Can you say disaster

Okay that was my entire Tuesday. One big disaster from the moment I awoke and realized it was 7:35 am and the kids and I overslept and now they have missed the bus. I quickly woke them up and raced them to school at which time Brady screamed for almost an hour straight. I have now come the conclusion that I can't wait for Thursday's appointment and call the doctor. In the meantime the car dealership calls and tells me that State farm will not honor the binder until we prepay a month in advance. So now I need to somehow get to the doctors and the insurance company. However, it only gets better when I realize we also need to rent a car dolly to get Jeff's old van to the car dealership for a trade in and also come up with $200 to still pay the dealership for the down payment on the new van.

Well quickly run numbers and we are horribly short on money. I make a call to good ole' mom and ask to borrow some money until Friday. Well now I need to run to Danville on top of everything else. I call Jeff at work as my head is spinning in 300 directions because I have to do all this with 4 kids ages 2 and under. Thank goodness he was able to come home early and help me figure all this out.

I get Brady to the doctors and he has RSV and Bronculitis (sp?). There is absolutely nothing the can do it is viral but pretty serious too. It is all respiratory and we need to keep an eye on his breathing. We also need to avoid the cold as much as possible for the fear of Pneumonia on top of everything else. Great when the get sick man they get sick.

We get back and are ready to go pick up the new car. Well now the car dealership says the financing company has not verified the binder and they are still waiting. Forget this we start heading down anyways and they realize that we have done everything we are supposed to do on our end and release the new car to us. Finally done after all the work we have done to get this van this week but it is finally parked in our driveway even though it took until 8 pm last night.

Today is a nice relaxing day, enjoying ever minute of the snow. Woke up around 2 am and watched to see if the kids had snow and just watched the snow come down quietly in the dark for awhile until heading back off to bed.

Okay talk to you all later.
