What a day.....

So do you want to hear about my day???? Sure you do... Because you love me.... Okay so the day starts off like a normal day. My kids are at their dads house until later that evening when he was to bring them back home. I only had one kido to watch until then. At 6pm I was to leave to pick up the other little girl I watch and was only suppose to have her until about 8:30... So all in all nice day... Until.....

Well first 2 am I am BURNING hot!!!! I look at the thermostat to see it's 79 degree's in my house, I check online to see how hot it is outside and it's 75! Nice my house is hotter then outside and yet my A/C is blowing like crazy but with no cold freaken air! URGH! I get up first thing in the morning, and start calling and emailing our landlords.

I get really upset because my landlords say it might take 3 days to get this fixed. I then go off in email.... THEN our landlords try to say that if they have to replace our A/C unit that they will do so and then up our rent... Can we say ILLEGAL???? UGH

Then my ex calls me around noon to let me know that he believes his water pump is going out. He was driving to bring the kids home and the car started making aloud rattling noise. So off I go to pick up the kids which they were about 45 mins away. I get them, score though because my ex made us all Pizza! Whoo-hoo.. Good thing too because I was starving!

We all get in the car listen to who is doing what to do who (always a fun game you should try it sometime? not!). Get home, start feeding the kids. To what we hear a few moments later? My son screaming bloody murder. It was the type of scream where you just drop everything and run because you know something is wrong. Christopher tells me that Amy (my oldest) jumped on his finger when they were playing apparently Wolf and Cat? Never heard of the game but whatever... Amy claims it's an accident but still get's time out because our "accident's" in this house seem to happen quiet often and I wanted to teach the kids that yes they do happen but we still have to pay attention or people will get hurt.

Sortly after Christopher is still yelling, Derrick takes a look at his hand and says, uh Misty has his finger always looked like this??? His pinky was the finger he hurt and now his hand is making what looks like an L... Great.. Nope it doesn't normally look like that... So I have to call the mom I usually pick up her daughter and tell her I can't today, call the other mom and let her know my helper I have here will have to watch her son while I am away...So off to the ER we go! Low and behold it's broken... Sigh As you can see his nice little splint that the doctors gave him.


So we leave there, get him some Ice Cream for being such a big boy in the ER :) and then head home. Get home and realize I have no pain meds for him. Eat dinner go and get that. After we get home we give him his motrin, put the kids to bed and that was that...

Phew I am still tired....

It's our first broken bone... Twice now though he has hurt the same hand... Poor boy! Anyways thought I would share.

Wow, what a day. Glad it wasn't mine. I like my "boring" days at home! LOL **hugs** Well poor Christopher, sounds like it wasn't such a great day for him, but what a big boy he is... standing there and smiling!! :) Hugs to him and I hope that he heals up quickly. Bless his heart.
