Sickness, Craziness, & Treasures;)

Hey, all:)

It sure was nice getting those three days off in a row last week, but I'm very tired after opening the last 4 days with one more tomorrow:( Besides, I don't count Wednesday as a day off since I had to chaperone Brett's field trip. Oh, well, we had fun other than the puking kid:) Speaking of which, Brett got sick at school on Friday & Wanda had to go pick him up as I was in the tub & didn't hear the phone ring. Poor little guy!

There was no tailgating this past Friday night as the Eskymos played in Menominee & just barely lost:( Next Friday is Little Cheer night, so I will have to take lots of pics of Lexie cheering:)

Yesterday, I was supposed to work 5:30-2, but Tina asked me to stay til 3, so I did. Then I ran to Shopko for a few things. When I got home, Jay & the kids weren't here, so I decided to take a walk down the trail:) Probably kinda dangerous after the last time especially alone:) LOL! Anyway, I put my shoes on - not an appropriate walking pair I soon discovered as my feet were killing me by the time I got home & I could feel every rock on the trail:( There was a hayride taking place on the trail which was kinda cool:) I took my camera with me & got lots of pretty scenic pics:) I will have to find something cool to do with them in my scrapbook if I ever get one done:)The leaves are changing colors & it's beautiful:) It sprinkled on me for a little bit, but the trees hang over the trail, so I didn't get very wet - just a couple drops. Jason was home when I got back - by himself! I asked where the kids were & he said they were at his mom's - where they'd been all day! He never called or left a note or message, so I assumed they were with him:( GRRRR! I hate when he does that! Anyway, he did it again today:( No note or anything! Enough of that:(

Friday night Brett wanted to stay at Grandma Wanda's, but I told him no since he threw up at school - didn't think it was the best idea:( He wanted to watch the season premiere of the star wars cartoon. Saturday & Sunday, Lexie helped Grandma clean the upstairs - you should see all the "treasures" she found & brought home:( You know what they say... one man's junk - like she needs anymore crap:( Oh, well. Seriously, she brought home this old humungous wooden fork & spoon that used to hang on grandma's kitchen wall. I told her she was NOT hanging them up in her room. She told me daddy was hanging them up in her playhouse. That was OK:) (sigh of relief!LOL)

Patti from our church told the kids the other day that today was pet day at church, so they both insisted on bringing their cats (which do NOT like riding in the car). Anyway, apparently Lexie misunderstood Patti because you weren't supposed to bring your pets to the service! You were supposed to bring them to something at 4 p.m. I think to get them blessed or something, so the poor cats had to stay in the car during church:( Crazy!

We've had a crazy week at work:( One of the managers had heart surgery last week- 8 stints were put in:( He's had a heart attack before:( He just turned 40 on October first! Poor guy:( Anyway, that's messed up our schedule this week. We do have 2 people training this week & 2 more training next week, then she plans to hire at least one more next week. I'm pushing for my SIL's sister, Mika;) She's awesome:)

Alright, well, it's after 8 already & I gotta make sure the kid's things are all ready for school tomorrow & get them ready for bed:) Goodnight:)
