Feelin' Foolish

Yesterday was April Fool's day - the first day of April - April 1, 2010. I knew what day it was, and I still caught it - 3 times no less! Before I ever got out of the house this morning I got hit twice. 

Before I got in the shower, my darling husband tells me that when he let the dogs out, Stella got away from him and took off. "I'm getting ready to go run, so hopefully I'll find her while I'm out"  I should have been clued in by all the apologies...

When he gets back from his run, I have just gotten out of the shower and have a towel on my head and trying to get dressed when he pops open the door. He tells me that Frank wants to talk to me real quick and it's really important. Frank is the trash guy & super annoying and no conversation with him is quick. Bobby & I have this totally absurd exchange where I keep saying no - I'm not dressed - tell him I'm in the shower, blah blah blah, and he keeps saying Sorry, but he's out there waiting and he says it's important, blah blah blah. Finally I get fed up with the stupid conversation and tell him that I am NOT going out there and Frank can just come by work or something later and that's FINAL! "Gotcha!" Ugh!

Work has been crazy the last couple of days trying to get ready for a ginormous funeral, and the family is what I call 'Special Needs'. That means that they require extra attention, they focus on the minutest of details, and they change their minds frequently, which most generally leads to a last minute song or poem or something that we don't find out about until 5 minutes before the funeral.  In the midst of a minor technical dilemma, Gary asks me about the DVD case for the slideshow. I tell him I think it's in the folder, but he says he just looked and it wasn't, so naturally I open up the folder to show him where it is and voila! There it is with a large brown  - totally fake - cockroach on top. Looks very real though...*sigh*

My baby turned 6 on the 30th and we had his birthday party last night-nothing big, just family & pizza, and cake & ice cream. Sully is totally into 'army men' so I had a military theme cake done and we put Lego Toy Story Army Men on top. 
Totally cute, yeah??  
Even cuter :)
