She’s A Maniac. She Really Is.

Imagine if you will, a toddler throwing a half-quasi fit.
Are you picturing Helene? Cuz that is what I want you to do.

Picture my angel throwing her little fit by rapidly stomping her tiny feet while swinging her head from side to side.

Now picture my husband, the local court jester, singing, “She’s a maniac, maniac, on the flo-o-or. And she’s dancin’ like she’s never danced befo-o-or”, at the same time.

PLEASE tell me you’re laughing.
I know I’m all hopped up on some pain pills….
But I just can’t stop laughing when I think about this!!!!

I’m laughing. In fact, I spewed hot coffee outta my nose. Ouch. Now I’m still laughing a little and crying some, too. Your blog is hazardous to my health.

OH.MY.GOD…that is HILARIOUS! Your husband sounds hilarious by the way. And the picture of your daughter having a tantrum is great! Oh I wouldn’t have been able to stop laughing and I’m not hopped up on pain pills!

Yes, it is truly funny. But I do sometimes substitute my two daughters for Helene in my imagination. Hee!

LMAO! That’s great! I’ll have to remember that next time my 2-yr-old son is throwing a fit (or my 6-yr-old son for that matter! lol). Maybe I won’t be so mad then if I’m laughing. I also must say that I practically spit my water all over my desk when I just read about the old man’s ass poking through your curtain a few messages down! LOL (yes, I’ve been gone and I’m trying to catch up some).

Awwww… she’s adorable even when she’s being difficult! And kudos to Tyson for enjoying the tantrum just enough to crack the joke!

I have such a clear mental image and yes I am chuckling like mad over it.

What a wonderful moment to capture for posterity here on the blog.

Blessings

From seeing photos of the children in a tuppeware container containing what beans? Yeah I can see the little darling doing that. Next time grab the digital camera!

You need to post a) a picture of Helene doing that and b) a recording of Tyson singing. Then my life would be complete.

Girl!! I don’t know how in the world I lost contact with you…I used to read your blog every day and I don’t know how in the world I let you disappear!! I’m so glad I “found” you again!
You’re in rough shape, it looks like, since I saw you last I am really sorry about your foot injury…that sounds torturous. I went back and read several of your older posts and saw that you were where I am now not too long ago…taking a break (although I don’t think I’m going to break too much longer…I love my blog too much). I, too, struggled with depression for a long time…was hospitalized two years ago for it…still fight it from time to time (like now). I feel for you…pain really makes it worse. I so wish you could find something that would help with that foot…I don’t know much about RSD so I don’t have anything to offer…just lots of cyber-hugs and support.
And your kids have gotten so big since I was here last…it has to be over a year since I’ve been here *kicking self*…

I am laughing so so hard. Hilarious. I am so sorry you are going through this. Whitey has a pitched nerve in his neck and his whole arm/hand has gone numb. The doctors are having a really hard time fixing it or figuring out how. He is miserable, and it seems like your situation is even worse than that. Geez! I am praying for you!
