Busy Day/Kirk's Family

Yesterday was the busy day. Jenise and Jessalynn had spent the night and we waited on Jeanette and Rob to bring Robbie so we could go swimming Saturday. Robbie got here an hour late but we still went to the pool. Jenise and Robbie were both afraid of the deep pool and Robbie adjusted quicker than Jenise. Jenise wouldn't trust her floatie, she had to cling to one of us, too, and preferred playing on the wide steps into the shallow end. Robbie was game to float around clinging to a floatie with one of us near to guide him but he seemed more thoughtful about the swim than thrilled. Jessalynn was a little put out that tJenise and Robbie needed so much attention because she is an old hand at this pool thing. She can and does go all over the pool with floaties, but I had Jeremy watch the little ones a couple of times and took Jessalynn swimming with me and that made things better. I left Jeremy at the pool with the kids for a half hour while I went and picked up Jessica from work and then I went back for a quick dip and we headed home around four because Jeremy had to be to work at four thirty. AND we had company over for a fajita dinner. Kirk's three daughters, one of their boyfriends, and an ex-boyfriend of Kirk's ex-wife, and four children (two belonging to the ex-wife's friend and two to Kirk's daughter). Jami was a nervous wreck about the planned dinner and yelling at Kirk for I'm not sure what while getting ready in the morning and then angry all through the visit because Kirk was drinking beer while he was bar-b-queing the fajitas, he had a total of four beers for which Jami still hadn't forgiven him when it was bed time, sleeping on the couch in the living room to express her anger through the first part of the night. I also went and picked up Jessica for the evening because Jami wanted her family properly represented. The evening went quite well aside from Jami's anger at Kirk. Kirk's daughters seem to be really sweet girls, the youngest almost seventeen and the oldest twenty two.
I was in terrible pain by the end of the day. I think it was playing at the pool, lifting the kids in and out and just playing too long for me and then rushing home to get the fajita dinner prepared. I could hardly walk when it was time to take Jessica home but I had Jeremy rub some Voltaren Jell on my back and I took some hydrocodone and Soma and feel quite a bit better this morning.
Today is going to be our hottest day yet with the temp prediction at 99 degrees. I am NOT looking forward to the times I have to get out today...
