Thursday was spent in town all day. Ate at Burger King for breakfast (healthy! *sarcasm*), went to JCPenny for Eenan’s shoes, Target to return/exchange some things (exchanged a shirt for the Cheer Bear Cub I wanted–only to have it go on sale again this Sunday!), a shoe store who’s name I can’t remember for Mario’s shoes, Wal-Mart for house stuff, Star’s for lunch, back home so the boys (including Mario) could all take naps, spent some time outside talking to Big Mario and ooohing over the truck he bought (very cute 70’s stripes along the side!), went to RGVmag to get our “prize” since Mario answered the mystery thing correctly (and I’ll be coming out in the magazine in a few months–I looked like total crap!), stopped at Mario’s work, took Eenan for a haircut (only $3.75!), visited Mom & John for a while, went to H-E-B for groceries, picked up a pizza from Pizza Hut (our prize!), and then I got home and made mole/rice for Mario’s lunch the next day, tried watching a movie with Mario on the futon but kept dozing off, and then I went to bed. *whew* Yeah, it was as hectic as I just described 
.
Friday the boys and I just chilled out here and when Mario got home from work we went to Jorge’s (with only Jaylen, Eenan of course was sleeping over with his Nana). Don’t really remember much from that day…it’s a bit of a blur.
The next morning I made breakfast and saw Mario off to work then got the boys ready since we’d be going with Mary and Yazmin to watch Robots. It was too cute and funny. The boys actually sat through the whole thing and didn’t ask to go home once. When 4pm rolled around I took the meat, sausage, and fish down so it would thaw and made a chocolate cake and flan. I got myself ready and called Mary since she’d be watching the boys for us while we went to Hiram’s get-together. Mario got there and we got all the stuff we needed for the bar-be-cue together. On the way over I had this nagging feeling we forgot something. I think I told Mario twice, “I hope we didn’t forget anything”. We get there, say hi to everyone and take all the food to the kitchen. We were already late and we had the majority of the food. When taking all the ingredients out of the bag for the guacamole dip I was going to make, we realize we forgot the darn meat! He took off in a huff and came all the way back home to pick it up. I met Naomi and Eric, then later on Albert, Jannett and their baby, Alan; Frankie, and the Cat (as they call him) arrived. Joe and Hiram were already there with Jorge and Maggie. All in all it was a great night. Lots of laughs and Alan fell in love with me. I don’t think a baby I don’t know’s ever just jumped on my lap like that. He was the cutest thing with the BIGGEST eyes I’ve ever seen! Hiram got a little wasted and was being hilarious. He ended up with cake all over the place and was even spanked with a huge plank by Eric LOL. He complimented my cake and said he was impressed…that only his mom made cake that moist..aww! Maggie liked the flan…she ate half the pan by herself, no joke!
Everyone was really nice. I was a bit leery about going since there were going to be all these people I’ve never met there, because everyone (mostly the guys Mario works with) like to talk shit about the wives and how ugly/fat they are. Mario told me not to worry because I wasn’t fat/ugly and because everyone thought I was cool and not bitchy LOL. That made me feel a little bit better 
.
Sunday Mario was off work and we just stayed home all day long. It was so boring LOL. He made dinner that night which was Penne Pasta with spaghetti sauce, ground beef, and mushrooms mixed in. He topped it off with parmesean cheese and some spices and some garlic/parmesean bread…it was SO good.
Today was the first day back at school for Eenan. Back to the same ol’ routine…egh. He did good though…didn’t give me a hard time when he woke up or anything. ‘Open House’ was tonight and it was the first day of their book fair. Mary, Noelia, Jaylen, Eenan and I all went walking to the school. Ms. O. had nothing but nice things to say about him. He’s such a good student, I’m so proud 
. He went around the class showing us everything they do, where he sits, and was even showing Jaylen stuff like puzzles and their games. We went to the book fair and they got Unlovable, How Do Dinosaurs Get Well Soon? and Little Quack’s Hide and Seek. They’re all too cute, but I especially loved Unlovable. Now I want a pug .
Tomorrow they’re having “Muffins for Mom’s Day” for Public School Week at 10am. Since I won’t have a car (Mario will be at work by then) I’m taking Jaylen in his stroller and we’re going for a walk. Hopefully it’s nice out, like it was today. It’ll be good exercise.
For dinner tonight I made Chicken with a Twist, without the ‘twist’ since I used elbow macaroni (I had nothing else!). It came out pretty good–the boys even ate it. Let’s see if my toughest critic, Mario, likes it. He’s finally home from Jorge’s 
.
Hah, he liked it, who’da thought? I really need to go see Gramma this weekend. Mom called and told me she was very depressed and was complaining about a pain in her chest. I hope they get her checked out and that nothing’s wrong with her. I kept thinking about her and was praying she was okay. I wish I could see her more often 
. Okay, Jaylen’s heavy and is on my lap trying to go back to sleep so that’s my cue. Goodnight.
!), I started feeling really thirsty and my chest felt like it was tightening up; like I couldn’t breathe. Either I was having a heart attack or my sugar went up. It couldn’t have been low because I know what it feels like when it’s low. I’m so going to have some type of glucose problem, and it sucks 
. I’ve been drinking nothing but limeade, tea and strawberry milk since we’re totally out of water. I REFUSE to drink tap water–that’s disgusting. I haven’t even had much of an appetite since last week…and when I do get hungry all I want is junk food–sweet junk food. I need to keep exercising…I don’t like feeling like this 
!
!
. The tea was so good. Never had tea like that before and never have I added milk to my tea! It was awesome. We spent the rest of the night online and just talking and catching up. I made dinner and we ate and then Mario got home. We watched the other movie we got, Maria Full of Grace, which I’ve wanted to watch since it came out. I thought it was a good movie. The very end was a bit “blah”–could have had a more detailed ending–but Mario and I tend to think the endings suck of most movies LOL. It’s something I noticed recently
