subtitle: Life is uncertain. Eat dessert first.
I am a really nice person. I have my moments of totally bitch on wheels at times but I really and truly in my heart of hearts am a Nice person. I need a break though. Luckily, thanks to a really great friend, I'll be getting a break soon enough.
Nana still isn't doing all that well. I got a message from my brother today that her breathing is getting shallower but that she's still alive. Hopefully she'll pass soon but as one of the nurses that I talked with on Saturday said, she's a stubborn lady. This might drag itself out a bit longer.
I did get lucky today twice though. 1st instance was at Old Navy. My brother had gone online to get some presents for A&L and had them shipped to my mom's house. There was 2 of everything he had ordered except for one item that stated on the receipt would be shipped separately. So we waited, and waited. I finally called the Customer Service number and found out that it was no longer available but that I could try to find it at a retail store or exchange the one that I had for something else. So Mom and I along with the girls headed over to the mall today and found the item we needed. The only downside was that it was a 2T and not a 3T but now the girls can wear them somewhat together - A is more of a 3T and L is more of a 2T lately. Best part... they only cost me $5.99 total. The second instance was at Payless Shoes since I've been looking for some slippers for the girls that they can hopefully wear and not outgrow in a few weeks. I came upon a BOGO 50% off sale. I also found one pair of Dora slippers for L in size 7-8 and one pair of Princess slippers for A in size 7-8. The clerk was so nice and helped me clip all the tags so that the girls could wear them as they strolled the mall in their umbrella strollers. Total cost with the BOGO was $14.99 since the Princess ones came up at $12.99 and the Dora ones were $4 but I got them for half that or $2.
The girls have been putting us through the wringer lately since they have been cooped up inside for too long. So I took them to Grandma's yesterday to let them run around and play and hopefully nap. While there Anna told me that I am her best friend... awww... and Lily finally took a nap. Anna also has a new saying that we love to say back to her.. 'Come back here.... I like you.' They've also had some really bad runny noses lately too. Last night I finally got Anna to take some medicine and tonight when I offered it to her she willingly took more. If only I could get Lily to take some too. The poor kid - Lily- has been snoring so badly lately that she is rivaling her daddy.
Oh one last cuteism.. lately when you ask Anna a question or say that she's - fill in the blank - she'll say 'No I'm Anastasia'. Too cute.
