LOL. Just got the pleasure of watching my 4 year old hit himself in the head when his Wii remote flew from his grip. Thank God for straps!

About a half hour ago.
RT (Red Toddler) came home from school today with hot head. He was feeling a little blue, not his usual hopping around and trying to get out of mommy’s grasp self. He wanted no snack, just some water. So I gave him his water and some Tylenol for the fever. He was feeling better and asked for some pretzels. I gave him some pretzels figuring since that’s all he wanted at least it was something in his stomach. Shortly there after, he comes into the living room sits on the sofa and hiccups. I look over and before I get to him, he’s puked up his lunch. I can tell it’s his lunch, because, well I can see the chunks.
I run about getting the “puke bucket” and by the time i get back, it’s pretty much over. Most of it got on him thank goodness and the seat cushion cover, I think I got about 3 tablespoons in the bucket. *sigh*
My parental pleasure moment comes after I’ve cleaned him up and gotten him fresh clothing, I’m at the sink washing out his clothes of his lunch, while he’s singing walking down the hallway. I’m washing his puke and he gets to sing all nice and clean. Someone got the better deal.

Well, got what I wished for. I’m unemployed, as of last week Tuesday.
I hadn’t gotten around to adding a post, because to be quite frank, I was being a lazy ass. I haven’t slept the entire time since getting laid off, but I have a couple of days, taken an extended nap. Hehe.. hey I was due for a little R&R. Course it’d be nice to have some R&R with the hubby on a week long childless vacation, but money woes being what they are, napping will have to do.
Almost all of us at the headquarters got laid off. We knew it would be coming because of all the rumors, but we never knew when or what was actually going on. It’s sad really when they kept from us the truth, and us being the people that have stuck by the company for as long as we did. We received about an hour notice, or maybe two hours, depends if you want to include all the running about when people found out that they let go of the advertising department. Then when people started to get let go from the Merchandising department. All but maybe three. Seeing people packing their stuff, and being angry at the way it was done. My department was next and I was asked into the office of the controller where the HR woman sat and the “AP Supervisor” sat waiting for me. They just didn’t have any money left. Things hadn’t worked out as they hoped and pretty much everyone was being let go today. There would be no vacation pay out, there would be no severance pay since there was no money. We would only be paid for Monday and Tuesday (Tuesday being the day I’m being told all this), Medical benefits would end as of that day. Meaning if I had a doctors appointment on Wednesday, I would not be covered. I could pack up and leave whenever I wanted too, I would be paid for the entire day. Don’t let the door hit ya in the ass!!!
We scrambled to get what paperwork the hubby’s job needed from us to put us all on his insurance through his work, to make sure we had coverage for the kids doctors appointment that we had for them this past Wednesday. Thankfully his work place HR knows what they are doing.
I did what I needed to do to file for unemployment and am going to look into what they might cover in regards to educational courses, so that I can get my Payroll Certification. So we’ll see. Till then, I’m napping, and slowly working on spring cleaning. But I better act fast, kids have spring break in about two weeks. It’s gonna be scary!!

RT was sitting with me on the foot half of the recliner. Out of the blue turns towards my husband sitting next to me in the other recliner.
“daddy has black hair”
Turns to me, “mommy has gray hair”
I said, “WHAT?!?”
Turns to his brother, “.. has brown hair”
I said, “what color hair do I have”
He turns to me looking a little nervous and scared. He replies with fear, “mommy has gray hair?”
I turned to my husband and he’s stifling a snicker behind his hand.
“did you hear what he said?”
“yes dear”
RT still looking scared and confused, cuz he’s actually just told the truth and can’t understand my reaction.
“yes (RT), mommy has gray hair, and what color hair does (RT) have?”
“BLONDE!” said with relief and joy.
Jeez. Think it’s time to dye again???
