Last week

Roses are red and Violets are Blue Sugar is sweet . Well of course it is its sugar! Valentines was most uneventful day . The girls texted at 5 they were going out . Derek wasn’t hungry but also wanted to know what was for dinner. He went to bed at 7:30 and I made Mac n Cheese. And watched TV and ordered Free People. I have not slept that hard in a long time and it was so good .  Apparently, Derek slept in also for a change. I asked “ did you hear the children come home ? “ Yes they were slamming doors and trying to go out the French doors I think. At 4AM !

Saturday, we ran some errands. And we grabbed Chick fil A . We went back home and woke the girls up They ate and went back to bed for about 4 hours . While I changed out all the decorations. to St. Patrick’s Day . Which they are amazed by . I guess living in America we celebrate the Irish even if we aren’t the Mexican even is we aren’t cause that the country is made up of. As for them it’s made they do not part take in this. So it’s new and pretty and they send pictures back home. They ate dinner and back to bed they went. Sunday they were on a bus to San Antonio and I was child free for 48 hours .

I arrived back home to find what I left I asked Derek to finish cooking for breakfast he didn’t something on his own . Which was annoying . And this will not be the only meal he messes up today. Derek headed to the place and I went to Sam’s and HEB where I did not dodge the creepy guy bullet. But missed a Wicked Old Witch . And I returned home to take a lovely nap and Helped Derek bag deer sausage . And I waited for Bibigo all day to have Derek ask if  the beans were done yet. Uh I didn’t cook beans . But there are some in the freezer. Thinking why do we need beans for Bibigo? We need rice. Cause well I wasn’t eating Bibigo that’s why . He had me season the steaks. And heat the beans . And its chose to flick bean juice all over the counter top like a child . Wanted a brownie heated up with ice cream on it with whip cream and a cherry added. I was so irritated. I had been hungry all day . And didn’t get what I wanted . Annoyed ! 5 bites and I was over it.  I am so tired of waiting on people and apparently it’s just my job.

Monday came with lots of pinching  and hearing you have to go to work !!! And all I could think was leave me alone ! I do not have to get up just yet . But I did cause there was no point in laying there. I was up dressed and off to work and I arrived to work and never felt more irritated in my life . Sent the Staff Senate email with the agenda and had a room change. Then I flood of email and jabber that there were no minutes and the room changed. Well I wasn’t at the December meeting and I apparently nobody used the recorder for the meeting. And nobody sent me anything so no there are no minutes. And yes the email is different than 2 weeks ago . Cause Special Events called me and changed the room. Why ? Why is this so hard for people to read and understand ? It’s not that hard. But clearly it is. Jordan came by the office and it seems my day is hilarious to him maybe the fact It sounded like I went to sailor school was comical to him . I mean I generally do not speak that way . But for some reason it’s just been a day .

The Children returned by 10pm Monday night with their shopping bags and all they can tell me is that they ate at County Line and Went to tower of Americas that night . You were in San Antonio from noon til 9am the next day and that’s it. I get it’s not that exciting . But come on. That’s not all you did. And then Allison comes to me and says I forgot my toothbrush in hotel do you have one ? Well I would normally say yes. But actually I do not. So there I was at 5am Tuesday Morning buying a toothbrush.

Your Welcome ! Yes I did go get you a toothbrush . I should have made her go with me to get it.

They have been here 4 weeks been waited on hand and foot . And I am tired. I asked do you have any Idea what you want for dinner. Pasta  ! Seriously ? I mean easy enough . But I could never eat this much pasta in 4 weeks and not gain 20 pounds or more. So spaghetti it was .

Wednesday was rainy and cold and Awesome ! Picked them up from school and the question of the day was “ whats for dinner ? “ Turkey Soup !!!!  that took me a miniute. Turkey Gumbo is really what they wanted. Which luckily I had some in the freezer and it doesn’t take long to thaw

Friday Eve never sounded so good. Well one was dying , um she had a stopped up nose. It was Rosas for dinner for them again . Seems to be what they have fallen for . But they had Chile Verde time around and it was quite a warm dish for them this time . Snot runny out the nose.  It was a great sight .

Last School pick up at 3ish Friday afternoon! They said they had to pack and clean. I’m not clear on what they are cleaning. But alright. Apparently Allison ulgy cried at school. Who knew she had it in her? Julie making fun on her the whole way back to campus. They better not cry when I drop them off. Derek has stated he is in a very bad mood and everyone can go to Hell. Well alright . Stay clear from me. Cause I didn’t do it. He wanted to know what the last American meal would be ? Well do we really eat American . We went home as usual they took a nap and started packing . Ella came over got a manicure. The girls picked Turkey Gumbo for their last dinner here. That was a shock

They were a sad sight . They were scared to go home. They didn’t want the flu. They were not looking forward to the long flight back. They just wanted to stay put. So they waited to the very last minute. and I mean I had to tell them we have to go. My house was like a pregnant lady who wouldn’t go into labor.

Julie was so stopped up and sounded miserable I picked up nose spray and taught her to use it. She wasn’t to sure. Until she was able to breath out of one side . And then she was so excited for the othe side of her nose. I hugged them and said if you need anything ever , call , text, email. And then Email me when you get home.

Sunday morning 9:10am I had an email : we just arrived in Korea. Thank you for taking care of us till the end. We miss you already. Never quit emailing us.

Sunday 4:33 pm Huffy thank you for the medicine . I got home safely . I miss you .

My work here is done. I’m off to make a King Cake .

Until next time.

Infinite X’s and O’s

Ella was my Valentine.
