Today was a pretty good day, well the first part of it was. Work went by pretty fast. For those of you who don't know I work at RR Donnelley as a inserter assistant. Anyway I found out that I finally get the Monday thru Friday shift. I've had the Tuesday thru Saturday shift, which sucks because family stuff is always on Saturdays. I have had to miss a lot of things and my poor husband has had to miss many a golfing outings with his parents because he has had to watch the girls while I am at work.
After work was a totally different story. I had to go to Walmart, not really my favorite place to shop because there is always so many people there, but usually they have what I need so I don't have to stop at 20 different places. Those of you that have kids understand this, one place is more than enough. I had to pick up medicine for my little Caitlin, the poor girl has been very sick lately. She has been throwing up a lot and we can't seem to figure out what is wrong. She is pretty small for her age. Her twin cousins who are six months younger than her already weigh more than she does. Since she has been hardly getting anything down, she lost weight. Which totally scared me, because she seems tiny to me anyway. One thing that bugged me was her medicine cost $83.75 , that is probably not that bad. But usually our girls are healthy so we haven't had to buy prescriptions.
If that wasn't bad enough, my five year old daughter Allie, decided she had to throw a fit right there in Walmart. Yes, I am the mother of the screaming child that you all wish that she would leave her kids at home when at the grocery store. Sorry sometimes these things just can't be helped. I am praying that this is something that she is going to grow out of, not something that is just going to get worst. Any parents out there with advice would be greatly appreciated.
