This week has been all over the place! Just crazy! The hardest part was when one of my kids came to me and said, “I want to tell you something sad.” He proceeded to tell me about his grandfather, who’d been hurt and…
And then my poor kid dissolved into tears and couldn’t talk anymore. I was left hanging, unsure if the grandfather was still alive, trying to console him and get the rest of the class to do what they were supposed to (we were in the library). I finally asked him if he wanted to talk to the counselor, who’s one of his special friends at school. He did. Luckily, the grandfather is still alive, just injured, and my poor baby wasn’t sure if being hurt meant he was going to die or not. The kid rebounded just fine and we signed a get well card for his grandfather.
Then the last two days have been nothing but wardrobe malfunctions. On Wednesday, I wore my darn dress backwards. And then, today, the backs of my earrings kept falling off. One disappeared in the classroom and the other disappeared into a crevice in my car. I’m really bummed, because they were Beauty and the Beast rose earrings and the backs of them had little flower petals. They were from this set at Hot Topic. Totally bummed.
But, in good news, my birthday wishes have started rolling in. My childhood dentist sent a card after I paid an emergency visit to him over Christmas break. I’ve got $5 to spend at Hot Topic, $15 at New York and Company, $5 from Charming Charlie, and $5 from Kohl’s. I also got a free milkshake from Ruby’s, but since there’s no Ruby’s by me, I’ll have to skip that one. In the meantime, it looks like I’ve got a mini-shopping spree to go on.
144 more days until Disney World!!
