Whew! I have had a heck of a week around here! Here’s the skinny:
The Girl lost her tooth, and lucky for everyone, no one had to pull it! She wanted it out so bad, and she asked me to try and pull it. I did try, but it would not come out. So, she sadly went to bed. I hadn’t even sat down after tucking her in when I here, “Mom! It came out!” Of course, the Toothfairy came and The Girl is “Two Bucks” richer.
I had a rough week at work. I discovered that people in LA will not, under any circumstances be on time for anything. I, for one, HATE to be late, and am often 10 to 15 minutes early for everything. The people that I work with apparently are not as concerned with timeliness as I am, and that made me late for stuff. One person didn’t even show up! It was irritating, to say the least.
I took yesterday and today off of work to bake cookies, make truffles and fudge, and get the house ready for my mom, who is flying in from Michigan today. Unfortunately, both kids ended up sick (terrible colds), so my house looks like a tornado hit it. A tornado made from tissues, toys, and pillows.
I got an email from my brother yesterday. I haven’t seen him in 6 years or so. He was in a bad motorcycle accident a few years ago, and since that time, has kind of straightened himself up. Anyway, I never hear from him, and I get all news about him from my mom or sister. So, when I get this email from him, I was shocked. Then I read it, and he said that he’s going to be starting school next month! He’s going to school for radiology! I’m so excited for him, and I really hope that it works out for him.
So, overall, it hasn’t been a bad week, just a busy one. I really should be cleaning my house right now, but I really don’t want to.
Oh…only 8 more shopping days till Christmas, and I’m not done. I thought I was close, but now I’m even doubting that…..sigh.
