• I have my little Timothy today because… I CAN!   My daughter, Candis, started a new job today and the older two went to her friend’s house, but little guy is not well.  So Nanna to the rescue!!   The friend has 4 of her own, the youngest being only a few months old and a cranky baby, from what Candi told me.  Candi didn’t want to leave an ill and ill-tempered baby with her the very first day!  He is warm, even with the baby Motrin in him, but he’s still got a smile for his Nanna.
  We kept him this weekend too on Saturday night and most of Sunday.
  Here are a couple pics of this beautiful boy with the fam.
  First is his bath in  Nanna’s kitchen sink.  The bath toys are expensive too!!! A lid from a cottage cheese bowl!

  He’s wearing his Nanna bib  in the little walker seat.  I got it from friends where I worked before. He looks so cute.  I sure hate to see him feel so lousy.  His little throat is sore.  
  I typed the previous earlier this morning, but since then, his mommy got him an appointment at the Children’s Medical Center where he goes.   Nanna took him and did NOT like the mean ole Dr. for making my lil sweetie cry! grrrrrr
  He hasn’t got strep, but a virus that should run it’s course in the next day or so.  sigh
  It’s no fun to see him not want to even drink anything.
  OK, below are some amusing, but possibly, helpful tips.  I hope you get a snicker from reading them.

    AMAZINGLY SIMPLE HOME
  REMEDIES

  1. A mouse
  trap, placed on top of your alarm clock,
  will prevent you from rolling over
  and going back

  to sleep after you hit the snooze
  button.

  2. If you have
  a bad cough, take a large dose of
  laxatives, then you will be afraid to
  cough.

  3. Clumsy? Avoid cutting yourself while slicing
  vegetables by
  getting someone else to hold them

  while you chop away.

  4. Avoid arguments
  with the Mrs. about lifting the
  toilet seat by simply using the
  sink.

  5. For high blood pressure sufferers: simply cut
  yourself and
  bleed for a few minutes,

  thus reducing the pressure in your veins.
  

  Remember to use a timer.

  6. Have a bad
  toothache? Smash your thumb with a
  hammer and you will forget about the
  toothache.

  Sometimes, we just need to remember what the rules of
  life
  really are:

  You only need two tools:

  WD-40 and Duct Tape.
  

  If it doesn’t move and should, use the WD-40.
  

  If it shouldn’t move and does, use the duct
  tape.
  Silly stuff, but I got it in an email from a well-meaning friend and thought I’d share.
