Barium Swallow this Morning...YUCK!

It was pretty nasty. Last time I had one I was a teenager. I don't remember it tasting that bad! I almost puked more then once. It was aweful. And the barium coated marshmallows.....they were extra gross. One got stuckin my throat. It was a mess. Anyway, I still have inflamation even though I have avoided all the gazillion things I am allergic to and have been taking prilosec twice a day. My doctor wants me to start nexium in the morning. My insurance wants me to pay extra for it, which is $22 instead of the usual $3 for prilosec. That sucks. So I will stop being a cheap ass and shell out the extra money tomorrow.

What's this bug?

I found him today out on my porch (which is in need of a paint job, I know). I've seen this type of bug before, but I don't know what it is. Do you?

Return of the Land Sperm!

I hate silverfish! I have them in this apartment too, and they are nasty. I've killed like 3 this week. Gross! And I'm not the only one, my sister (Scam) and my parents have seen them in their place too. It's an invasion! HELP!!!

the Boo Boo

My sweet little Sandtrout had blood taken at the doctors office today. He cried, of course. And before he finally went to sleep he kept talking about his "boo boo" and pointing at the bandaid on his arm. I feel so terrible about it. :(
I feel worse about the endoscopy he has to have done in a couple weeks. Us long term refluxers have to get them now and then. I just hate putting a two year old through it. He won't even know what is going on. I hope he doesn't get mad at me.

It takes all kinds, don't it? This is just too bizzare.

3 teens arrested for attack on boy

This is sick, and I can't believe it happened in the town right next to mine. These kids should be charged with attempted homicide. :/

Two 17-year-old Franklin boys were jailed Thursday after holding an 11-year-old boy against his will, beating him and stabbing him with a kitchen paring knife, Franklin police said.

Charges also are expected against a 15-year-old boy in the same incident, according to police.

Officers said the 11-year-old Franklin boy was made to stay inside 1335 Chestnut St. against his will just after 2 p.m. Thursday and was not allowed to leave. The three assailants held the boy down and removed his clothing and shoes, wrapping his head in a blanket, police said.

The boy was punched, struck with a golf club and stabbed with the kitchen knife, according to police. He was eventually released from the house and again assaulted near the 14th Street playground as he was leaving, police said.

Officers did not indicate if the same three boys were responsible for the second assault, but the 11-year-old's bicycle was taken from him in that incident.

Once the boy broke free, he went to the Franklin police department and officers secured a search warrant for 1335 Chestnut St.

Franklin police and state police officers searched the home, recovering "evidence of the assault", and one of the 17-year-old suspects was arrested and taken to the Franklin police department.

After an interview and consultation with Venango County District Attorney Marie Veon, it was determined the 17-year-old will be charged as an adult for felony crimes of aggravated assault and unlawful restraint.

The other 17-year-old and the 15-year-old also were taken to the Franklin police department, and police said the older one also would be charged as an adult, with the younger being charged by juvenile petition.

Both 17-year-olds were arraigned before District Judge Robert Boyer and placed in the Venango County jail to await a hearing on Wednesday. Police said the seriousness of the crime warranted their being charged as adults.

The 15-year-old was placed in juvenile detention to await a hearing before a judge, police said.



It scares me! The thought of them doing this to a boy the same age as my sweet nephew! And I am raising a kid in a town not far from there. Why are people so evil?

LOL! That's too funny. Who in their right mind would think carbonated water is natural anyway?

Using Aspartame To Get "High"

Snorting Crystal Lite?!?! Why can't they smoke pot and get drunk like normal tenagers?

Bad day :(

I had a nasty reaction to my allergy shots this morning and ended up knocked out on a double dose of Benadryl today for 6 hours. To top it off I had cramps. Maybe tomorrow will be better.
