Life at the Beach

Well today has been an interesting day.  My husband who has hurt his shoulder had two doctors appointments today.  One in the morning and one later in the afternoon.  Well the first one was close to home and we ended up with 3 hours between appointments.  Well you may think no big deal go home take a nap, do a few things, talk a walk on the beach, but no we had no stairs!!   We live in an apartment and on the second floor and we had NO stairs!!!!!!   That is our apartment upstairs on the left. 
NO STAIRS!!

So we killed some time by going to lunch and then hanging out at one of our friends house for awhile.  Well we left the house at 9am and by the time we got home they weren't even close to being finished.  In fact, the picture above was from 430p.  Well we had no where to go and just wanted to be able to go upstairs so we could one be in the A/C and two watch TV.  Well the workers didn't really speak English, our office staff had decided to leave for the day(which is totally typical of them), and our maintence(who would have a ladder) was no where to be found.   So my wonderful and hurt husband decided to climb up the back balcony, which was no easy feat and go through the sliding door (cuz we never lock it) and get the card to call the emergancy number for the office.  I thought that he was going to kill himself or at least add another injury to the 2 that he has already.  However, he got up there and after some words between us he found the card that I left on the living room table instead of putting back on the fridge.  I called the number and of course no answer.  Luckily I saw the maintence man and was able to communicate with him that we had no stairs and would like a ladder.  He went to check on it and 15 mins later came back with a ladder.  My little one went up first with her no fear self and I followed closely behind holding both her drinks with my purse wrapped around my neck.  UGH!  Well at least we were home.  Well, the next problem comes to the dog!!!!  He hasn't been walked since this morning and there is no way I can get him down that ladder to walk him so my option??   to put him out on the balcony and try to convince him he won't get a spanking for doing his business out there......not an easy feat, he didn't like this option.  Well it's 11pm at night and they are still working!!! and they are at the top now putting on the railing and it is supper loud of course it's Kaley's bedtime and there is no way she is going to fall asleep!

Tomorrow we have no plans to be in the car as it is extremely painful for my husband with his injuries, so we hope to go to the beach.  Oh yeah, our beach right now has 3 feet of sea grass....how delightful...life at the beach..gotta love it!!!!!
