Wednesday and my hands are full
December 13th 2006 19:20
Wednesday afternoon and I am miserable. Sorry I am writing so late but it has been a really busy morning. I spoke too soon the other day that my baby was feeling good now. I jinxed myself and now am paying for it dearly. By the way, I am not a big believer in superstition through life, I think it’s silly and no rational person would believe in it. In sports however, it is true. I am a nut with that, there is a lucky chair a lucky position to sit in within that chair and many more variations on that theme. So other than sports, I am a fairly rational person. But I did jinx myself with saying my kids were now healthy. I live in South Florida and there seems to be a bad stomach virus going around right now and yesterday my baby daughter got it. My wife walked in to her room in the middle of the night because she was crying badly and immediately the smell hit her face. It reeked and my wife said there was diarrhea everywhere. I am sorry to gross everybody out but this blog does state it is about a house Dad, so you were warned. Of course my wife has to go to work today so who gets to stay home with a stinky baby? Actually, I had my son home as well since he was being evaluated for speech therapy. He is 4 and has trouble on some words. I understand him but we are worried that other kids might not or make fun so we are doing it now while he is still young. Anyway, I had my mother watch stinky baby today while I took my son to the evaluation. My mother walks in and she said the house reeked as soon as she opened the door. I agreed with her because I smelled it everywhere, I couldn’t get it out of my nose. I felt bad, but better her than me for a few hours.
Winds up my son is okay but he will need some speech therapy. Not bad everything else is healthy but some therapy is okay. Better now than later. but some therapy is okay. Better now than later. The whole thing was supposed to take 2 hours but we were in and out in 25 minutes. I of course used the opportunity to go shopping since I told my mother that we would be a while. Yes, I took advantage of the situation but if you smelled my house you’d understand. Did all my holiday shopping today with my son there. He is at the age that I bought everything in front of him and he will forget by tonight and be surprised when he opens it on the holiday. My mother was surprised by all my packages when I came home but it was alright. Everybody would have done the same. Don’t worry, when I walked in, my daughter woke up from her nap and of course needed to be changed again with it leaking through her clothes. My mother fled and I am home trying to work with a sick baby and a son who wants my undivided attention in every endeavor he is undertaking. Yep, a good life.
I said yesterday that I would comment on my Mets but I got busy with the kids. Just as well, because I am getting sick of the Mets. They are still sitting back and letting everybody better themselves while we get one excuse after another as to why they couldn’t do something. I realized a long time ago how frugal Fred Wilpon was but it is still discouraging. They are raking in money and do not want to spend it on top tier talent. I am tired of excuses and very frustrated by the excuses. I will always be a Met fan but it is disheartening, I’m begging now, please improve the team!
Until later,
Jonathan
