Unemployed

I am officially unemployed! I don't think I like it. It wouldn't be so bad if I knew I were getting unemployment. It wouldn't be so bad if we had a savings! Nope, nothing! I know now that we have to get at least 2 months built up of ONE of our incomes in the savings. We haven't even started feeling the crunch, but I know it is coming. That is the worst part.

Blake has been running a fever since Tuesday afternoon. I made an appointment for him yesterday, and they say, "he has a virus". No ear infection, just a bug. Don't get me wrong, I am glad he doesn't have an ear infection, or anything serious, but I want to be able to treat him with something other than Motrin or Tylenol.

He did wake up happy this morning though! He slept in until about 8, and Joe & I were getting worried, because he was over an hour late waking us up. I walked out of our room just as he was coming in. He watched some cartoons while I got ready, and after breakfast, we went shopping. I know, shopping when you don't have the funds??? I only spent $4.32. Carter's was having a sale, and I found a cute fall jacket for $3.99! I couldn't pass it up. We went to Chic-Fil-A and got our free meal. Two weeks ago, Joe brought home dinner, and they forgot Blake's meal. We called, and got a free adult meal and kid's meal! Anyway, we ate, and then it was play time! Blake played for about 45 minutes. Lots of kids were coming in and out and then a cute little 3 year old came in. We should have left. He was being a little mean to Blake, but nothing too bad. He comes down the slide, gets up, and his pants are wet. Mom & Dad wisk him away and it's just Blake again. Then I hear, "OOOOOOOOOOOOHHH, pretty...Water!" And splashing with his hands and feet. Picture me, climbing up to the top of the playscape, trying to carry a screaming toddler down who is covered in someone else's urine!!! And, of course, it was through the tunnel the furthest away from the steps!

I came out and told this nice lady that someone else's kid peed in the playscape, and they needed to clean it, and all she said was, "oh-you want a refill". Granted, she didn't speak much English, but still. I said nothing about a refill! I told the manager, and he sent one of the high schoolers up there!
