Two posts in one!

Friday:



Whew! What a day!! John decided to cut the tree down in the back yard (it needed to be done), mow the yard, and clean off the front porch which consequently led to a trip to the dump.


I have been sorting, filing, shredding, and reorganizing papers. Things that have literally been piling up. Played with the daycare kiddos, cooked, cleaned, and did the usual stuff with them. I had a fussy one though, so she needed some extra lovin’. Oh and one of the little boys peed in my recliner!! The joys of daycare. Hehe


I also got a wild hair and decided to make homemade pizza for supper. Generally this would entail rolling out premade refrigerated tube of pizza dough, opening a jar of sauce, and adding toppings and cheese. Yeah, ok, but I didn’t have any crust tubes or jar of sauce. LOL Time to Google… I made the dough AND the sauce from scratch! It was really pretty good too! Well, all of the kids said so except Kati who said that the school pizza was better. PB&J for her next time! LOL


I decided to end my day by coloring my hair. It’s so strange to do it with only one box of color!! I feel like I’m forgetting something. Hehe


Tomorrow is Olivia’s birthday party. We’re going to see the “Smurfs” movie, and then back home for cake and ice cream. My Aunt & Uncle are coming too!  I love having “company”.


Ok… almost time to rinse!!


Saturday:


Olivia’s party was a success!! We had a small group who went to the movies with us, we saw “The Smurfs”. I have to say, it was a cute movie. The kids seemed to enjoy it. I was very happy that everyone was good, no spills (pop or popcorn), only Timothy needed to go to the bathroom (4 times!). I think he was just doing it to be up and down. LOL John was a good sport though, he took him every time. Joe didn’t want to go but we had the older sister of one of the little guys, and me, John, Kati, & Mom to help. It was a nice little treat.


Afterward, we came home and my Aunt & Uncle, one of the daycare moms (and a younger one), and one of my other daycare families joined us for cake & ice cream. It was so nice to catch up with everyone, and I think everyone had fun too. Olivia loved the goodies that she got, we are so blessed. One of the girls stayed for a little while and played after everyone left, we’ve missed her, so it was nice to have her here for a bit.


I’ve had a chest/back thing going today. I had John take my BP, it was on the high side of OK (139/90), so that’s good. I don’t know if it’s a muscular thing, or what, but it’s making me crazy! It’s hard to get a deep breath. I told John I just wanted him to know, just in case. Nothing else has happened though, so I think it’s probably muscular and not anything serious.


John did my vacuuming at the church tonight. He wanted to go over some music on the piano, so I was happy to let him. Hehe
