What?!?!

I have so many things to blog about... Doctor's birthday, our family going to a corn maze, the Homecoming parade, Honey Bunch learning to button her jacket all by herself....but all these things will have to wait. Why? Because I have shingles. What?!?! I asked Doctor if he's sure, I've only heard of old people in nursing homes getting shingles. He's sure. I'm trying to follow the counsel given by Joseph B. Wirthlin in last weekends General Conference to find humor in things but I'm coming up short. I can think of one thing, though. Last night Doctor asked me if I wanted my steroid shot in my arm or my bottom. Dude (who I thought was asleep) hollered out, "Mom! Is Dad going to shoot you in the butt?" I'm moving a little slow right now, but keep your eyes out for fun blogs a comin'.

I am so sorry Dolly. I hope you are feeling better soon.

O.K. the humor in it is Ben thinking his Dad is going to shoot you in the butt. You have to admit...that is funny.
