so much for planning.

(i'm blogging after 10pm.  oh, well. )


this week has been the most ridiculous week. 

we went from leaving for st. joe on thurs, to leaving on friday, to not going at all.  

justin & i went back and forth with being concerned about possibly not getting another paycheck this week, to getting ready to talk with navy-marine corp relief, to feeling at ease because the check DID come in(so thankful), to watching the remnants of our checking account leave in a quick manner via bills & a sick dog.  however, every bill for this month is now paid(or will be as soon as the autopay goes through), and we had extra to cover the dog, which NEVER happens.

the dog was the reason we didn't get to go on our trip.  she has what appears to be the human version of the stomach flu.  in fact, if i don't wash my hands after i touch her, i could get it.  now i'm being "mom" to the dog and pushing meds and fluids. :)  she's actually being a normal dog, just with an upset stomach.  i am super grateful that i didn't have to take the kids to the vet with me.  one of my good friend's watched them for 2 hours...and her oldest locked them all out of the house during that time.  i definitely see a night off in her near future!

at least one person is reaping the benefits of us being home.  another good friend had her child's school program and asked to use my camera for it.  glad i was around for her to do so. :) 
aiden has school tomorrow...only we told his teacher's he wouldn't be there due to the trip.  boy, are they gonna have a surprise in the morning! :)
