Do you ever have those moments when someone asks how you have been and you just want to start screaming because your day/weeks have really been that crazy busy? Well I will tell you that I have had a month of just that! BUSY doesn't even begin to describe how I am feeling right about now. Let me just name a few of the things I have been up to this past month...
1. My employer/friend had a baby June 25th and Me and My wonderful husband kept the other two kids (which I already keep everyday anyway) for 5 days and 4 nights. Can you say insane? The kids were wonderful as always but I was slammed with extra little chores to do... bathe the kids, fix them supper, read books to them, entertain them all day and half the night, take them to Alexandria to meet their new baby sister (which I was already going to do anyway). This was all fine and good and I LOVE the kids to death and we both really enjoyed them being here with us but, It really makes me think twice about having any of our own right now! hahahaha
2. That same week the Car started messing up and leaking coolant pretty much all the time. My car ran hot for two straight days. Borrowed the in laws car to drive while mine was in the shop and wouldn't you know it was just the radiator cap (or so we thought,,, more on that in a minute) I went and picked the car up Thursday June 28th because the car had been "fixed" and me and kyle were going to visit my parents that weekend. The weekend was great. Spent time with family and just enjoyed our vacation.
3. When I got back home for that trip.... I Had 4 outfits to make week before last and had to get ready for 3 photo shoots that I had to do last week while I was back at my parent's house helping with VBS! That in itself really ticked me off but I won't go into detail. So the rain messed up a lot of my plans for pictures but somehow I managed to get everything done and even though some of my ideas got put on a back burner for the week, I got some really nice shots! Check out facebook if you would like to see any of them.
4. As I get ready to leave Wednesday to come back HOME to see my husband , my car starts shaking really really bad and the Check Engine Soon light starts blinking really fast. I was honestly really scared that the car was about to die so I shut it off and then restarted it. The car sounded fine and wasn't shaking anymore so I called my husband and we talked about what to do. I was really upset that I wasn't gonna make it home to see him before he left for work but what could i do? The car had to be fixed before I could leave anyway or i'd be stranded or worse DEAD. We decided it was best for me to stop by my dad's work and let him take a look. Since we were having trouble with the coolant being low , I wanted to check and make sure that was still fine. I got to the office and me and daddy decided we better get a mechanic to look at it. Well it turns out that the Water Pump was in really bad shape and I had to get a new one. {see 2}( hahaha so much for the coolant problem being just a $14 radiator cap that was needing to be replaced) So I was very upset about that because I had traveled to my parent's and back home , to shreveport and back, and back to my parent's , and the Monroe and back with a bad water pump that could have went out at any moment leaving me stranded on the side of the road in the heat and the bad weather that was rolling in. I am so thankful that I was at my parents when all of this took place and was able to get the car fixed. I got to come home on Thursday instead of Wednesday but it was really for the best. It rained and stormed here Wednesday night anyway and I was going to be home alone
5. Since I got back home I have just been editing photos and doing a little bit of monogramming here and there and babysitting some.
I thought that since I wasn't watching the kids till August that I would have a lot more FREE TIME.... I thought WRONG!!!!
I am hoping to SLOW down soon though!
