After sleeping for a decent seven hours, I woke up half an hour late and stumbled into the living room to make sure the boys had everything they needed to leave for school. Ryan needed his violin, music folder, gym shoes, and his snack contribution for a school party today, Nathan needed a hat, gloves and snow boots because we had a quarter inch of snow last night and his teacher said they couldn’t go out for recess if they weren’t dressed properly.
Because I overslept and hadn’t made coffee, Nathan tried to make himself a cup of Taster’s Choice instant (the hazelnut flavor is so good) by microwaving a cup of water. But the cup was too hot and he set it down too fast and sloshed scalding hot water on his hand. He was okay after running his hand under cold water for a minute. By then it was too late to start over so he went without coffee this morning.
After getting Kaitlyn up, we went into the kitchen to get her breakfast and me some coffee, where I discovered there was no milk for her cereal and no more liquid OR powdered coffee creamer for my coffee. I made the Taster’s Choice instant for myself anyway, made a big cup of hot chocolate, then poured some of that into my coffee and gave the rest to Kaitlyn, who was eating DRY Cocoa Krispies with a spoon.
Then Chris told me, as he was leaving for work, that we have no baby wipes (Kaitlyn is mostly using the potty but still has the occasional accident). Of course we don’t. Why does everything have to run out all at once?
And for some reason, although I’m trying to go to bed earlier and catch a catnap during the day if I can, I feel really tired. I was doing so well on the Effexor for the last two weeks, so I don’t know if maybe I caught a little bug or something, but I feel like I could get back in bed and sleep another four or five hours, easy.
I still have probably 20 reviews to write, giveaways to start, Christmas cards to order, decorations to haul up from the basement, plus regular day to day housework and stuff. Ugh. What I’d really like is for a maid service to come and clean the house while a professional nanny plays educational and entertaining games with Kaitlyn and a chef prepares a week of meals. While I sleep. That’s not too much to ask, right?

Well you beat me to posting, but I know what you mean it doesn’t feel like a Friday. I kept telling the kids, no today is NOT your, last day, you go to school tomorrow too. Umm, yep, I thought it was only Thursday.
I am also behind in reviews but trying to get them done. As for things running out…. I would be out of milk but Hy-vee had 2% on sale for .99 for a gallon because the date is the 6th. I knew the kids would go through a gallon or two in 1-2 days so grabbed 3. But we ran out of sandwich bags, I ordered some from Alice but it won’t be here until this afternoon. UGH. I could go on but won’t. Have a good day.
Darlin, as soon as they’re done at my house I’ll send them to you!

Monday is more relaxing because we have done housework during the weekend and on Friday we are tired finishing all the work that are due . Just relax, because the job keeps coming. Better than nothing at all.
