Random Thoughts

Today is Friday. For those of you playing at home, that means a great deal to me. I could either get really sick again today, or I could, well...not get really sick today. If I don't? I'm getting drunk tonight maybe.

BabyJuJu hates her car seat/ carrier. I think we overdid it with her when she was tiny. We took her everywhere in it. She spent a week in Philly over 4th of July and she practically LIVED in the thing 24 hours a day. We thought we were so lucky. She was such a good baby. She slept like an angel all day as we strolled the city, attended luncheons and nice dinners out. Those days are over, people. She cries just about 2.3 seconds after I have her strapped in, she hates the car, and most offending to me, she hates shopping. I don't know where I went wrong. She is holding me prisoner in my own home. I am terrified to take her out. I am afraid of my daughter.

LittleJuJu starts kindergarten on Monday. He seems almost excited about it, but much like everything in his life that should be a big deal, he takes it in stride. Like he has just taken a long drag off the joint and closed his eyes, "No biggie. It's all coool." I on the other hand am having dreams that he is crying on the bus calling for me. Monday is not going to be easy. I'd think about driving him to school, but like I said, I am terrified to venture out with Baby-Screams-Alot.

Speaking of Philly, does anyone else think the city smells kinda "off" ? Like in a rotten cheese steak kinda way?

I am loving this cooler weather. If I don't get sick again, and the weather stays nice and cool and sunny...I might just get drunk maybe tonight.

Update: 3:36 p.m. - not sick yet.

Alright to getting drunk tonight! Too bad I can't. Julia hated her car seat thing and so did I. I think we switched her over when she was like 4 months old. Much better I tell ya. Good luck to the little guy on her first day of kindergarden!

So far, how do you feel this week-end? I am still praying for you, not only for your sickness- but Monday too! Talk about a rip your heart out moment! (And to think, they call it a "milestone"!!!) Being a Mother can be very hard!
Have you looked up your illness on the net? If so where? I wanted to look up something and went to the Web doctor only to find them for sale!
Hope this finds you & all your family well! I too had a baby that HATED riding in car- that can be INTENSE!
