TUESDAY randomness!

for not sleeping well last night I am getting around pretty good this morning.
I made Tim some ramen noodles to take in his thermos.
I am sipping some hot gingerbread spice tea..
its definately time to set the schedule on the thermostat!
I brought in 2 pots of plants last night right b4 bed hopefully the shock wasn't too much for them!
I worked on a LO last night of Tim @ the lake last night after a nap on the couch :)
tonight is darts-atleast I don't dread it now but I still get queasy walking thru the parking lot.
I see some baking on today's agenda to keep the oven going & some 'textured' heat flowing :)
time to get it started... pancakes for breakfast!!!


OH OH OH & I REALLY WANNA DO THIS this year!!!! I do have a paper pack from Archivers that's christmasy/wintery & several NIP 7X7 CM albums hmmmmmmmm finish the WITL/SOT pages then I will kick this one.. hopefully!!! OH how I dream to be as organized as Ali someday!!!!

ETA (again) lol
I started laundry but the washer is throwing a code that I believe is the drainhose (been there done that can ya tell) so Tim said to leave it & he'd tear into it while I shower for darts tonight YAY!!! instead of laundry productivity I made PUMPKIN MUFFINS!!!!!!! FROM the Pioneer Woman minus the raisins & whiskey this time.. i am making the whiskey whipped cream for the toppings to take to darts tonight tho! YUMMMMMMMMY

mornin' Monday... its not a good one yet...

Friday night just bummed around watching tv & scrapping
Saturday Kyler's 10:30 ball game. then out to eat w/them & back to their new house to give Carson his gift & chill till 4ish. home for naps then up & out the door @8:30 for a theater showing a 9:30 show of Saw 5. CLIFFHANGER!!!!! we both expected it to be tied up w/a bow... NOT!!! home to bed
Sunday--slept in, up to Tim making pancakes, ate & back to bed LOL up to shower for shower back to change & carry insulation strips to the attic for Tim to lay over new overhang we had put on in teh spring b/c our room is COLD & we think that's why. then we worked together to make cheeseburger chowder for supper & watched our taped Knight Rider & the Bucket List. then I went to my room & scrapped (pulled things out for a possible page for this week's Scrap the Music--but I have a totally different one bouncing around in my head) while watching DH & B&S.
Wanting another day off!!! today woudl be great!! I wanna sleep one away!

Thursday...

not such an ugh day so far.. Gus got me up @ 4 & I just rolled w/it... I got dressed while he was out doing his thing then we crashed back on the couch oh so easily! LOL I had good intentions of watching some of my DVR'd shows from last night but nadda... just a nice hard sleep! woke to Nat's mom calling in sick :( poor baby & her cough! hopefully she gets well quickly. so that's 3 to the dr in 24 hrs! atleast so far they are all just colds, coughs & nothing serious like the dreaded WHOOOPING COUGH we seem to be sharing an epidemic w/around the community!! eeeks! not here.. not allowed!!!

its raining AGAIN *sigh* love the sump pump!!! becoming a soothing sound LOL who'd have thought?? only someone w/one would understand. I think we are going to start some yoga today w/the little bodies! maybe just cat/cow poses to stretch some.

last night's yoga was quite cleansing.. my first one that i felt this way. love it!! totally reenergized!! great way to feel on a rainy Thursday morning.

tonight is scrapping @ home in front of the TV!! whohooooooo really looking fwd to knocking this Story of Today out!!! hoping to have everything printed b4 nap time! wish me luck!!

off to make this day continue as a good one!!

Tim got sent home b/c he's working an outside site & they can't work today so far he has put new caullking around the cc sink & I am working on a list of other little stuff he can accomplish today :))

other than that nothing exciting to talk about... maybe share some fun kid pix later.
