Happier post, Quilt

Lil M in her carseat...with pigtails, of course! LOL

Here's the first thing I've sewn since Mia's been home. Yeah, that's right... 10 months without quilting! OMG. I finished this little baby quilt that was supposed to be for a friend's son (who is like 5 years old now)... and am thinking maybe I should keep it... but am feeling kind of guilty. I just haven't taken the time to make her one from scratch yet. But I will!!




Peace.

Daycare, ugh

I'm aggravated. I went to pick Lil M up at daycare today, and some woman and I had words. I've never in my life had someone act like she did to me. And I'll likely get us kicked out of daycare, 'cause I called her a Bitch.

Here's what happened. I was going downstairs to pick up my daughter. I stood on the right of the hallway, which is small. This woman comes up the stairs and says she's going the direction I came from (I assumed she meant out, but she meant to the room behind me.) So, when I didn't move, she said "well, alright, if you want to be in the way". IN THE WAY?? WTF? I wasn't trying to be in the way. I actually, was as close to the wall as I could be to be OUT of her way. So, I said... as I was walking downstairs... ok... if you want to be a bitch.

She came around the corner and got really witchy with me. Alrighty then. Great. So, I go in to get Lil M. Se la vie, right? Wrong.

I got upstairs and this woman PUSHES me in the ARM!!! OMG. She touched me! Then she got about 1" from my face and was beligerent... can you say.. Postpartum?!! Then she said I better watch out. ... from what? I said... I'm not afraid of you, and she said I should be!!! (then, she agreed when I asked if that was a threat.) OMG.

When I left I called the DC back and apologized to the girl in the office for making a scene. I have never in my entire life had words with anyone like that before. I swear to God, she's psycho... or she was a bully in school or something. Thank God her kids aren't in Mia's class.

I'm wondering if she was such a witch because I was way smaller than her... maybe she thought I was really young or something. Regardless, she can kiss my ass. Really. I didn't mean to cause a ruckus. I was trying to get out of her way, and then she had to be rude.

So. I probably just got us kicked out of daycare. F'ing Great. And, now I'm super cranky.

End rant.

border collie

So, I took that dogster quiz again... 'cause my friend Ellen thought maybe since I had been having a tough week, maybe that's why I was a German Shepherd!!! LOL.

This time it says I'm a Border Collie. :)

Border Collie

The Achiever

You've heard about this "second-place ribbon" thing, but really don’t ever plan on getting one. Not a chance. Highly competitive, you keep one eye on the Best in Show prize and one on the rest of the pack, making sure you're always at least one paw ahead. You love your family and enjoy the company you keep, but you'd trade all of them in a heartbeat for a corner office and some meaty stock options. When you're not licking your professional coat, naked skydiving and triathlons keep you entertained. You idolize the top dog and will do so until you sniff out a way to take over the company and do a little "restructuring."

Peace.

Words

Lil M's new words today:

Hello (ok, yesterday) - mimicking Mommy talking on the phone, handing me her phone back and forth so I'll say it too!
Mommaw (she was looking at a picture, and I said it)
Scott (cot... couldn't quite get the S yet. lol)
More

She can also say:

book
baby
mommy
mimi
juice
dog-dog
shhhhh
yeah
No! (means yes)
shoe
nose
dada and daddy - but she's been calling her teddy bears daddy. lol

She calls Me, Mindy, Chase,... practically everyone, Mommy. But, of course she knows it's me. I think she's trying to identify words to things... like daddy, too. lol

We didn't have a good day at court today for Mindy. It sucks. But, I believe justice will prevail. Please pray for her and this awful crap she's going through. We love you Chase, and are not giving up!!!

Peace.
