Not Happy...


Ya know nothing ticks me off more than to take 1 minute for myself today since the other how many thousand have been devoted to doing things for everyone else around here--and I compose a beautifully scripted post and Seth comes up in half a second it's gone.

I will do my best to re-cap for you.

Actually the moment is gone...so I'll just let you in on a couple of noteworthy things this week.

After reading all of the Special Valentines Breakfast blogs I was feeling inept as a mother and so we had heart waffles for dinner! It was a hit. Had to keep up with the Jonses'--literally. Jared had Young Men's so the kids and I hung out and watched the 4 new Kim Possible Episodes.

Now that I've let all of my idiosyncrasies out of the bag I'm not embarrassed to tell you that I have taped EVERY Kim Possible Episode and burned them onto DVD. I even had a spread sheet with them all listed so I could mark them off as I acquired them. It was a long process, but I am complete. Those of you who have Disney Channel watching kids will know that they are now airing new episodes. So I'm back in business. Like I don't have anything better to do.

I feel like garbage right now. This "event" I am putting together for the school is going to be awesome, however the process may kill me. I'm not getting nearly enough sleep and my throat is full of gunk. Sorry for that image.

My "Free Day" on Thursday was all of 30 minutes free. Volunteering in the morning--which by the way got me nothing but my foot thrown up on.

Ya know getting thrown up on is bad enough when it's your own kid let alone someone elses. And...I was wearing shoes with no socks. GROSS!! I really felt bad for the little guy. Almost half of Luke's class was out last week. I was told they are going to have to re-do their Quotations and Commas unit. Well, maybe Luke will just be really good at punctuation now. I'm hoping he doesn't end up with something. His teacher is pregnant, so she was heavily armed with Lysol and hand sanitizer!

After Luke's class I headed home for my notebook and headed off to a 2 hour Relief Society Meeting..oh yeah...I got called to be in the new RS Presidency. I've been promised that we will only be having short meetings once a month...this first one was just to get up to speed. We'll see how that pans out. Ya know I was just telling Carrie a while back that I was wondering how long it was going to take someone to notice that my cush job teaching Relief Society once a month was not requiring much of me. Apparently they did take notice. I'm just the education counselor, so it's not that big of a deal...just more meetings.

Then after that I ran home to make a pit stop and then back to school for my 1:00 volunteering. Then off to get Seth. Not much of a relaxing day. Maybe next time. Seth did have a great day--they had a Valentines Party and he is loving all the "wollipops"!

Rachel had her 2nd soccer game today. Last week was freezing and quite painful for us all. Especially Carrie...not only did she have to listen to Rachel's whining about the cold (like the rest of us weren't cold too) she had to give up her gloves for Rachel to wear. Thanks Carrie!

Today was much nicer. If the breeze would have died down it would have been perfect. Monday's practice was cancelled because of a tornado watch, so they have played 2 games with no practices and they are still awesome. Rachel got a goal today...Sophie had 2! Way to go girls.

Jared took the kids to some garage sales, Chuck E. Cheese, the soccer game and then the park for baseball. What a guy. I've got to get cleaned up for tomorrow.

Have a good Sunday ya'll.

So tell me, can any other presidency actually have longer meetings than ours with Shauna and Leah?? Oh those were the days weren't they.

Reading about the tornado watch on Monday made me realize that I probably ought to turn on the tv, radio or something more often to see what's going on. I totally missed out on that one.
