So … Curt’s gone up to the lake to do some ‘scouting’ … that’d be slang for looking for deer. Hunting season hasn’t opened yet, but Curt always likes to go up early and “become one with the trees.” {direct quote!}
That leaves me at home with the girls for “3 sleeps” {another direct quote}. Why is it when he’s gone all h _ _ _ breaks loose? Tears here, screams there, falls over there, spilled milk over here.
At one point I had 3 girls talking to me. I swear one eyeball was looking one way and the other the other way, with a finger pointing saying “just a minute” in the other direction. {direct quote from the finger}.
Then there’s the fact that I’m trying to drop a pound or two {having some self-esteem issues}, and I tend to grab handfuls of munchies when I’m stressin’ … I wasn’t so sure I wanted to share the following thought, but I’m thinking {read hoping} you’ll get a kick out of it. So I’m in the pantry with my hand in a bag of goldfish {completely stressed out} when I think the following:
“All I’m trying to do is drop a couple pounds before Curt comes back so I’ll feel like having {ahem, I can’t write the word} when he comes back.”
Okay, maybe that wasn’t as funny as I thought it was. But it cracked me up {thinking about blogging about it} and got me through the night.
This is Hunter setting the table for dinner … she took her job very seriously.
And for the evening entertainment … hot off the UPS truck … the newly released ‘Tinkerbell.’ Here are some photos I captured of the evening. We pulled out the sofa bed, lit a fire, popped some corn and settled in for a little pixie dust. Some of us felt compelled to work on our laptops {and it wasn’t me!}.
you are amazing…not sure how you do it…yes I am…the more you have to do the more you figure out…when you have nothing to do…you figure you can do it tomorrow….you go girl!
