Random Happenings

So there's been alot of little things happening, so I thought I would tell about them. First of all, if you can't tell from my new background, I am WAY Excited for Eclipse to come out on the 30th!! I'm not going opening night but me and my friend Jackie are going a couple days after. I'm just glad I found someone here who likes it as much as I do!! :)

Last friday night me and Jackie stopped at a gas station to fill up the car, it was night and there were two cop cars there testing a guy for drunk driving. We were both watching when these two guys walked in front of us and they kept looking back at us. I said "Jackie those guys are totally checking us out." She looks and was like "Uh, no they're checking you out." Now these boys couldn't have been older than 18 or 19, and the one who kept looking back had an afro with a purple pick in it. LOL He waved at me when he saw me look at him so I did the nice thing and waved back. Jackie was like "Don't make them come over here." Me, "They're not ganna come over they're getting in there car." So we get in the car to leave and they drove past us and blew a kiss. LOL It was Hilarious!!! It's nice to get flirted with once in a while, even when it's a gas station afro man!!

On saturday a lady in the branch was having an all day party/carnival at her house. Me and Jackie went later in the day, when we were driving there it started to pour rain!! We were about ready to turn around and head back when it started to clear up, with the rain it took us an hour and a half to get there. By the time we got there they had already done all the games and were just kinda hanging out. We didn't know what to do, so we just sat there and talked. It was so Humid that day, it was Rediculously Hot!!! We got some cotton candy and it started to melt because of the humidity. I couldn't even enjoy my cotton candy because stinken humidity ruined it. I will not miss that when I go home!! Later that night they had fireworks, some people started playing with roman candles and it scared me a little when they were being pointed at people. I just got out of the way.

Last friday while Roy, my boss, was coming home he hit a big pot hole and popped two of his tires and cracked the rims. They took it in and had to wait while new rims were ordered. The car was finally ready by tuesday night, but that meant that they both stayed home monday and tuesday. I don't like watching the kids when they're both there because the kids never know who to ask for something. Or if I say no to something they will go ask someone else, it's just difficult. Thankfully the car is all fixed up, hopefully nothing else goes wrong.

So Sebastian may only be one, but lately he has been having the terrible two's!! He has discovered screaming lately and now that is ALL he does!! And let me tell ya, he can scream LOUD!!! He kicks, bites, hits, scratches, throws toys at your head, pulls everything he can reach onto the floor, throws food everywhere, and my all time favorite whenever I say no he throws himself onto the floor and just cries forever. *Sigh* Sometimes I feel like throwing myself on the floor and just cry. Lately when Kristin has been getting home from work, Sebastian won't go to her. If she picks him up he'll just scream and reach for me. It makes Kristin sad but you know, what does she expect when I'm the one who's with him all day!! And it is sad, I hate to hear him cry but I can't just hold him all night. I just go down to my room and listen to him cry until he decides he's over it.

So since I'm going home soon, they have been looking for a new nanny. She interviewed a girl last week but she didn't seem to impressed. When I asked her how it went she said that the girl seemed nice and everything but she just doesn't know. And when she called her referance they said that she was good but she doesn't pick up after herself or the kids. Kristin didn't care for that. She has another interview with another local girl this friday. Hopefully it goes well. With all this happening it's making it more real that I'm almost done here. It's hitting me that I'll be leaving and I'm realizing how much I'm going to miss these kids and all my friends. The other night I was in bed thinking about it and I started to cry. Kristin said I can change my mind and stay. :) It's nice to know that I'll be missed also but I know I can't stay here forever and that it's time for me to go back home. The kids have been asking me when I will come back and see them. I said I don't know because plane tickets are so stinken expensive, so Andrew said "Well then why don't you just drive here?" LOL Well that's also really expensive and long!! They don't understand the whole distance thing. But I really do want to try and come back and visit some day. I told them that I'll be here all summer so we're just going to have as much fun as we can!!

Well I think I've babbled on long enough, sorry if it bored you!! :)
