Busy Day, Rough Night!

First - I love our new furniture! Once delivered I realized that my mind's eye is bigger than my family room actually is and I was forced to reconfigure the layout. If you know anything about my family room, I was forced to move the two recliners and put the love seat and ottoman there (I had to come to grips that the love seat is actually a love seat and not an oversized chair). I then moved one recliner to the spot where the former oversized chair was and then other recliner went into the living room where the red leather chair had been. It takes some getting used to but it's a good setup and makes the room seem much larger. 

On Monday evening I got an email that the delivery of the TV stand was moved up to Tuesday. Perfect. So I was listening intently all day for the UPS truck. Around 2:30 I heard him! WOOT! So I run outside and he drives around the circle, skipping my house! WHAT?! Just as he is about to drive completely away, he sees me and stops. He yells out, "I'm supposed to have a box for you but I can't find it! If I do, I'll be back." I looked around to see where the candid camera was! So around 5:30 he finally returned. Which meant I never ate dinner (corn flakes it is) and instead spent my evening putting the TV stand together. By 8:00, I had to stop because I was tired, hungry and getting blisters on my hands. I only have the door to attach (you can see it leaning against the wall) and then I'll put everything in it's proper place. 

My rough night: UGH! Around 2:00 I heard Sami coughing...she does this sometimes and I nearly rolled over, ignored it and went back to sleep. I didn't however, and got up to check on her. I found her in the guest bedroom, choking/hanging herself. See, Sami likes to "molest" furniture. She'll run her body around the perimeter of the guest bed with her body underneath the overhanging comforter. Apparently, she got her head caught between buttons of the comforter cover and then turned so it was twisted into a tiny opening that she couldn't get out of. When I found her she was pulling as hard as she could and choking herself. I got her loose easily thankfully but we were both freaked out. Then! When I got up this morning to get ready, I couldn't wake her up. I was petting her then shaking her then calling her name, then freaking out...again! When I tearfully told Jimmy what was going on, she popped up. She's in big trouble for giving her momma two heart attacks in one night.

Jim's doing better, by the way. The doctor basically said that Jim's body needs to get acclimated to the medicine and once it does, the fever should go away. They did, however, slightly reduce one of his meds again. His fever has been fluctuating between normal and 100 but he's feeling good. YAY!

Okay well, after all that I think I'm ready to go back to work and deal with pain in the ass kids. Happy Wednesday. Later!
