Weekend of head aches!

My camera decided to finally die this weekend so I’m missing a LOT of the picture moments I would normally take.  So I had to use a camera my mom gave Cole to use (which mind you he wasn’t happy to share) and it works on batteries … UGH you know how hard it is to find batteries in this house! 

When I downloaded the little pic’s I had I found these pics .

Saturday after I worked we hit Lowe’s for the kids clinic it was a BUSY day at work, it was GREAT I had a good amount to schedule which I haven’t had in a while.  So we were late to Lowe’s and all the tables were gone and sitting on the ground with the boys and hammers so NOT my idea of good times.

So off to the gym we went and then I had a hair to head to Value Village next door.  They were having 50% their yellow tags AND they let me use my 20% off coupon for donating.  So I got all this for $34! WHOO HOO!  Clothes for the boys, a toy, a skateboard and 3 bibles & a cookbook.  Cole was wanting a bible for school and I wanted one to read for night time.

Then Sunday our church had a BBQ which I made these brownies for the POTLUCK.  Ok people when you go to a potluck that means you BRING a dish and you only take a little of each dish.  Why is it that people show up with NOTHING but they dish up like no tomorrow.  I cut up my brownies and before I could plate them the vultures attacked me (I barely was able to get one for the boys).  It amazed me that some took two for themselves (before anyone could get one) and then one guy actually had the gaul to say he wanted a big one NOT the small one I put on his plate .. UGH.

Then we headed to my friends house to let the boys run it out (sorry no pics camera not working).  Then my mom wanted us to come up to her house for dinner.  I looked at my gas tank light come on, still with no debt card I thought I’d run into safeway to buy a Visa GC with my check so I can then buy gas.  The lady for 10 min couldn’t figure out how to ring it up, then she couldn’t get my check to work so a supervisor came over, which made everyone behind me SIGH.

Then she took me over to CS to try & write a check there and then told me my check was declined that I was over my limit of checks per day … yup my 1st check of the day & the first visit at this store in 3 months!  Yup 20 min and boys going NUTS and me almost in tears.  Had to call my daddy to come save me since I had no access to my $ and no gas to get home! UGH

Finally an hour later (and hour late to dinner) we got to my parents and had a quick dinner before the rain came down .  I was still a little upset but it was a nice dinner and I’m happy to be done and hoping to finally get our debit cards and THEN switch banks!

Happy Wednesday everyone!

Weekend Wrap Wednesday ~ Plus a Birthday Update

First off .... Check out my birthday giveaway it will be for 2 weeks!!! Lot's of amazing things for you to celebrate my birthday ... Yup you know it, I'm cool like that ... LOL.

Happy Birthday to Me! My Gift to my readers GIVEAWAY!!!

A pretty slow weekend, I did run out Saturday morning after working (5am - 10:30am) down the street to get a pedicure. Yes it was meet with a nice response from DH, who I let sleep in until 10:45 when I wanted to leave. Guess he was not so happy I wasn't giving him warning? WTF??? So instead of what I usually do and just stay home I left! Yup I actually thought of myself and took some me time! But of course I didn't have an apt and had to wait a little bit and that made DH even happier. So of course I ran out with toes still wet, no shoes an no cute flower on my toe :(. Got home to the grumpy boy so he could leave for work. The boys and I sat home Saturday and did nothing and YES I almost lost my mind! Thankfully my parents took pity on me and took me and the two boys to a Mexican Restaurant. Yes I know you read that correct we took the boys to a restaurant we're I pulled out EVEN more hair! I know it was nuts trying to get them to sit down! Yup that was my relaxing .. LOL Saturday

Sunday am I worked to 2am (started at midnight) and of course the boys decided to get up at 8:30am. Caden he thought I was a pony jumped on and started hoping on me! Yup time to get up. Instead of hanging out at home again I got everyone dressed and went to the zoo. Of course couldn't find my camera thought it was at work. So I stop by work, go in the door and enter my alarm code and guess what it doesn't work! WTF??? Thankfully I knew the emergency one that stopped the ear piercing noise. Called the principal and he said oh yeah I messed up a few numbers, talk about giving a girl a heart attack! Then I can't even find my camera! UGH, so I borrow a camera and off to the zoo we go. Guess what just my luck batteries DEAD in the camera ... LOL. We walk around for 2 1/2 hours and time to leave. I still don't want to go home so I call my friend Christina and off to her house with her 4 kids we go.

After that mom calls and over to her house we went where I had a lovely glass of wine, got to read my book and had a GREAT dinner. Yup pictures of that are on a camera I can't find .. LOL. I'll post them as soon as I can!
