,right before we found out he had cancer.Then my husband,the kids and I went for two nights over Memorial Day weekend shortly after my dad died.This will be my mom's first time at their place in St. Louis.They've only lived there a few years.It's a 3 and a half hour drive straight through.I know with two young kids we'll be stopping at least once though.My husband and son are staying home.My oldest daughter,who lives with my mom,was supposed to come,but she got a new babysitting job for Saturday night and thought that was more important.Well my husband's off work Monday,so hopefully Tuesday I will finally be able to properly catch up with all of you.I've been trying to read your sites but don't always have time to comment.I hope all of you are doing well,and know that I am thinking of you.Happy New Year.

I'm going to try and catch up with everyone after I post this.I slept all Monday morning.Then of course I had to do what didn't get done while I was sleeping.I'm still feeling poopy but not as bad.I almost cancelled my appointment Tuesday morning at the entodontist.I had wanted to get my husband in to an eye place up where the entodontist is while we were in that area,but their schedule didn't work with ours.I guess he'll just have to go somewhere local or we'll have to make another trip up there.I wanted to go to Vision 4 Less,because they have a great deal on no line bifocals,which is what he needs.Anyway,I sat for about 40 minutes before the doctor came in and started poking around in my mouth.She said that my lower left molar needs a root canal now.I knew that was going to happen.They don't want to admit that they did a root canal on a tooth that didn't need it.From what I can gather,it's difficult for them to determine if a tooth needs a root canal or not.In my mind,the fact that my pain is the same as before and in the same area,I believe that the back molar was the problem in the first place and the other one didn't need a root canal.Plus,the entodontist told me that there's a nerve in the very back associated with the last molar,and if there's a problem with that last tooth,that nerve sends pain and sensitivity down through the next few teeth.Well I was thinking, that would explain why I felt pain in such a large area before,but now that the tooth right next to that molar has no nerve,there's nowhere for the pain from the last molar to go,so that's why it's been so intense since my root canal.I am not even going to discuss this with them,because I don't feel they will admit their wrongdoing.I am not paying them the other $600 that's for sure. They already got $150 of my money.The insurance company sent us the check for $525 toward the $600 still owed.I am keeping it though.I feel I am justified.I still have to talk to my regular dentist.I had talked to one of the ladies there about the situation.She told me to go back up there and see what they say,and that if they wouldn't take care of the problem without charging me more,to let them know and they'd take care of it.So I am curious as to what their opinion will be about this.I'm just so aggravated because of the money that's been spent and I'm still in pain.I still have to pay around $100 to get a crown put on the tooth that the root canal was done on.I've been taking 600 to 800 milligrams of pain medicine every four hours for about two weeks now.I don't know if I'll have to go through another root canal or not.If I do that's fine.I don't mind the pain as much as I mind being swindled.I've heard from other people that they've been told they needed a root canal,and after it's done,the pain is still there,like in my situation.Then they get told that another tooth needs a root canal,and so on.I'm not going to be taken like that.

Well on some lighter notes...we've had some Asian deer coming near our house and yard lately.I had gotten some great photos of them before our computer virus,so I lost the pictures because I'd already downloaded them.I did get a few new ones,but not as good as the other ones.On our way back home from where we went for my tooth Tuesday I saw two bucks out in a field.They looked so majestic,and you could see their breath in the air.I almost turned around and went back to get some pictures,but they were quite a ways from the road and there was nowhere to safely pull off the road.

Last night my kids had their Christmas program for school.I got a few pictures.Steven did these weird looking chimes.He did really well.It was the first time I've ever taken two of my kids at once.We had to be there at six,and it got over at eight thirty.It was so hot in the gymnasium.I guess that should have been welcomed as cold as it's been.Today it got around thirty.The next two days I think it's going to be in the fourties.

Hub and I went grocery shopping today.I've been busy doing laundry and other things around the house.The kids got out early today for their vacation.

Tomorrow we are going to put the Christmas tree up.I don't put it up for long because of our cats.They make a mess of it.I still have to finish wrapping presents.I got a few done yesterday,but still have a lot to do.

Well I'll try to get on here on Christmas Eve day.I'll post some photos of the deer and the kid's Christmas program next week.

Hello everyone.Sorry I haven't been around lately.I've been trying to get things back that I lost on the computer.I ended up returning the Defender Pro program.It was very complicated and wasn't removing all infected files.It was also freezing programs up.I downloaded some programs through our internet company and they are working pretty good,and they were free.

I went to help out with the animal rescue's dog wash Saturday. We were also doing pet photos with Santa during and after the dog wash.I didn't get there until about fourty minutes before the dog wash time was up.I washed one dog.They didn't need any help with the photos,so I did laundry,cleaned up a bit,and played with this sweet puppy that is up for adoption.I was there for almost three hours.

Today (Sunday) we went to see the Narnia movie.We took our son Steven.It was a wonderful movie.It brought back memories of how I felt when I first read that book as a child.I cried a few times during the movie.I can't wait for the next one in the series.

I am coming down with a cold.My throat is really bothering me.I can feel my nose starting to bother me too.It is still so very cold here.

My husband's on vacation this week,so I don't know how much I'll be around.I will try my best to come by and say hello and to post once or twice.Take care.
