The Next Few Days

The next few days are going to be crazy, and I’m already exhausted. I’m still not feeling quite right, and I’ve got so much to do…

Today Thade had school, and I took a little extra time at home to wash a few loads of laundry, and return some calls. Before school was over I thought I would save a little time and energy, so Dylan and I headed out to run errands. We made a trip to Walgreens for travel sized items, and then we made a run to the Post Office for stamps.

While we were at the Post Office, Dylan spotted an adorable kitty hiding in the bushes. I had to get a picture, this little stray was too adorable, and it had the brightest blue eyes. I swear I’m not a crazy cat lady, not just yet…

After the Post Office, we were off to get Thade from school. Once we had Thade in tow, then we were back across town to grab lunch to take to my hubby at work.

After lunch we were finally on the way home, and all of us are so tired…

Thade is a little grumpy too.

Tomorrow looks like more of the same… Running around getting everything ready for Dad’s trip, and still keeping up with all of the extra things that need done around the house. Time to grab some more coffee, this girl is getting tired.

Filling Up

Well the weather is getting ready to get really really cold, so I ran to the store this morning to get a few much needed items.

I picked up two bags of poly-fil for the bears. I only have 5 more to turn, before I can start the stuffing. Dylan has already pre-tested all of the bears, by giving them all big hugs, even though they are flat.

I’m also stocking up the snacks (again) and baking a loaf of bread today too. Yesterday I made a batch of Cocoa Krispies treats for the kids, and I think today I’ll make a Chocolate Bundt Cake to have on hand for dessert tonight.

Stay warm and toasty today, I hope the weather isn’t too cold in your neighborhood.

Time To Get Back To It

Today we are back to the everyday morning routine, and Thade is very ready to get back to preschool. Both of the boys were wide awake and ready to go at 6:45 a.m. Dylan and I will be busy running errands while Thade is having fun at his schools belated Christmas party. Today we’ll also be taking James lunch at work. It looks like it is going to be a busy Monday!

What do you have planned today? Are your kiddos back to school too?

All About the Errands

Well today is one of those days that will probably put me in a bad mood quickly… I’m running lots of errands that I’m not too happy about today.

First off property taxes… enough said, I’m grumpy.

Then on the the hospital to pay a bill that insurance wouldn’t pick up… yeah I’m getting a grumpier.

Then to Wal-Mart, crowds, grumpy people, yeah I’m one of them today too…

At least James is watching the boys for me while I run the errands, so I won’t have two kiddos in tow, so at least that is something to be happy about.

Last Chance Friday

Today is Thade’s final day at VBS, and he is a little sad that his fun week at VBS is already over. He has been asking what are we going to be doing next week. I have him signed up for another VBS, and I’ll be volunteering in either the Toddler Crafts or the Nursery, and bringing cookies too. I’m bringing Dylan along too. I think it is going to be a lot of fun for all of us, and I know that Thade is already looking forward to the next VBS.

Since I only have one kiddo to chase after this morning, I’m going to run over the the Car Wash and detail my hubby’s car. It really needs to be done, and I thought it would be a nice surprise for him. It is still cool in the morning, so I think I can get the task accomplished. I just hope Dylan doesn’t mind the sound of the vacuum…

Yesterday we were planning on going to lunch, but we decided to head home and I made super tasty quesadillas. We might go out for lunch today, it would be nice, and I won’t have to heat up the kitchen. I’ll probably swing by McDonald’s and grab a Happy Meal for Thade, he has done a great job at VBS this week!

It is also county fair time this weekend, and we might go and check out the rides. It is so hot by midday, and the boy’s have switched to an 8:00 p.m. bedtime, so that doesn’t leave too much time in the evening to get out and ride the rides. We’ll see if we make it, it is just too hot for Dylan.

Do you have big weekend plans, and a busy Friday to get through.
