Blue Eyes?

By some trick of lighting Reesa's eyes appear very blue here when they are still the navy blue of all baby eyes.

The Oliver household is just in survival mode these days. Eddy's dad has been in and out of the hospital at Calico and last night we had to take him back. My dad goes to the doctor, I believe, today in Mountain Home. He REALLY plans on having the catheter removed! Whether that is a reality is something that I'm glad not to be there for. I was there last week for everything else and I could really develop a phobia for hospitals. Over the past year and a half, I have either been a patient in or visited 7 different hospitals. Let me tell you, they all smell the same!!!

I have been trying to slowly clear my own yard of the branches as there is no one else to do it. Eddy leaves at 6 something and gets home at 6 something! Add in feeding to the schedule and Eddy has to depend upon me for the news and weather report, something he really hates to turn over to someone not quite as junkie about those issues as he is.....I get 15 min of speaking time in the evening and morning if I am lucky. I am 1000th on the list of importance on answering his cell for my call, so if you're thinking that you want a decision made by the Oliver household right now and you always thought that I should be CEO, then call me now. I'm getting all the current say so!

If I could complain, why does it seem that all major appliances conspire to fail together? My washing machine jumps around my laundry room like a coked-up space vehicle and no amount of balancing helps. The dishwasher has decided to form some kind of union, being a Maytag also, and will only work only one setting if I sit beside it and press my hand in a certain place. NOW, my oven element has gone out on top of everything else.

Sach, Codi and Reesa will be here this weekend for her first trip to Fulton County. Stay tuned for video.

I need to go now and take pictures of the puppies as I need to start the campaign to disburse them among the unsuspecting of the area.
