Oh happy day... NOT really, but busy one at that. With the whirlwind of the last few days, I am feeling like whooping some butt, so I plan on whooping this house into shape today. I got to bake a couple cakes for my Uncle Dicks meal after his funeral service tomorrow. I signed up for some desserts so I am making pumpkin bars. Yum. I also plan on making some veggie soup and taking that in too. Should be an interesting day at that. Clean house, cook, and then Cole gets out of school at One today. This means he will be home shortly after two. I plan on being set to go at Two and head out. I am going to do some MAJOR shopping today. I want to stockpile some canned goods, and get the cupboards full and ready for winter. I really really hate shopping in the winter time. It's such a PITA to get out and get Brody out in the cold with snowballs flying and get groceries. I hit up the county market 10/$10 deals this week, but that isn't even the tip of the iceberg. I really want to get veggies, soups, beans, and dry goods stockpiled so I know I don't have to go anyplace if I don't want to. I also need some household extras too, foil, baggies, tp, pt, laundry soap, diswasher soap, trash bags. You get the drift... this is going to be a BIG shopping trip, so before I can head out today, after I bake cakes, or while they are baking, I also need to clean out the van. Get my butt in gear for this trip! Sams, Aldis and Walmart here I come. Lookout! Cole's going to HATE me after this trip. I might have to BRIBE him with a little prezzie if he helps me out LOTS today!
Brody's new speech therapist is coming today, if she can find us? I hope she can get the directions I gave her. Might have to go to her rescue if she gets lost.
Well this crap isn't going to start itself, as bad as I want it to. I just can't get my rump going today. I'd rather sleep in! I've already gotten Cole up and off and Bill up, breakfast cooked, lunches made, and made coffee. Then laundry going, diswasher unloaded from last night and I'm on my first "break" already! Ha ha ha. Many more of these to come today I'm sure. Still not completely up to par, my cough comes and goes, so does this runny nose. It's frustrating.
To top it off, I FORGOT to bring in my plants last night. Looks like they might be DEAD now. It was COLD out there last night. Oops. Guess I will have to spend the $ on Flowers again next spring. Ugh. This just pisses me off because I planned on bringing them in, forgot. Scatterbrained me. I am worthless if it isn't in my phone or my calendar. Geesh. I am getting old.
Watching Tv. So they are doing a Reynolds Wrap commercial about cooking turkey. Why in the heck don't my turkeys EVER look like that? I am sooooo craving turkey right now. I am ready for Thanksgiving to get here. I just told Grandma Jean that last night. Sounds so yummy now. Turkey, taters, gravy, stuffing... mmmmm best part is, I can EAT a little this year! I am healed up enough now I can enjoy the holidays. Speaking of holidays, Mom got me my fireplace for my living room for Christmas yesterday. It's beautiful. I want it NOW! I'm sooooo excited for this!
Wore my new belt yesterday. Because my new size 14/15 jeans are falling off me. I have no butt to hold them up. I've never really wore a belt before. I know... weird, but honestly people, fat people don't do belts! I must say it did help keep me from pulling up my britches all day long, that was a BONUS!
I love my husband. Don't know why I'm saying this today more than any other day, but he's pretty special. I just think sometimes I don't give him credit for what he does for me. He's my rock. He's the one who holds me up when I'm weak and makes me feel like I am on top of the world. He's been so supportive of me this week, with all the things going on. Last night he kinda needed me a bit and it made me feel special to be there for him when he needed advice. I am honored he thinks enough of my opinion on things to even ask. I know I do the books and keep things in line, but major decisions I leave up to him. This is all still so new to me, even after 12 years of marriage, farming is NOT something I am used to. He's lived it his whole life. He knows the things I don't get. I just feel special to take part in things with him. We are quite the team.
I'm really off now... geesh I'm GOING!!!!!
