Friday Night



It's just been one thing after another. I have been tired and moody - poor Lee! I have no patience right now. Lee is actually having a great semester so far, and his two late classes start this week. So he'll be very busy. Less time for fighting, but that strategy isn't fool proof. When you're as cranky as I have been, there's ALWAYS time to fight.

Monday I spent half the day trying to get my Math test to work. We were having a REALLY hard time with our DSL connection. Our modem finally just went kaput. So we are at dial-up speed now, and in the market for a new DSL provider. NetZero is a nightmare - don't use them. They're outsourced customer is so awful. Oh, don't get me started. Anyway.

Monday night was RCIA class. That was pretty much amazing. We had a theology teacher in charge of the lesson for the night. We learned about the history of the Bible. I even learned a few facts I did not know at all. It was great. Michelle brought blueberry tea for her and me, and that was quite yum.

Now Tuesday was ok, just tiring. I woke up EXHAUSTED. The baby is taking so much energy. I think I need to get an iron pill in addition to my pre-natals. I'm sure when I get my card, the doctor will give me a prescription for it. Anyway, Tuesday is a split shift for me now, so I work morning and night with a long stretch at home in the middle. This is to accomodate Lee's classes. It's fine. It sounds yucky, but I like having it split up and having all that time with the kiddoes.

Wednesday I finally got to go see my Mommi. that was good. I only got to go over and a couple hours, and we did what we always do - talk without stopping from the second I get there until I leave. So in other words, fun. Then Lee went to school, then I went to work. Tiring.

Thursday. I don't remember Thursday. Lee went to work in the morning, brought us pizza for lunch, then went to school. I got some good house cleaning done. Oh, wait, I remember. When Lee went to school, he dropped us off at the library. I read a book while the kids played with the toys. Then in the evening, Lee had more school, so we went to Nan's house. Me and Nan watched sitcoms together and talked about the family. (okay, we gossip way too much and I've got to learn to be a better example)




Now today, I woke up feeling less tired. That was great. I scrubbed down the kitchen, and the kids helped. Lee had to go to school early. When Lee got home, Livvy started throwing up everywhere. Poor darling. We started a steady juice and popsicle routine. A little knot in my tummy tells me I have the bug, too, but my digestive system is insanely strong. I probably won't throw up at all. Boo will probably get it. As long as Lee stays healthy, we'll be fine.

If you think of it, say a prayer for Livvy to be strong and keep drinking, and one for me - I have my first two college exams this week. I am nervous, but I feel okay!

Rachel, praying Livvy feels better ASAP and no one else gets it.

We were incredibly blessed since no one but me got sick, TBTG. I basically quarantined myself to my room so I wouldn't spread the germs around.

Praying here Rache. Hope it does not spread. I still have a cough but am hoping to go out with Michelle and Wayned tonight. I did go to church today. I just could not miss it.

Hugs- Mommi

Rachel,
I hope you all are feeling better. I was just looking through your blog for pictures for my big frame and I am blown away looking at all the beautiful pics of you and Lee with your babies. Your love for them is so strong. I am so proud of you both.
