So, my fever is gone and my sore throat has mostly gone away (*knock* on wood) but my teeth and gums still hurt. Which I suppose I can survive...well at least function. I'm trying to figure out how I'm gonna get my teeth fixed so that I can start eating again, but I don't have insurance and can't afford it. I know, I know...bad planning...or lack there of. I did find a clinic that can do it...for cheaper than a regular dentist office...but I can't get in until Friday Sept. 7...which seems like forever when my mouth hurts this bad and I can't eat real food. Not to mention that would just be a "check-up" appointment that is required by the clinic, then I will have to make another appointment to fix whatever is wrong with me...hopefully without too long of a wait. I'm not sure I can make it, but I also don't think I have any other choice.

The only thing worse than going to the dentist, is going to a dental clinic! Be sure to whine and complain about your pain...rate it on a scale of 1-10 - they love that! And be sure to tell them you can't eat solids and have lost 5 lbs! (Even if that isn't true, throw it in there for the earlier appointment time...)

Caught Bare Bottomed.

Yesterday I went to retrieve my kids from playing in the backyard with the neighbors....When I round the corner I behold my 5 year old daughter with her shorts baring her bottom to the 6 year old neighbor boy. Me:  M!  E!  It is time to go home. now! M:  E did it too! (while sheepishly pulling her shorts back up and E snaps his head around to look at me with big eyes and "O" mouth) WHY?

Chicken Adventure Begins

Our first step towards the 'homestead' lifestyle: CHICKENS.  J and I have been researching, reading books & articles, and saving a TON of info to our Pinterest board.  I know we are in for some surprises and troubles, but we are doing our best to head them off and avoid other peoples mistakes. (J is still trying to convince me that we need to start pigs this year.  I keep reminding him that is one of the PRIMARY mistakes other homesteaders have made: being too eager and getting in too deep, too fast). So, we start our garden and chickens this year - keeping our fingers crossed that we aren't putting them in poor locations.  The chickens are the first thing branching out into our additional 2 acres.  The coop and kennel are going at the outside, back corner of our fenced in yard.  Our coop is valiantly being made from old cabinets we picked up at the local Habitat for Humanity, Re-Store.  We intend to paint, add roof, prop up on legs, and insert s...

Coming Full Circle - Idaho

Life has run us around a bit, and we have enjoyed the journey.  As Facebook rather took over our lives in regards to blogging, I did not maintain my blog.  I find, however, that I enjoy coming back and reading my blog more than I like perusing old facebook posts.  So I begin again with blogging; for myself more than anything. We have managed, since my last post in 2012, to return home to Idaho.   We spent 5 great years in Colorado!  The kids grew up with the neighbors; McKenzie had horse riding lessons from a young lady named Carrie, in Longmont; she started playing flute in 2nd grade, and in 4th she switched to playing trumpet; Ethan started playing soccer, and Minecraft (video gamer in the making).  We got McKenzie a cat named Diamonds. We got a puppy who we named Ryder.  We got new appliances in the kitchen that I love (double oven, fridge with freezer drawer, etc)!  I mention them, because I am sad to have left them in Colorado.  W...
