Getting behind

Well, do you remember in an earlier blog, I mentioned that I kept a list. Well I have accomplished all of it, just to add some more but I did make progress. Just got off the phone with a friend that let me know that I hadn't blogged all week. So maybe I wasn't doing as good as what I thought I did.
This week, Mariano and I watched his video from his family. Well they have never seen me or Aydan. I am not so concerned that they haven't seen me or want to see me, but I have been pushing the issue about recording some of Aydan or just send a picture. Mariano has been against it for several different reasons but I asked him just once. So while listening to the video his parents asked to see where he lived @ and so forth. I just remembered that I didn't his pictures developed like he wanted..oops! Guess we will wait til next month, it was only pictures of him and his cousins that we saw in Florida from like, um, last May. That's bad....anyways so Mariano video recorded our house, inside and out, and then he recorded Aydan just in his diaper playing on the ground then when he was dressed playing with some toys. I was satisfied but he asked me to say something in the camera, of course all the things that I can say about them, I was completely speechless while on camera. But I said a few things, don't remember, Mariano translated and we are going to wait to see how big a bomb we landed in Guatemala.
Aydan is asleep, he fell asleep in my arms for an hour and a half (LOVE IT!!!), then I had to fix supper... so he is kind of whining and waking up at the same time. Sometimes he will do that for like 30 minutes, he has a hard time waking up. Guess who he gets that from?
I am cooking supper for Mom. One of her favorite dishes. BRB...had to feed Aydan his supper. He ate some apricots/apples/pears for the first time, at least the apricots, and he loved them. Back to cooking supper, I try to do something for her to 'repay' her for watching Aydan. She doesn't want any money she says that she is getting 'paid' by spending time with Aydan. But I don't do things every week like I should, but I do try. Gift certificates to resturants works good especially Olive Garden.
Well those who are wondering I had an interview today at Saft in the purchasing department. I will be the Jr. Buyer and part time receptionist. If I get the job, it will be more on the hour with less over time. So I am kind of making up the difference. It will be in a clean environment. I work with Carbon Black and it is definitely black. I got bumped from my department with last December's lay off so that is where I got stuck. Saft has a certification process in order to recieve top pay. I have one year to certify on everything to remain at top pay. That includes making the nasty black stuff which makes you look like Black Mamie when you are done, unless you where one of the jump suits which is difficult wearing a skirt, plus I dont' think God would approve. So I have been trying to find ways to be able to do that and still get my pay. The easiest way is to get the job in the office. So please pray, the one that will be doing the 'picking' is on vacation all next week, in which he will think of someone and let us know on the following Monday. I hate the wait. They are four individuals who were picked to interview out of 30. So I think that is pretty good for me, just pray that I make it to #1 position. I know of two others interviewed, but neither of us three know who the fourth individual is. All of us are from Saft so it is someone on site, just who?
Tomorrow we are going to find Aydan a car seat. He should of had one already but we were waiting til I got paid for my over time. We were going to go to Tennessee this weekend but I think we have decided to wait to the end of the month, at least we are just thinking about and by the way my anniversary is next Wednesday. Four years, very, very, very, hard to believe, but that is just how my God works!!!
