So Fast

Why do the weekends go by so fast?

This past weekend was a long one for me and unfortunately not a fun one.


Thursday:

Before I left work I finished up my scholarship application for SHRM, wish me luck it is $5000 toward my tuition which would be such a blessing!


So Steve, Sadie and I all met up at Red Robin per our usual schedule and Sadie was abnormally cranky. She refused to sit in the high chair and unfortunately for us she is learning how to get out on her own.

So Steve decided to just leave and it was around 4:15 p.m. so I decided to go over to Oakland Mall for a bit before class and check out some more "mature" stores. So I went over to NY&C and checked some things out and to my surprise they had quite a bit on sale so I decided to pick some cute pieces up. I must admit it was not as bad as I thought.

I also bought this purse in the camel color but ended up returning it because I figured I have a bunch of other purses.

School was so brutal and again we didn't get out till around 9:30 p.m.! I just can not take the all nighters.

So on my way home I was still thinking how annoyed I am with myself and I decided I was going to do something about it so when I got home I cut my hair. Yep, did it myself.

Well, lets just say Steve was not too happy with the outcome.

Friday:

Sadie and I rolled out of bed around 6:30 a.m. but layed around the house until 9:00 a.m. before getting motivated to do anything. So once we were up and in action we went to my moms house to help her with her garage sale where she was also selling a bunch of my unneeded junk. It was a huge success because we ended up making $350 between the two of us ($100 was mine). I was so happy.

So since it was (finally) hot out I decided to get Sadie home and get her nap since she seemed tired. So once Steve got home we just hung out around home for the rest of the night.

Sadie was just not going to sleep so we tried to drive her around for awhile since this typically does the trick but no way this time. So Sadie woke up around 8:30 p.m. and she was just so miserable and just drooling so much all over the place like we have never seen before. We tried to do everything we could for her and she eventually went back to sleep around 10:00 p.m. and was just inconsolable so we decided to just give it up and take her into the ER. So we got to Beaumont and I swear I just dread doing this. When we arrived we were checked in and taken into a room in under an hour. So it was around 11:30 p.m. by this time and Sadie was pretty content and walking around and all. Steve and I were so tempted to just leave but we decided hey we are here lets just get her seen and be done with it. So my mom showed up around 12:30 a.m. ish and we still had not been seen. Around 1:30-2:00 a.m. the doctor finally came and and checked her out well when he laid her down and looked in her throat and it was all swollen and bumpy and her tummy had a rash on it that we had just though was kind of a diaper rash. Turns out she had hand, foot and mouth virus and an infection in her left ear. So the doctor had to of course go and call her doctor and get her some medicine etc. about 3:00 a.m. Sadie finally falls asleep and the nurse comes in with the medicine so of course I had to wake her up and she was MAD. Well, around 4:30 a.m. we were finally discharged and Sadie slept all the way home.

Saturday:
So we missed swimming lessons since we were in the ER all night and Sadie was not well enough to go anyway. Poor baby was just so miserable. My mom came over around 9:30 a.m. which was just when Sadie happened to get up. I rolled out of bed around 10:00 a.m. and got a shower and ready to go out since we had some things to do.

My mom and I stopped at McDonalds and grabbed Sadie some lunch and then headed over to Wal-Mart to meet up with Steph for lunch. Sadie was in great spirits and I never would have known she was sick at all. Well, we ate at subway and it was delicious of course. I did my shopping and Sadie began to get progressively more cranky. She eventually was just over it. She even lost her new shoes in the store :(

So my mom and I took off to get her medicine and then head home and she was just bad by this time. So my mom and I took turns rocking and consoling her and she just would not go to sleep.

So we gave her a Popsicle outside and she seemed to be okay and was running around again.

So that night Steve and I had already told a friend we would come over for a little bbq so we decided we would still go since my mom had Sadie and she seemed to be doing good. So when my mom got home she said Sadie went right to bed with no problems.

Sunday:
We all stayed home and hung out around the house. Steve's parents stopped by and by this time Steve was not feeling well. So we decided to order out since we were all just like blah and didn't want to deal with cooking. So we decided to order Buffalo Wild Wings and the fun began. So we placed our order: one rib combo with fries, 24 boneless wings with the sauce on the side and an order of wedges. So my sickly husband drove up to the restaurant and we brought the food back home. Well, apparently they misunderstood Steve because the wings were doused in sauce and the wedges were in the combo and fries were on the side! So my father-in-law touched all of the wedges so Steve and I didn't want any after that. So Steve got mad and just said he would cook himself something at home. I was like NO! I am not wasting $17 on all these wings to just toss them. So we called the store and the manager was rude about replacing everything! He kept asking me who took the order and did they read the order back to us?!?! Like we remember! So he said he would replace the wings but no more wedges! Give me a break. So we go back up there and as we are leaving my father-in-law has Sadie on the couch and is letting her pull down the blinds! Steve was so mad! So we get to Buffalo Wild Wings and they don't have the food ready or anything so I have to wait and wait but then they gave us a $5 off coupon for our next visit so whatever.

So for the rest of the night we just lounged around and relaxed.

Monday:
So I stayed home from work with Sadie since I was still a bit worried about the little lamb. I worked from home for awhile so it worked to my advantage. Sadie was up at 6:00 a.m. so that was brutal. I ran up to Kmart to get Sadie some new shoes since she didn't have any and they ended up having some cute ones. Sadie ended up going back down for her nap after I grabbed lunch from Chipotle around 11:30 a.m. So while Sadie slept I cleaned more and worked more so it worked out great.
Steve came home from his side job and left right away to go to the urgent care clinic while I took Sadie to her pediatrician. The doctor looked at her and said she looks better but to keep up with the amoxicilin they gave us at the ER since her ear was still a bit infected. He said she was good to go back to day care since she was not running a fever and her throat looked good. So for dinner we ordered Dan Good Pizza again and it was as delicious as ever. We all retired early for a good nights sleep.
