Hey ya'll!! So how has everyone been? Boy, I finally have some sit down time to catch up!! I've been so busy!!!! First of all, Chris is back!! He really had a blast and I can see a change in him... for the better of course... We bought him a Zune player for his b-day when he got back so he's really excited!! But I just had to share what happened in the store that day... while the kids were in the electronics dept - I had went off to find a few items I needed to buy but before I had left - Naomi asked if she could buy a movie. (Ok but let me check it out), when I returned - she had already placed it in the basket. Chris picked it up and told her to find another movie. She was like, "Why, Chris?" He said, "No, I don't think these are the kind of people you should be looking up to." I was dumbfounded!!!! The movie was (HighSchool Musical 2) which - ehhh - not for me.... or us for that matter.... Well, needless to say, Naomi was upset but settled for Enchanted. When we got home - he pulled her aside on his lap and said to her," Naomi, I wasn't trying to be mean - I just think these are the kind of people you shouldn't be looking up to. We need to find you better role models." :O) My heart lept for J-O-Y!!!!! My son actually made sense to his sister......
Lately, I'm been trying to catch up on my sleep!! It all started Thursday with preps for a party for my folks to be held on Saturday (8/2) to celebrate b-days!! We stayed up late cooking, prepping, just to wake up early Friday and continue!! Saturday, my brothers, sister and I set up the dance floor, decorated the yard, tables, etc, and the DJ arrived!! We had a blast!! I saw so many aunts, uncles and cousins I hadn't seen in a long time!!! I met new second cousins, etc... My parents danced the night away which is always refreshing for me to see.... The crazy part of the night was when my aunt Mary jumped up and started yelling that something was in her ear. She continued to howl and cry saying it was going further in and was now biting her!! She ran inside with the rest of us trying to figure out what was going on!! She didn't want anyone touching her ear so we called EMS. The Fire dept along with an ambulance roared to a screeching halt in front of our party!! They went in and were able to help out my aunt. A roach this ( BIG ) went into her ear and was biting her!! (UGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!!!) I was grossed out!! Well, I made it home around 2 a.m. b-cuz I had to teach Sunday!! :0) All in all - the party was great!! We are even thinking about having Easter there!!
Still no rest...... Monday I had an appt with the CPA, Tues an appt for Chris, Wedn an appt with my father in law and then spent the rest of the day with Daniel (hubby) @ the hospital because the PICC line came out of his arm, and Thurs went back to the hospital to reinsert the PICC in the other arm!!! So, today is Friday and I am now finding myself trying to catch up with housework!! Oh joy.......
