Same old, Same old.

Another week gone by, and really not much to say at all. It really is the same thing just different day. I am thankful it is Friday though! Let's see here's a recap:

Sunday-I had my dad and Penny over for the Superbowl. We had a lot of good snacks and it was fun, except for the going to bed late and Hayley being up on and off for an hour part. Bart had to get up early and go to NY.

Monday-Meg had dance. Caleb stays with gram and Hayley goes with me. I dread Mondays for this reason. We don't get home until about 8. Bart is NY for the night.

Tuesday-Same thing. Bart got home about 12:30 am from NY.

Wednesday-I had to go audit for our town. Hayley didn't take a nap and I had to go pick up Meg from tutoring after school. Bart got home about 12 am (I'm assuming since I was asleep).

Thursday-Same thing. I picked up Caleb from after school program and headed to hockey. It was supposed to be the last night for hockey, but I guess they might have one more? I still might tell them that it was the last night (hee, hee). Bart's parents came up to help me get the kids ready and to see them play because Bart can't. After hockey we went to McDonald's. Bart got home after 12 am.

Friday- I will have to pick up the kids from after school program and then there is a dance tonight for the school. Which I know we will have to go to because the kids love it. Even though no one really dances..the kids just run around and play with friends. We did get our treadmill delivered today but it can't fit through the door. Hopefully we will get it in piece by piece? The thing is monstrous! Bart is headed to NY this weekend.

Do you see a pattern here? I don't ever see Bart. I know when I say he works all the time that some people are like, yeah, yeah... but really he does. I see him in the morning for about a half an hour. Oh but it's only for busy season right? Umm sure. It used to be, but now it seems that busy season is all year long. This past summer he had to travel every week for 2 days or so. Even when we took our vacation to Disney he had to work some. I am grateful he has a job, I just wish it was one that was more flexible and less hours.

Walk to Cure Diabetes

This past August we found out that my nephew, Jack has type 1 diabetes. Type 1, or juvenile diabetes, is a devastating disease that affects millions of people, a large and growing percentage of them children.

Currently there is no cure. But with your help we can make a difference. Would you please think about supporting me in my cause? Any amount is helpful! I would appreciate it so much! You can easily donate online here

Thank you so much!

Weekend Recap

I'm really trying to post more, and I realize no one will care what I write and it's boring..but at least I can look back and see what I was doing at this time.

Friday I went to my sister's Silpada party. If you don't know what Silpada is, it's really expensive jewelry. I had to make 2 maple cream pies for the dessert. SO yummy, but I didn't have any, cause you know I'm dieting AGAIN. Anyways, I didn't order anything because it's expensive, and I am not a huge jewelry wearer. But it was fun and I got to have a little adult interaction.

Saturday the whole family went down to the in-laws and we hung out there first. Then we went out to eat for Bart's 30th birthday. It was a good meal, and shockingly and surprisingly the kids were decent.

Sunday we failed to make it to church. Plus there was no Sunday school so that was almost a given not to go, mostly for the sake of the other members. It was a lazy day. I went grocery shopping alone {bliss}! Bart had to leave early for his 6 hour drive to NY for work. BLECH.
