What a day.

I'm trying to get back in the swing of blogging every night. We'll see how I do. Nate was warm when I first held him this morning. Laura then called to tell me that Logan now has strep throat. It started with him having a fever. Well we didn't measure his temperature, mainly because I never remember too. He took a shower fine without screaming but noticed he didn't eat much breakfast. He wanted juice all day!

We worked on the rental house for a little bit. (When I say "we", I mean Joe worked on it while Nate & I looked around.) Joe pulled up most of the carpet in the house and now the nasty smell is coming back. It's so gross. Nate & I took a break to go to Speech Therapy & he did so good today! He said "open!!!" It took him a couple times but he got it!! Later on in the day he said "Juice please" and "please mom." Now of course the words didn't come out clear like that but I knew exactly what he said!! It's awesome!!!



After therapy we came back and Dad put Nate on the riding mower with him. Nate usually loves it but not so much today. He cried and got a sad puppy face so I had to get him off. We came home and made lunch (turns out we just made strawberry shortcakes but Nate didn't eat anything) and then Laura and the boys stopped by. Her & I went to the rental house to see what crafty stuff will be worth saving to sell in a big yard sale. There's so much stuff left in that house and we're just gonna sell as much as we can and then get rid of the rest! If you are or know someone that wants to do crafty things, come to our yard sale in the summer!!!

Once she left I made pork burgers for lunch. I had all the good stuff to add to it: cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, ketchup, mustard. It was very good!!! Nate had a tiny burger but didn't eat it. Whoops, it was good too!!! I did get a little bit of sewing in today. I mended 2 pair of jeans. It's not much but it was nice to be at the machine. And I didn't break any needles either!!

Work was pretty boring; slow but that's aiight. While at work, I found that Nate threw up. Poor little guy. Charlene & I left early as it was super slow. I dropped her off and home and then up the hill I went to come home. Or so I thought. I got almost to the top and the car won't go anymore. I push the gas and it doesn't do anything. I coasted down the hill while calling Ford. I got to the very bottom and he takes over the wheel. He got it going on the 2nd try. Up the hill and around the block he goes.



I get in the car again and start up the hill. Same thing but this time I stop at the top of the hill and call him. He & Brian come to my rescue. Ford gets in the car and goes the rest of the way up the hill and around the block and parks it in his driveway. I go with Brian in the truck back to the house. We all go inside and I get dinner. Brat, mac n cheese, and salad (very good by the way.) Ford went to check my car and then came back upstairs and told me that I could either try to make it home and leave my car stranded wherever it stopped, or I could just get a ride from him and leave my car in the driveway. I chose option B and made it home ok.

Joe got a brat when I got home. I've been blogging and chatting with my peeps (as Joe calls them). Now he wants strawberry shortcake so I better end this.

I'm thankful for Ford, Brian, & Charlene for helping me out with my car situation. Thanks guys!!
