Crazy Saturday

Well all I have to say is Thank Goodness today is Saturday and I have TWO WEEKS off from work!!! The only bad thing about that is that my oh so special student whom we have been working very hard with for the past month also has two weeks off and Monday back is going to be HELL!!!!

On a lighter note Jackson decided that he was going to sleep in until 7:15 this morning!!!! Yeah to two extra hours of sleep!!!! SO my parents were getting ready to leave for Oklahoma this morning and Jackson and I come down to say good bye to them, even though we will be leaving tomorrow to go up there for a week. :-) Around 9 A.M. this morning after my parents leave Jackson decides that he wants to take a nap. Once I get him down for the count I begin to clean a little. I am trying to stop being lazy and get my butt in gear to keep the house clean to prove to my husband that I can be a good house keeper for when we move next year or so. I vaccumed all the rooms, mopped the kitchen, did all the laundry and started to pack for our week long trip. I think I did very well today. Oh did I mention that I did this all while Jackson was taking his nap, which he didn't wake up from until 1 P.M. After he woke up I got him dressed, I got dressed and we went out to B&N so that I could get a study guide for the ESL test that I signed up for in March. So this will be the third Certification that I will be adding to my resume to hopefully next year be able to just slide right on in to the teaching position that will hopefully open up next year at the school.

SO we load up in the truck and head out. Jackson is not a happy camper in the carseat. I can't wait until he is 1 and can be turned around and forward facing so that he can see me. We drive down 281 to Barnes & Nobles and guess what THE PARKING LOT IS PACKED!!!!! I drive around for about 15 minutes trying to find a parking spot. Let me say that people SUCK parking in a jammed packed parking lot, they just park crooked and don't bother to take the minute to fix their vehicals so that other people can park without having to AUSTIN POWERS IT into the parking spot. I finally park myself and get everything out that I would need for Jackson in the store; bottle, toys; snacks; and wallet. First things first; COFFEE!!!! Gotta love the Peppermint White Chocolate Mocha's!!!! VENTI!!! Then I'm looking around in the section that the study guides are in and I can't find the ESL study guide. I get upset becuase I need this book to start studying on the 6 hour drive up to OKLAHOMA tomorrow afternoon. Finally there it is. So I pick it up and go on to the kids section to look around for a few cute books. I found many different books that I wanted to get for Jackson but decided that I would wait until he was a little be older. However I did find three books that are going to be stocking stuffers for my mom, dad and Jack. I thought they were very cute and hopefully they will like them as much as I do. Jackson has about had it being in his stroller, so I get him out and he DOESN'T want to be held. He wants to walk around; or crawl around. I let him hold on to the stroller and we start walking around B&N, he was SOOOOO cute if I might say so myself. We get to the checkout desk and buy all of our books and head home. Jackson falls asleep in the car and when we get home I transfer him to his crib and he has been asleep now for two more hours. Which I have done some more laundry folding and putting away and watching shows off of our DVR. Geezz so many shows!!!!! Well I hope you all have a wonderful CHRISTMAS!!!!!

Much love,
