Crazy....

Well it's been a crazy the last couple of weeks, but we made it through them. I am working for only H&R Block now, it's great I love it! Working really any shift they need covered. Robert is still doing the remodeling of the Dillons here. Today we got our phones back on! Hooray!! Has most of our friends know, if you don't have Verizon the you can not call unless it is after 9 or on a weekend, now there are exceptions, but those people know who they are, this is per Robert. However, you can text away, we have unlimited on that.

Anyways, I bought Hailee a new coat. She likes it, ok she loves it. Her old one was white and got dirty all the time, and she complained that she was cold even when she was bundled, so I went and bought one that comes down past her knees, but she is soooo cute. I took it up to her at school. I thought maybe some of her, "I don't feel good" problems was because she was getting to cold on the playground. (Robert told me about a month or two ago we needed to get her a new one, because the white one collects so much dirt, even when it is washed.)

Well that is all the update I have for now.

Today is Monday....

Well today is a typical Monday. I didn't want to get out of bed this morning, but I did. Hailee still don't feel better, but I took her to moms and called the doctor. I ended up having to miss work because the doctor won't give my mom results. They still have no clue what is wrong with her.

Well today is 1/21/08. Both girls are out of school because of Martin Luther King Jr's Birthday. They both are sick. I have a feeling that they both have a sinus infection. They both have a lot of drainage from their noses. Their doctor tested them for strep and told me to give them Mucinex instead of giving them antibiotics. But if they don't start getting better than they are going to have to go back to the doctor.

Robert & I haven't been feeling well as well. Robert's truck is down and so he is driving the blazer, I got the Corsica back from my dad, temporarily. Hopefully I will get the rest of my w-2's and be able to fill my taxes soon. Then we will be able to get some things taken care of. Well that is about all the update I have for now.

Kids say the funniest things.....

Hailee said to me tonight that she wishes that I could have a baby boy, then she changed it to she wishes that I could have 2 babies, both boys. So there is an even number of boys to her and Nikki. So I told her that she needed to talk to Daddy about this dilemma, so on a commercial we had daddy come in the other room. She then asks "Daddy can you go buy a watermelon?" He replies with "they are out of season, right now." I whispered to ask her why.... So he asks why Hailee. She says "So mommy can have the seeds to make 2 babies, both boys.." Robert shaking his head just looks at me with this funny look. So I then have to explain why her thinking is this way. Hailee then tells daddy again that she wants to baby brothers, and that mommy must have a watermelon, to make this happen.

Dazed

Today as been one of the longest days and the year just began. Hailee went to the doctor's yesterday because she has been complaining of her stomach hurting. I thought maybe it was her appendix, however, they told me that she was severely compacted. Soooo they gave her this medicine that you mix with water and ti is suppose to help clear things up, well I guess in a matter of speaking it did, about 1:30 this morning she woke up screaming, because she got sick in her bed. ALL OVER THE BED, So Robert helped me get her out of her yucky jammies and got her set up on the couch. I got laundry started. I was up for approx another 1 1/2 after he went back to bed. Then went to work this morning, and called home at noon. I just hope that this medicine don't do it to her again tonight. If it does I might just have to miss tomorrow too, and I really don't want to do that.

Nicole on the other hand is for some reason thinking that she is the queen of everything. She thinks that it is okay to backtalk, and to cuss. She told me that her therapist said she could. She thinks that everything is her way. She is going thru this fits like nothing else. I know that God will give me the strength that I need, but Robert and I are talking all the toys out of their room. Hopefully, this will get rid of some of the issues we are having. Robert is working out of town, but I think he is done breaking the equipment for now. lol. He started classes back last night. He cooked dinner tonight. He made Chicken Parmesan, and green beans, it was really, really good. He just came in the computer room and showed me his "souvenir" from work. I had to take a picture. Hope that it makes you laugh like it did me.:)

Crafty

Hailee got tickets to the Wichita Thunder hockey game last night. We played Colorado, and we beat them in Sudden Death Overtime. It was also Thunder Dog (the team mascot) birthday. We had a blast, Robert wasn't so into it, but he had fun. The school was trying to help families be able to have a family night. Here's a fun picture!

When we got home Hailee had to eat dinner again and off to bed she went. Robert came and got on the internet. And I had too get a crafts project done......

Well as everyone that has read my blog in the last week or so knows that I have started a new job with MDA. I will start another job for H&R Block on the 18th of this month as well. So in the mean time i decided to do a little bits of crafts. Here are a few pictures. (they are flower pens.)



I think that I want to make more of these pens and do a fund raiser for Muscular Dystrophy Assn. I think that they would be fun to do, and yet it would help kids that are here in our area.

Ok, well that is my thoughts for the day.

WOW

I found my cousins that I haven't seen in almost 5 years on myspace early this morning, when I was in search for my best friend. I thought that maybe they were upset with me and that they might not add me, but come to find out my cousin Billie was happy to add me. She is studying law in San Diego, CA. GO BILLIE GO!! That makes me very proud of her.

Well, my 1st day of work went good. You have to keep a very positive attitude, which I think is GREAT! My mom didn't pick Nikki up at 3 and the school refused to let Robert pick her up, which upset me since I have added him 5 times to her pick up list.

Robert had a long day, he broke the key off in the backhoe's fuel cap, so he was stuck for almost 2 hours. Then he went to unload some pipes from a semi, and the fork-lift ran out of fuel with the forks half in the air. Then he sat the pipes down on the wood pieces and then started to back away and heard the pipes bouncing into the Dillons parking lot. So he had to wrestle them all by himself.

He took the starter off my 96 Corsica, and fixed it so there would be another running vehicle for my parents. Now we will have to get the 4-Runner fixed and then that will be up and running. He has cars to fix left & right. My mom wants him to fix their other car, has something electrical wrong with it.

My mom cooked dinner since Robert fixed the car!! YEAH! I didn't have to cook! She made finger steaks and fried potatoes. <<<<<<<<<<< YUMMY >>>>>>>>>>>>> I got my mom to set up her own blog too. Her name is Pam, you can check out her page, by clicking the link on my page.

Nikki started back to school today, as I meant above. She is tired and cranky. Thank goodness she is bed. She had her 1st bed-time accident last night in months. I am proud that she is almost potty trained. Hailee starts school tomorrow, so I have a feeling that they both are going to be quite worn out, or at least I am hoping. Hopefully they will be ready to get back on schedule. I love them both, but thank goodness for school!

Happy New Year!

Is everyone ready for the new year? I hope so. Robert passed out on me about 9:45 last night. I woke him up to ring in the new year with me. He apparently could not get back to sleep, he came crawling to bed around 7 this morning. It's a good thing that he doesn't have to work today. But back to work for us both tomorrow. I am so excited!! I cooked a turkey a couple nights ago and we broke the wish bone. He won the wish. The girls are excited to start back to school! They want to go back tomorrow, but I don't think that they start until the 3rd, or at least Hailee doesn't.

Well I gave in and made chocolate chip cookies for Robert. He thinks that they are breakfast. lol.
