Hi Hodgie! Glad you had a good weekend, details please. We went rock hunting with the kids last night. Dallen has been begging to go for the last week and it was so much fun. We found marble, granite, and obsidien. The obsidien is a glassy shiny black rock, really quite pretty and the kids are super excited about finding that. Sarah also found a crystal rock, completely clear and gorgeous. I love you guys and will be checking back throughout the day so updates please!!

Well, as you know...he missed his initial flight due to "car troubles". Next day he says he's ahead of schedule...said he'd call me from the gate. And he called me 30 minutes before his flight takes off. He was at long term parking, waiting for a shuttle. I knew he stopped for something to eat. I even told Becky that, but he denied it and then called me from the gate saying, "The plane left early"... I said, Planes don't just leave early James. You missed it. You were late. So he got mad at me threw his phone in the airport. I was ready to tell him to just go home. He kept on saying..should I just go home? Should I just go home? I said, no. Just get here. So he took a flight to Utah. I called him about 30 minutes before his connection. He was sleeping and I woke him up. His clock hadn't been set forward an hour..so he would've missed THAT flight had I not called him. Then he finally got here. We went to dinner with Becky and Dale. He bought dinner for us all.. 200 bucks! We drove home. He went straight up to go to bed. We talked for a while, then both fell asleep. Slept most of Sunday, then went and grabbed some Burger King and went to see The Dark Night. That was really good! Went home..he had a claustraphobia attack because me Bell and Petie were all laying by/on him on the couch... flinging me off of it as he ran outside...lol Yeah. I don't know if this one is too much to fix for me. :-( I still love him though

Mindy Bush said...

"Planes just don't leave early James", that cracked me up! You're funny even when you are serious. Glad you had fun, and 200 bucks! Ouch, that's alot of money! I'm making homemade bread right now, mmmmm can't wait for it too be ready. I'm so hungry, we are out of milk, cereal, and bread. So I'll be devouring this bread by the time it's ready!

Hodgie said...

WOW, those are the only staples Mom would have in our house! lol Mindy Lou...You're out of all of them!? I sure love you!

Mindy Bush said...

Yeah, Brig made pancakes, but I hate pancakes in the morning. I'm a grapenuts/cheerios/rice chex for breakfast only type girl.

Hodgie said...

MINDY!! You can use "YOUR MILK" for cereal! :-)

Mindy Bush said...

Oops, I forgot, I do love crepes that's one thing that the "Linning" side has made me love! If you haven't tried them we should make em for you the next time you come down, so blasted yummy!

Mindy Bush said...

GROSS! I am not a milk cow.

Mindy Bush said...

Only Laurie does things like that, cheerios with goofy milk! (tee hee)

Hodgie said...

LOL!! Good one mindgey! Cheerios and goofy milk!

Are we the only 2 here today? Laur is sick of us already?


So, James is on Antibiotics...I give him his 2 pills and a Mt dew... and then I went upstairs. And I hear him making all kinds of racket downstairs. As I walk down there I hear him repeating over and over and over again, "Does this medication have any side effects, does this medication have any side effects does this medication have any side effects, does this medication have any side effects?

:-(

I said no.It's an antibiotic. No side effects...but the repetition sure was nice.. lol

Oh trying to bait me I see. My milk is dry my frind, for the time being. You however I believe are still nursing. HOlly where the heck did you guys go for dinner??? Wow that is expensive. Home made bread Mindy, wow you are so domestic. We had rhodes rolls again, Sunday dinner just like Mom use to make, Potatos gravy corn chicken and brownies. Holly I am so glad you had fun. I hope James is willing to be fixed, I know you love him.
Love you girls,
Laurie

Mindy Bush said...

Holly, I think James is broken. Maybe, pull that "in case of emergency" string on his back and the repetition should stop immediately.

Laurie, goofy will be back!!! Mickey too. Just chant with me, "No more rocks in socks!!!"

Mindy Bush said...

just trying to liven things up and increase the "Ha!" factor! Laurie, I have a quick and good recipe for bread. It takes less time then most homemade bread and is totally worth the time it does take. Here's the link:

No more rocks in socks, instead uneven, and lopsided. I can't seem to win. Yea, sure I will look up that recipe, (not feeling very domestic today, or feeling like anything but curling into the fetal position and whining my way through the day). Sick Sick sick, all the time with the nausea.

Mindy Bush said...

Your Sunday dinner sounds yummy!!

Mindy Bush said...

So sorry to hear you are sick. Wish there was some kind of cure for morning sickness, it's no fun. Did you look into getting the zofran? It works and maybe your prescription insurance would cover the cost? Ask your doctor about it and tell him your worried about the cost. Sometimes Dr. have free samples of that stuff. When's your next appt.?

LSullivan said...

It's good, but not for every stinking week. The family seems to like it though. I wish I could cook like you and Brig. Even if I could, my picky eaters would make it a pain. Love you

Mindy Bush said...

Also, I talked to Laramie about the bleeding. She said that if the blood is dark in color that usually means it's old blood and it's a good thing. Just thought I'd share that tid bit. You weren't having any cramping right?

LSullivan said...

My 1st Official 10 week Dr. Apt. is next monday at 2:30. Luckily my Doctor will take me in to view the hearbeat on the monitor, which is kind of him. I will let you know how it goes. I did purchase some preggie pops which are just little sour suckers without the sticks, they do seem to work to some degree, but I would have to suck on them pretty much constantly to have the desired effect. I also am sooo exhausted. I seem to be able to accomplish one or two things a day and then I lay around an whine.
fun for me.

Hodgie said...

I'm wondering if he was always like this...or it was because he wasn't on his medication. He seems to have a lack of integrity, honesty etc. I don't know what's going to happen to him. He kept on sayin last night, "If something happens to me, know that I love you" I kept on asking what would happen to him? He said he gets down a lot. But he wouldn't do anything to do myself because he's worried how upset I would be.

LSullivan said...

Holly, that sounds pretty scary like he might be suicidal. I sure hope not. He needs you to help him feel like he can straighten things out. I think he is feeling pretty hopeless. Maybe if he sat down and made a plan of action to get himself out of this mess and talked to his bishop or something. He needs to feel like there is a way out, other than desperate measures. I don't know if you can help him with the honesty thing. He has to want to and he has to stop being self destructive. I sure hope you guys can get through this stuff.
Love you

Hodgie said...

I know Wee...it's pretty rough! I'll just keep saying prayers for him and hope for the best. Do you think I should let his sister in on him being down? That way his family might be able to help out? (not that his family is much help) I just hope this visit was enough to do him some good! He is a good guy...just very selfish etc. I probably share too much. I just worry about him.
