Today wasn't too bad. After yesterday's break down, anything would have been better; but today was actually pretty nice. I helped my dad take the chimney down out of the attic. Amazing that doing that was the highlight of my day. Pretty pathetic actually. But I enjoyed myself. I like physical exertion.
Took the twins outside this morning. Before I helped my dad. They had fun. Dug in the wet grass and such. When we came inside, I gave them lunch and then a bath. While they were in the bath, I worked on the kitchen a bit. Well, needless to say they got into something. Ha, the little turds grabbed my shampoo and made a very bubbly bubble bath. But it all worked out, I didn't need to use any soap or shampoo to get them clean. Just used the very soapy water to bathe them.
After school today, I picked up John and brought him to Dairy Queen, for a special "Mommy and Me" treat. He and I both enjoyed ourselves. It was nice.
Got home from our special treat and had to bring Belle to the doctor for her eczema . I just can't get a handle on it. Dr. prescribed Elidel for it. I hope it helps. The eczema doesn't seem to bother her, but I sure hate looking at it. It just looks uncomfortable. Keeping my fingers crossed.
This afternoon two guys show up at the front door selling shrimp. Oh, shrimp. The love of my life. Yummy! I had to buy some. So, they de-head them and bag them for the price per pound you pay. Not a bad deal. But what made it even better... I got to de-head them myself as well. Sounds crazy I know, but I haven't done anything "southern" like that in so long; I truly enjoyed myself. And on top of that, to make my day, the younger guy (who was 22) flirted with me so much. It felt good getting hit on by someone 6 almost 7 years younger. And let me tell you, he was not holding back, even after he found out I had a "big" husband. Michael isn't a small guy. I'm guessing my dad told him I was married. Haha, made me laugh.
Speaking of Michael... That big turd of mine has been gone a whole week and we have not had one real conversation yet. I know he isn't a big talker, but come on! Make an effort man! One of the problems, is that when I have a free moment to chat without the kids interrupting, he doesn't. Another problem is that the entire time we are on the phone, he is joking off with the guys he is sharing a room with. Please, could ya just please give me your entire attention for a few minutes?
Anyways, that was my very exciting day. I guess the best part, was that John actually behaved himself today. Well as much as a 3.5 year old behaves anyway. He did good. I was very proud of him. Hopefully the rest of my week will be this nice. Although, how many chimneys are in my attic that need taking down and how much shrimp can I buy and de-head in a weeks time?
