A Strange Day...
Yesterday was a strange day. I went to a seminar for work in Martinez yesterday morning, and it didn't start until 9 so I had a little extra time with Maegan. When I went out to put her in the car to drop her at my mom's, the car seat wasn't in there DOH! Aaron had picked her up the night before and forgot to take it out of his truck. I called to see where he was and ask him to bring it to me. He was in PLEASANTON! No way was that going to work. Luckily my sister saved Emily's car seat, so I called up there and had Kim pick Maegan up. We just walked around the court and looked at birds and stuff until she got there. It was a beautiful morning - sunny and cool, so it was really nice. A little down-time with my baby girl. Luckily there was no traffic and getting to Martinez was a breeze, and I was actually able to find parking. The seminar was boring, but informative. It was over by 11:30, so I killed a little time before heading back to work. I picked up some lunch and went over to target to buy some dishes. FINALLY!! I've been using Lynda's ugle 99-cent dishes that she uses on her patio. I just bought plain white, big chunky diner-style dishes. I'll get some cool red table linens to match my kitchen. I only bought 8 place settings, I'll have to go back and get 4 more when I get paid.
Since I only ended up working half a day, I was busy all afternoon. Which is NICE!! Work is slow for me right now, and I HATE that! It's always slow this time of year. We've got a heavy bidding schedule and will pick up more work soon. This summer I'm sure I'll be dying for a break!
My mom called yesterday afternoon. Emily fell off of the monkey bars and hurt her arm. Mom had a root canal yesterday morning, so she was home sleeping off the drugs. Amanda was sick and didn't go to school so she was crashing at mom's. So Kim left Maegan with Amanda to go pick Emily up. As soon as she got there she realized her arm was broken. So she went home, woke up my mom, and took Amanda with her to the hospital. Turns out Emily's wrist is broken very badly. She broke one bone in two places so it's come completely unattached. The other bone is also fractured, dove-tailed. They were in the emergency room from about 1:30 yesterday until 6:30 last night. They gave Emily Demoral and tried to reset it. They hung 10 pound weights from her arm to pull it straight. I guess she was so doped up she was giggling. They couldn't fix it, so she has to have surgery this morning. Poor kid! She's only 7. It could be the first of multiple surgeries. So, I had to go pick up dad from work yesterday and take him to the store so they could get dinner. I got Emily some flowers and a card and a little teddy bear. I hope it all goes well. Everyone is nervous of course. Lynda is picking up Maegan this afternoon and taking her for the night and tomorrow. If Emily is still in the hospital tonight Aaron and I will go see her.
I'm itching for a new tattoo really bad. Hopefully I'll get one next month. I'll get to Ed Hardy's. I found an awesome tattoo artist in Vegas too... who KNOWS what will happen!
Current weight 140 pounds. I've only lost a couple of pounds. I need to get on the BALL!!
