My life, in list form:
1) TW was in the hospital for five days.
2) I haven’t read more than two sentences of a book since Sunday.
3) We’re losing the bed war: Skeeter 4 — Denise & TW 1.
4) The puppy ate her brand new awesome leash in less than three minutes.
5) The puppy ate the power button off of the brand new uverse remote control on the first day we used it.
6) I have eaten almost no food in the last five days.
7) TW’s check still hasn’t arrived.
8) I have a mountain of clean laundry that needs to be put away.
9) My house is trashed.
10) I have a post due tomorrow that I haven’t even started and I don’t have the first clue about what to say. (Hi Jenna. Sorry. Umm. TW. Hospital. Bad shit happened. I’m trying, I swear to God I am.)
~~
1) TW is home and did not die in the hospital.
2) We have an actual explanation for her mystery traffic accident pain. (long story, ask me again another time.)
3) I have eaten twice today!
4) The puppy is cute and understands “Yes” very well.
5) We have friends who send things like barrels of cheese balls and gummi bears just because they are made of awesome.
6) I (finally) cancelled comcast and ordered uverse TV and it’s excellent.
7) uverse remote controls only cost $20.
8) Johnny Mac Pippin is freaking adorable and he’s very smart, just like I told everyone he was — before he was born.
9) I have done ALL of the laundry.
10) I have blogged (at least) once a day for ten days.
I am home and that is super exciting even if we don’t have a solid dx. I can’t explain how incredibly cool having an explanation for the “car accident” pain really is to me–even if it is non fixable.
I thoroughly enjoy the pictures of JMP. That is a super duper cute baby
And I’m so glad TW is home and things are optimistic for her!
You’re doing great!
Yay for an medical explaination! Not having a “name” to something medically speaking to me is the worst.
Super glad TW is home. Giggle on the puppy in bed though. Could have told you that y’all would end up on the losing end. 🙂
And of course JMP is super smart and adorable – he’s your grandson!
I think that good list effortlessly trumps the bad list. 🙂
I’m glad you have been able to see the light in the dark, that TW is home, and that you have some sort of explanation! 🙂
Thank goodness you guys can return to some kind of normalness now! Welcome home Tarrant and Denise, you need to eat. Not leashes though, too much fiber.
Hey there, Denise! Just getting out of BlogHer to read outside web sites and what fun it is, especially yours with the travails of Skeeter Bess, not to mention T.W. Takes me about a year to figure things out. I’m ahead of schedule. Like your lists. Good outweighs the bad. I’d let them both stay. Much Love, Fondly, Robin
The dogs have been running my at-home asylum for years now, so I have nothing to offer you dear women except the relatively empty statement that if were in your hood I’d be (a) cleaning your bathrooms and (b) trying not to eat the gummis.
TW, thank heavens you’re okay. Denise, I think this calls for more bacon.

I’m glad both of you are home. This will allow both of you to decide on the new larger bed. Skeeter Bess has chomped and it is only a matter of time before you bend to the superior will of the canine.
Much love and keep the frozen meat bones in stock. Skeeter Bess needs her night time snacking.
Glad to know everything is getting better!
I decided to post because I read that you’re no longer with Comcast. If you decide to come back. Please feel free to contact me. I am here to help.
