I am doing part time babysitting this week for a friend (her DD Nicole is 22 months) for a bit in the morning and afternoon while she integrates gradually into daycare. I have been babysitting Nicole for 10 months now, but her parents wanted to send her to daycare since a spot opened up (it is hard to get daycare here).

Once Nicole left at 9:30 this morning I took my 2 girls out for groceries and errands. Was out until almost 1pm. Now Nicole has returned and my girls are still napping. They will play downstairs in the basement (they have a play area there) when they get up and when Nicole leaves I will either head to finish errands or make supper, depending on what time she leaves. Thank goodness the babysitting only lasts for this week. I would rather have her full time then to be "on call". I never know when she will be here or not.

I had to go to wally world and now I'm going to attempt to make an apple pie. I'm great with cookies, cakes, and cheesecakes, but pies elude me. I'm sure I'll be on the phone with my fabulous pie baking grandmother more than a couple of times. 88 years old and she'll talk your ear off, LOL.

I won't be on much the rest of the day (if at all) and the next two days dh is out of town and I'm planning on visiting family.

I'm here. OMG I'm so tired!! I've been watching 6 kids since the middle of the night Sunday. My SIL (another sister of DH's) just came to pick the extra 2 up for a while, but they'll probably be back to spend the night here tonight, because Monica (SIL that had the baby) isn't being released until tomorrow.

I actually got mad at DH for not taking the day off to help me. How mean was that of me? He has to work and I understand it, but here I am watching his sister's kids (she's like my sister too though), and I ask him once in a blue moon to take the day off and he doesn't. He said he couldn't because he's giving a verbal test to his med students, but still. . . He could have postponed that one day. I feel mean asking, but I also feel mad that he didn't say yes.

He told me he'd take the day off tomorrow and let me sleep in, though. And he's been calling me and emailing me all day with cute messages to make up for it. He left me a "prescription" this morning to "Take one kiss every hour as needed for aggravation" LOL!! It's hard to stay mad at him for too long when he's so cute like that, and he knows it!

I am soooooooo tired though! Remind me not to open a daycare center!

I spent the afternoon doing some chores and sneaking in my one soap opera. DD woke up from her nap and we played in our pool for an hour. Pretty soon it will be time to to make dinner. I just love being a sahm!

Im totally wishing I had TV right now, lol. I don't know what I'm going to do when Grey's Anatomy starts up again on September 21st!!

I found out that since I'm a "housewife", I'm entitled to alimony in this state. I'm not going to ask for very much though, just enough to help me cover my expenses.

I think if he sees it as taking care of his son he won't mind it so much...it's not like I sit around on my butt all day!

I'm gonna go DYK for a bit. I want to hit 6k tonight! Hey Des, can I have a 6k blinkie if I get it that far?

I might run out of things to say though.

Sofia it's totally sweet that your DH does stuff like that for you.

darlin I'll make you any blinkie you want LOL... even one that says "I posted the 5956th DYK!" LOL

I just got home from a very stressful day... I took the kids to Penney's to find Kyle some clothes, and I kid you not they were little brats. Hannah was running everywhere playing in the clothes, and Natalie was laughing and carrying on, then got mad and yelled at me because I wouldn't buy her a shirt. After that we had to go to Walmart and they did somewhat ok there, but we had to leave early b/c Natalie had to go to the bathroom and I refuse to use the bathrooms there. I guess I'll go back tonight and finish getting rest of my stuff.
I sat down here to cool down so I can think of an appropriate punishment... I hate days like this :o(

anyway, now it's time to put them all back in the car so I can pick up Kyle from work

I need a break... preferable one involving a quiet, relaxing environment, a massage, and a strawberry daquiri

Bored here, but have not had time to get on. Nicholas has kept me busy.
Hope tomorrow is another day for the board.
