The Aftermath

WELL YESTERDAY...WHAT A DAY! First off it is raining like all hell.

Loaded up my van with the things needed for the meeting, and I ran out of work so fast that I forgot my lunch, drinks, and snacks that I could have during the offsite meeting! I WAS SO HUNGRY!

Get there and it seems no one read the email that states please print the attached and bring with you to the meeting. Now most of the people in this meeting are Ph.D's, M.D's, M.Ed's, Psy.D's, MSW's, and LCSW's (most of them are Psychologists). So they have the higher education. Now this is no offense to those who have higher education degrees but I swear if you work for the State of Delaware and have any of the following degrees your common sense leaves you. OK Off that subject. So SINCE no one did as the email requested I had to delay the meeting to go make copies for everyone (20 people)...and the site I am at has a slower than DEATH copier! Then the meeting does not go as my boss' would like. An arguement breaks out and then it is a battle of the brains and speaking gargon I can't understand. By now I just want to go home I am so frustrated. Well the meeting finally finishes and I get to leave to go home at 3:30 (1hr early for me).

Go pick Josh up...seems his poopy problem resolved itself. Go home and relax for an hour or so. Found out that since I am now a Merit employee and my auto insurance company (that I have had since before I got this job) is in partnership with the State of DE. So I call the company and find out I get a 10% discount...YIPEE! I tell Joey who is very happy...will save us about $15 a month. Well Josh decides he doesn't want to be happy anymore and starts SCREAMING! Now he had just eaten an hour previous so I didn't think he could be hungry...wrong I was that boy DOWNED a 9oz bottle! The Daycare said he was so hungry today he ate 3-9oz bottles (usually only has 2) and ate 3 jars of food with cereal and formula mixed (again usually only has 2). I think he is having a growth spurt...YEAH!

So Joey gets home from work. I cooked a great dinner (pork chops and veggies) and we ate as soon as he got home. Josh ate more babyfood and then we all just played on the floor until 8pm. Josh and I decided to go back to my bedroon and watch the premiere of Biggest Loser. Josh didn't fall asleep until 9:30pm. He slept the whole night BUT once Joey stepped out the door this morning and I mean the second the door shut and locked Josh started fussing (5am) so I got him brough him back to the bed and we cuddled for about and hour. Then I got up and got ready but since I have a little fussy pants I couldn't get my hair to look as great as it did yesterday...so it goes back in a ponytail and gets hairsprayed (have to spray it due to the short layers). I finish getting ready (have to dress a little warmer today due to it being a little chilly). I even had to dress Josh in pants and socks with his onsie as opposed to his usually just wearing a onsie due to the heat here.

Go to daycare and Drop Josh off and then here I am back at the hell hole of WORK! Now today is not too busy for me thank GOD. I have a few communications to get out via email to people all over the state and our providers. Other than that is should be an easy day.

I seem to be feeling better as the week progresses. I am still a little down but feelign better than Monday. To tell you the truth putting it all out like this is helping and my other therapy (Josh) is helping too. I just love that little boy!

Much Love to all!
