Good. I'm glad to hear it. I almost popped the recovery room nurse in the nose, when Ben had his outpatient procedure last Fall. She was so cranky with a ten year old (who'd been under general anesthesia and was in pain) I couldn't believe it (and I'm a generally cranky person, so I cut the cranky a decent amount of slack).

Cashmere, how'd Olivia do, today?

She didn't sleep very much but was very mellow--sitting in her bouncy seat awake and alert for almost 45 minutes while I took a long, hot bath and got dressed. I think I hit the baby lottery again with a good one.

I thought of you several times today, while toddler wrangling. One went one way, the other went t'other way, both had snotty noses, and were tired and cranky (because they miss their mommy mostly, and only know me a little bit).

I don't know how my babysitter does this on a daily basis--nor how she is so pleasant and perky when I pick O up in the afternoon.

Jessica, I'm glad it went well. I hope his recovery is quick.

I nearly forgot to welcome back vw--glad you're back with us, Bug.

~ma for MG's Mom. Not thinking on babies driving. Nope. Not going there.

Just popping in to say Welcome Back, Bug! Glad to see you. Also, conrgats to k-Bug, and lots of ~ma to MG's mom, Jessica's E, and everyone else who needs it.

Also, I let Ellie play with her tube of Lotrimin all the time. Luckily

Owen's nearly chewed through tubes of Neosporin, Desitin, Budreaux's Butt Paste and various tubes of Mary Kay hand lotion.

He's teething on his back molars right now so when he's zoning out on the tv, he sticks ALL of his fingers in his mouth as far back as he can and chews and drools. I'll be glad when those damn things are finally in.

oops, I forgot to finish my post.

ION, we had some people look at our house today - first ones after a month of being on the market. I have kept the house so clean, until this weekend. Sure enough, they were driving by, started talking to Joe as he pulled up, and then we had to show it. Total mess inside. I'm hoping they liked it enough to come see it when it's clean.

---

vw, so glad to see back at home. I hope that DigiTrace thing helps pin down the problems.

Much ~ma to MG's mom, E, and otherwise not-up-to-snuff Buffistas and associates. Much, much sympathy to AnotherAlaskan.

Go, K-bug with the mad driving skillz! ::hands MG a bottle of valium::

Interview~ma for Katie Bee and Sparky.

Yay, sj and Dave, on the new apartment having! Very much looking forward to pictures, it sounds like a lovely place.

I'm sure I've left someone out, so I offer lots of hugs and glitter and kitty-cat purrs for them's as needs some.

Anyone want to do my laundry for me? I can't be arsed to get out of my easy chair, but it really does need to be done. I'll pay you in brownies.

---

Recovery~ma to E.

Tons of job~ma, Sparky.

---

Oh sj, I meant to congratulate you on your new place. Congrats!

Budreaux's Butt Paste

If I hadn't spent the afternoon with toddlers, the name of this product alone could nearly induce me to have another baby, but no thanks. Scott came home early to help, and I think he's all inspired to get the big V.

Thanks, Cindy! It's been a crazy day with too many questions from my family. Tomorrow, I start making a moving plan.

Toddlers are the perfect baby antidote.
