Virus Alert!

My baby is sick. Fever and chills, vomiting. Poor baby. He's not well. At all. He's been in bed all day. So we took a sick day from school. I thought he was getting better this evening when he asked for a popsicle, but no. It came right back up an hour later. He's sleeping now. He wanted to sleep in... Sign in to see full entry.

Amazing Progress

Wow, I am amazed at all that I am getting done. It's hard. This upcoming court case is really weighing on me. It's not really that I am worried about the outcome. I'm not. It's just the whole rigmarole. It's a pain to have to take a day off of work --- a day and a half, really, as I have to take... Sign in to see full entry.

Busy, Busy, Dreadfully Busy...

Yes, I am looking forward to this afternoon's trip. My co-worker is driving, so I have packed "stuff to accomplish." After work last night, I went to Broadway rehearsal and a special sectional rehearsal after that. Then as I hadn't had supper, I took the kids to El Chico's. Special treat, as I won't...

Tough day .. and tough week coming on....

I may not post a lot more this week... it's just going to be so busy. Tomorrow I have work until 5, chiropractor from 5:30 to 6:15, children's choir from 6:15 to 7:30, and adult choir from 7:30 to 9.

Come, Share My Joy Today

1. Finally talked to my lawyer. X doesn't have a leg to stand on in court and is likely to be found in contempt himself. I'll still have to take a day off to go to court, but I'm probably not going to get into any trouble when I'm there. 2. Had my performance review today. It went better than I'd...

It's the Small Things that Make Big Miracles

My yard has been needing to be mown. Badly. There was a young guy who was going to do it every other week, but somehow that just hasn't worked out. It's been more than a month since the last time he came, and my grass was more than a foot high. I can't get my lawnmower to run. I was feeling... Sign in to see full entry.

Rough Day ... But I Made It.

I don't know that I necessarily made it with polish and grace, but I made it. First hurdle was pick-up this morning. We were waiting on the porch with their things. I hugged them, told them to have a good time, and went inside and locked the door. I'm trying to curb his habit of showing up and... Sign in to see full entry.

Not a Great Start to the Day

We got a knock on the door at 6 a.m. today --- it was a process server. The ex is taking me to court over summer visitation. Last time I checked, it's September now, and that means summer's over, school's back in session. So why this has to be dealt with now, I don't know. (And my lawyer told my...

Officially a Soccer Mom

Which I never thought I would be. Oh well. both my boys wanted to try soccer, so I signed them up with our church's team. And with all the recent wrecks in the Heap, I decided it was a good time to get a new car. The right car seemed to be my sister-in-law's Honda CRV -- an SUV, of all things. So...

Wow! What a Weekend!

I'm slowly getting things organized in the house. I didn't get everything done that I wanted to finish this weekend, but I got a lot of stuff done. And some funny things happened on the way. Like Saturday. No, wait. Gotta start on Thursday, when I bought my sister-in-law's car. Because that's where... Sign in to see full entry.
