WHAT A WEEKEND

SO THIS WEEKEND WAS A LITTLE CRAZY TO SAY THE LEAST. FRIDAY EVENING I CALLED THE SHOP BEFORE I LEFT TO GO TO WORK AND THEY SAID THAT I DID NOT HAVE TO BE THERE UNTIL 9AM. ABOUT 10 MIN LATER THEY CALLED BACK TO SAY THAT I NOW HAD TO BE THERE AT 8AM BECAUSE SOMEONE JUST HAD TO BE THERE EARLY. OK FINE. WELL WHEN I GOT THERE THE PHONE WAS RINGING WHEN I ENTERED THE SHOP ONLY FOR IT TO BE THE PEOPLE THAT HAD TO BE IN EARLY CANCELLING. THANKS. WELL IT WAS PRETTY BUSY THAT DAY AT THE SHOP AND I NEEDED TO LEAVE BY AT LEAST 3:30. JORDAN WAS INVITED TO GO TO A PLAY AT A NEW ALBANY HIGH SCHOOL. IT WAS "HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL" AND I HAD TO BE HOME TO TAKE HER TO DEBBIES BY 4:30. SO AFTER WORK I RUSHED TO THE BANK AT WALMART WITH JUST SECONDS TO SPARE BEFORE THEY CLOSED. THEN RUSHED HOME TO FIND THAT JORDAN HAD LEFT A FEW MINUTES EARLY AND THAT DEBBIE HAD COME AND GOT HER. BUT I STILL NEEDED TO GET GROCERIES AND SINCE JORDAN WAS DOING SOMETHING SPECIAL RILEY WANTED TO DO SOMETHING SPECIAL AS WELL. SO WE WERE OFF AS SOON AS I GOT HOME. SHE HAS BEEN WANTING TO GO TO THE PLAYPLACE FOREVER SO WE WENT TO McDONALDS AND I LET HER PLAY UNTIL SHE WAS READY TO GO. THEN WE WENT TO WALMART TO GET GROCERIES. LET ME TELL YOU FOLKS--OUR WALMART HAS NO COMPETITION SO WE DO NOT GET GOOD SERVICE AT ALL. RILEY AND I WAITED IN LINE JUST TO CHECK OUT FOR 30MINUTES! AND I AM SORRY TO SAY THAT THIS IN NO EXAGERATION. ANYWAY WE FINALLY GOT HOME AROUND 8:30. BY THE TIME WE GOT THINGS PUT AWAY I WAS HAMMERED.

SO YESTERDAY I HAD TO CLEAN HOUSE. I USUALLY DO THIS ON THURSDAY OR FRIDAY BUT THOSE 2 DAYS HAPPENED TO BE SUPER NICE AND WE SPENT THEM OUTSIDE. I MADE A POT OF HOMEMADE CHICKEN NOODLE SOUP AND JUST BASICALLY WORKED MY BUNS OFF AROUND HERE. WELL I WAS JUST ABOUT DONE WHEN BEA CALLED AND WANTED TO COME GET HER HAIR CUT. SHE HAS BEEN TRYING TO GET OUT HERE FOR A WHILE SO I SAID YES. SHE GOT HERE ABOUT 7PM AND HAD MY NIECE WITH HER. SHE WANTED HER HAIR CUT AS WELL. WELL LAST TIME SHE WAS OUT SHE HAD LICE. SAME WITH THIS TIME. AT FIRST SHE SAID THAT SHE WAS JUST TREATED ABOUT 4-5DAYS AGO. SO I WENT THROUGH MOST OF HER HAIR JUST GETTING OUT THE EGGS--BECAUSE IF YOU DONT GET THOSE OUT IT WILL JUST KEEP RETURNING. THEN WHEN I GOT TO THE CROWN OF HER HAIR I FOUND ABOUT 3 TINY BUGS. SO BY THE TIME I GOT DONE TREATING AND CUTTING HER HAIR IT WAS AFTER 10 PM. I TOLD EVERETT THAT I WILL NOT DO HAIRCUTS PAST A CERTAIN TIME ON SUNDAYS NOW.

THEN THIS MORNING ---BECAUSE I WAS BUSY DOING HAIR YESTERDAY EVENING IT SEEMED I HAD TO CLEAN EVERYTHING AGAIN. WHEN I WENT INTO JORDANS ROOM THIS MORNING--I FOUND HAY ON THE FLOOR. I FOLLOWED A TRAIL INTO THE CUBBY UNDER HER TV. IN THERE SHE HAS THIS CART THAT HAS 3 DRAWERS AND WHEELS. IN THE TOP DRAWER WAS HAY A PIECE OF CARROT AND A LITTLE TINY MOUSE. IT WAS ALIVE BUT JUST BARELY. IT WAS ONE THAT THE CATS HAD GOT A HOLD OF AND HER AND NATALIE COULD NOT STAND IT. I HAD TOLD THEM TO LEAVE IT ALONE BUT I GUESS THEY FELT LIKE THEY HAD TO SAVE IT. WELL I PUT IT BACK TO THE CATS.

WELL RIGHT NOW MY LAUNDRY IS DONE DRYING AND THE DISHWASHER IS DONE WASHING AND RILEY IS WANTING SOME HOT CHOCHOLATE. AFTER I GET FINISHED WITH ALL OF THAT I NEED TO MAKE A RUN TO TOWN TO PAY MY PROPERTY TAXES FOR THE FALL AND TO MAIL SOME BILLS AND STOP AND CHECK ON MY BOOTH. I PROBABLY SHOULD GO TO THE CHIROPRACTOR WHILE I AM IN TOWN. MY BACK ALWAYS HURTS TO SOME DEGREE--IT IS JUST SOMETHING THAT I LIVE WITH. SOME TIMES IT GOES OUT AND I CANT MOVE FOR A WEEK. SOMETIMES I STOVE IT UP AND IT JUST LASTS FOR ABOUT 3 DAYS. BUT THIS TIME IT HAS LASTED OVER A WEEK AND IT IS ABOUT TO WEAR ME OUT. I CAN STILL FUNCTION BUT IT TAKES A LOT OF EFFORT. EVERYONE HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY.
