....awarded to Stacia and Todd Cardillo. Trinity had lost her tooth last night and she was very excited to put it under her pillow for the Tooth Fairy. Well, Todd and I crashed really hard at 9:30 p.m. and Trinity was still semi-awake. We couldn't do the "fairy" thing just then so I told Todd that when I get up early for class I will sneak in the room an put the dollar under her pillow and take the tooth.
I get up for class (WOD spin class = 18 miles) and I come home around 7 a.m. and there's Trinity looking very sad on the couch. I asked what was wrong and she said "the Tooth Fairy didn't come last night!" and she showed me her tooth. Talk about feeling like the biggest piece of shit. I played dumb and asked her if she really looked around her room because maybe the fairy could not put it in her little case that she had. I ran upstairs to get undressed and I crumbled up a dollar and stuffed it under her sheets. I called Trinity up to her room to make sure she really looked around. So she started going through her pillows and sheets and she saw the dollar. She was very happy but she also looked suspicious! I played the best "dumb" part ever and made up a story and suggestions as to why she probably didn't get the tooth or why she did not put the dollar in her case. Hook line and sinker baby! She didn't care at the point but she did care about getting her $$. I felt so much better but could not believe that we had forgotten. Bad Mommy!
After a few cocktails with our neighbor on Saturday night we came home and passed out. Too much play and not enough rest. Todd let me sleep in on Sunday morning until almost 8 a.m. It felt great but I felt bad for him because he was really tired too. Chilled out at home all morning doing laundry, taking baths and building a fort in the living-room with all the chairs, blankets and sheets. Looked through the Sunday paper while drinking tea and doing some serious NOTHING at home.
At 12 p.m. my father-in-law and his girlfriend came to the house and we all piled into the Tahoe and headed up to the Stafford Motor Speedway to see the Monster Truck Jam. It was hot, dirty and loads of fun! The noise of the trucks and the atmosphere was rocking! Trinity had to hide in the shade for a bit because she is not a sun fan unless there is water involved. The rest of us hung out on the bleachers eating dust and hooting and hollering at the trucks. We all looked like Pig Pen from Charlie Brown when we were done. My boobs were even dirty from the dust getting down my shirt and into my bra. What a great afternoon.
We drove home and drove right into Farmington to eat at Garlic Joe's or Joey Garlic's whatever it is called. I was so happy to slug some water and devour a pizza. We didn't really eat all day and the solid food was very welcoming.
Back home to another round of showers because we were so damn filthy. By 6:45 p.m. the kids (even Roxy) were all chilling out on the floor/couch watching TV and not saying a word. Everybody was very happy! I on the other hand had some quiet time on the computer paying bills and getting some photos organized! I feel better now that it is done!
Today is a day of nothing! First I am going to just chill at home and maybe mop the kitchen floor. We already made french toast. I need to get groceries and maybe take the kids to the movies to see the Smurfs. I grew up with those blue bastards and collected all of the figurines and even had sheets. My Mom still has the figurines at her house too! I would like to see the movie if I can get them there today. But we are all going to have chill time this afternoon with a nice nap for Roxy and reading time for T and L!
