Jan
13

well, as with written journaling, i’m terrible at keeping up a blog too! i’ve recently seen a challenge to blog everyday for a year, not matter what you end up talking about.

it’s strange that i’ve just seen this today after the horrific events in haiti yesterday. it seems frivolous to be worrying about blogging when hundreds, possibly thousands have probably lost their lives. what a terrible time!
i was watching the news this morning regarding the 7.0 earthquake tragedy and the reporter said that the people of haiti firstly need our prayers….what??? prayers??? i bet the gentleman that i saw on the video with the obviously crushed lower legs would rather have food, water and especially medical care at a time like this. i think the best way to help these people would be with material goods…not with abstract prayers to a god who caused this destruction in the first place. (oh wait…bad stuff = satan, good stuff = god.)

so…horrific…i have nothing to complain about on a day like this that wouldn’t seem absolutely petty.

what i would blog about on a normal january 13th though would that my youngest, tyler, is home sick today. the poor thing, unfortunately, inherited my predisposition to migraines. it seems as if processed meats also cause his migraines. he had beef jerky monday evening (a treat for getting his h1n1 shot) and by tuesday mid morning he had a splitting headache and eventually vomiting. poor kid! he was in bed for the rest of the day yesterday alternately sleeping and throwing up. this morning he still has a terrible headache but no more sick.

i was hoping that none of my kids would have to deal with migraines. they are HORRIBLE! mine used to knock me out for up to 3 days at a time.
