Oh Monday...how I missed thee!

Yes, for the first time in blog history you seen that right! I am so glad its monday!!!

What a weekend! oy!

So Saturday at midnight (think friday night overnight) our house dropped in price for the start of the new year. We are now and will be listed for now until June at 134,500! Well the ink hadnt dried yet and we had our first showing booked for Saturday at 1:00. Ok so rewind a bit. First Brian had decided spur the moment that he was going to take Christopher to the Monster Jam truck show at the Dome Saturday night. We found out they were sold out and people were scalping the tickets badly on Craigslist and Ebay. So I made and ad on craigslist asking for some at a resonable price and within an hour we got a call from a man who said he had 2 tickets in the 100s section and row 7. (frikkin amazing seats) he wanted 100 for the pair and brian talked him into 50. They agreed to meet in Jasper (35 mins north) and do a pickup there. Well Brian packs the kids up in the freezing cold and drives out there only to be stood up and the guy never even answered his phone again. What a dirty s.o.b! >:(
Anyhow on Brians drive back (and while I am blissfully unaware of the drama unfolding at the Gym) he gets a call from our realtor that someone wants to see the house. So he rushes home to start working on it. (and with Christopher still blissfully unaware as to what he missed by the dirtbag since we knew better than to say anything til tickets were in hand). Well my mom and I were suppossed to go to a Jewelry Party at 2:00 (that my mom remembered to ask me if I wanted to go the day before the event, *sigh*), well she calls my phone (that Brian had) and lets him know its at 1:00 and not 2:00! Luckily he gets home and I am already there with a bad headache and can help him clean the house up instead of showering and getting ready for the party. So we finally finish just at 1:00. He takes the kids to lunch at McDonalds and I meet my mom (late) to go to the party. (Still in my gym clothes! ick!) Brian gets home at 2:20 and is just in the door with the kids when the door bell rings and its the realtor late! Poor Brian! So he has to leave again.
Anyhow the showing was great, they were here for 30 minutes which is a huge showing and I am happy. The party was fun (turns out we were early since the party was at 2:00 afterall) and so fun I am having one myself on the 31st of this month! :) Yay! So that was Saturday!
Sunday we got up and went to my moms to get Joey and see david off. Well turns out he had asked if he could live with us for a week or so. But I wanted to help David by offering a place to stay for a Month were he could catch up on his bills and have a nice normal life away from all the nonsence here at our house and I could help with Brian to guide him into adulthood, since he has no idea what being an adult is. I say that just because someone is old enough to be recognized as an adult does NOT mean that they are one. But after some odd conversation and what seemed like pulling a tooth, David made it quite clear to me that he is not able to be helped by me. I sucked up my dignity and gave him back the grocery money and wished him well. I have no clue if he is at my moms house and honestly after the things I came to realize yesterday quite frankly could care less. I am not my mom's bouncer and I am done being a doormat for people. My feelings are done being trampled and I am shocked to see some of the things I seen. So shocked I am embarassed to even put them here in my safe place. I will keep them safer...in my heart. :(
Anyhow Joey is with us and we love having him. Brian is taking him to school right now. Christopher is having some bad phlegm issues today so I kept him home for safe measures. But tomorrow its back to school no matter what. Laci has to get back on a nap schedual today since she didnt take one all weekend, and tonight I am working out again! All the stress form yesterday sent me into my monthly a whole week early which is very upsetting to me. But at least it will be over! :) My mom is in Vegas til wednesday I think, honestly I have no clue and we will have Joey til Wednesday morning.
Well I am off to check my email and catch up online before starting my day! Who knows, maybe I will have another showing today! :)

Hope you all have a wonderful day!
love to you all!
Robin

Also Grandma and Grandpa I have tried to call a few times but seem to always miss you. I have been worried about you both. I will call again today during Laci's nap. I love you!

Hi Granddaughter, That blog was just tooooo much to digest this Monday morning. For once in my life, I find myself speechless! Our phone rings busy most of the time, we're having computer problems and have to use the landline phone a lot. We took a chance and drove to Cocoa Beach ( Patrick Air Force base) to pick up all of Grandpas meds for 3 months. He did fine on the 80 min. trip, but he bleed Fri. night and all of Sat.He stayed in Sat. I forced water and kept his blood pressure checked. I'm getting him up now for a shower, a light breakfast, and he goes for a cystoscope at 10:45. I'll try to call later and get caught up.
I Love you...keep up the gym!
(((LOVE,GRANDMA)))
