I Could Eat My Weight in Cake

It's been one of those weeks. I have a serious sweet tooth to begin with but when things get stressful the sweets sure do call my name. This week has just been very busy and unfortunately my husband watching the b.ball tournament=nothing done around the house. I absolutely hate walking in the door, exhausted after a day at work and it looking like a tornado has blown threw the inside! The past two days have been especially bad and it's put me in the worst mood. To top things off R is getting sick once again (the kiddos have colds and aren't feeling well). He gets sick so freaking much, it really drives me nuts. I have no patience for people who get sick all the time. There are precautions you can take to ward off colds and illnesses, and apparently he didn't get the memo!

One reason this week has been crazy is that my neighbor (the pregnant one who was due on Easter) had her baby on Wednesday. I got a call late on my birthday asking me if I could take care of their dogs because she had to go to the hospital with complications. They ended up inducing her Wed. morning and she had the baby at 1:30pm on Wed. So needless to say I helped out by going over three times a day to take care of the dogs (feed them, let them out, take them for walks, etc....) I also washed some dishes and made some food for them. The baby ended up having to be taken to the NIC.U at another hospital so she wasn't even with the baby and the dad was having to go between two hospitals to see his wife and the baby. Just an overall crazy situation that I wasn't planning on dealing with this week. I was more than happy to help but it definitely added to the busyness of the week.

My birthday was nice, we at least got to go out to dinner without the kiddos so yay for date night, which has been non existent for months. R made me a cake and got me the label maker that I wanted so bad!!!!! My birthday last year was so great that this year didn't quite measure up. It was nice only working a half day and getting out at 10:30am. The class ended up having a student teacher so I really didn't have to do anything. I worked a half day on Wednesday too because R said he had a phone interview on Wed morning at 9am. As it turns out he screwed up the dates and it's actually next Wed. the 25th at 9am. He even got a confirmation e-mail with the correct date and time and it still didn't click in his mind. So I could have worked a whole day on Wed, very annoying. I feel like he needs to do a much better job with the planner or palm pilot or something to keep organized. He's been forgetting a lot of things that he's supposed to do lately even though I've been verbally reminding him several times. That's another reason why I've been so ticked off lately.

I really hope the weekend goes smooth and that R isn't going to be out of commission all weekend.
