I called into work today. On Saturday I must have pulled a muscle in my neck while sleeping. Dave had to help me get out of bed Saturday and Sunday morning. I thought I was feeling better by Sunday night, but during the night I could NOT lift my head up, I had to wake Dave up at one point to move Addison over, I just couldn't do it. I rolled myself out of bed at 5:00am to wash my hair and the pain that went through me as I had my head bent over was just terrible. I knew I couldn't go to work like that, how could I drive? I could hardly turn my head sideways. I woke Dave up at 6:30am and told him that he had to take McKenna to school because I was just too afraid to drive. Not to mention the killer headache I all of a sudden had to get this morning. I took 2 aspirins and waited and waited and nothing was happening so two hours later I took 2 more aspirins and the headache finally went away. My neck is feeling better and I know that I will have to go to work tomorrow whether I like it or not. I really do hate calling into work, I really do. I know they count on you to be there and besides, what I don't use for my personal time they pay me for it in January, so by the end of October I will have 2 of my 5 days spent. Oh well, I'm there 99.9% of the time anyway, what is one day? Like Dave said "You have to take care of yourself, your job won't", but it still doesn't make for the guilty feeling to go away.
Saturday Dave and I took McKenna to the library because they had a scavengar hunt there for the kids and it was fun doing that and she enjoyed it. When she completed it they gave her a pencil and a bookmarker for doing it. We took Addison, also and it was kind of funny because one little boy told me that Addison is a cute little girl. I was just kind of taken back because another child told me that and it was a boy. It was sweet of him to say that. His mom is doing a great job with him.
44 days before we leave for Disney World, now we have to pay for it (Yuck!) Addison's first trip on the airplane. I hope she's ok with it. I'm kind of getting excited for it because it's going to be my last trip there for a while. I did tell mom that the next time we go I want it to be just my girls and me. I have to call AAA to pay for our trip because you have to pay the balance within 45 days of your trip and noone has called me to do that. I don't want to lose out on my reservations.
My oldest daughter this morning said to me "Now I have to worry about you today while I'm at school" and I told her that she does not have to worry about me, that I'll be ok. She is such a mother hen and she has a heart of gold. God loves her and so do I. Oh, yes, I get angry with her, but my love for her (and her sister) grow more and more each day. I love being a mother.
Well, that's it for now. I just have to download my one picture per entry now.
