Today was a crazy day. It started off with the bus not coming to pick up Samuel. I called the bus company and they said that because of the frigid temperatures (-1*) several buses didn't start. Sam's bus didn't start. We had to take Sam to school which also requires taking Nicholas to school. I can't get back home in time to get him on the bus. Finally, we get home about 9am and the mayhem ensued.
Lilly was in rare form today. She had at least 2 meltdowns maybe 4, depends on your definition of "meltdown". No, she had 5 meltdowns today. Everytime she didn't get her way she threw a screaming hissy fit. Screeched, screamed, cried, kicked, .flailed, you name it, she did it. She didn't take a nap. Me and grumpy don't get along. Maybe it was the static electricity? Hmmm. The kid was a walking ball of static electricity. I could feel it radiating off her body. I rubbed her down with lotion and baby oil. It seemed to work. Oh, she said the CUTEST thing this morning. When I got her up, we went though our usual routine talking about where everyone was. Daddy? he's at work. Sammy? he's on his way to school (or so I thought) Then we hear this thudding rushing sound and Lilly says, "Oh NO, Tuna!!" Bless her heart and bless his heart too.
Today was Tuna's first day back at school without his cast. He seems to have survived. He was upset that he couldn't participate in PE.
I worked on my grad school application today. My resume is now tweeked so I can send it to my professors so they can write a letter of recommendation.
I received a job offer. I was offered the part time position with Hendren and Andre, it is contigent on an interview with the managing partner. I am hopeful and I feel good about it. I am sure he just wants to make sure that I am not a quack. I can't possible put my feelings into words. I had resigned myself to another disappointing rejection. I am scared, nervous, excited, hopeful, did I mention scared? Lilly has to go to daycare part time. Will she be OK? Will she be mad at me that I won't be home for her anymore? Will she be scared? Will she be nervous? Oh my.
Funny conversation with Sam. I asked, "Who did you have lunch with today?" His response, "Nathaniel, Nick, the Democrats, Matthew,....." I am beginning to think this kid is more conservative than I am. I didn't think that was even possible. He is such a good little Republican in the making. He will serve this country well, someday. I am so proud of him.
