Road Trip to MIL's house

Hey there people – Music Momma is still on FMLA from work, at least for this week. I definitely do not feel ready to go back yet, I still have swiss cheese brain, so my  concentration is shot. I’m pretty sure I shouldn’t be standing on my feet operating tools in a factory setting for 10 hours a day.  I’m going to call the docs at the hospital sometime this week to ask for an extension of 2 more weeks.

We took the kids to the dentist yesterday. Each of the girls has a cavity, DeeDee’s is pretty small on a back molar. Brainiac’s takes up half of one back molar & she may need a root canal. However, Geek Boy has 9 cavities & a wisdom tooth that needs to be pulled. YIKES! I told him no more pop, energy drinks or premade sweet teas and he needs to start brushing & flossing his darn teeth! We take them back next Monday for the fillings.

The AMMP, Brainiac, DeeDee & I are visiting my Mother-in-Law at least until Sunday. Geek Boy is at home, staying with a family friend so he can work. AMMP is renovating his mom’s bathroom, the girls will be swimming in her above ground pool as much as possible & I will hopefully catch up on sleep & computer projects. Depending on how long this bathroom project takes, we could be here for a while. We’re just taking things as they come for now.

Yesterday on the 6 ½ hour trip down here I slept a majority of the time. When we got here around 11 pm, I got the hide-a-bed pulled out, sheets on, took my Tylenol 3 & went to sleep within 30 minutes. Due to those circumstances, when DeeDee woke me up at 5:30 this morning to tell me her air mattress was deflated I was awake. DeeDee is lying in bed with Daddy. Up until a little while ago she was asking every 10 minutes what time it was, I finally answered “Too early to go swimming, go back to sleep!” She finally dozed off. I think we’ll have her make a little bed with the couch cushions tonight so we don’t have that problem again.

Our 16 yr. old nephew (and my only Godchild) will be coming here tonight to help the AMMP with the bathroom project. He’s such a good kid & an awesome helper! I can’t wait to see him, it’s been about 4 months since we’ve seen any of the AMMP’s  family.
