Pass the Margaritas Please

I'm not much of a drinker and I haven't had a drink since Jan. 2009 but tonight I could sure use one. Today was just one of those days where you don't want to get out of the bed and face the day. Unfortunately Corbin was ready to face the day at 3 am, and since I didn't get to sleep until almost 2 it didn't make for the best start to the day. Thankfully hubster comes home around 6:15 so I got a much needed break. My great Aunt passed away a few days ago and today was the viewing. Since my mom has been battling the stomach flu (thanks to my boys for sharing) I ran a few errands for her this morning, picking up a meat and cheese tray for family, delivering it, paying a few bills, the usual. I did slow down long enough to enjoy my lunch with my boys. We had our lunch on our back porch, Corbin's new favorite place to eat. It's so cute because when I was little whatever my mom or dad had on their plate always tasted better than what I had, even if we had the same thing, well today I've noticed that Corbin thinks mine must taste better too! And that's just fine because I'm still that way even today...whatever Chris has always tastes better than mine. Anyway my car had an appointment today to get her front end readjusted (I'm beginning to think I might need mine too ha!). Well what was supposed to be just an hour long 74.99 job turned out to be much more. The place closes at 5 and they called me at 4:30 to tell me that they couldn't do it because I needed new ball joints-which would cost...wait for it because trust me it's dramatic...

953.00!!!!!!!

Once I picked my jaw up off the floor I made sure that they knew not to touch my car I was coming to get it. My day immediately got worse. I just had new tires put on my car that was a whooping 590.00 and now if I don't get my front end aligned it will ruin my tires. My day went down hill fast. But what can you do? I guess Corbin will just have to flip burgers for a living because there is no way we can afford to live and save money for college or anything else for that matter! Chris said not to worry and to enjoy the day. He is the best at trying to make me forget my problems. We got dressed up and went to dinner before we had to go to the viewing tonight at the funeral home. I know most funerals are super sad, but I was really happy to spend some time with family. I feel like Corbin is growing up so fast and my parents and my sis and her family are the only ones that really know Corbin. Corbin enjoyed running around with the M&M girls. *my cousin and his wife's initials are MM-both of them are and all the girls have M names-therefore they are the M&M family-which is where I got the idea for all C names while we were naming shopping* To make the most of our night when we left the funeral home I treated my boys to frozen yogurt at The Mix. If you live in Newnan you must try this place!!! We love it. Hubster and I actually got the same amount of ice cream tonight... 10.9 oz. each. I think he had three different kinds of yogurt, I had two and a ton of toppings. I decided to go healthy tonight, I had Very French Vanilla and Key Lime yogurt, mangos, strawberries, raspberries, coconut, walnuts, pecans, mango sauce, kiwi sauce, and marshmallow creme! Oh was it ever good!!!! Then to top off the night we came home and jumped on the trampoline in the dark. So I guess it was about an even day of goods and bads. Not sure what I will do about my car...but there is always tomorrow so I'm not going to spend the night worrying. Think I'll go pour myself a cherry Dr. pepper and snuggle on the couch with the hubster :)
