Ok, all these smileys are crakin me up! There are so many I can't choose my favorite! Although I am quite partial to this one as coffee is my drink of choice!

Looks like I am going to be a Girl Scout leader after all. They actually called me and asked if I would because they are in need of a brownie & junior leader. Yes, I will be taking both troops. Fortunately I can combine them, so meetings will only be once a week. I have my first leader meeting tomorrow at 6:30pm. Then, on Thrusday I have my first Red Hat Society meeting that evening at the Olive Garden. Get this, I had to pick an alias for the REd Hats, mine is Babette. What do y'all think? I got my pink hat (ladies under 50 must wear pink hats & lavendar clothes instead of red & purple) and my outfit, now all I need are some frills and flambouyancy! Of course, I am still pursuing the craft classes I want to teach, and I have committed to reading at school twice a week for Meg's class. Looks like I was bored to darn death & now my cup of voluntarism runneth over! <--- This will be me in a few very short months, I am sure!

Ok, forgetting who all wrote what I have some responses. Find the one that fits please.

I have had all kinds of time to sit & do nothing so the whole working all the time thing hasn't been true for me. The fact that my house is always a mess & I never seem to have enough time is because when I am as BORED as I have been, I tend to spend HOURS a day with my nose in a book. Depending on how you look at it, it could be a good thing or a bad thing.

ADHD is hereditary in my family. I have traced it through 4 generations on my Mother's side. The pediatrician told me when Em was diagnosed that my other children had a 40% chance of being diagnosed with it sometime in the schooling years. So, for some of us it's the luck of the draw concerning genes, for others I really think enviromental causes can be blamed. Dr. Edward Hallowell he is a renowned doctor and author who runs his own ADHD clinic, and I love his books on the subject. I learned so much from reading them.

I took Emma to the dentist today. He felt the dental work was too extensive and wants her to see a Pediadontist, but he did prescribe an antibiotic so we could treat the infection in her gums. So, I have to contact the insurance and see about getting referred. That should be a fun hour of sitting on hold.

WELCOME BACK Cassie! Glad to see you again!

I am certain I forgot something. Oh well, HAVE A NICE TUESDAY!!!
