~8-30-04~What a weekend!!

well, i didn't get to post on friday cause among doing last minute stuff for clay's party saturday, our cable went out which meant no internet!!!! which not only sucked cause i had no background noise going on, but one of the recipes that i wanted to make that night, so i didn't have yet another thing to do saturday morning, was online!!!! and i could not get it!!!! i was pissed!!!! just to add to the already angry jennifer!!

bob went to get food after i put clay to sleep. we were going to bust butt and do all the cleaning and stuff so we didn't have to rush around saturday and do it. so we were watching the olympics eating, and i look over, and he is in the process of putting food in his mouth, while his eyes are rolling back in his head and closing. i'm like, "WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!?!" his eyes snapped open. "i'm falling asleep".

so i am freaked cause i think he is about to have a seizure. yes, he has the epilepsy, and NO he doesn't take his medicine. WHY?!?! i have no fucking clue. ask him, that is one of our major fights. so i'm all stressed about that. having witnessed one, and been with him through 2, i did not want to spend all freaking night in the hospital again!! plus clay's party was saturday and i had a ton of shit to do. to his defense, he did work a double to day before, so he was tired. but still damn it. we should have done shit earlier in the week. he didn't have time to go fishing all damn day/night on wednesday!! so i told him to take his damn medicine and go to bed.

so he went. so since i couldn't get the recipes i needed, i attempted to put on those slip covers i showed you all that i won on ebay. talk about a pain in my ass!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i semi measured like i was supposed to, to make sure they fit, but i could hardly get the bastards to fit! and then getting them all tucked in was a mother fucker!!!!!! my wrists were killing me, not to mention that my cat was in heaven thinking i was playing with him, so he is all attacking my hands/arms the whole time i am trying to acomplish the whole tuck, tuck, tuck thing! AGH!!!!

i waited til about 3, and the cable never came back, so i just went to bed.

clay was up bright and early. i kept hitting bob telling him to get up and get clay his breakfast, so i could sleep for another hour. of course he piddle pissed around before finally getting up, so by that point, i was UP, so i might as well actually start getting shit done. especially since we had a lot to do before clay's nap at 1. we actually got pretty much done. and all looked good. it is just the last minute rushing around that drives my nuts!! i didn't even get in the shower til a quarter til 5 and the party started at 5!! i did awesome though. i was showered, dressed, and even put makeup on by 5:08!! don't ask how, i am not sure, and am sure it will never happen again.......at least until next year for clay's 3rd birthday party. i vow that one year i will actually NOT be in the shower when my guests arrive!

oh well, the party went great! clay was great! he got a lot of great stuff! it was a good day. and my mom being who she is, had everything cleaned up and put away before she left. even though it rained early in the day, it cleared up for the party. i don't know why anyone was outside though it was so frickin hot and humid! right before we did the cake (outside) it started to thunder, and we got finished right in time to get everything and everyone inside before it stormed again. i, of course, will have some pictures up soon.

this birthday was much more enjoyable than last year. he actually kind of knows what is going on and enjoys it. he made such cute noises when he seen his gifts. he was all "OOOOHHHH" it was so darn cute!! then of course he didn't know which ones to play with first, so we had them all opened up and he went from gift to gift, playing with each of them for a bit. too cute! i can't wait for christmas! well, actually i can, cause we have no more room for junk! but i just can't wait to see his reaction to everything.

that is one of the best things about motherhood. to see the expressions on your kids faces. to see them learning new things, and experiencing things. it touches your heart so deeply! it is great! i know i said it before, but i can't even imagine my life without him in it! i also don't see how i was so "complete and happy" without him!

today actually went pretty fast. i think it is cause he had so many new things to play with he wasn't all over me. we had a pretty great weekend here. i hope you all did as well!
