Motherhood

Intresting things happen while hubby is away at work. Yesterday the girls were playing over by the couch and coffee table. They sounded like they were having a blast, so I let them play. They played four about ten minutes before I hear *THUD* *silence* *CRYING* OK... I RUN over there to see what happens and all I see is Zoe with blood running down her chin. Ive seen bloodly lips a couple times before, but nothing to this severity. It wasnt horrible, but it wasnt good. Here lip is still a bit swollen and looks like she bit a chunk out. Ewww.

Later in the night, I download some LOST eppisodes and watch them, surf the TV for something OKAY to watch. Every thing was repeats. I ended up some how not getting eppisode 16 or 20, so I cant watch the ones that I did get, man this sucks! LoL I am half tempted to go BUY the boxed set if we wernt on such a strict budget! Oh I can wait I guess!

About 8PM my daughter comes out of her room. This usually infuriates me becuase she does the whole kid thing, "i have to go to the bathroom" " i am thirsty" "i forgot to brush my teeth" "i forgot to give you a hug" "i forgot to give you a kiss" "can i watch cartoons". This time was different. To start off, I wasnt mad at all, in fact, I was kind of happy to see her...Until she GAGGED ! LOL I told her to run the bathroom! She did... I followed, then noticed she smelled of puke. I tell her to take of her pjs, then I go into her room and her blakets, pillow, floor, stuffed animals, wall, curtains and other misc. items were covered in vomit. I have now washed the bedding FOUR times, and it still smells...good thing its Saturday and I dont feel like washing any thing else! OK enough puke talk...

This morning, I get up (i was half awake all night) check on Caitlin, look at the fish, run to the store for Milk, Prople, Rolaids (ive had some horrible heart burn!), gum, & a nail buffer.

I wake up Tony becuase he woke me up when he got home and TOLD me to WAKE HIM UP when the alarm went off. I guess he was going to go help some guys put up trusses (sp) on his new store for his race cars, or something like that. My first question was, "are you getting paid to do this??" he said "yes why the hell else would I get up this early! " LOL okiedokie then!

I make him clean the bedrail, curtains and wall and stuff because I had my fair share last night. (see above) He bitched and moaned but finally went and cleaned some of it up. I have to give him credit, its nasty cleaning up that stuff.

I can not wait until Monday, when we can spend some time together as a family. Its Halloween, so we will definatly take the girls trick or treating. I have not read the stuff yet, but in Caitlins back pack is some info about a walk in a pumpkin patch or something. I also read something at Walmart this morning about some trick or treating, or costume somthing or other. Ill find out more about that later. I called the family resource center and had them mail me a calender of events. They have a Costume Party open house from 10 to noon. Maybe Zoe and I will go to that since Caitlin will be in school having their party. So much to do so little time!! This all
sounds very exciting !

Oh ya... when I got home from Walmart, I fed the cats, and the fish and noticed one of our shrimp decieded to take a dirt nap. Or well maybe a wet nap. ANYWAYS he was at the bottom of the tank half white. I didnt want to fish him out at that moment becuase Caitlin was stiring around on the couch. I went to go dig him out later, only to find he was MIA. LOL I wonder where he went. I wonder if he was the one who JUMPED OUT OF THE NET yesterday when I changed and cleaned the fish tank, yes I know, this could be why he took a wet nap. What can you do. The tank was soo nasty you could barley see the fish and its a very tiny tank! LOL YES i know they say you should have ONE fish per GALON of water, but I thought one fish would get lonely, so we got two goldfish, who one happens to of turned colors on us, a platty, and two shrimp. Figured they would clean the bottom of the tank nicly. Back to the goldfish who turned colors. He looked like he was "dirty" the other day. So when I cleaned the tank, I quarentined him from the other fish. That was actually the OTHER reason why I cleaned the tank, in case he was ill or something. While I was cleaning the tank, hubby looked up on the net and found that gold fish CAN turn colors and the most common was black! WHEW! Today he is darker then he was yesterday.

OK Phone is ringing,,, bubbye
