Ride is Over

Feel normal again, but got hit with a pretty bad head cold, woken up @ 6:30am with congestion and runny nose, looks like I've hit the peak of this illness. Good news is that I was up early to enjoy the FREE coffee from Starbucks! By 9am Heath and the kids had acquired 3 cups for me before they left for work/school! LOL

Good thing I was showered, dressed and ready to go early this morning, Pam called sick with a major migraine, I dashed over to take Masey so she could rest. We hunted for crabs & seaweed on the beach to feed my chickens, Masey was so excited! Koda loves hanging out with his lil buddy they get along great.

We've been suffering with a head cold for the past few days, I've been trying to find time to lay in bed and rest for the last 3 days, unsuccessfully. Between the kids, Heath & work, I have no time to sit still. I did get my wine bottled and have managed to process three work quotes. The kids have continued to mow lawns after school & on weekends. I made it to 2 workouts on Monday, one was a booked appointment with a trainer and I went again 7pm with Svea for Latin Dance classes, alot of fun, however I made the mistake of eating rich Coldstone Creamery Ice cream before the dance class which sat heavy and made me feel sick after all the bouncing.

Yesterday we had a lawn mowing of 1 acre property that is for sale, 2 houses (3 living suites) & 3 garages, would LOVE to own it, currently selling for 545k but it's R-zoning, I'd prefer A-2. I recieved a call from the homeowner this afternoon, the tenants are dissatisfied with the mowing, they figure for the money they pay in rent, the lawn should be done better... what a bitch! We were on the site for 3 fricken hours. I ended up having to leave 1/2 hour early from this job because Devon was in tears over an ear ache, I brought him to the Clinic and they put him on amoxicillin for an ear infection. Heath supervised the kids and made sure to go the extra mile, from what the Landlord expected of us and I'm shocked the tenants are being difficult.

I've been communicating with Wanda for the past week re: visitation, her brother recieved a large sum of money and they want to travel here to see Dennis & Kiesha. Wanda called yesterday to say they're coming this weekend. I've agreed to supervise the visitation this time and advised Wanda to arrange a professional supervisor for subsequent visits. Should be interesting, I really don't know what to expect, but I'm sure it will be okay, anything questionable happens and I'll end the entire visit immediately.

I'm still really sitting on the fence about the LPN, I could struggle through the Bio12 course and hope to be ready for the exam in June, then try get the Math/English assessment done ASAP to get on the waiting list for a seat Sept or Nov 2010. I hate being rushed, I am also annoyed by the disorganization of the current program that I'm taking and think it would be easier if I attend a classroom structure for Bio12, I'd have been done long time ago if I'd done this in the first place. I still feel somewhat tied down because Koda isn't in kindergarten yet, having him in school fulltime will help immensely for being in school or starting a job.
