While we're not in the 7th circle of hell, it's a little close.
I've gotten spoiled by really good restaurants back home. Here,
there's a Perkins, 3 Subways, lots of taco trucks (you know, the scary,
dirty lookng on…
Okay.Clothes are washed and will be packed.Diapers are washed, need to be folded and packed. Need to do another quickie load tonight.Dishes are done and dried, just need to do tonight's dishes.Library books are returned…
I doubt dh is going to have time to do my construction in the next few days before we leave (yeah, crap, I've got a lot to do). So in the meantime, here's photos of my graph paper madness! Yes, I had fun in shop class …
Yay!!! We're getting a drive-through Starbucks!!!! You know how I've been longing for one in our nearish neighborhood? With the closest one I have to drag the kiddos into (and don't get me started on the wiggling wh…
They are trying to kill me. What else can explain this?First off, some background. I just can't. get. to. sleep. if one of my kiddos is whining/crying/fussing/whatever. I just can't.Little guy didn't want to go to sle…
Poor dh. He was a bit scared of dinner last night. I had some frozen split pea soup in the freezer, and I was trying to be semi frugal (well, and lazy).He wasn't thrilled about dinner because the last time or two I mad…
Nothing like planning a vacation in a week. Found out dh's days off yesterday. We leave in 8 days. We're visiting dh's 95yo (or so, at that point I'm sure those years kind of blend together) grandfather, and hitting t…
Just now I think there was a short blurb about global warming on tv.Dh says "Hey, we'll be able to grow more crops!" in this excited voice. Heh. He's right. If it's warmer, it means a slightly warmer climate for us, a…
Turns out I made a decent little chunk at the consignment sale. A bunch of maternity clothes I won't wear again (because, dude, if I get knocked up again, I'm buying new clothes) and a bunch of kiddo clothes (but not th…
Yes, I got my purple carrots. No, I cannot plant them until... (checking my spreadsheet)... late April. And they won't be ready to harvest until... early July at the soonest. I'm guessing our last frost will be just b…
Look out! Random conciousness drivel... Need to get it all out of my head so I can go be productive. I've only talked to other adults for maybe 30 minutes total this week. I think my brain's shriveling up.He calls pr…
Oh, I almost forgot.I have never before seen that many cops in my life. Wow.ETA: 2 dozen cops (or more). 4-5 houses away. Apparently there was a domestic dispute (dad and teenage boy from what I've heard?). The dad …
I am so weird. If I can sell enough things on craigslist or my check from the consignment sale is big enough, I'm getting a few things. I'm thinking a few of these... And/or maybe one or two of these.Dh kinda wants to …
What can I do with 3 egg whites?Something simple though. No angel food cake assembly while I'm a single mom (dh out of town again).
I totally dig bike riding. The little one isn't all that pleased with the whole helmet concept, but tough. I'm the only one of the three of us that can do the chin strap buckles. Hah.Did I mention the 10mo has 6.5 tee…
How to Tell When You've
Ticked Off an Engineer(Compliments of dh - an email he got somewhere through work.)
Is getting premium on here really worth it?Yeah, I know it's not a lot of money, but I'm cheap.There's been a bunch of people reading pages and pages and pages of entries lately. Even to as far back as before I got knoc…
I still have gardening ADD. Reading even more books. The lasagna one makes just as much sense as square-foot, but it's not as gung-ho as Mel. Laura, read this one too. Between them you'll probably figure out somethin…
"Hello, my name is Lanna. I have gardening ADD."(all together now) "Hi Lanna.""I keep making plans for my garden, then finding neater ways to do it, and then try to figure that out. I keep checking out books from the l…
This is the biggest Costco haul I've done in years. Sure, we get one or five things here or there, but not a full cart. Our total wasn't too bad though because I had like 7 coupons for things I'd had on my list for a w…
Teething isn't all that fun.And if you feed the kids fruits and veggies, apparently they poop. A lot.
I made bread again. Tried cracked wheat. Eh. So cute. You know, there are some days that I wish we had an SUV. Not a giant Suburban or anything, just a Toyota Highlander or Rav4. Or maybe something else, depending …
