General Motors

I want to throw up.

I do not want to move.

Anywhere.

I think we may be moving to Lordstown, Ohio.

I want to throw up.

Sadie Hawkins

My son is going to the Sadie Hawkins dance.

Katelyn asked him to the dance.

 

She hid easter eggs all over his room and in each one was a piece of paper with a letter on it. After he found all the eggs, he had to unscramble the letters and they said, "Will you go to Sadie's with me?"

The theme is "Beauty & the Geek".

 My son went to Goodwill and bought his outfit.

  I am embarrassed to say that the socks and shoes are his father's.

He even has the hairdo :)

Walmart & Medicine

Jules went to the doctor on Wednesday because he was running 102.9 temp and his throat hurt along with his entire body.  JC was at school but had been complaining of a sore throat for about 3 days.  I told Jules to get a prescription for JC while he was there.

My mom took him to the doctor for me (yay for mom being here!).  After the doctor's visit, they went to Walmart and dropped of two prescriptions--one for Jules, one for JC, they were both for the Z-Pack.

I texted Rob and asked him to stop and pick up the prescriptions.  He stopped and picked up one.  He said that Walmart told him that there was only one prescription so that's what he brought home.

I gave JC money on Thursday to go and pick up his prescription after school.

I get a call from him and this is how the conversation goes:

JC:  Mom??

Me: Yeeeesss

JC: They said that there isn't a prescription here for me. They said it was picked up yesterday.

Me: No, your dad picked up Jules' prescription.

JC:  It was a Z-Pack, it was my prescription because I'm allergic to pennicilin. Jules didn't get a prescription.

Me: {Deep sigh} Yes JC, Jules did too get a prescription, he actually got two, one for you and one for him.

JC: But Jules isn't allergic so he wouldn't have a Z-Pack, it's mine.

Me:  The doctor wrote TWO prescriptions, one for you, one for your brother, both of them for Z-packs.

JC:  Well they said it was already picked up.

Me:  PUT THE LADY ON THE PHONE

JC:  Do you want me to call Dad to see if he picked it up?

Me: (thinking to myself--are you hard of hearing?!?!?)  I already told you, your dad picked up JULES PRESCRIPTION

JC:  (Talks to the lady at Walmart and I hear her in the background saying that there isn't a prescription for Jules, only JC and it was picked up yesterday) Mom, she says it was already picked up.

Me: Give her Jules' birthday and have her look it up that way.

JC:  She says there isn't one for him.

Me:  G.I.V.E. H.E.R. T.H.E. P.H.O.N.E. N.O.W.

JC: (to the lady at Walmart: She wants to talk to you)

Lady at Walmart:  Hello?

Me: Who exactly do I need to talk to about the prescription you all lost!  There were two SEPARATE pieces of paper which were BOTH prescriptions turned in yesterday and only ONE prescription was picked up.

LaW:  Hold on

JC:  They found the other paper, it was stuck to the back of the other one.  They said it will be about 20 minutes.

Me: Really?!?!?!  Are they going to DISCOUNT it due to the STUPIDITY LEVEL?!?!?

JC: What?

Me: Nevermind, love you, bye

Hootin and Hollerin

That would be why my son spent the night in the city jail Monday night.

No kidding, the legal document said he was "hooting & hollering".

  Only in the South is it illegal to use your "outside" voice, well, outside.

New bed

We went and got a new KING SIZE bed.  For the first week I kept waking up several times a night and would wonder what hotel I was in then I would see my alarm and realize I was home :)

I got a new down comforter and a duvet set....I love the new colors that we are going to do our room in.

We are going to paint the walls blue & white.
We color matched the tan and painted the bath that color.

Cell phones

I took my boys yesterday to upgrade their cellphones.

My youngest knew exactly which phone he wanted and didn't take long at all.

My oldest on the other hand, must have taken a "drama" pill before we left.

I told him to pick a phone and he said "I want the IPhone." to which I replied, "No way, pick something else."

He then proceeded in with begging, pleading and somewhat whiny tirade of "I'll get a job", "if I don't pay, you can turn my phone off". To which I responded, "You have had 2 months to get a job, which you haven't, what makes you think I would trust you to pay your bill every month??" 

At that point he exclaims in a very loud voice, "I have been talking about getting an IPhone for the last month, if I can't have an IPhone, I'll just go home and slit my wrists (deep sigh)".

The guy that was setting up JC's phone looks up at that point looks at Jules and asks, "Dude, I like your jacket, can I have it?", which startles Jules and he looks up at the guy and says "Thanks man".

The Sales guy then says, "No really, if you are going to kill yourself, I want your jacket, it's really sweet."

Jules really had no idea how to respond so he just said again, "Thanks man".

At that point Jules walks off and we complete the transaction for JC's phone.

Jules comes back over to us and exclaims that the only other phone worth getting is the one JC got and he doesn't want the same phone as his brother.  JC (being the diplomat that he is) suggests we go over to the AT&T store and check there, that they would have more phones.

So off we go to the AT&T store, JC thanks me and kisses me by (He had drove the truck to Best Buy so he could go to a karate match that his friend was in) and Jules and I get in Grandma's car and drive over to the AT&T store.

After about 20 minutes of fretful looking, he finally finds a phone that he could live with and we get it.

I am so very thankful that the renewal contracts are only up every two years. I just don't think I could do it any more than that!
