Hello everyone…..how are you all doing?
Well, we went to talk with my worker yesterday. We had an 8am appointment, so we get there a little after because of traffic. We sign in and everything and we are the first people there, no problem. We wait around and get told, “your worker isn’t here today, do you mind waiting until 8:30 to see another lady?” I said “no, it’s no problem.” At 8:45am the other lady comes out, and says “what are you here for?” I said “I have an appointment with my worker for our food stamps review.” She says “well, I don’t see anything on her schedule for you for today.” I said “well, she sent me this letter in the mail” which I pull out at that time and read the time and date to her. She looks at it, looks at the sign in sheet and says “your appointment was yesterday morning.” I said “it was?” She said “yeah, today is the 31st, your appointment was for the 30th.” At this point, I am just hoping that she will see us or someone will so it wasn’t a wasted trip. She asked me again what it was for and I told her, and I handed her my paperwork. She goes “oh, it is just for food stamps, I can take you” and takes us to her little cubicle just inside the door. She puts the stuff down, and then walks away. At that point, I was getting antsy because Brandon woke up on the wrong side of his crib yesterday morning, so he was in grouchland. She comes back looks over all the paperwork, makes a couple copies and then says “okay, you are all taken care of. If she needs anything more from you, I am sure that she will call you.” And we left.
Then we went and helped his mom and dad move some of their stuff. I did not help carry anything. Most of the time I was chasing Brandon, the rest of the time, I was putting away things in their cupboards for them. They ordered pizza, we ate, then split to come back home. I think I was on my feet too much because my back and feet were both aching. I sat for about an hour or two with my feet up after I got Brandon to sleep, and then jumped in the shower to run some warm water on my back.
We think Brandon is going to be cutting more of his teeth. The past three days we have changed countless poopy diapers on him! At first I thought it was the little bite of egg salad I gave him, but going from the nasty face he made, it wasn’t that. When we were laying on the bed when we got home, we both noticed a couple bumps about to poke through on the top. Plus, he has been biting on EVERYTHING! He will chew on his hands, his rubber duckies, his books, anything!
sorry to make this yet another me post, but I am just worn out and my bed is calling me. Actually, I think I have to go wake Tommy up....I think he fell asleep out in the living room.
