I want a break from the craziness!!! Today’s highlights, Caleb threw up in the car. Dean left work early to head to another office to do some work there, he planned on coming home early afterward, when he went to leave the van wouldnt start. The van we just spent $5++.00 on to fix. He tried to jump it, it didnt work. I was cleaning today, with three kids since I had one who was threw up and didnt want to chance him getting anyone else sick considering I had an upset stomach I figured we might have the stomach bug, again, you know the one we had a week or two ago? So…..I had no idea where I was going, but Dean gave me directions. It took me an hour and a half to get to pick Dean up, by that point I was way beyond mad and frustrated. We left the van there, went to dinner and shopped a bit then came home. Once home we thought Zeke felt warm, he’s been fussy a lot this last week and today slept a lot but wasnt interested in eating very much. His temp is currently 101.2. I am way beyond stressed. We have no van, again. I’ve only driven it once in the last 3 weeks. We were going to load it up and make a run to the dump tomorrow so we could empy out the last room that needs work in the basement. now we dont know what to do. No van, again. Dont want to spend more money on it since we just forked out tons on it, and we cant even get it running to get it to a shop. I am so upset about all of this. So we’re dealing with Dean finding out he’s getting laid off, 2 sick kids, only one working vehicle that is a snug fit w/ three kids in carseats and even then it’s running strangely too. on top of that no one is being supportive of our needing to move soon, ok, not that many people. I have no one to call to talk to about it who wont be too upset with me about moving away from them, so instead dean and I had a nice spat today. I’m just at my limit, and then after cleaning for 6 hours( it would have taken 5 maybe even 4 1/2 hours without the kids, I even had a sitter lined up for once, but Caleb threw up!!) my back is killing me again. I was fine I thought but then as we walked around the mall for just a few minutes I was gripping the stroller becuase the pain was so bad. I am just sick of dealing with so much at one time, and now I feel like no one is going to be supportive of us during this extremely stressfull time. Anyone got a million dollars to spare, or at least a truck to help us get some things to the dump?? BAHHHHHHH, I just want one day to enjoy and be happy and painfree would be nice to!! we have a wedding to attend tomorrow afternoon, but I’m guessing that depends on how well Zeke is doing. Dean has to work all day Sunday which will leave me carless since we just have one working vehicle now. ok, I’m done whining. Arent fridays supposed to be fun!?!?!?!

    You can call me!! Lisa has practice tomorrow but aside from that our plans are up in the air. We are making a dump run next week (if we are allowed to with my Dad”s truck being from out of state and all..) so I will let you know what day, and if you need us to maybe we can take some of your stuff too…? It may seem we aren’t being supportive, but thats because we love you so much and will miss you tons. However, I will root for you and your successes no matter what because that is what friends do for one another!
