I'm not sure what all we did on Friday but at night Joe went to a meeting at church and I stayed home with Nate. He still wasn't feeling the best and I didn't want to leave him with anyone. (We also didn't have anyone to watch him.) The meeting lasted much longer that we planned. Once he got home, we headed to Monroe to spend the night. We got there close to 10pm. Nate fell asleep on the way there and stayed asleep once we arrived. Me, Mom, & Joe stayed up and had chips, salsa, & guacamole! Next morning was City Wide Sales in MC. Mom & I went to a couple. I got a serger for $10. No clue what it is or does but I'm super excited to figure it out! I also got some fabric & scraps for a few dollars. Made a super quick trip back to Hannibal to get medicine and a mower. Then made a trip to the Debonair's yardsale and the KC hall. There I got a movie for $1 (Without a Paddle -- super funny) and 2 old style sewing tables with the machines inside for $5 total!!!
We went to Columbia to see Natalie's play "Goldilocks." It was really good but very hard to hear. It was also Luke's 15th birthday party and Andrew was home for the week. I gave them all their towel and they loved them! We had a really good party. After we left there we stopped at my nephew's apartment. His roommates 2 oldest kids (ages 5 & 7) asked if I was going to make them each a towel. They're now on my list. We spent the night at mom and dad's again and went to church with them. My cousin's son received his 1st Communion. I got a card for him but I got a confirmation card instead. Oh well. After church we went to Mike & Cindy's house for another party. Mike & Pat received their 1st Communion on Easter Sunday. It was also for Ava's 4th birthday. I gave Bre her towel and she loved it! We were there for quite some time. Nate had fun playing and Joe & I jumped on the trampoline with Nate. Joe also played some basketball with the boys. I have never known him to play!!
And now for today. Nate & I started cleaning the basement room. This will be my new sewing room & I'm totally psyched!! We had Speech Therapy at 1pm and then went to the park for a picnic lunch and to play ball with Nate. Nate did NOT have fun. He screamed most of the time so we left after about 10 minutes. Well he did have fun for a few minutes but that was it. We came home. Nate & I played in the backyard for awhile and Joe came inside. We got popsicles and ate them on the porch. I was so tired and I tried to sleep on the porch swing but I didn't as I had Nate with me & Joe went to the store. He got a 1st Communion card for my cousin's son. At least one of us can read. Work was ok but I was pretty bummed. I've been slowly gaining some weight back. Not much but I can feel it. Today on break I walked 2 laps around the parking lot. I did this last summer on my breaks and I'm going to start doing it again. I also need to start going to the YMCA since we have a membership now.
I started to read last night but I was so pooped that I feel asleep before I even got the book open. I hope I can get more read. I've had the book for a couple months and must get it done by Thursday. The owner will be coming over and I'm not gonna keep it any longer. Oh, and Friday I dropped my Stir Crazy popcorn popper lid and broke it. I was so sad. I'm still sad but I found one in the rental house. It's so dirty but I'll get it cleaned up.
I'm thankful for my family. No matter hard life is, they are always there to help out in times of need. This isn't directed to anyone in particular or any specific occasion, but I know you are all there when/if we need you. I love you all dearly!!!
