Never Ending

Yesterday morning- first Rachel who had a lovely weekend, and a lot of that apart from me couldn't go to school without me. Well, that was not going to happen, since the oldest 2 had to go to the orthodontist. When I left Pat, I seriously said, I'll go fight traffic and you can fight with her. It took forever at the ortho, (like I had time to read 2 magazines and the Arizona Living section of the newspaper) since Joseph had the pull thingy put in at the oral surgeon, Dr. M wanted to get the arm thingy put in. (I have no idea what all these thingy's names are so they are thingy's, when they tell me these things, I think there is no way I'm going to remember what they are called, so I don't pay much attention) Dropped Joseph off at school first, because I had a few things to do at Sunrise. Rachel who couldn't go to school without me was totally fine without me. Came home and laid down for a little while. Sarah had student council yesterday after school. Rachel was great getting ready for dance, until we get there and she puts on her taps shoes but they are too tight. We have a big issue, she wants to wear the shoes she wore in the car, except they are Sarah's and are way to big, and won't even stay on her feet, after a few minutes of arguing, I leave her at the dance studio to decide for her self what she's going to do. Pick Sarah up and we go back to the dance studio and Rachel is happily dancing. Why does she do this to me? UGH I was supposed to go to my book club last night but I thought my head was going to explode, this cold is getting worse and worse by the day. Some how, I got the girls in bed and asleep right away, but not so lucky with Joseph, who kept turning on a TV, while he was supposed to be getting ready for bed. I did finally get him into his room by 10. Between by head, nose, chest and ears being stuffed up, I thought the night would never end. Rachel was going to start to freak out this morning, but some how, I convinced her not to cry. I wished I could figure her out.
