Regrets

Have you ever come to a point in your life where you look back and just want to kick yourself because you could have made better choices and ended up happier?? I seem to do it all too often. I'm not talking about huge things like schooling, who I married, having/not having children. It's little things like "I should have done that project 2 months ago instead of being in a panic to get it done on time". When will I learn?

YES on 8!!!!!!

Here is a video for you to watch. It gives great reasons to vote yes on Prop. 8 in California. I no longer live in California but this vote will change the face of this country if it is not passed.
If you live in California, be sure you are registered to vote and then do it!!!!

And here is another one. This is Elder Bednar speaking with Young Adults about the issues.

If you have to go to the ER. . . . .

it's good to be in Madison county. The wait is short, the doctor's are great and you don't have to actually sit in a waiting room. How do I know all this? We got to visit the ER tonight.

Our fearless, I might say reckless, 3rd son convinced his Dad to let him ride the 4-wheeler by himself. I wasn't there so I'm not sure how the accident happened. I just know they came home a week and a half ago, laughing about Ronan's trip off the road. He complained about his arm hurting but there was no swelling or bruising appearant so we didn't take him in to have it checked out.

Tonight he decided to take a swing at his younger sister. I grabbed his arm and he went down on the floor. I thought he was going to pass out from the pain! I thought it was kind of weird for it to hurt like that 10 days later so I dragged him (unwillingly on his part) up to the ER. Sure enough, the ulna is broken clean in two. Poor kid. Fortunately the other bone is intact. The dr. put a splint on it instead of a full cast.

Ahhhhh. . .. the guilt. I noticed he was favoring it when I watched him *in gymnastics*!!!!! But it had only been 5 days at that point so I thought it was just bruised still. Ugh. I should learn. I was equally unsympathetic when he broke his leg 3.5 years ago. Maybe if they didn't cry wolf so often. . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
