So i am trying to simply make a friends list and add you all on there, just like you have in your sidebar. Im sitting stupidly at this computer wasteing an hour of perfectly good typeing time, just to accomplish nothing. Every time i want to look at someones blog....it goes a little like this
step 1. click on a comment
step 2. click on that persons page
step 3. then use their friends list to see their ffriends latest blogs
then start all over if i want other sites. so just to keep up on my daily reading, i have to click click freken click click!!!
Now that i got that out of the way, i just wanted anyone to know that your not on there cause i dont know how to put you there.
So i woke up this morning at 5.55am as jordan was scrambling around the room with dreads flying tripping over the pants around his ankles, i took another blury look at the clock and said that bad "s" word and then he says "yeah i know" and then i jump up and try not to wake asher cause today is the day that he can stay sleeping and our roomate will watch him until i get off of work. Work.....thats right, back to the wakeing up part.
I was supposed to be at work at 4:45am and it baffles me that i didnt hear the alarm even squeek. I glance a judgemental squinty side glare jordans way for the breif thought that he turned it off once again and made me late(and himself) but then i quickly get dressed and yell "im late!!" he says "me too!!!" We kiss and im out the door, blocking the dog as he's tail wacking me and trying to jump up my face, i hold him off with the door and shove him in and get into my car.
I am now the employer and the employee, so there is some reasurance in this but i find myself contiplateing wether i should fire myself if this turns into a pattern or if i should keep myslef on for my other great attributes.....then i hear my sister inlaw stiring up stairs (she is also part employer now) and i start the car as quick as possible and slam it into gear so maybe she thinks i am just a passing car and not one that is an hour late in her driveway. I dont stop at the sign and floor it out of there(at about 5 miles an hour....since the car is so cold) so maybe she wont look out the window and see me.
I get to work.........start the coffee just as the work crew pulls in(my husband, my brother and my brother in-law) they all walk straight back to the fridge case and grab their meal deals. I have jordan put the air conditioner back into the window cause it weighs more than asher and then they all wait ten minutes for me to scramble to get the brazil roast going so they can drink their coffee....they all like the light roast the best. The brother in law pays with his card.....the brother says that his wife will pay for it (the part owner law i outran this morning)
and jordan pays with the gift certificate i gave him for his birthday. They leave...kissy kissy, luvs mm hmms...bye now
Then i get a call .....6:30am
Its the roomate. I hear crying in the background and she says that asher is awake and he is really upset. So i get on the phone with him and i can tell by the tone in his voice that he is so exhausted that his eyes are probably rolling back in his head and he cant be calmed down. So i do all the usual tricks......."big like batman" and "we are going to hear the baby's heartbeat today and you are the big brother" he is still sad but i can tell he is excited to go to the doctor with me. I tell my roommate that im really sorry, i dont know why he woke so early(i had promised him sleeping till nine) but then i had to hang up cause a line of people came in at once and i was left wondering how asher handled himself today. He is in a new phase, The one that hates it when i leave and crys heartbreaking crys when i dont stay. If i get up at 4:30am to go to work, he used to stay asleep for the ride to my sisters, but now he wakes up....crys, asks for juice, asks for a story, to touch my face, for me to lay with him.........then im swerving to work 15 minutes late, asher is juiced, fed, storied and he still woke up my sister and if the screaming goes on for a while, then my sisters two children too.
Life goes on.
I am going to enroll him into the preschool here for this year. I feel like he will love it. He has been obsessed with it for years, ready for school!! he yells when he gets his back pack on. We plan to homeschool for sure. I picture more children and more time. I guess those are things that i have work at (except the baby makeing part!) Right now though, it feels just like the perfect thing. He can go one day a week or 5. He can go home at 12:30 or 5pm(hopefully not longer) I have heard nothing but good things about the teachers and the programs and so im really excited for him. Our plan is to have him in there this year....maybe next, and then by then we will be more established. I will stay home with the kids (it feels so weird saying the word with an s) and teach them what i can, and the bissiness will be more steady and running easily without me being behind the counter 40 hours a week. Someday i think we might even hire someone outside of the family to work here.Then we can all be in the same place at the same time!
AAAHHHHHhhhhhhh...........the first sip of a real coca cola. I am finally haveing a better day.
