While the GOP wants to put an end to the health care bill...

...the 18,ooo + Physicians for a National Health Program and I are still wishing it would go completely in the other direction...

We Hope Finley Loves Pokemon

Here are some pokemon we think she might like...

Ledyba, Turtwig and Squirtle!

What she needs to know . Silas says...

"There are zillions of pokemon, like little animals that are caught and trained. They live in pokeballs until their trainers have them come out to battle.

They like to battle, it's a fun game for them and they are never really hurt in battle.

They each have special powers and strengths and the cards describe what type they are."

For Silas its really all about looking endlessly at the books and cards and having me read them.

He begs Emmett and Mac to battle him all day long and they do...as long as they can stand it. Emmett is the one who passed on this love and is proud that Silas is so interested in reading because of it!

So there's the deal-eo around here. All pokemon, all the time. We really hope Finley is into it.

If not, I make a mean fort and Mac is getting her American Girls out for some lovin'...and there's always the trampoline!

Migraine Relief

I haven't had a migraine for 3 weeks now. I am crossing my fingers. It seems that if I take 2 Valerian capsules (usually for sleep and anxiety) with one Excedrin within the first hour of a developing migraine it goes away! GOES AWAY! Unreal.

I even woke up in the middle of the night with a screamer and within twenty minutes it was gone.

It doesn't seem to have negative side effects, isn't addictive and won't make me fall asleep during the carpool and I only need to take 2.

It also seems to work for the worst migraines triggered by barometer changes. Oh my god. The only negative thing I have heard about is that over time it can stop working. So far so good! I only wish I had heard about it long ago.

Thank you NPR.

Head-to-Toe Flannel

Just can't seem to find the time to blog about the many, many things that have happened so I have decided to start small.
Here is one of my favorite Christmas gifts (left).
Worlds Sexiest Nightgown! Especially when paired with wool pancho and weird boots while taking out post x-mas trash.

Matt just loves it so.

Happy New Year everyone.
