I went to the orthopedist last week to look at my shoulder. He said he wanted to give me a shot of cortisone. The only cortisone I ever had was back 26 years ago when I had poison oak so bad I was a huge puff of itchy rashness. He had a student with him so I was on stage. He marked the spot then poked the needle in, moved till he found the spot he wanted, then sunk it in. Man, I was really hurting for a few days. It's not so bad today. I have to wait 4-6 weeks and if it's not better he wants to scope it and clean it out! Ugh.
Chantel got her 4 wisdom teeth pulled out on Friday. It is so hilarious to see the patients in the back recovery area, wasted and dazed. Chelsea sat back there sobbing, Chantel was just wasted and rubbery. It was classic trying to get her coat on and then walking her to the car! She repeated 50 times that she counted to 15 or 5 or 10. She was funny.
I had to almost carry her to the door. She was freaking out about so many things, but remembers nothing.
I should have videotaped her! I could always use a little blackmail material.

Stuff
So here is some stuff that has been going on-
Chelsea had a dance concert at the high school. She does ballroom and has a fun time. What we hate having to sit through is all the modern dancing stuff. I swear every one of their numbers they start on the floor, do a lot of rolling around on the floor, smack the floor, and the end of every dance they fall to the floor. And every song that they dance to is some emo song. It is funny how when they are done with each number there is clapping, but at the end of each ballroom dance the crowd roars. Chelsea was cracking us up because she kept having these funny faces during their numbers. She is in California right now with the whole dance group. I guess one of our kids has to make it to Disneyland!
Chantel is finishing up her first real semester of BYU and is realizing how bad Physical Science really sucks! Finals next week and then she comes home for a couple weeks. Should be loads of fun.
I have been struggling to find the Christmas Spirit, even with a month and 1/2 of Christmas music! Abby, Madalyn and I went out this morning in the freezing snowstorm to go do a wee bit of shopping. It was fun and actually added a feeling of the season. I guess with work being so stressful (we are reeeeeealy struggling with the economy) I am freaking out and pretty much just worry about taking care of my family. I need to exercise more faith.
We as the Bishopric had a small get together at the Wakefield's last night to say thanks for all they do. All I know is that Bradley (Marc Anthony) Frandsen is one big hoot. Fun stories, great comments, he loves to bake, heck, I wanted to take him home! It is weird that I have been the Bishop for over 5 years. Anyway, they all rock for all the time and effort they put in to make the ward run as well as it does. And thanks to their WONDERFUL wives for putting up with all the junk and time away.
The hard part has begun- Holiday goodies have started to be dropped off at the house. I have little willpower! Mmmmm, cake & cookies. I guess I will be running even more.
