This weekend was great! Nothing special happened. Actually I take that back...I got to spend most of Saturday afternoon with my grandfather. He's fiesty and still loves to pick fights with me. the four of us wore him out.... and I think we were a little wore out too. I think I am going to buy him a Blackhawks shirt. He hates hockey- thinks they are going to loss. That would be oh, so funny!
My grandfather told me that he feels like an old man- well, he is 87! He said he's not old and that he's going to live to 90! I loved hearing that. He was in the yard all day barking directions and yelling to get off the other part of the garden. Paul missed the yelling and the directions, lucky him!
I'm on a mission- to get the winter clothes put away, to get the summer clothes organized, to move into our new bedroom, to clean the carpet. Oh yeah, to plant the rest of the flowers. I think Paul thinks I am insane. Maybe he loves me despite my flower obsession!?!
Hailee had the biggest fit she's ever had with me yesterday. I took a small bite of her candy and she lost it on the floor on Dominick's. I picked her up and put her in the cart and she hit me...repeatedly. Then she threw a bottle of Vitamin Water on the floor and it broke. A woman asked me if I was having a bad day and actually, nope I wasn't. Yes, I was stressed out and more than annoyed, but having a bad day- nah!
A bad day would be burying your child, parent, grandparent... getting in a car accident...finding out someone is sick. Hailee's temper tantrum was Hailee being over tired and almost 3. She's testing the boundaries, exploring her word, testing Mommy. She does a lot of that lately.
I talked to a woman who's son got into Lenart. She was confused- very very confused. I gave her all of the knowledge I wish someone would've given me. I hope she makes the right choice. She needs to make a decision by 5 p.m. today. She has never visited the school and both of her other kids go to Keller. I think the cards are stacked against the right choice. Opportunity sometimes only knocks once...I'm glad Paul and I made the right decision. Hope we make many other ones.
Going to Barbara Vick tomorrow- need answers. Need to make the right decision.....
