After coming back to Casper I've realized that there are lot's of things I really did miss and lot's of things that I didn't.
Here are the pros of a big town (Casper, Wy size which isn't really that big compared to most of the world):
1) Shopping: Tons of places to shop, tons of deals, tons of options
2) Activities: things like the pottery we did and the swimming pool with tons of fun slides
3) Garage sales: there are just more of them
4) Eating out: wait a minute this one should be number one, my favorite thing to do
Here are the Cons:
1) Too many People: people are crowded around every corner there is no escaping them
2) Too much traffic: everywhere you go there are cars driving too fast or too slow or on all sides of you and not to mention the high number of traffic lights
3) Too many options: this sometimes is looked at as a positive but in my case it means that making a decision takes ten times longer
4) Limbo: In our case this means that we are living but don't have a set place or routine down which is always a negative wherever you live
Here are the Positives of a small town:
1) Activities: there are fewer options but the ones like fishing, camping, beautiful walks, community events are really good
2) Not a lot of people: Sometimes you can go to the store and be the only one there
3) Spending less money: I don't have the places to spend money so I spend less
4) Slow pace: It's less stressful
Here are the Cons of a small town:
1) No housing: for obvious reasons
2) Everyone knows everyone: It's time to kick the gossiping to the curb :) It's funny though I say more how I feel then I used to but instead it's to the right person
3) Less options for kids sports and activities
4) NO OPTIONS for lots of things: you name it I'll tell you if it's a yes of a no way
Here are the coasters that the girls made at pottery by you. Dakota's is on the left and Cloe's is on the right. I will feature my creation next week.
Dakota Enjoying a cheesecake topped GrahmCracker. The recipe is on the box it is pretty yummy! She has a lovely mustache.
I took some fun pictures of dakota having fun outside!
Cloe got to have a ride on grandma's motorcycle.
Brent came home Saturday night so we are waiting for more fun now.
Dakota is still sick and so am I but Cloe is getting better. And I guess brent isn't doing very good either.
So, thursday I took dakota to the doctor for diarhea, rash, and she hadn't peed for two days. The doctor didn't even look at her and sent her straight to the ER. Of course, she was acting normal and vitals were okay so they just wanted to make sure she didn't have an infection and had to do a cathitor and it was horrible and then it took five hours of sitting there and then finally came back with nothing and sent me home with intsrctions to do the same thing I already had been doing and a cup to but the poo in. Nobody even came in to check on us the whole time. Hello my daughter is sick she could at least use something to drink finally when the doctor came back he said that the nurse brought her pedialite but she wouldn't take it which is a lie because nobody brought us anything. Luckily my mom stopped by and brought the girls something to eat and drink I was nausious when we finally left and to think I just wanted to know if she had a yeast infection and get some medicine and the stupid doctor wouldn't even see us. I know she has a yeast infection but the doctot barely peeked at the rash and then told me the description of a yeast infection which is exactly what it looked liked. I went and got some of my own medicine. And apparently, 6 weeks is when you should worry about diarrhea unless you're loosing weight. Thanks a lot ER....errrrrrrrr. Cloe did have fun taking some pics of us there.
