Friday morning was spent making phone calls for appointments, running errands (Goodwill, Home Goods Store, Joann Fabrics). R was home from work for a Dr. appt. so we took advantage of both kids being in school and went to lunch at Chili's had to stop for gas on the way. Lunch was yummy and relaxing. Made a quick stop into Pier 1 before heading to preschool.

We picked up Imac from school, came home and R went to get his haircut and go to the Dr. I picked up GA, came home, had snack, then got ready for our Daisy Scout Meeting. There are 11 girls in the troop and we all had a blast. We will be meeting weekly. Our meeting ended and we headed home to start dinner (got home at 5:15) Gnocchi with Vodka sauce, salad and garlic bread (green beans for the girls).

Played, did the night routine for the kids, wasted time on the computer, caught up on a few shows, went to bed.

Saturday.

Up around 8:30am - the girls let us sleep in! Yay!

GA showed us that she can now reach the top shelf in the refrigerator to get the milk. She then poured her cereal into a bowl and then poured the milk on. Wow! Imac wanted the same breakfast, so that was easy.

R spends the morning washing the new car. Girls are inside playing. I'm cleaning. We eat lunch and then the neighbor's granddaughter comes over to see if the girls can play. Of course the girls are thrilled to have a playmate. It's such a gorgeous day, they play with the sidewalk chalk, spraying each other with the water hose, ride bikes/scooters, play tag, etc.... I sit outside with them and try reading. R heads to the pet store to pick up bedding for the guinea pig. He gets home, I trade with him and go inside and he sits out with the kids. After about an hour and a half they get bored with each other and decided to go inside. I give the girls a quick shower to clean all of the mud and chalk off and sit down to watch some football.

Kids play quietly, decide to watch a movie on the computer. R takes a nap. I'm getting ready for the FSU v. Miami game at 3:30. Watch the game, pause to eat dinner - chicken tortilla soup with fritos - then back to the game. It's a close one but FSU wins in the end!

Time to get the kids ready for bed.

Sunday.

R heads out for the day at 8:30. Imac is still sleeping. GA is up and has been playing quietly in her room. I make them breakfast and then check my email, blogs, etc.... Make a grocery list. Girls want to make an "aquarium" so we get that set up and play for an hour or more.

Change sheets on girls beds.

GA wants Arby's for lunch so we head out to pick that up and bring it home to eat. I'm feeling tired and a little headachy. Talk to R on the phone to see when he'll be home. Still have to go to the grocery store. R gets home around 3pm. Imac goes to her room and falls asleep. GA, R and I cuddle on our bed for a while. I head out to the grocery store. It starts pouring down rain. Get to Publix, run inside, shop. Home around 4:30. Start thinking about dinner, watch a little of the Bucs game, make Pizza burgers on the grill.

Spend about an hour doing online banking. Make a phone call to my co-worker & prepare for class Monday night.

Look at GA's take home folder, sign the box, pack her towel in her back pack for rest time, make both girls' lunches for Monday. Spend some time with R after girls are in bed.

Today was an emotional day.

------------------------------------------------------

Now I have to work on getting all of this together. Can't wait!
