I have been so VERY unproductive already this week.
But I just have to realize our lives sometimes get that way ~
so, so busy.
My DH had to go to the ER yesterday (Tuesday)
for removal of a piece of food that
became lodged in his esophagus...it took 7 1/2 hours of waiting
and only five minutes to remove.
(Mostly because there were over 200 patients
in the ER because of lack of health insurance)
He's fine now just exhausted.
I'm taking Emily and Clara to the ENT doctor this morning for a pre-op
exam as she's getting tubes in her ears Friday morning....
Poor thing has truly been sick all winter long.
Brent, Clara's dad, had the exact same trouble with his ears.
It was a blessing ~ he was so healthy after the tubes!

eeks! nothing more terrifying than having to sit in the ER :) But it was productive, because eventually it came out, thank goodnesss. It was just a different kind of productivity to what you had planned...
I hope getting tubes will help your baby, my experience is that they do work. My baby nephew expend 6 hours at the emergency room yesterday too. His visit was kind of funny. His mama have never experience nose bleeds neither the older kids. She completely freak out, thank God thats all it was. They ended giving him antibiotics for a throat infection. Take care and have a blessed week,Marta.
Dawn amor, I am so glad Dennis is ok, I was thinking about you guys all evening...I called my friend to get that recipe exactly the way it is supposed to be used...hopefully it will help next time. Bebe Clara is going to be so much better after the tubes...no more ear pulling and feeling bad...poor bebe and her parents who got no sleep during that time...ahhh memories. Amor get some rest and let us know how everything went. Talk to you later and these are beautiful pictures thank you! Besos, Rose
ps...I did it, I finally took part in something lovely in Blogland...I joined that active giveaway by Belle Blanc ;)
Oh Dawn ~ 7 hours in ER!! How absolutely frustrating, stressful and exhausting that had to be for you both! So glad he is fine now. Bless your hearts - just take it easy and rest up. It is also productive to rest, regroup and recharge...and cuddle and kiss!!!

Oh Dawn. I do hate those emergency rooms. Can't imagine having to seat there so long. It seems like emergencies should be just that and taken care of in emergency time. I'm glad everything is okay. Looks like this is going to be medical week for you. I'll say a prayer for Clare.
Hugs...Tracy :)
P.S. Thank you for always being so generous and sharing so many wonderful things with us. xxoo's
Hi dear,
So many dc.visits, glad that your husbond is ok. again sweetie.
And surely it will help Clare with the tubes, my little grandson ,never had troubles after having his, and then he -as he said-could even hear the birds sing, sweet one.
Thanks Dawn dear, for beautifull images, love the bird one.
Have a lovely day, with your loved ones.
Love and hugs, Dorthe
Bless your heart! I am happy to hear the outcome at the ER was good even though sitting and waiting is so painful. I spent many hours there with my Dad before he passed away. So many people go when it isn't an emergency and it clogs up the ER. Hope he will be good today and I will pray for Clara. I know a number of kids who had problems and after the tubes, NO MORE PROBLEMS:) Have a blessed day!
Dawn, i am glad that your husband is ok...that must have been scary...and then annoying to have to wait so long...i was thinking the same thing as Theresa, a lot of people will use an ER like it is their own personal dr's office, and it does clog up the works... i will say a prayer for your little one as she has her surgery on friday...i am sure she will feel so much better afterwards...
Oh, it sounds like you've had some exhausting and troublesome and worrisome days, Dawn. Hoping that today is far better.
Blessings,
Diane
Good Morning Dawn,
That is just awful. I am glad that Dennis is okay, but really, 7.5 hours? That is just unacceptable. I hope he is felling better today.
Sorry to hear about the tubes for Clara, but it will help her so much. Hugs to you all!

An ER is not a pleasant place to be for anyone. I am glad to hear the DH is fine.
Best of luck to little Clara she will be all the better after the tubes are put in.
Sorry to hear that you spent so long in the ER, it can be so exhausting just sitting there, and I can't imagine how scary it must have been. Blessings to Clara. I love the penmanship sample.
So sorry to hear about your familys medical problems:( Things will only get better. But I do love all of your whites - just so pretty:)

I hope everyone is ok. Very frustrating about the ER.
That had to be terrifying to have that happen. I can't imagine! I am so glad all's well that end's well! And good luck with the tubes in the ears...... I've yet to hear of anyone who that DIDN'T work for. I am confident she will be so much better with them doing their job!
Goodness, I hope your husband feels better today! And that your sweet grandchild's ear problems go away once the tubes are in.
Take care,
Claudia
Hi sweet friend,
I am so sorry to hear about all of the sickness in your house. My kids all had strep last week, ugg. I'm sorry I haven't been around lately, you have been busy girl, the shop looks good. I understand about the typewriter, I wouldn't sell it either. I'm looking for one right now to use for art. What do you do when the ribbon runs out tho? Can you still buy old ones somewhere? Give Clara a kiss for me, tell her to feel good. Lisa
Dawn, I am always impressed by your upbeat cheerful attitude! Not that you have to be that way but you really are even when things are not going perfectly, A lesson in there for me.....
Kim
so glad your dear husband is fine, keeping the little one in my prayers!
Dawn, that sounds like an ordeal yesterday...so glad everything turned out fine. Sweet Clara will feel so much better after the tubes, bless her little heart.
Be sure to stop by...I am having a huge Winter Sale..25% off all of my Scarves and Hats (that are made to order, too!)
Enjoy this gorgeous sun, today!
Hugs,

Sounds like the emergency rooms around here--always so crowded! I'm glad your hubby is okay, and I hope things go well w/little Clara--
Sorry you've been having such a tough time, Dawn! So glad your DH is okay--that's just awful! Hope everything goes well with sweet little Clara today!
Dear Dawn..holy moly 7 hrs in the er!!!...my son had a few tube operations...finally when he was 6 they had to take his tonsils out..then he was better..get some rest and take care..we are all sending good thoughts to you..(((hugs)))
So happy to hear that your DH is doing fine now. Clara will be in my prayers...my daughter had tubes put in when she was little girl. It helped her so much!
Thanks for sharing all the pretties!
I know what it's like sitting in ER. We did it Saturday with my husband. I'm happy to say he's much better, but we're going for an MRI Friday just to make sure. It certainly messes up one's week! Also both dogs at the vet 2 different days! My niece had tubes put in her ears at a young age and they helped her a lot.
Goodness. Hope every one is feeling better soon. Prayers that the tubes will be just the thing to make it all better.

Good god, Dawn.
That's a looong time to sit and wait. Especially in the ER waiting room.
Glad things went well once you finally got in to see the doc.
Geesh . . . .
Hugs,
Gerry
Geez Dawn! I am so glad that Dennis is okay now. That must have been a terrible scare!
And Clara? Steve's son had to have the same thing done. It really does make a huge difference.
Thinking of you! Hugs!
Deborah and Romeo
Some weeks are just like that...but oh so glad your dh is OK...that is some beautiful lace.
Rene
Hi Dawn, We have our ups and downs, don't we? Glad everything is turning out well! (Hopefully the ear tubes will work-I've heard good things about them).
Thanks for the lovely images-now what can I make?
Sherry

I am sorry to hear of your husband's ER visit, and the problem with your sweet babe's ears. Hoping everyone is now on the mend and back to feeling perfect soon! Pretty pics!
Sheila
So sorry you and yours have been having such a tough week. I just know the rest of the week will be much better for you. Tubes will make a HUGE improvement for sweet Clara. I know because my son had them and the ear infections stopped. What a relief that was. Thank you for the beautiful images. You are always so thoughtful.
So glad your husband is okay! ~Mandy
