I confess! It has been a crazy few weeks and I am behind on reading y'alls blogs. Forgive me? Maybe, you haven't even noticed. Maybe you think I'm rude. I hope not. I love you, I really do. I'm just lagging. I promise to get on board and behave and catch up and, and, and, well, whatever it takes to get back in your good graces. If you will forgive me - I'll be your best friend!!! Read that in your best sing songy voice.
Also, guess what? My youngest daughter-mother of G-baby, had her wisdom teeth cut out today --- ALL SIX OF THEM!! Can you believe that? OH.MY.WORD. Who ever heard of SIX wisdom teeth? The oral surgeon said that it is a trait from American Indians. He says, they are the only ones with more than 4. Guess we should check the family tree!!! Remember - he said that not me. If that's wrong and you know it, oops!
Also, are any of y'all as MEAN as I am when you are premenstrual? I am just evil! My poor hubby gets the brunt of it. He's a good man, I tell ya! I hear myself being so ugly and I'm like WHAT ARE YOU SAYING WOMAN? Yet, it flies out of my mouth anyway. Yes, I know, I'm in prayer about it - so is HE!!
Also, My son is an Attorney. He tells city governments what to do. They PAY him for this! Yet, he whined like a girl when little man threw up on him recently - go figure! He's going to whine again when he sees this! ;D
Yes, I guess I'm in a contemplative mood. It's the PMS I tell ya!!!
Yeah I know what you are talking about. I do not always get that way, but sometimes it is bad. Well good luck to your hubby and I will keep you all in my prayers.

Why is it that men seem to be at their worst and most annoying when I am PMS'ing? It is like they have this sixth sense and tend to be extra irritating or something. At least my husband does.
Although, I suppose it could just be that he SEEMS worse during that time, but I am still going with it being his fault. It is always the man's fault, right? ;-)

Although I miss your name in my inbox - you will never fall out of my 'grace' - I have been busy myslef lately, so I know what you mean not visiting as much as usual.
6!!! wisdom teeth - Yikes! I hope your daughter is okay.
Posted by: eph2810 | May 12, 2006 at 12:52 AM
Hmmmmmm......6 wisdom teeth? Never heard that one. I am an eighth Cherokee and some other Indian blood, but all of my family only has the usual 4. Maybe from a different tribe, or maybe our blood is too watered down.
As for the PMS, I had a hysterectomy 7 years ago, and I highly recommend it to anyone who is definitely done with having babies. It made a new woman out of me, and my husband and family is grateful, too. LOL :-)

Yes, Yes, Yes!
(I forgive you, I do that too, and I still love you!)

Hang in there, and just do what you need to get done! We'll all still be here when you're finished.
And yes, I'm mean as a snake that time of the month.

In my defense, after being used as target practice for Little Man's projectile vomiting episode I did spend the next night (and into the following morning) vomiting.

I have never heard of 6 wisdom teeth. I am almost 30 and have never had mine come it at all...
Posted by: Faith in Florida | May 12, 2006 at 10:52 AM
Premenstral? I haven't been prementral for nearly four years! I've either been pregnant or breastfeeding. But, my husband is growing weary of me being so mean out of exhaustion. Does that count?
Anyway, I only have 3 wisdom teeth. I tell people it's because I'm so wise, if I had another one, I would be intolerable. God didn't want me too have too much wisdom, just enough! LOL!
Posted by: Leah | May 12, 2006 at 11:02 AM
Oh, I am so with you! On being behind, that is ... because I'm a perfect angel when it comes to PMS.
Actually, my doctor just put me on the three month birth control pill (not to avoid getting pregnant, but for other health issues)... I wonder if I'll have two months LESS PMS to deal with?
Posted by: Gibee | May 12, 2006 at 01:26 PM
Grrr... Since starting with coffee again, my PMS has been lasting ALL week, instead of a day. I think it's ending today, finally.
I've fallen behind on posts, too. Been kind of a wierd "change of seasons" for me. I'm sure glad we have the LBY study, though. It's been the one constant in my crazy mind lately. I haven't read many posts even for that, but I'm getting my mind right with God. That's what counts, right? ;)

Your poor son! Sounds like he paid for it the next day :(
I do miss ya, but I'm blogcationing now... I need to find a way to still enjoy blogging but not be on it all day ya know?!
This weather is just gorgeous. Have wonderful Mama's Day weekend Faith :)

In anthropology they clasify a skull as human mostly by it's teeth . . . which is interesting since as you know people are not getting thier wisdom teeth or getting too many . . . So I tease my hubby who never got two of his teeth - as something other than human! ;-)
Posted by: Michelle | May 12, 2006 at 02:26 PM
I just love that your son came in and defended himself... on a post where everyone is commenting about PMSing. He soooooooo loves you.
Posted by: Lauren | May 12, 2006 at 07:25 PM
I used to be so easy to get along with when I was PMS-ing, but ever since the kids were born, it's like my hormones are all wanky and I get irritable and sick and everything. It's like I'm a girl or something.
Posted by: Rebecca | May 12, 2006 at 11:11 PM
I have two bottom wisdom teeth and 1/4 wisdom tooth on each side of the upper. I wonder what ancestry that is a by-product of. Crazy Cajun Columbians, maybe?
Tell your son to go throw up on the city planners. They're allowing too much (commercial) construction without the road infrastructure to support the growth.
Okay, I feel much better now.
Posted by: Carol | May 12, 2006 at 11:44 PM
I had six wisdom teeth too! I have never heard of anyone else that did. I am not aware of American Indian blood in our family, but nothing would surprise me. We are a Heinz 57 kind of bunch. My condolences to your daughter. Getting six teeth cut out at once stinks. I remember!!
Thanks for stopping by my blog.

Dont worry Faith I am behind too so behind....
I however can relate with the pms symptoms.... I am just as mean if not meaner.... I SAY SUCH HORRID THINGS... I do repent them but still I try my best not to do it but I cant help it.
Posted by: veronica | May 13, 2006 at 01:04 AM
I'm with ya, I'm PMSing too and boy everyone better stay out of my way LOL
I don't think we women are that bad when we PMS, I think that we must send off some sort of vibes that men pick up on, then they start acting annoying and just tick us off. At least that's what I'm choosing to believe LOL

It's all good. Happy Mother's Day.

Faith, I'll let you decide if this is off-topic or not, but.....
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!
Posted by: Diane J. | May 14, 2006 at 01:06 AM
Oh my!
6 wisdom teeth! That's brutal. I had all 4 of mine cut out at the same time...2 bone impacted 2 tissue impacted...it was worse than having a baby...nothing has ever come close to the misery of my wisdom teeth surgery...YUK! I'll pray for your daughter..
As far as PMS...I am mean AND depressed AND emotional...I say things and think things that make me look back (when it has passed ) and I say WHO WAS THAT WOMAN?
You're too funny!
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!
:-)
