It sucks not to have insurance

Well, I had my eye appointment. I have been procrastinating getting it done, because I don't have medical insurance. Just as I suspected, it was expensive. My eyes are so jacked up, Every year, I need a different prescription. I have okay vision, but I have astigmatisms, and I have cataracts. I finally found contact lenses that I feel okay with. I am still getting used to them though, and it will take time. I also needed new glasses, so I am out around 500 bucks. I have something else that they refer to as chronic dry eye. My tear ducts don't produce enough tears to lubricate my eye....At the moment, I can't afford insurance. Thank God, my children are Native or else I don't know what we would do.
On another note, I went to Santa Fe yesterday, the girls had a check up. So, I dropped by the mall, because I get these coupons all the time from Victoria's Secret and I figured may as well use them instead of throwing them in the trash, (its like free money)... Any whooo... I stopped at Claire's and got Miss Esmeralda's ears pierced. She didn't shed one single tear. The lady doing the piercing was shocked. She said wow! I have never done a baby that hasn't cried. I was so proud of her. When she got pierced she just kept on staring at the lady. It was awesome! Eddie was ok when I got Vanessa's ears pierced, but when he saw his little Emmie, he almost cried. He said, "why are you making her grow up so fast" &"she is our last baby, lets keep her that way"... It was just his emotions getting the better of him. But I guess it really is sinking in to him that she is the last of the Trivino's. (our Trivino's anyway)

its been a while

It has been a LONG time since i blogged... been busy. Getting the kids ready for school, thats a busy time of year ya know? I have 2 at home, Vanessa has class one day a week. I am still officially going nuts over here. Esmeralda is so busy, she spends most of her day, emptying every drawer, or cabinet she can pry open...so, this means on top of everyday household chores, I now have to CLEAN CLEAN CLEAN, after a baby. My little toddler/preschooler, Vanessa, is also a busy little bee. Her current hobby is drawing, on walls, doors, car seats, and herself. oh the joys of motherhood.
Lets see what else has happened: went to the movies, once with the kids to see the GI JOE action flick, then on a date with MR Eddie, to see Inglourious Basterds... they were both real good. Can't wait to see the new Tyler Perry movie we love Madea!
Eddie went for 2 loads of wood already, but we need about eight more I think. I like the house cold in the summer, and HOT in the winter. We burn alot of wood...
Vanessa has a potluck at school tomorrow, and I am stumped, I don't know what to take....
Esmeralda is going to be walking, I think, she is along the furniture...she has 5 teeth with one more protruding... so yup she is a grouch....
