Organizing

Well I am on schedule again, at least it seems that way. Today we had to deliver a disc so that the Hilldale 5K Graduation DVD could be finished up, then we took Brandon lunch because he forgot and Thursdays are his long days. Then we went to the Book Rack in Trussville. I was able to take several books and I also got several books. I am waiting on Jodi Picoulti to publish he next but for now I am reading a lot of Fern Michael's, Nora Roberts, and James Patterson. I am definitely a reading junkie. I am working on getting all of the Suzie Stackhouse books and then I will start reading that series. The boys also got a book. I am so glad that they enjoy reading. Then we came home and watched Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and then worked on the den and office. Well, they started working on the den and then they started playing. That is so frustrating, but I do not know how to break the habit. I am working on it though. Danny wants the Spiderman movies so I have told him when the den is done I will get them for him. We shall see if that is enough for him. I also started putting my wine glasses in my cabinet. I love it, now to get the rest of them in there. At least there are some. Hopefully that will be motivation. Anyway. Tomorrow is jammed and I am tired. I will say a prayer for all of you. Good night!

Homework Time with 2

So a lot was happening today while the boys were in school. I have been in a combat battle with the house. So far it is too close to determine a winner. I am trying to get some extra meals cooked and in the freezer. Things are so busy and in order to stay out of the drive thru lines I am determined to keep things in the freezer that are healthy and easy. Today I cooked 4 meals, 1 for tonight and 3 for the freezer. At least I know that progress is being made. I am also completely overhauling the house. Everything, closets, drawers, cabinets, shelves....if it s in this house it could find itself in need of a new home! I have always been sort of scattered when doing this, and this time I am doing one room at a time. This way I know when I am done I am done!!!

The boys bot had homework tonight. It is so great to see John Michael starting to read. He has always loved to be read to so now I am making a huge deal about him reading to me. This is what I always did with Danny and even now he even loves to read. I hope that this is something that stays with them for their whole lives. I love to read and just for a fun fact...7 minutes of reading releases chemicals in your brain to help you relax. So it is good for you!

Well, It is already past nine, but I am actually not long for bed, so maybe at least before 10. Maybe tomorrow! I will keep trying to it happens! I will as always remember all of my friends and family in my prayers tonight. I love you more than you understand. I am still working on these new photography ideas and so prayers are greatly appreciated. I will be saying a special prayer for my brother in law who is having his wisdom teeth cut out in the morning. I hope that he does well and recovers very quickly!
