Stand by family

Well, yesterday was good.  Worked all day and I think the formulin fumes must have not been taken up totally by the hood because I was feeling nauseous and a little sickly/headachy. It rained, went to wal-mart and kroger to get travel-sized stuff then went over to Josh's.  We read for a while and then decided to go to the mall.  Didn't figure out what mall to go to for a while on the road, then decided on Kenwood as it's been a while and traffic shouldn't be bad.  Then, neither of us remembered how to get there BUT, thankfully there are two Cincinnati maps in my car.  We got there in good time, with Josh pushing the Camry as much as it could go...it's not meant to be driven very fast so it would only go so fast...either way, we made really good time. I am glad I am capable of reading a map. Kenwood was nice, he found a lot of things to put on his "shopping list" as in to come back later and get.  There were a lot of neat things and the mall is pretty.  I bought a shirt from Express. I didn't even bother trying it on because I was just taken with it.  I saw it and instantly went "I want that."  That doesn't happen all that often.

Here it is. The flowers are 3-D and it's like individual petals that sorta flop around.  They go really well with my hot pink guess shorts. Outfit of the day.

I have yet to find black pumps I like, and maybe more dress sandals/shoes. Definitely replacement metallic flats at some point, pref. Steve Madden because they last a while and fit me well. Umm...apart from that I am hoping to get a clutch/wallet from Fossil sometime when they get new stuff in, something with maybe a credit-card wallet and can hold my phone and maybe even my camera.  Something durable, not easy to fade, and maybe leather.  That, and I like Fossil watches and some of their accessories.

Cheesecake factory is delicious. So delicious.

Still haven't watched that movie yet but that's OK.

Today has been eventful enough.  It's sort of hard to sleep when I am at home because everybody goes to bed before I get home and then wake up before I do so it's noisy, and sometimes I end up just waking up because of it.  I also woke up a bunch last night, maybe due to dreams.  But, it was mildly stressful.

There were visitors today.  They drove up from Mississippi (fun to type) because their old house here isn't sold and the people who were renting it sorta wrecked it and they have to deal with that.  Anyway they have two little boys who I personally think are total brats.  They're a few years older than Luke and refused to play with him which upset him.  Then they'd bully and blame everything on him.  Of course he will throw things at them if they come up to his face and threaten to throw things at him.  What do they have to prove? Yelling at a kid who has no idea what you are saying is not very nice.  Blaming him for breaking toys that were broken to begin iwth is not cool.  Then we were at some other kid's house and they had a lot of toys, thankfully their little boy (Also Luke so we'll refer to him as Big Luke even though he's probably like 9y/o) is well mannered.  I mean Luke did make a mess but he did help clean some of it up later, but not all of it was his fault.  The other little boys made a mess of the living room, at least Luke stayed in the playroom.  Big Luke just went, "Oh, that's not broken." and "I can fix that" and "you don't have to clean that up" He's a lot more well mannered and doesn't just tattle.  Unless you saw it happen and be broken you cannot prove anything.  It is not nice to put the blame on somebody who can't defend himself so I had to.  Luke was nice to help clean up and at least their mother knows that it wasn't all his fault and that her children bullied him, but they bully each other too so she understood. Poor Luke. He's my baby brother and no matter what happens I'd stand by him.  I know he can be a handful sometimes but he was pretty well behaved while he was there.  At least he played by himself in that room for like an hour just running trains around.  He only made a mess because he was searching for hotwheels cars and trains that were probably in the bottom of some box.

Even at such a young age, there is conflict haha.

What to do with the rest of my day? I don't know. I've been trying to figure out if Josh's parents need help moving stuff but I don't know when that's supposed to be...

Going to the Air Force museum in Dayton tomorrow with my family.  We've never been so that should be fun. Luke is gonna be so excited to see all those airplanes, it'll be good. It better be open.
