dramatic tension
BIG panic this evening. I nearly had a heart attack. Poor Lexie rolled right off my bed, hit her head on the carpet. I swear my lungs contracted into my throat, it was aweful. Never more shall I be on the computer while she is playing on the bed behind me. Pillows don't seem to be enough to constrain her anymore. Oh it was aweful.
Well, it wasn't too aweful because she got injured or anything, let me clear that up. It's aweful on the nerves of me and her father steve. My sister, her mother, knew she was okay even if she was sleeping. I think my main problem was that the whole thing was my fault. Steve... well he's just a worrier, it's a trait of his family's. MY family on the other hand is more level headed, I guess I haven't developed that trait yet. More expirience, and I think it will make itself more apparent.
Now I'm trying to chill out, I took an aleve and ate some cookies with pizza. Alos, I turned on some Enigma, (return to innocence) very relaxing music.
What we need to do tonight is pack because this weekend we're off to Key West, one of my brother in law's friends is renting a big beach house and invited us up for the weekend. Those people are great, so trusting. After only knowing me fore like 2 and a half days, Sheri (wife) was asking if I'd be available to baby sit next spring break up in Salt Lake City. WOW, you know? And she has the cutest little girls, even if they are a bit roudy.
Shari also asked me if I wanted to house sit for them for 11 days over this week and next. Meaning being at her house while I'm supposed to be here taking care of Lexie, and not joining them at the beach house. She offered money, but come on! I only have 2 more weeks left to play nanny with my wittle niece. I'm not gonna spend 11 days at another house, not even mentioning that there would be no one to watch Lexie.
2 weeks... *sigh* and I let her roll off the bed... Good job, Nanny McPaige.
Alright enough self loathing for me, I'm off to try and a pack a bit.
