31 of 360- meal time=family time

Nothing to cook in the house. Was hoping, since promise has proven she can chew...we could to out for tims birthday meal....of cours one kid kept going on and on about it....then got attitude ( not one of the teens either BTW) so I said forget it....remembering several dining experiences with my kids on tude days.

I'll go get something.

I guess normally this means fast food....since everyone started belting out an order or 2 or making establishment suggestions.

Well I went to Walmart. Got stuff to uh, cook, at home. Broccoli cheese soup, grilled ham sandwiches, and pickles. #1 comes out when she sees I'm home....expecting still a bag of.already made fast.food....taco bell was on her wish list....

"oh. Your cooking....GROSS" said in the nicest way possible I am sure. Makes you feel really appreciated. Guess what family.will NOT have take out food this month?

For the 35 dollars I would have spent on ONE.FAST.FOOD.MEAL.  to feed my family. I got: soup mix, enough left over over today for.my lunch. Ham also some left. Provolone cheese, still lots.left. loaf of bread-half loaf still remains. Big jar.of.pickles. angel.food cake to bake with strawberries and whipped cream. Oh and 4 cute Orange cups.

Sometimes I just can't win.oh and I broke my crock pot insert. Hip-hiss.

    Oh no... I;d have sat on the floor next to the crock insert and cried, I think. I love that stupid thing more than most of the other appliances. Hope your day is better tomorrow. Some days just stink. :(

 Why is it when you do something wrong, people will point it out, over and over and notice every detail, but the things that you do right... They go unnoticed for ages?  Training at work this week has been tiring. I have been super busy so its hard to actually train someone... I have to get my tables taken care of. I have the kids just getting into the swing of things with school, and training myself to go to bed early has proven unsuccessful. I basically feel over worked and under slept. As I mentioned on facebook I think there are plenty of hours in the day... I need more hours at night, to work with....  Kids are all adjusting well to school life again. Still going to sleep easily at night, which I know wont last so I am enjoying it while I can. I cannot believe I have a child who is a sophomore this year. I am still not believing that actually.  Tomorrow is super busy, we have Dr visits, I have blood work done, Girl scout meeting to attend and then a split ...

Love the one your with.

 My mom and I were talking and lately her relationship is what I guess we could call complicated. During our conversation she stopped and asked me "Are you happy with Tim?" without hesitation I answered "yes".She told me that she knew he loved me and she was so glad I could be happy.  Later I was thinking about it. I have wondered is he "it" is he the one. How can I be sure, how is anyone ever sure? We have been together for almost 9 years now. Granted we've had our issues, but every night he comes home to me, and every morning he's next to me in bed. He loves me, he provides for me, and I love him and provide for him. Together we are raising four wonderful children.  Do I still get butterflies when he walks though the door? Well, honestly, no. Do I still miss him the moment he walks away... Again no, sometimes I am more than happy to see him leave for the evening and go to work... Does that mean I love him any less than I did when our love was...

I just don't make the time. I need to. so few weeks ago. got strep throat antibiotics and BAM my skin/joint issues flared up. bad. I'm stiff sore dry and ugly. so I'm going to try to be gluten free. I love bread guys and pasta. I have to get thos crap under control though and some research suggests it helps and it certainly IS NOT going to hurt me so here goes. I started today but will count my actual start date as 9/1 b: coffee and cream, watermelon and a string cheese l: zucchini cheesey casserole hamburger patty with lettuce other veggies and mustard s: caramello [I said gluten free not healthy] d: subway spicy Italian with provolone, no bread with lots of veggies and mayo also veggie straws happy to find they are gluten free! so say 1 wen...
