rain, work and plays...

It rained this morning, this after raining yesterday morning.  Yesterday Mark got sent home from work.  Today thankfully he did not.  No work means no pay. 

I got called in to work to sub for a monitor who went to Galena.  There's a lot of people at work who seemed to have taken 3 week routes and taken vacations time during their route time.  Which to me is wrong.  If your route is only 3 weeks long, take your vacation time later on in the summer.  I didn't complain though, I didn't bid on a route so it didn't negatively effect me.  It actually helped me because I've subbed twice.  Besides I like to save my whining up, especially at work...why whine if nobody listens anyway.

Liz is in a play this evening.  She's in a one act.  Not sure what it's about, pretty sure the kids wrote it so it will be some sort of thing that kids understand or find funny.  I go to show my support, rah!  Actually I enjoy my kid's talent.  My husband is actually the talented one, he was quite the singer in his day.  He had the lead in two plays in high school.  I still find it so wild to have known him in high school and then years later end up marrying the guy.  Life does throw unexpected things your way that's for sure.

Tomorrow I will be babysitting again.  Thankfully, it's not supposed to rain.  Those two boys have to be outside for part of the day or the boxing match starts.  And Grandma gets pretty tired of playing ref!  But the fun always always wins over the normal sibling stuff!  Maybe grandma should teach these two how act!???

You know, I've been babysitting for the past 2 weeks and I think I'm going to pull my hair out.  I cannot take the whining from the kids!  Let's hope I can handle it for the rest of the summer!!  Talk to you soon!  Love you!

It sure is nice that Liz has a Mom who is interested in her acting etc. It's good that Mark got to work today. Enjoy your Grandkids.

Hi Rose,
I think it is very cool that Liz is in a play that kids wrote themselves!  That is so awesome!  You are such a good supporter!  I loved the rah! after that sentence you wrote!  Made me laugh, for sure!  So...if school is out, then why do you still have to work?  I'm just kinda confused about that, I'm sorry!  I'll probably feel pretty stupid when I find out the answer, won't I?  Well, enjoy those boys!  They don't stay this age for long!
Love, Linda
