Monday, Monday

I can't believe it's Monday already. The weekend flew by. Saturday morning wasn't the greatest because Andrew was cranky and I was ill. I had no help since Clayton was sleeping. Gotta love 3rd shift work. Andrew cut his nap short, thereby cutting MY nap short. He didn't want what I made him for lunch. He wanted my Kool-Aid pouch and chips. I finally got him to eat part of his pb&j and then shared the Kool-Aid and chips. After a couple more hours of agonizing crankiness/illness, we left for the pool. A friend from church and I had arranged the week before to take our kidlets to the pool she's a member of. What a blessing that was! Apparently all Andrew and I needed was to get out of the house to improve our moods. We came home happy. I walked in the door to the announcement that I only had about 45 minutes to take a shower and get dressed. WHAT?! Turns out that BIL and his wife decided to invite themselves over for supper. Fortunately, they were providing supper. I can handle that. We get along well and since they were bringing the food it made it all that much better. I ended up crashing when I put Andrew to bed. Company still there and everything. Oops.

Last night was interesting. We had a substitute preacher since ours is on vacation. Let's just say that it could have gotten really bad had anyone at our table made eye contact with another. I just about had to walk out anyway to keep from laughing out loud. We were all SO bored. I hate to say that about church, but in this case, it was so true. Ended up going out to eat at Fire Mountain grill (owned by Ryan's Steakhouse) after the service. My new friend from church joined us. We had a great time.

I really hate being used to sleeping by myself. It makes the two nights Clayton is home difficult sometimes. Don't get me wrong, I love it when he is home, but having to share the bed again is not always easy. Last night was one of those tough nights. My brain just would not shut down. I tossed and turned until 3:30 when Clayton finally decided to go to the living room. If I wasn't tossing and turning, I was having weird dreams. Hopefully tonight will be better.
