Andrew gets in the car after school yesterday and says, "Look what I learned in school today!" Thankfully I had taken my camera to my school- so I was able to video what valuable lesson he learned.
Today is mine and Doug's 13th anniversary. As we were sitting at dinner I was thinking, "Man is this night a LOT different than this night 13 years ago." Here are 13 ways my life is different than 13 years ago. 1. My muscle tone- particularly around the midsection. 2. My hair which has more grey, but yet it is still so much better! ("wisdom" and vanity cause me to spend ridiculous amounts of money on hair products- more than I spend on clothes) 3. I fed a small person ravioli's, while they wiggled and jostled next to me in the booth, and dropped forks with spaghetti sauce on my pants- tonight. 4. I am relearning elementary school math. I think I've got the hang of fractions now. 5. I know Disney Channel characters. I am able to tell what show either of my children is watching- from another room, just by the voices of the characters 6. My friends are now made at my kids extra curricular events, not at work, not at the gym, not doing a hobby....
Happy Week 2 of Quarantining!!! This week was a legit quarantine for us. Week 1 we got out, we went shopping for food to donate to a local charity, and helped deliver food, and my kids hung out with neighbors and friends. Then Friday night, I blogged, I drank- got a little drunk (I'm a total light weight), and put the family on legit Lock Down. I went into the week with a pretty positive attitude and it has stayed that way. I am a person that requires routines and I set one up that has been very good for us. We've even eaten vegetables!!!! Every day this week. That's practically unheard of for us. Randomly my house has been clean all week. How is that even happening?! Somehow when we're all here all the time, it's clean- and when we fly in and out of the house for a brief moment- it's a mess. There are many mysteries in the world (this week has sure proven that!). Saturday I discovered TikTok. If you're not on TikTo...
Doug recently tackled a HUGE project. Literally and figuratively. A friend commissioned Doug to build him a table, after seeing our table that Doug built. In case you hadn't read the post- Doug built this table. The top is wood from his grandparents house. The friend had some trees cut from his property, and was wanting to build a table with them, and after seeing the design of Doug's table, asked Doug to build his table. Doug loves wood working projects, helping friends, and really liked the story behind the wood being used- so he was all in. This was no small feat. First of all, the table was going to be 14 feet long . . . really 14 feet long!!!! Second of all- there was a "small" amount of pressure in that. . . these boards had quite a history and what was delivered- was all there was. If Doug messed up. . . it's not like he could go to Lowe's and get more. These boards were literally one of a kind, and he had all he was going...
Excellent stomach roll and excellent jersey choice.
