How much did you bet?

Well, I didn't do too terrible today, but the morning was...wow. I crossed the first two things off my list and a third is still hanging there. The taxes is my third and it is hanging there because my numbers don't match up...Figures. I hate numbers.

Bank, bingo, simple.

Grocery Store. I was the mom with the screaming kids. I have noticed when this happens that I get the smiles from the older women. (Ahh, I remember those times. Glad it isn't me.) and I get the dirty looks (Can't that woman control her kids?) and I get the OMG looks (I need to get out of here now, cause she isn't going anywhere fast)I am always the only one that has screaming, crying kids in the grocery store...Why is this?

So the library trip got postponed to another day. Have you ever been to the library with screaming kids? It isn't fun. You can't "Shhhh" a 3 year old.

The big question, did I get through half of my list? No, because it kept growing. So what didn't get crossed off today will go to another day and so on and so forth.

Although, I did build a mega train track today. That made up for not getting everything done...That I can deal with.

is anyone out there?

It has been so long since I blogged. So much so that I let my domain expire and it isn't easy to reinstate it…things become more complicated with technology sometimes you just give up. And that is what I am doing now on the domain, giving up and I hope that I can get my monday back. I will be back here.

who does the world revolve around?

Mornings can be very interesting. This morning did not disappoint. Jakob and Kadence wanted apple juice for breakfast instead of milk. Rick didn't want to give them apple juice because he felt that was just weird. He wouldn't drink apple juice for breakfast, so why should they. I laughed and told him that this isn't Rick's world and it doesn't revolve around him. "what!?" Rick turns to Jakob and asks: "Jakob, does the world revolve around me?" "No." was Jakobs reply. So Rick decided to ask him who the world revolved around. I was minding my own business making my breakfast when I heard Jakob say "mommy." Let me tell you, that is one smart little kid.

My dishwasher died.

A couple of weeks ago our dishwasher was a loud raucous annoyance. It didn't used to be, it was one of those "quiet" dishwashers. Well, we use it so much I think we kind of slowly started killing it. It got louder and louder as the years passed, till it was at the point it was a couple of weeks ago. I am not kidding. It was so loud I would only run it when I was leaving the house. You couldn't even watch a movie because it would over power the movie. Then one day, we noticed it was back in it's quiet mode. Dishes looked clean, and they were...for a week. Yesterday I opened the dishwasher to put the dishes away and noticed they weren't even close to clean. There was a big pile of detergent just sitting on the bottom of the washer. Doesn't the soap know that it needs to get up into the dishwasher to clean? So this is my thought. Screw calling someone to fix it. We know that story, it costs just as much to fix it than to buy a new one. I say we buy two ...
