This morning Judah woke up with a stuffy nose and a cough at 8:50am. Obviously, I don't like it when my boy is sick. But this time was an especially big problem, because it was the first time playgroup would be at our house. Ahh!! So, what did I do? I called Eric and blamed him for Judah being sick. Ummm, yeah. That was stupid and immature. I'm working on thinking before I speak and not saying things I regret. Really, I am! I guess it's like my Pastor told me, it's a learning process. Some bad habits are hard to break. Really, I've said a lot of really stupid things that I regret and have a lot of (funny now) stories to go along with them. I'll have to save that post for another day.
But, back to playgroup. It starts at 9:30, so I didn't really have time to cancel it or move it. The first mommy and little girl showed up at 9:30 on the dot. And, guess what? The little girl had a runny nose? And, the next little girl? So, did she. And, her baby sister did, too. The 4th and final little girl (yes, all little girls today!) didn't, but like my mom said, she will soon!
Having playgroup at my house (or apartment should I say, since I'm the ONLY one in playgroup who lives in an apartment. I'm also the only one in my mid-twenties...or early twenties? Which am I?), well, it went good. It was fun talking and hanging out with the mommies and they liked my snack (yay!) and liked my house (yay!) and Judah had fun and did well and so did Samuel! There was two other little babies, a 9 month old who Samuel had fun playing with, and a 4 month old who he was VERY interested in.
After playgroup we went to lunch with my mom (Judah LOVES his Nana! - pronounced nonna- because it rhymes with her name, Donna) and saw Cari! Afterwards we walked next door to this cute little stationery store and I bought a business card holder for my women's business luncheon, which I'll tell you more about later, after I make sure my mother in law can watch the boys. Ellie- I'm trying to get ahold of you! :)
Oh yeah, and my whole intention of writing this (which I just remembered) was to tell you all about my habit of losing/misplacing cell phones. Now dad, before you say anything, this is only my second phone I've lost. The first one I lost in a hotel room. I put it by my bed to use as an alarm clock. When it went off I picked it up, turned it off and laid it on the bed. And, that was the last time it was seen! I've misplaced them a lot, but usually end up finding them in car/under the bed/in the toybox/or some other random spot. But, not this time! :( So, my dad canceled my sister's phone number and gave her mine. If you try to call my cell phone, you'll really be calling my little sister, so don't do that. I guess I shouldn't complain too much because my dad has been paying for my cell phone since I graduated high school, so I got the past 6.5 years free. Since I hardly ever use it he suggested getting a pay by the minute (or whatever you call them) types. Does anyone know where the best deal is?

If you were way up here in Beautiful Canada I would suggest that you call my husband because he sells cell phones but you don't get Telus down there! Sorry! Is there a way of just getting the most basic package with no voice mail, caller id, etc? I am sure there is one somewhere that would cost maybe $20 a month. I think that with pay-by-the minute you have to buy a phone that the company requires and then the minutes card. It can be expensive at first, but again...your phone companies are different than ours! Sorry, I didn't really help at all!
ReplyDeleteHey Morgan, I love playgroups they are soo fun and it is nice to hang out with other moms although like you I am often the youngest in the group. I just got a pay as you go phone after looking at many companies. I picked net10 wireless http://www.net10wireless.com/home_page.jsp they are 10 cents a minute and you get 300 free minutes when you sign up. You don't have to pay to sign up, you just buy your phone. I got a nice one (the Nokia 2100) for 69.99. I really think they are the best deal. I hope that helps. Oh and I started a blog. I am going to take a picture everyday as a way of getting a glipse of my life in pictures (I guess that is the best way to explain it). Just thought I would let you know in case you want to check it out. Have a great day!

oh my phone is actually the 1100, sorry. And it works great and seems very durable.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad the playgroup went well. You don't seem that young through your posts ;) If that makes sense lol
ReplyDeleteI would love to have some sort of play group at my place. I don't like to pay for day care if not needed but I would still like Jacob to spend more time with children his age. He has a lot of cousins but most of them are older. Helps them to socialize and learn how to share etc.
ReplyDeletewhat snack did you make for playgroup? I need some ideas!
ReplyDeleteI always feel guilty taking J. to playgroup if his nose is runny, but I feel like this time of year, almost everyone will have a runny nose!
Glad that that you went through with the playgroup and it turned out good. :) I want to know what the snack was, too!
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of you losing things, remember that time you lost your retainer at La Comida and we had to dig through the trash to find it?
ReplyDeleteAhem.
ReplyDeleteI think you still have a black Nokia phone that should be perfectly serviceable.

Ha! My point exactly.
