Oh! Oh! Can I tell my health problems? Pulezzzze?!? Ok. I just got back from the eye doctor. My left eye started feeling strange about a week ago. Almost like it was scratched, but with more of an achey feel. Anyway....soon what looked like a bunch of dust particles and threads appeared on that eye. Drops and rinsing in water didn't make them go away. Then a couple of days ago I was walking to bed and I saw a flash of light in the corner of the room. I went to investigate and saw more flashes off to the side....and figured out it was flashes just in my eye, not in the room. SSSSoooooooo....I decided to go to the eye doctor today. I have "Posterior Vitreous Detachment" in that eye and there's not a blasted thing they can do about it. It's like looking through a windshield with an oil film all over it and lots of bug splatters. It's fairly common, but not for someone of my age (yea..I've heard that before...adhesive capsulitis in my shoulder, arthritis.....). Dr. Hooton says the bad news is that about 75% of people that have it happen in one eye have it happen in the other eye within a year. Bummer. It's something I'll just have to live with....and there are MANY more things worse than this to have to live with. So....why all this whining to you people you may ask? Unless your mother wants to confess something, you guys have my genes. You should be informed. Now you are. I now return you to your regularly scheduled program.

A tale of two Brians
THIS GUY has to be having a hard time right now in Utah trying to make a name for himself and selling his music given that THIS GUY has quite a musical history too and has more press coverage. Some people are just born to have bad luck.
potty training done
Kiera is 100% in "tinkling" in her potty for 5 days now (except at night). I'd say potty training is done. I do have to say though that the transition from little potty to big potty was difficult (it didn’t help that Lydia was sick either). She would tinkle a tiny bit and then ask to go again 5-10 mins later all day long! Finally I was trying to make dinner and after being interrupted twice by her asking me to go (meanwhile my sick little Lydia cries hard when I leave the room with Kiera and if I bring her with she rolls around our nasty bathroom floor). So she came up and asked again “tinkles, mommy!” So I broke down and busted out the little potty and put her in front of the TV on it. I then picked up Lydia and nursed the poor little thing to sleep. Kiera tinkled quite and bit and was quite pleased with her self and pulled out the tray beneath the potty that holds the tinkles before I could stop her (I don’t run very fast when I’m holding a sleeping baby). Of cour...
