Laundry

Today the purpose was laundry! It is the one household task that is never done because even as you are getting it all done you are wearing clothes and creating more. Drives me nuts, but with uniforms being worn and me not having enough to buy about 30 shirts for each boy it is a struggle. I am working on getting better though! Today I am caught up and now if I can just maintain we will be good to go! I am taking my house back, it has been controlled by the little folks all summer!

I made 2 dinners tonight. Not so I could freeze one, but because I made meatloaf which neither John Michael or myself care very much for. So I decided to go on and make spaghetti. Guess what though, we will have spaghetti tomorrow night and I am already done with dinner, other than the noodles that is. YAY! This is really good news for me because of how busy my week is about to get. I am not complaining though. In fact I am very thankful. I hope that it keeps it up!

This year has been about changes in so many areas and they are all definitely paying off. It is not always easy, but I am really determined to be the best person that I can be and do the best that I can. I am so glad that all of the changes have been positive and that so many things continue to look brighter each day. Now if we could just get the budget under control, which will come sooner than later. We are on our way to some amazing things!

Sorry for the crazy talk, but I have just had a lot going on today and really started to think about how much better things are now that we are taking time and truly enjoying life!

Homework time was pretty rough again, but it is done, which is always a nice feeling. I cannot understand what the deal is, but I am confident I am not the only mom with kids who do not want to get it done and over with. Oh well, hopefully soon they will get that I will not change my mind, they have to do it!

The boys both had good days today, John Michael was so excited about PE. He keeps talking about how great big kid school is. He cracks me up! He did come home with a yellow face today, which made me a little blue. We had a long talk and hopefully it will not happen again, especially since he repeated what I told him word for word to Brandon when he got home. At least I know he was listening.

Well, I am off. The boys are in bed and I am hoping to work on a few more pictures and then go there myself. Know that you are all in my thoughts and prayers!
