Alrighty! I haven't posted for about a week. So, I'm going to start with last weekend.
Last Sunday:
Grandma took AJ over night and they had a ton of fun. Daddy and I had a lot of fun too. We went to the bar and played some pool, and we both got very very drunk, but me probably more than Aaron. Lets see, I started out with a Tequila Sunrise, which was ok. I had the choice between that or a Long Island Ice Tea, but that one was gross, so Aaron drank it. Then the bartender made me something that looked like the Tequila Sunrise, but it was made with Vodka. After some searching online I believe it was a Vodka Sunrise. Anyway, I had a couple of those. I also had a Red Headed Slut, and tried an apple flavored shot, but I do not remember what it was called. I didn't like it though. Oh boy was I smashed.
Acouple days before one of the drivers at Aaron's work had gotten a tip from the porn shop next to the bar that included 20% off of any purchase. So, of course since I was good and drunk we went next door to use it. Aaron stayed at the front while I was taken around the store with the cashier lady just handing me stuff. I think we got like 3 toys and a video all for about $40. I have to say though, if I were not drunk I would not have gotten the toys she gave me. To me the toys that I got were boring. I also was too drunk to actually watch the video when I got home, and still have not watched it lol.
Anyway, after my trip into and around the porn store, we sat out from to wait for the taxi. We got home, and I threw up everything, which is a definite first for me.
Monday:
Complete, horrible, nasty hangover. I swear when I woke up I was still drunk. I was dizzy and shakey, but I had to go pick up AJ. I brought AJ home, and sad to say... I turned on the tv and gave him a ton of toys and I layed down. Daddy, AJ, and I actually napped together most of the day.
Wednesday:
This was a very busy day for me. Since I have been out of work for a couple of weeks, I literally have no money to my name. I decided to take a substituting job. It was a three day job, and Aaron works Wednesday and Friday mornings, so I had to get a babysitter. Normally, I won't be working on the days that Aaron works all day, but I'm in desperate need of income at this point. My cousin Shawn watched AJ for me. I substituted at a middle school for a business ed class that had no teacher yet. Since I wasn't prepared to not have to teach, I stuck to watch the previous substitute had been doing. I showed two 15 min movies on entry level careers. I gave them a quiz on both movies, and then had them write a short essay. My God, these kids should not be in the seventh grade. Amazingly, half these kids did not know how to spell True. As I was grading the papers, a lot put down yes or no or Ture and False. This is sad. I knew how to spell true in grade school.
This was also my first day of school. I got out of my job at 4:20 and drove all the way home to get AJ, which took 30 minutes. I took Aaron to work, and dropped AJ off at my mom's house, this took another 15 minutes. I still had to get some art supplies for my class, took 10 min. Then it took 30 min to get to school. My class started at 5:30. If you do the math, I was late for my first day of school.
Class went pretty well, a lot of people did not have their art supplies so we couldn't do the work. We did get to leave early. I went to pick AJ up from my mom's and then drove over to Heather's house. It was time to start our second week of Walk Your Butt Off, which I believe I'll have to post the second week's schedule even though it's already over. We also weighed, measured, and took pictures of ourselves. I'm so proud: I've lost two pounds, and some places have lost about 1/4 inch but we'll probably chalk that up to mismeasurement.
Thursday:
Went to work again. I taught each class how to make a monthly budget. Of course quite a few students let me know that they were not in math class and shouldn't have to do this. I rushed home so Aaron could get to work on time.
AJ and I went to Heather's and we Walked Our Butt Off.
Friday:
Yet again, I went to work. Shawn watched AJ again. About two periods into the day, Heather called me and told me that she took Thomas to the doctor, and he has Impetigo. It's a contagious skin rash. I needed to get AJ checked out. It is not common over age 6, but Thomas is 6 and AJ isn't even a year, so it was better to be safe. I left work early, and drove AJ to the doctor. He does have a sore on his nose, but there was no way to tell if it was infected until it spread. So, he was prescribed an antibiotic ointment just in case.
I also tried to go to my school because me financial aid has not been configured and my it was my due date. Turns out they were not open as late as I thought they were, and needless to say... I was dropped from my classes, and now I need to wait until Tuesday to get it figured out.
I went to my mom's house to spend some time over there because I had borrowed her car and she needed it back. AJ was sitting next to Uncle Jonathan when he reached over and pulled the cheese out of Uncle Jonathan's fresh out of the oven pizza. AJ immediately started to scream. It took me a second before I realized what happened and then started pulling the cheese off of his hand, and I ran him to the sink to run cold water on it. AJ was screaming still and I was trying to calm him down. His hand was beet red. Jonathan was very upset, almost crying. I was then trying to comfort both him and the baby. I tried to call Aaron at work, but he didn't answer his phone, and when I called his work number they wouldn't let me talk to him. I was fuming... angry... I wanted to beat his face in.
I put AJ in the car and was on my way to the walk in clinic when I remember I didn't have his insurance card. My house was just down the street. I got to my house looked at AJ's hand, it wasn't red anymore, just pinkish. I went back to the walk in clinic, and found out they didn't take AJ's insurance but that there was an emergency pediatrician down the street that did. I put AJ back in the car, looked at his hand, and it wasn't pink anymore.. it was just baby colored skin. I felt his skin, it wasn't hot, and he wasn't upset when I touched it. So, I took him home, loved on him, fed him, played with him, gave him a bath, loved on him some more, and put my very tired boy to bed.
Saturday:
Yesterday... Had a fight with my mom.... I did two days worth of walking because friday was too stressful and busy to walk.
I made homemade fishstick and corn on the cob... mmmm it was yummy.
My brother spent the night, and was very helpful. One of Aaron's coworkers offered to close the store for him, so Jonathan watched AJ (he was already asleep for the night) so Aaron and I could go play pool. I suck at pool, and I didn't drink, but it was still really fun. We played two games of pool and two games of this sack throwing video game thing. Aaron beat me at pool, and once at the sack game. I beat him the other time. I really enjoy spending time with Aaron. He's my love, and I am still amazed at how much you could love someone and still be in love with someone after living with them for over a year, expecially being pregnant for the first half of that.
I guess sometimes its hard to forget that your past experiences will not always be what it will be like in the future. I have to remember that Aaron is not at all like Kevin, and he will never be like Kevin, so I don't have to worry.
Well, that's it for today. I'm going to do some school work. I'm going to design some cards for my hopefully new crafting idea. I'm going to take care of my son, probably do an exercise video, and clean my house, WOOHOO!
