It's Finally Friday!

Whew! The week is over! It's been a long one. . .Here's an overview of our week:

Monday: Jeremy starts a new job. Jackson's daycare calls to say he is sick. Jeremy takes an early lunch to pick him up, then I meet them at home. Take Jackson to the doctor - he just has a cold/virus (no ear infection!).

Tuesday: I stay home with Jackson. He's pretty happy to be so congested, but he is still running a fever.

Wednesday: Jeremy re-arranges his work schedule so that he can stay home with Jackson and I go back to work. Wednesday night around midnight - our electricity goes out (during the storms, a tree on our street fell on the power lines).

Thursday: I take a shower by flashlight and feed Jackson by candelight and flashlight. He doesn't want to eat because he is more interested in the candle than his bottle or cereal. I take Jackson to school because he is feeling better (no fever). I go to work with wet hair (sorry, no pic of that!). Come home from work, still no power. Power finally comes on around 6 pm (YEA!). Jackson is fussy - only had one 45 minute nap at school today! :) He goes to bed early. Jeremy comes home from work as I discover that we have no working cable or phone line. We actually read books and go to bed early.

Friday: Cable guy calls me at 4:30 pm to say our cable should be working now. Phone people tell me that we might not have service until Saturday at 9 pm. Jeremy is sad - no internet until Saturday night!?! Phone line is actually restored tonight around 7 pm (Jeremy is happy because we now have cable AND internet!) Woo hoo!

The picture of Jackson says it all. . .thank goodness it's the weekend! Hope you have a good one!

Sorry for such a crazy week, especially being Jeremy's first wk at his new job. I hope the wkend was more restful and relaxing, but since J is still sick it sounds like you guys probably didn't get the rest you needed. Keep us updated on J.
