Is It Saturday Yet Randoms

I have waited for this week to come for what seems like forever! In just a few short days (4 to be exact) me and Maddy will be headed down to the beach for a few days. It has been extremely hard to focus at work, but I haven't let myself slip THAT much lol. Last month was a horrible week for me at work so after a weekend of prayer and tears I have gotten back on track the best I can. Monday went pretty smooth at work. Monday actually went smooth all the way around. Maddy turned into someone I didn't even know at school and happily gave me a kiss and said, "Goodbye mommy" as she went and played. I was in total shock! My mom was able to pick her up for me so I wasn't stuck working until 10:00 p.m. It felt so good knowing once I put her to bed I could actually do whatever I wanted. In case people get the wrong impression on that last statement I am only talking about the fact that I didn't have to work. I always have to work after putting her to bed and it burns me out so much. I wake up and work and when I'm done working I pretty much go to sleep because I have to get up early the next morning. Today has not gone smooth at all. It started out ok, but I realized after dropping Maddy off at school that I left my house key in the house and of coarse it was locked because nobody was home. I had to call my mom to come let me in and after talking with her I realized I had pulled her out of a meeting. I felt horrible! Work didn't go so well either...it's like the claims decided to wait until I'm ready to go on vacation to get real tricky. I'm not sure how I'm going to clean them up before I leave, but I guess the only thing to do is pray.
I have been trying to pack throughout the week because we are supposed to leave around 4 a.m. Saturday and if I don't get done with work until 10 and then have to pack me AND Maddy I will never get to bed and I am driving. I have a feeling I will be depending on Red Bull to get me through the drive. I have Maddy's clothes packed but I can't get her fully packed until Friday. Sometime I have to go to the store to get last minute items and really not sure how that is going to happen because we are on OT.

I still have no idea when I will officially be moving out and it's really starting to annoy me but I really do think it's all for a reason. I'm trying to be patient but some days I get real frustrated. I just need my manager to put in a ticket at work and then I can move...silly manager's.

I really hope to get lots of pictures and video at the beach and I really hope to have a fun time. I'm trying not to have any expectations and so far I've done a pretty good job. The only thing I know for sure is when we first get to Florida we are heading to the water park because the condo won't be ready. I'm a little nervous about the water park but I've survived one water park with her last year so hopefully this year I can do the same. She keeps talking about the water and the sand box and her toys at the beach. She seems to be getting excited as well.

I can't wait till the movie What to Expect When You're Expecting comes out on DVD!

I found a new to me show I love called Storm Chasers. Weather has always been interesting to me...science was one of my favorite subjects in school. I've been trying to find the app they use to show tornadoes and stuff and finally did, but it cost $9.99. I found some free radar maps and here is how our weather has been the past couple of days

This was the only bad storm we had, but it has been raining. Whenever storms come our way I am constantly looking at the clouds to see what they are doing and trying to predict if it is going to be severe or not.

Maddy can sing Old McDonald Had a Farm...this isn't the best she sings it, but she is getting really annoyed with me always having a camera in her face lol.
