Want to go to church but…
…its hard. Joshua will scream or cry when we go somewhere with a lot of people and loud in enclosed place and won’t sit still. We tried to go to church quite of few times before, but we had to stay in the hallway for the whole service. Its a sensory issue. I guess when I think about it, just being there is what counts.
A Korean couple came in to my store today and asked me to sell the business to him. He said young people like us should do something else. We told him we just bought this and probably we don’t want to sell. He said he’ll keep coming back. I was like… Um ok…
Jays needs to pick up the kids in few minutes. I get a little worried when I’m here by myself.
Yesterday, a customer came to refill the water for his 4 gallon fish tank. He was here or the second time. I was eating late lunch when he entered. He placed the money on the table. I couldn’t tell where he put it. I had to kind of feel around the table to find the money and had to ask him where he put the money at. He seemed to be startled. He said, “Its right there” and pointed it. I replied, “I’m sorry. I’m blind.” He apologized and said he didn’t know and said, “How come I didn’t notice that last time when I was here?” “Well, a lot of people don’t realize right away. But its ok.” He and I exchanged couple more words and he left.
2 days ago, a Mexican couple came in. The guy came to the table and asked me in Spanish. “Do you speak spanish?” I answered with a question in spanish. “How many gallons of water do you have?” He was please that I spoke to him in spanish. I guess they couldn’t speak English. So we spoke in spanish the whole time. He told me how many gallons and I gave him the price. He asked me where I was from then asked me how to say thankyou in Korean. He first said “Arigato” but I told him that was Japanese and told him its “gam sa hab ni da”. It was fun.
I’m hand washing most of the kids’ clothes, but I need those board thing that’s made for that purpose. I think its just Korean and Japanese thing. I probably have to pick it up in L.A. or ask my mil if she has it in her store.
Days are flowing too fast. Its like only few hours a day not 24 hours. I’ll be 32 next Monday. I started OD when I was like 21 or 22 years old.
My baby woke up and Jays left to pikc up the kids.
