It's been a little crazy

Life has been crazy, but nothing we can't handle!  Friday evening Robert came home from school not feeling well.  There was no swim practice, and I had a couple of hours of work to do in order to get the band fundraiser ready for Saturday morning.  First after I worked at the school though, I ran to the grocery...desperately needed after not going for over two weeks!  We ordered pizza that evening, I had things ready to go, and although I had to be up at 7 on Saturday, I had a decent night sleep.

Saturday I was at the fundraiser by 8:30 to hand over the materials, then I dashed to Thomas's art finale.  He then had basketball practice, so Robert and I came home to work on cleaning the house since we were having overnight guests.  We had a blast with everyone, but didn't get nearly enough sleep Saturday night.

Sunday morning our guests had to leave early, and I drove to my hometown for a quick brunch with my mother and quick visit with my grandmother.  As I was driving back to town, I received a call from the person handling the fundraiser pickup.  We were severely short on items.  I came home and checked my spreadsheet, and the totals were WRONG!  The formulas hadn't calculated correctly.  I was just sick about the entire thing.  There just weren't words.  I spent Sunday evening at a church commitment and just couldn't stop thinking about it.  I wanted to cry and vomit at the same time.  Our vendor did tell me that evening he thought he could get more inventory in, but I needed a specific total of what was needed.  I spent a couple of hours working on that Sunday night, before I continued working on a church project that needed finished by yesterday.  Robert worked until after 10:30 Sunday night, and we were tired people yesterday.

I worked in the morning in first grade, and received a phone call that Robert needed to go home sick.  I sent Andrew to get him.  I went to church after being done at school, and I also began finalizing details for the additional inventory coming in later this week.  I also needed to be working on laundry since we are leaving this evening for my in-laws.

I am so grateful to be off work today.  I had so much I needed to take care of for the band, and I still needed to pack.  I have so enjoyed this day, and this quiet.  It's been a very nice beginning to a few days off, and hopefully we can enjoy some family time!
