March 14 - Did I mention I HATE crowds?!?

The day started off well. Alaina slept in a little more than usual. She got up early and ate a little but she went back to sleep and didn't want to get up until 8:30 which was really nice. So we came downstairs and let Daddy sleep a little longer. We watched some cartoons and played and then she wanted to eat and fell asleep. So, mom signs back on to work. Ugh. I really really dislike my job at this point in time. They have people doing things that are not part of our job and therefore, putting more work on those of us that are doing our job. And they just don't seem to get that they have way too much work for us to do to be doing things like that. If I hear someone say "Do more with less" or "I will look into it" one more time I am going to just lose my mind! Ugh, so anyway. I worked for like, three hours. Basically, until Alaina was hungry and I needed to stop and feed her. So after that Teddy decides we need to go do some more TV research. He wants to go to NFM and I am not at all looking forward to it. IT IS SATURDAY at NFM. Not the place you want to be. Once again, I hate crowds. People are rude and I just don't like dealing with them if I don't have to. But, we went. It was a beautiful day and a chance to get out of the house. So off we went with Alaina in tow. We got there, and there was NO WHERE to park. People were parking across the street!! The phrase "I told you so" immediately popped in to my mind, but, I refrained. We did somehow manage to find a spot not across the street. So we go in and they don't even have the TV that Teddy wants. They only had a smaller one and a bigger one. So Teddy decides we need to go check Sams Club. WHAT?!? The only place worse than Nebraska Furniture Mart on a Saturday is SAMS CLUB and of course the ghetto Wal-Mart. I tried, without success to talk him out of this. He was set on going. Oh my goodness. You want to talk about a CROWD of RUDE people. Oh my word. I don't even know how we found a parking spot. It must have taken 20 minutes. So we make it inside and, they don't have the right TV either. *Sigh and Shake my Head* BUT, Teddy wants to buy some bulk Gatorade, you know, since we are already there. So we get the Gatorade and I got some ink for my printer and a book for Alaina... Just getting around the store takes like 40 minutes. Then we get to the checkouts and every line is like five people deep. This took FOREVER and we still don't have a TV. By this time, Alaina is done with the whole shopping trip. She is ready for snack and a nap. So we went home and Teddy decides he is going back to Best Buy. I am out on this one dude. So he went alone, and of course, comes home with a TV, from Best Buy, where we were last night. Ugh. But hey, we checks ALL of our options. :oP
Anyway, Alaina likes the new TV, see?
