Welcome to Dana's blog!

Sorry...........

It has come to my attention that I"ve been lacking on my blog. Probalby cuz I haven't HAD TIME! WHEW! SEriously, the weekend is just a BLUR! My brother was out from MO and we spent time w/them. Well it started w/soccer games. Dh was kind enuf to take Mat to the 8am game. That meant that I didnt' have to get up at 6am! I met him shortly after 9 to eat bfast and go to JOey's 10am game. Dh was off to Indy for a truck pull. Mat was frustrated that his book (3rd in the Eragon series) was not in. I decided that since we were halfway there, we'd go to this free 'green' fair that was going on. I got a free lightbulb, bag and toothbrushes amoung other things. We were home about a half an hour when my mom called about doing gparent/gchildren pics. So I drove an hour back home for that and we got some GREAT pics at a local park! Dh met me at my parent's adn we just drove one vehicle back. On Sunday we had church and met back in my parent's woods for a cookout. Pizza! Isnt' that what YOU cookout?LOL I guess they were good. I didn't eat any. I took Joey to his church event and DH went home to meet my cousins who were dropping Mat off from the Reds game.

Monday was full of laundry (as usual). SEems like lots more than that, but Mat also had his youth group that night. My parents, sister and niece popped over for a visit as well.

Yesterday was fun. The boys got school done in record time and we went to HS days at a farm house depicting the 1800s.  It was a small enuf place that Mat roamed freely and I only had a loose eye on Joey!LOL They dipped candles and made butter and learned about native plants, etc. Then Mat had soccer practice and Joey had a game. I at least had Mat pick carrots yesterday morning and I cleaned them so we had roast, potatoes and carrots in the crock pot for supper when we got back. Dh didn't make it to the game and when I went to start the van to leave, IT DID NOTHING!!!!!!!!! I called DH and he asked if I couldn't find someone there to jump me. Fine, I"ll only call next time if I REALLY need anything! UGH! Joey's coach was parked right next to us and knew exactly what to do and in 5 min I was on my way home. Dh is supposed to buy a new battery today.

And that leaves today. We did NOTHING! Well, I washed the boys sheets and dusted. They got school done. I also got the nametags done for my class reunion. I don't know what happened, but I did use photo paper and I don't know if the printer can 'sense' that or not, but it took FOREVER for them to print! Then I cut them all up (I copied our senior pics to put on the nametags) and taped them to the peel'n'stick shipping labels (they were bigger!LOL). Very high class.;) Seriously, it took me about 4 hours. I have no idea how much ink. But it's done and they are all ready for Saturday night.

Tomorrow is school and a HAIR CUT! FINALLY! I need to add a can of mixed veggies to the leftover roast, potatoes and carrots (still in the crock pot in the frig) for tomorrow's night supper. Joeys' got practice, but I"m not going to kill myself to get there. We are down to barebones on many things and a big grocery run and Walmart run are on the list for tomorrow.
