My Crazy Life
My life has been a little crazy lately, which you may have noticed since I have not been posting as much as I used to. I thought I would share with you a little peak into the craziness I call life.
Wednesday, February 21 – BAB has surgery at Children’s Hospital to remove a brachial cleft cyst from the right side of his neck. Same day SMB comes down with the flu. Grandma D. calls me at the hospital to say that he cannot stop throwing up. He continues to do so until bedtime.
Thursday, February 22 – I frantically realize that the wedding is just one week away and I still have not purchased my shoes or gotten my dress altered. CRAP. Send out email to all my gal pals asking who does their alterations. Drop dress off at Nobby’s downtown, find shoes later that night at TJ MAXX. Someone upstairs must love me….
Friday, February 23 – The bride-to-be calls me. The tux place has no record of SMB coming in for his tux fitting. I calm her, call tux place and work things out. All is good.
Saturday, February 24 – Head to mall to try and find my 80’s outfit for the rehearsal dinner. Run into problem: can’t really remember difference between 80’s and early 90’s clothing. Need my mom.
Sunday, February 25 – Have poster unveiling at Jo-Beth in Rookwood for one of my clients. All 4 TV cover, so does Enquirer and Community Press – HIT! Still need 80’s clothing…..
Monday, February 26 – Wake up in the middle of the night to to throw up. Crap. Seems I have come down with flu bug. Double crap. Oh well, need to loose weight for wedding anyway.
Tuesday, February 27 – Call into work but go anyway. Have too much to do. That evening get home to find that I cannot make it. Spend the whole night in the family room on the couch. Come up to help tuck in the boys for bed and find that BAB now has flu bug too and has thrown up all over his bed. Conduct emergency bath and bed-ectomy. Sleep on sofa with BAB praying that he doesn’t throw up again.
Wednesday, February 28 – Nobby’s calls. The dress is ready, Hallelujah!! The tux place calls too. I can come pick up the tux. Go pick up the tux and remember I still need outfit for 80’s rehearsal dinner…. find outfit after 10th store. All is right in the world. That night DH gets sick.
Thursday, March 1 – Rehearsal and dinner is tonight at 6pm. Rush home from work to put on crazy 80’s outfit (stirrup pants, tshirt, big earrings, big bracelets, etc.), get SMB dressed in his 80’s outfit and head down to do wedding run through. Rehearsal goes well and party is a blast. Discover Qdoba restaurant and can’t stop thinking about it. DH is getting sicker.
Friday, March 2 – Wedding day!! Get to salon at 10:30 for manicure, pedicure and hairstyle. It’s 3 p.m. when I am finished. During that time bride looses shoes and mind but both are found. Head down to bridal suite, get ready and run to the wedding for photos. Wedding is wonderful and reception is great, my night ends around 11 p.m. SMB is a hit with the ladies. DH still feels like crap, Mom watches BAB that night.
Saturday, March 3 – No one sleeps in even though they all stayed up late… not fair. DH feels better, tries to go to gym, it wears him out. He is still sick. I run to mall and return tux. Find HUGE sale and New York and Co. Buy myself a sweater for being such a great wife and mom.
Sunday, March 4 – DH is still sick but is feeling a little better. Sleeps all day only leaving to get some air while I grocery shop. I write this blog, stealing about 10 minutes of quiet time…..
