*Okoye got a job! I had my doubts at first because at first, when I asked him what was said at the interview, the words ‘you’re hired!’ was never said. I tried to keep his hopes but also tried to make him understand that it might not happen but it did! So he works at a steak/grill restaurant, making salads, at least for now. Like he said ‘at least it’s a job!’ and with that attitude I can’t complain. His first day was Saturday and he was worn out! he also had to work on Mother’s Day and I tried my best to not show how disappointed I was but secretly deep down…I had a panic attack that this was the first time I had EVER not been with my baby on Mother’s Day…whew…my chest tightens even now.
*My Mother’s Day started with a hospital visit. My niece had to rush my great niece, Ava Rae, to the emergency room Saturday night for drinking 4oz of Benadryl so early Sunday morning I brought my niece a Mother’s Day breakfast of pancakes from McDonalds. Ave Rae is back home but she looked so tiny in the hospital bed! Of course…ya’ll know I got pictures. She was so tired. I got there about 8am and she finally went to sleep about 6 that morning so she was SO knocked out….
*I finally picked the photo’s I wanted to use for my AWinTL project. This was NOT easy. Since I used my timer in a lot of situations I had tons of photo’s. I could have deleted most of them ( I mean c’mon 10 pictures of me fluffing my pillow to get it exactly right IS excessive) but I didn’t want to miss any small detail. I finally settled on the ones I wanted to use and uploaded them and ordered them. I very seldom use my printer at home, at least for photo’s. the boys will use it for their own purposes ( you should see their rooms…every available space has photos SCOTCHED taped to it….) if they want a picture right then but I’d rather send out for them. I’m trying to remember its not about the embellishments or stickers (which I am big on) but more of the journaling…the words telling what could be going on in any given day or week in our lives so its hard but not hard for me. I don’t want to rush through this but to think about and savor what the photos mean so I can express it.
*Oh! Now that Mothers Day has passed I can tell you what my dad did for my mom, LOL Their anniversary was March 31st so what does he do…March 25th he asks me to call around and see about ordering my mom a mother’s ring. You know the one’s with her stone and then the birth stones. Called around and found several places that do it BUT they have a little twist too them…you can have names engraved on the rings. How cool is that! Very cool but….it takes 4-5 weeks for completion. Hmmm not going to work for their anniversary so he decided it would be for Mother’s Day. About a week ago it was complete…GOrgeousssssssssssss….he out did himself with this one! And she loveddddddddd it. Loved it! I love their love for each other and it so VERY special…
*I’ma lil bit upset at my pharmacy and my insurance company. I have been put on a new medication (well I guess I cant say that I’ve been put on it since I have yet to actually TAKE it) that I have been waiting a week to get filled but my pharmacy cant fill it because my insurance company is talking to my doctor on rather I really need it. I guess if I need it..they will pay for it or at least a portion of it…. A week people. A week. Good thing it’s not a life or death situation…
