I, Pessimist

GREETINGS! Hey, what a surprise, more snow on TUESDAY again! This winter thing is getting old eh? Mother nature can turn the winter down anytime. Sooner then later would be better. Mia still enjoys the white obnoxious frozen stuff, yet can't wait for warm sunshine, grassy hills and frequent bike rides. Did a little sketch over the weekend, this little hammerhead shark with a hipster stache. I dunno why, but I really liked how it turned out. Cute, simple and unique. Could do a colour version some day, we'll see. Over the weekend, I got to hold my adorable little nephew Easton Saturday. he's so cute.

Today, she had her 2-year doc check up. Normally, every doc visit doesn't end well. Especially when there are shots involved. We didn't think she was getting any today, but she ended up getting one for Hep A plus some blood taken to test for lead paint. First shot, she took it like a total champ. She didn't even get upset in the slightest bit. We were pleasantly shocked and quite stoked. Then they escorted us to the lab for the blood test. This one, a little tricky. They wanted one of us to hold her quite tight and they had to take blood right out of her arm. As uncomfortable as she was/looked, she took it like a champ too. I did my very best to distract her. It actually reminded me of the time, my little brother got a staple or two put in his head after falling on his noodle in my parent's kitchen many many years ago. I knew he was hating getting the staple put in, so I distracted him. Man, Mia surprised all of us. The nurses said "Wow, that was unbelievable!" She didn't care for the band aid afterword, but it was defiantly a great doctor visit. She told everyone she saw today about it in great detail. Looks like she's pretty average for height and weight. Awesome.

In other news, our computer is back to normal and fully updated. New memory sticks in and a fan were installed to keep the inside from overheating. Can finally do some photo editing and such. Next up will be my laptop, which isn't a major priority.  Thursday, Chelsea's playing. Hoping for another win. Pens had a great victory over my Dad's Bolts. Gotta keep the momentum going Penguins! :) That's all for now. Thanks for reading :)
