five things i can do to waste time in my new office building
1. look out the front window (at the people walking along jones street)
2. look out the back window (at the people walking in and out of the church)
3. look down the entryway (at people walking in and out of the building)
4. mosey around and look busy (much easier to do here)
5. print to a far away printer and go find it (sorta like i spy for printers).
i live a cat's life. except i get paid to do it. (i really do work. i got a lot done this week - even if i DID do all of the above things!)

ok, so really it is thankful thursday, but since i'm doing thankfuls already, i'm gonna switch and do a "top ten thursday" since i can think of 10 things i hope for about tomorrow.
top ten things i hope will happen to kendal after he gets his new glasses tomorrow
1. obviously, i hope he will be able to see up close!
2. he won't stand so dang close to the TV.
3. he will be able to read without holding books close.
4. he won't furrow his brow (which will lead to early wrinkles on his forehead).
5. he will be able to see how beautiful his family is.
6. he won't be afraid of what his family looks like! (maybe i should fix my hair tomorrow!?!)
7. he will like love his new glasses.
8. he will want to write.
9. he will not get tired and grumpy (i.e. tired eyes).
10. he will be a happy new boy getting to see the world up close to him!

November 3 thankful for...
today, i'm VERY thankful for a friend (who is also a mother) that privately shared a very VERY personal story with me last night to help me feel better and not alone.
thank you, you know who you are. you have no idea how much it meant to me!

November 2 thankful for...
today i'm thankful for friends and family who let us go trick or treating at their house a day late. it was raining here on halloween so we couldn't go - not only were the kids sorta sick, they are also just too small for cold+wet. so, we had a few friends and family who let us come to their house. it was awesome, and just the right amount of tricking and treating. :)
thanks to the hinkles, the bradleys, and to mamaw and granddaddy! you really made nov-o-ween special for the cutest mermaid and robot in town!

what i want wednesday
what i want today - healthy eyes for kendal
kendal is such a special child. he has never had a regular doctor and i don't know why i thought this would have been any different. thus far in his short four years, he's had an orthopedist (for his toes), a neurologist, a radiologist, a urologist, another orthopedist (for his ankles and knees), two orthotist, at least three physical therapists, and now a ophthalmologist.
last week, we took kendal to the eye doctor and he was immediately referred to a specialist, we didn't even finish the exam, the doctor said it wasn't worth it because with his vision, there was "nothing they could do for him in that office" - i thought about how maybe there was a reason that i grew up with a best friend with bad vision.
he tested really bad at that regular eye doctor so today we go to this one for more tests - the kid may have horrible vision! or, supposedly he could have been "tricking" the machines (which is unlikely he could be tricking it that much - his prescription could possibly be as bad as a +8 in both eyes!!!!) I pray that he was tricking that machine. kendal's specialist appointment is today. his eyes will be dilated today.
at least he doesn't have allergies (we saved that one for holly).
