EOD 10-16-08

All in all I would say the day went well, everything on my list was accomplished except a few stores.Oh well, money saved till another day. I have numerous times set the alarm for 5am and always reset it not feeling up to dragging myself from the bed. I decided to give myself until 5:30 hoping an extra 30 minutes would improve the situation. I still did not want to get up, but it was a little easier. I drug my self out of my warm cozy bed, kissed my husband goodbye, and started the coffee. I did 20 minutes of a light workout and realized what an uncoordinated goober I really am. Dance is soooo not my thing, however all my Tybo workouts are on VHS and I broke the video player so I am stuck with DVD's that make me feel as ungracefull as one can imagine.
I was smart for the first time today when it came to the kitchen. Normally, ding-a-ling Momma cleans the kitchen and has it all bright and sparkly, opens the fridge and says "Oh No, I need to clean the fridge" I would clean out the fridge making the once pretty kitchen look like I never touched it. Today I had an AH HA moment and actually cleaned the fridge out before I started on the kitchen. I moved the microwave and cleaned under it which I am embarrassed to say was the first time in 6 months it had been done. I even organized the spice cupboard.
We had pasta salad and homemade bread with butter for lunch today. Bug and Jewel hated the pasta salad so I put a little PB on their bread and opened up the last jar of homecanned peaches the neighbor sent up. (last year we made plum jelly and they did peaches we shared so did they) Moose was soooo good today I forgot to put him down for a nap. Shame on me. After I did the dishes from lunch, I changed my clothes, and loaded the kids into the truck. Everyone in the entire world must have been payed today because here it was 1pm so everyone should be working, Yeah Right, that place was packed like it was Disney Land. The shopping that normally takes me 30 minutes took me an hour and a half. By the time I got the groceries payed for, everyone loaded in the truck, and the groceries into the truck, I had 45 minutes before Peanut was due home. It takes 15 minutes to drive home so all the other stores were sooo out of the question. I ended up getting the stuff I wanted from the $store at the grocery store, but I still need to hit Walmart sometime before the end of the weekend.
I got home started the dough for dinner rolls, and then put away the groceries. Dinner turned out great. Dessert was a big hit (cubed pieces of chocolate cake layered with chocolate pudding topped with whipped cream)
I did something I never ever do. I washed the dinner dishes immediately following dinner. I have a pretty kitchen to wake up to. I even figured out the timer on the coffee maker and will have hot coffee when I wake up. No work. Isn't that cool?
I thought I was done for the day, but Daddy has to leave town for a field excersise soo even after me getting on him all week to pack, he waited til the last minute and now wants my help, soooooo I will try to get my list up first thing in the morning or maybe later tonight. Have a great day.
