Ow my achin' lower back

Unfortunately, it seems I may have lifted with the back inadvertantly a few times last night while helping li'l bro move. Fortunately, he managed to rally the troops and we had many hands assisting, which was GREAT. It took approximately 4 hours and afterwards, I brought him home since his new apt. is not 100% ready yet including the bathroom, and this way he could sleep and shower in comfort and also we could come to the medical center together this a.m.

More unfortunate news: it's only the 3rd day of Lent and I have cussed about a dozen times, including about 8 times last night and 2 this a.m. Oops.

Busy busy weekend coming up and it starts early today at 1:30 when I must leave work, head up north to pick up the baby, and meet the nice lady from the county back at our house so she can observe us with S interacting as a family. Tomorrow I have to work at Job #2 and the baby will hang out all day with my mom and grandfather as usual, but when I get off of work she and I will have a little fun b/c a coworker at Job #2 is having her wedding reception and the baby is coming with me as my date! That'll be a fun time, and I'm expecting to enjoy lots of Mexican food. I tried to urge the coworker to order a Nacho Fountain, like in Talladega Nights, but I don't think she did!

Third job note: Well, I was thinking I could start working p/t at the jail, making a fat $28/hour, but it looks like it's not to be. They are going to require us to work 8-hour shifts and here are our choices: 6am-2pm, 2pm-10pm, or 10pm-6am. They also want us to work a minimum of 2 times/week. NOT GOING TO HAPPEN IN MY CURRENT LIFE. I can't create time I don't have out of thin air. I'm upset about losing out on all that dough, and I guess I could give up Job #2 in order to attempt to do this, but man, Job #2 is SO easy and 90% stress-free. It's 5 min. away from my mom who can watch the baby for me and I'm grateful for everything about it. The money would've been sweet at the jail, but I'm not simply not desperate enough to sell my soul and give up any more time and happiness. And talk about a stressful place to work!!!

Fun trivia note: I found out recently that Anna Nicole Smith's mom is, in fact, a retired deputy from my very own sheriff's dept. She retired just a couple of years ago and her name at the time was Virgie Hart. I find that mildly interesting.
