First of all, I was asleep last night by 10:13 pm. I can't tell you when that happened last. I woke up late(r) than normal, and let N sleep until 7:00. Why? Because he had his second day of testing today, and I wanted to be sure he was well rested. Besides, I got up early on Tuesday and made him sausage and eggs for breakfast, so I figured letting him sleep late would make up for NOT doing that this morning. He got blueberry multi-grain waffles. And he liked them. Dang it.
After I took him to school, I came home and contemplated going back to bed for a minute. It was rainy and dreary and chilly, so it would've been perfect...so perfect, that I would've overslept and missed my interview. So, I opted to be a grown-up and got ready instead. I walked to the door in my dress and heels, only to discover that my black umbrella was inside out in the closet. Perfect. That left me with one option:
The Sock Monkey umbrella. Laugh. Go ahead. You think I'm kidding, but sadly, I'm not. And actually, it was kind of perfect...because that's just "me." You know? Anyway, I got there, and hung out, watching Kathie Lee and Hoda while I waited for the manager, and had a great time talking to her. She was looking for someone to work 12 hour shifts on the weekends, which is something I can't do, but she mentioned a position that hadn't been posted yet that she thought I would be perfect for, and set the ball rolling on that one. It was seriously such a blessing to meet her and talk to her today. I wasn't sure about her at first, but she was so down to earth and had so many of the same thoughts I did...especially when it comes to being a mom first. It was refreshing to hear that from a professional, given my previous experience with that.
I came home and made lunch, then I took a nap. I was exhausted. I couldn't help it...dang rain! When the boys got home, they were annoyed because they had to stay inside. Practice was cancelled (Um, duh! I could've called that one on Wednesday) so we were stuck at home and inside. B did his homework while he was waiting for his dad, and they both watched television. Not much you can do when you're grounded from video games, according to them, anyway.
When B left, N and I hung out. We looked at stuff on Facebook, and he read everything in a British accent, for reasons unknown. I called my dad to find out when he was coming on Friday, and I'm SO excited!!! I just can't tell you how much I've missed him. Since both boys have make-up practice on Friday, I told my dad he might have to meet us at the ball fields instead. I'm hoping he gets into town before that, but we'll see.
In other news, I haven't been to my Friday class in three weeks...and my professor just posted that we won't have class on Friday either. It just so happens to coincide with the Rangers Home Opener. For some reason, I don't think it's coincidence at all. He's a former baseball coach, and LOVES baseball. When the boys went a few weeks ago (on their Spring Break) he talked baseball with them for at least 20 minutes. They all loved it.
I just finished a test for one class, and I'm going to have to make a run to school at some point this week to get a book that I need for my newest class...before my deadline on Sunday.
I'm attempting to not procrastinate. News flash: It's not going well.
