New year entry

Hey all. I hope u’re (still) enjoying your new years. I’ve been sleeping all day. I was babysitting one of my friends’ kids. I didn’t get home til around 6. I was struggling to stay away. But never the less, it was fun watching Laila. She’s a great kid. She didn’t get into anything. She just sat up and watched movies with me. At midnight, she was still up. Her mom called and asked if she was in bed. So of course, I put her to bed while I was on the phone with one of my friends. Put on a video for her and soon she fell asleep. But not for long. After about 30 mins, I heard something upstairs. So I went to check on her and the poor thing was crying. I guess she was missing her mom. So I picked her up and brought her downstairs with me. She was knocked out then. I ended up missing the ball drop cause we were watching a movie, but it really wasn’t no big deal. Though I did get a bunch of txt msgs wishing me a happy new year. (Why don’t people call anymore?)

I sat on the phone with my friend til a good 5 a.m. until I was getting too tired to talk. So I let them go and called her mom to see why she hadn’t checked in. Turns out she had fallen asleep. So she came home and we talked for a bit and she brought me home. I crashed the minute my head hit the pillow. I didn’t get up til 2 today. Then I fell asleep again later today. I’m just now fully waking up. But yeah, I’d babysit the kid again. But next time, I wish her mother would let me know where she is. I thought she’d be gone til 2 but she didn’t get in til 6. No calls or nothing. Like I said, I was struggling to stay awake so I sat up and watched tv, while my friends txtd me a happy new year (both drunk and not)
So yeah, my new years was alright. Hope you’re enjoying the rest of yours.

You sound like a good babysitter 🙂 I’m sure the girl appreciated having you there..her Mom should have called but it was prob. just the excitement of New Years or something.
