I have a super evil Spring cold, my face hurts so bad, and I can’t hear anything thanks to two stuffy ears. At first I thought it was allergies, both of the kids had runny noses and the usual allergy cough, but Dylan’s seemed a little bad for allergies. His poor little nose was giving him all kinds of trouble, turns out it was a cold. He is better today with just a little runny nose, and Thade is doing great too. Maybe this cold will have a quick turn around time, and I’ll be back to normal soon.

Oh The Stress of Today
Happy Friday the 13th! Well today I woke up with a giant migraine, and then I remembered that I’ve got to get my driver’s license renewed today. That is when my hubby told me about the written test that you have to take for renewals. Great, one more thing for me to be stressed about today. I tried a practice test online, and I didn’t do so hot, I’m going to say that it was because I was holding a screaming snotty Dylan, and Thade was asking me 8 billion questions, so needless to say the kiddos are staying home with Daddy while I take this test. Wish me well, I hope I won’t be walking home this afternoon.
Trying Tuesday
It is late and I’m exhausted…
Today has been one of those days. The kiddos have been extra grumpy, and keeping busy by fighting over all of the new toys in the house. It was a bit too cold to get out today, but I didn’t seem to get that much done around the house today. I wanted to sew a few new bags, but my machine wasn’t cooperating with me… Yep it has just been one of those days all day!
Luckily James brought me home a giant Diet Coke, just maybe that will make everything all better.
The Night Out
I would love to say that our night out was so much fun, and the food was amazing, and we all had the best time, but nope nope nope… At least the kiddos had a blast at the sitters, but more about that later.
It all started when we dropped off the kiddos, and we headed off to the restaurant. We were getting a table, and the place was already packed. As we were waiting for the rest of our party to arrive 30-35 people walked in and the little waiting area was packed. Our friends made it quickly, and we (luckily) grabbed our table, and then the waiting game begins.
We waited a bit, and went on ahead and ordered drinks and appetizers, and made up our minds on what we were going to order. When our server made it back, we started to order our meals, and they were out of our first choices, second choices, and so on. So we decided on the fifth choice, and we waited and waited and waited.
I saw a few of my MOPS friends, so went over to say hi to my buddies.
When our order finally made it, nothing was right. James steak was rare and mooing, he ordered medium-well, we didn’t get the right sides, but we watched them get delivered to the other table. I ordered broiled fish, and I thought yummy, and it was eeww yucky. My shrimp didn’t taste right, but the salmon was pretty good.
James lost his appetite, and by the time that we were finally getting out of there, my stomach was killing me. Both James and I went home with unpleasant tummies, and my sickness carried over into all day Sunday.Yeah, I don’t think I’ll be going out to eat any time too soon.
At least the kids had fun. Locally there is a Church that offers babysitting services once a month for $1.00 a child, and the kids had a blast. The Church feeds the kiddos dinner, has fun craft projects and plenty of playtime, and they even get to watch a movie too. My kids loved going, and Thade can’t wait to go back.
We will definitely be doing the date night again, but I think we will stay at home, and I’ll cook.
I hate this part!
Today I am completely stressed out, and it is all thanks to my car!!! It is in the shop (4 days now) and still being looked at, and I called again, and got the “we don’t know what is wrong with it, but call tomorrow night and we’ll see if we found the problem”. All I hear is we are going to charge you an arm and a leg, and so far we can’t fix it. Yeah, I’m super grumpy and SUPER STRESSED!!!
