Cries and Whispers

Hey there! So my alarm failed to go off this morning. Up side was that I got a full 8 hours of sleep. Luckily Eme decided to paint her nails, so the nasty smell woke me up. Unfortunately, it was at 7:10am. Yeah, we gotta leave for the bus at 7:15am! And the little boys were still asleep!

We made it out the door at 7:17am! We were quite rushed! But we made it - hehe. Thank goodness for those yogurts. ha! The girls and I stayed and chatted for quite a bit, and I made plans to go and pick up the dresser from the new chickie. I told you about her, right?

I can't remember... She was very nice, said she just moved in, had a dresser they didn't need anymore, and that I could have it. So sweet :) I did mention something about me having "Give me free things" written across my forehead. LOL.

Anyway, I got her address, and headed home . Jake was awake by that time (late start school so we were skipping seminary), and was hanging on the couch with Boxer. I hopped in the shower, and got ready to go to Kari's house for my massage. It's good to have friends with skills. hehe.

After an hour, the knots were worked out, and I headed back home. I changed clothes, and Jake and I headed to the Scout Shop for an errand. We wanted to get a new scout shirt for Joe, and I wanted to get an advancement poster for the wolfs, and I wanted to get hats for Leo and Joe. And it took FOR-E-VER! Sigh. They were having issues with the credit/debit card machine, so it took another 20 minutes...

So we lost the time we were supposed to have to go to the Dollar Tree. dang... Oh well. We swung by Big Lots, and looked around for a bit. It was a good time. Jake found fake hand he liked. LOL :)

We didn't stay long, cause I had to get him back to post. I dropped Jake off at the bus stop, and went to pick up Kari. She and I were going to Yoga. I SO need to get back into exercise. I really do :)

Yoga was great. I really do like yoga. I love how relaxed it makes me feel at the end. We finished up, and headed back home. I dropped Kari off at her house, and picked up Amanda. She and I went to the Mall to pick up her rings she got cleaned/fixed last week, then to Ashley furniture to see about her warranty thingy. Yeah, more drama there. Long story short, don't get stuff there! And don't buy the extended warranty! It's a rip off!

We went to Wendy's for lunch at 2pm, and got a Jr Bacon Cheeseburger meal, and a frosty. Yummy! We sat and ate and chatted for about an hour, and had a great time :)

We headed back to post, swung by Amanda's house, and grabbed me some headache meds. I didn't have enough caffeine quick enough today (bad, I know, that I need it...) and I got a headache, and we headed to the bus stop.

Kari and I and Rebecca ended up staying after and chatting till around 4pm. Then we headed home. I worked on my Cub Scout stuff, got the truck loaded for Scouts, had the kids do their chores, got kids changed for soccer/scouts, got people ready, homework done, and we loaded up to go. I just need an extra hour in the evenings! hehe :)

We headed out to practice at 5:15pm with all the kids. Kari was there with Leo, and Amanda and Austin met us there to play with Jimmy. My older boys went to play in the Youth Center this week, also. Kari and Amanda and I chatted in the sunshine on the bleachers. It was a grand time.

I played with Austins fire hat and pirate patch. Yeah, I have way too much fun. And I was wearing my new Autism Awareness shirt I had made for myself that came in the mail today. hehe. It even says HARTY on it. Isn't it cool? hehe :)



After practice, we loaded all the kids and Leo up in the truck, and headed out. We swung by Burger King and got a dollar burger for each kid, a diet soda for me, and off we went. I had the kids wok on a puzzle together for the opening activity, then we went outside and did a requirement. We came back inside and did a craft project, then worked on some bobcat requirements. Next week, we're gonna work on our flag ceremony stuff and our den flag some more.

We headed home a bit later than I wanted, and dropped Leo off at his house. And came back home. I tried to get the kids in bed before 9pm, but it was closer to 9:15 before they were alseep. I set an alarm for 6:40am for Joe and Jim's room. We shall see if it works or not. I told them to get up and get dressed and eat and work on homework when they wake up. We shall see, right??? Even if they just got up and got dressed, I'd be happy!

I started blogging, and was SO distracted, that it took forever. Maybe I needed to start blogging without the TV on. I watch "The Office" (Older episodes) wile I do it, and it's STILL so good that I find myself doing more watching and less blogging. Maybe it's time for a different thing to watch... hehe :)

It's 11:30pm. Wednesdays are hard for me, since I start my nighttime routine so late. I need more sleep. I'm gonna sleep at seminary nicely tomorrow :)

Kari and Rebecca (maybe) and I are going Hiking tomorrow. Then I'm going to Costco with Amanda and Crystal at some point tomorrow. And Jake has therapy at 5pm. Amanda said she'd take Eme to her game at 5pm (5:30) also. Thanks, my dear, for helping out!
