Trying to get on the road Friday was a major feat! As we were getting packed to go out the door, Ms. Divine informed me that she had taken her last puff from her inhaler. So, I had to make a quick call to the pharmacy to get a refill. Jr. was lagging behind, as usual. We FINALLY got packed up and to the Animal Wellness Care facility to board Max. Then I had to stand around and wait about a half hour as they called our vet services to make sure he had all of his shots. Apparently the paperwork wasn't clear enough for them! I kept telling them that our vet said that Max was all up to date! But they got it straightened out to their satisfaction and we got out of there. Next stop was a the city building to pay the utility bills then around the corner to the pharmacy...where I noticed the power steering was going out. I called Troy...who was in Cleveland...and told him. He has our mechanic, Andy's, number on his phone so he called Andy while I picked up Ms. Divine's inhaler. Andy wanted me to bring the van in...it was kinda on the way so I did. And he told me what I had thought...the power steering pump was going. So, he put it up on the rack and within two hours we were back on the road. All in all, we were about 4 hours behind. At least the rest of the weekend went smoothly.
It is always fun when we can all be together and joke around. We had plenty of laughs over the weekend!
Then Monday night, Jr. informs me that he is going to a prom with a girl that he is friends with...someone that his bf Steven has known for years. And that he, this girl and Steven are double dating cuz Steven has a girl he wants to go to prom with. The prom is in less than 2 weeks...so I scramble the next day to find a place for Jr. to get a tux for the event. Tuxes don't look like when I went to prom. No more frilly shirts...which is good...but they wear these tie things instead of the bow ties. Jr. has an all black tux with a textured black vest and a black tie with some pink stripes...his date's dress is mostly black with some pink accents.
Yesterday I ordered the corsage. So the only thing left to do is sit back and wait. He has to clean out his car and give it a good wash...they decided they all want to go in his car becuz his date really likes it. Better than Steven's big ol' truck, I guess. LOL
Ms. Divine had to go to the doctor's again yesterday. She was vomiting night and morning...and it was another nasty sinus infection. They fussed over her breathing...becuz of the inhaler. That seems to be okay for now, still. They emphasized to her about how important it is for her to use her allergy meds right now so she isn't gasping for air later. I hope she gets it!
This is the weekend that we have the girls from the Mount Vernon College Women's Choir spending the night. The next weekend is the prom for Jr....the NEXT weekend is the church's first softball game (Jr. is playing), the Relay for Life (Bethany is on a team), and the annual community garage sale. The weekend after that SEEMS to be unemcumbered but then the following Saturday I am attending the Nazarene Ladies Day out event in Springfield where the guest speaker is Candace Cameron (from "Fullhouse"..sister to Kirk Cameron). I am looking forward to some 'female time'! LOL
Troy is taking next week off from work for vacation. He says he has some golfing he wants to do and some 'work' in the garage.
I guess I have enough to do for a while!
