Things we've done this week:

We have all been busy this week, but not. You know what I mean? There's lots to be done but somehow we haven't managed to get it done. What have we done, you ask? Well...

Goldilocks was a matador and I was a bull.
"Mommy, you make a great bull!"
Bet you didn't know that about me!

Punka made an "A" on her Latin test. That was hard!
And long multiplucation makes her sweat.
"Ugh, great! Now I'm sweating."
Seems to have the same effect on me, too!

Gigi loves to sleep in the nude. Yes, you read correctly. We go in to check on her in her bed and she will have striped done to her birthday suit. Occasionally, we are lucky and don't have to change the sheets.
"Mama...eewww...poopoo!"
Repeat 100,000,000.
That is how many times I have heard that phrase from all of the kids this week.
Lovely.

I made crazy good spaghetti and meatballs this week. Super yummy. It was my sister-in-law's family recipe that I tweaked to fit our family i.e. reduce the garlic amounts. I halved her recipe and was left with enough for 3 more meals! I will make lasagna next week.

I also slow cooked a whole chicken and got all the meat off. (Ok, so Hottie did that part 'cause it makes my skin crawl.) I had enough meat for 3 meals: chicken quesadillas, chicken enchiladas and chicken pot pie. Does quesadillas look funny to you? I think it is right, but spell check keeps underlining it. Oh, it just stopped underlining it. What's up with that? Sorry. Back to the chicken. I got several chicken when they were on sale for 68 (where is the cents sign?) cents/lb. I froze them till I'm ready to cook them. I also got split chicken breasts for 99 (cents sign?) cents/lb and boneless skinless chicken breasts for $1.79/lb (much easier!). Anyway, not sure where I was going with that. Still trying to find the cents sign and I forgot what I was saying.

Moving on.

I have everything ready to make Breakfast Cookies in the morning. (Bananas, apples, craisins, oatmeal, yum.) Just have to throw it together and bake in the over. Hope I get up early enough. Rephrase that. Hope I wake up early enough. I'm not a morning person. How did I birth 3 children that are? I did not know "early birds" was a dominate gene.

Don't you love how I go from cookies to biology? It's a gift, you know. Not everyone can keep up.

Speaking of keeping up, I haven't done very well on my New Year's resolution. The one about the scrapbooking. Yeah. I have only done 1 page. I can't figure out how to upload it. It's from Christmas.

Moving on.

Hottie has 2 quizzes tomorrow. Pray.
(Full time student and working.)

Punka has 2 new pair of glasses. Pray.
(For those of you that don't know, she broke her glasses twice and lost them before Christmas.)

Goldilocks loves to change clothes 10x a day. Pray.
(I know. He could not wear anything at all.)

Gigi. will. be. 2. in. 1. month. Pray.
(Just please pray. That's all.)

Me. Well, who knows. Pray.
(Sometimes I can't think and that scares me.)

So, I think I will go over the edge now. See ya when I'm back. Pray!
