Amazing how asthma has a season. Here is a picture of Tot taking his medication while being occupied by a gameboy. Anything to pass the time (click to enlarge):

It brings back memories of when all this started. Bou did a guest post HERE.… reminding me of how far we have gotten with all of this. But it has been a long week with me getting up at least once a night to nebulize him. He is having what is called asthma spasms. Not nearly as bad as some of the all out attacks but still needs to be treated. It is the season.

I thought it odd that the pulmonologist called it ‘the season’… but he wasn’t joking. It has been a hard haul the last couple of weeks. Usually it is brought on by colds or the flu, but there is just something not quite right that is causing some issues. Hopefully it won’t last much longer. Sleep, I need sleep.

Tot is prone to getting poked in the eye. Not sure how or why, but it seems to happen about every 6 months. Here is the assistance checking out his 3-d vision. I love the bug looking glasses on him.

Both boys were in about a month ago to have a general vision checkup. Right now their vision is fine. But during that visit Dr. S noticed some swelling in the back of Tot’s eye. This time it was my fault, I had poked him with the nebulizer… he turned about the time I was bringing it around to his face. I didn’t realize how badly I had hit him with it. That will be the 3rd time he has injured his eye. I hope that it gets stronger in time…

UPDATE: I poked Tater in the eye last night by mistake. He walked up behind me as I was turning around to ask whether he wanted Transformer gummies or fruit rollups as his dessert… yep, right in the eye with the corner of the box. Sigh…

I am getting emails lately with the ‘after’ pictures. THIS LINK has some that just amaze me. Like the horse that is by the house. I’m glad it survived. And the boat on top of the car? I wonder what type of industrial clamps where used at the dock? Or was that boat inland to start with? Why do pictures of such destruction keep our attention? Is it because you wonder what would you do in that situation? Or that you are glad it is not you? I always wonder when it will happen to me. Odd since I’m usually a optimist, but not when it comes to mother nature. Mother nature scares me. I’ll run from her any day. How about you?
