saturday
Soccer is something that Craig has been playing for a couple of years now. Next session (which starts next week, and the previous one ended last night) he will be playing in two different leagues. Saturdays just got very long. I don't mind so much - it's just much harder now with the baby. On top of that, he's decided to play softball on Tuesday nights. Yikes. Maybe it'll be easiest now, before she can start walking.
I can't believe Madasen is over 4 months now. In some ways it feels like yesterday. She sucks her thumb now, and is just 1,000 different kinds of cute.
I had a nightmare about going back to work again last night. I was having to search through the isles to find my schedule - and when I finally found it, the page with my last name was missing. Strangely, my sister was also working there, but that page of the schedule was intact. It wasn't my current sister - it was my sister when she was around 16 too. It was just so odd. I was completely frustrated because I couldn't figure out when I worked next, and I needed to because I had to figure out childcare for the baby. I've been having nightmares about returning to work for roughly 2 weeks. It just sucks. The weird thing is that I genuinely enjoy what I do - I love working with people, and making bad situations better. I just don't love the pay (8.17/hr), and I don't love that I have to leave my daughter.
Anyway, after soccer last night we went to get Call of Duty: World at War used, which is the latest installment of the game. My dad and brother play it all the time, and Craig would like to be able to play it with them. My dad had my brother-in-law over there playing already, so then when my brother and husband finished up their soccer game, they were to go over and play too. But the store (which said they had 3 copies, 1 new and 2 used) wound up having a defective new copy and managed to "misplace" the other two. We rented it from Blockbuster for - get this - 10.00 - that's 25% of what it costs to buy it new! But he had to have it, so we got it.
I ran a load of a laundry at my mom's house while they were playing. Oh, but I forgot the fun detail of: we locked ourselves out of our house. So, at 10:30 I was back over at my house proving to the locksmith that I did in fact live here, even though the only proof I had was a title, since we haven't had our licenses changed yet. Yeah, it was fun.
Would you like to guess what time my brother in law left? 2 a.m. But that didn't deter my dad and husband. No, no. They played much later. Craig finally came to bed at 6 a.m. No, I'm not kidding. He and dad stayed up all night killing Nazi zombies. Yee-haw.
The baby and I obviously spent the night at my parents. I was far too tired to drive home, and it would have left him stranded over there. We finally came home at 1 or so, after giving two little girls 5.00 for a cup of lemonade. They were so excited - they were only charging .75, but I'm a huge supporter of entrepreneurs, and had to give them the extra money. Their eyes got so huge - 5.00 is huge still, which makes me happy. They had a combo deal with popcorn and lemonade for 1.25, but I just took the lemonade.
We'll go to church tonight. Then we'll do dinner at Village Inn. Regular Heritage Breakfast here I come. lol
We went to a used bookstore yesterday and bought "If You Give a Pig a Pancake," "If You Give a Moose a Muffin," "If You Take a Mouse to the Movies," "If You Take a Mouse to School" and "Borrower's Avenged" - all for 2.00 a piece. I also got a Lori Wick book for 6.50 that I've been looking for for quite some time. I know you're not supposed to double words. Oops. I figure if I get them now, at 2.00 a piece, then by the time she's really old enough to enjoy them I won't have spent a fortune. And yay for that.
Okay, the food will be ready for lunch in 25 seconds, so I'm going to go. I hope you all have a great Sunday, and a fabulous week!
p.s., that icon for my mood is creepy.
