I've been playing mom all week with the mini Andrews, so I've actually been like, doing stuff. Mom-ish stuff. I don't think I posted on Tuesday, so I'll just update everyone on my productive life since then.
Tuesdays mean we get the kiddos overnight, so there's that. On Tuesday I woke up to go meet my chums to work on choreographing our final project for my Musical Theater Dance class. It's pretty legit. I can't tell you what the song is yet, but I'll post a video of it later today, after my final. We're supposed to guess each groups' choreographer. Anyway, while I was in the middle of "studying" for this final, I had a random meeting with my advisor to tell her that I am going to take one class this fall. Pretty darn important meeting.
Then we finished dancing.
Then I went to the shop and sat around.
Then I went back home and showered.
Then I went to go get the boys from school.
Upon returning home, I started doing laundry. I've been doing a LOT of laundry lately. I also almost have it all put away...not really, that was a lie. I'm sorry.
Evidence that I've been doing laundry. See, it's folded, AND almost to where it's supposed to be.
In any event, I did laundry most of the evening on Tuesday, Andrew made foods for us, and eventually we went to bed. Kind of boring day, though I did manage to get those piles of stuff that were in the hallway put away.
All gone!
JUST KIDDING! It's folded now though...
On to Wednesday. Now this day was PRODUCTIVE peeps. I woke up at, get this, 6:30, and when I saw woke up I really mean that I got out of bed, took the dog down stairs, fed him and went to wake up the childrens. They were sweepies and stuff, but they managed to make it down stairs where we ended up getting dressed and ready to go. WHILE that was happening, I started making dinner for the evening.
Now, I know your'e thinking that sounds weird, it was only 7 am after all, BUT, I made a hugenormous pot roast in the crock pot, so I had to trim it down and shove everything in there and turn it on. It took longer than I wanted, but it all worked out in the end, so I don't care.
I made Delicious for dinner
I had told Vinny and Dom that we could go to Starbucks in the morning before school the day before, so we loaded up in the car and headed out. Vinny got a DECAF short mocha and a brownie (I know, brownies for breakfast? Well, he wanted a chocolate donut, but we stopped selling them apparently...) Dom got an apple juice and a regular donut. SO cute. Of course, Vin didn't want his mocha by the time we were leaving so he handed it to me and I kind of forgot about it until it spilled in my car later...Dom asked if he could "save" his donut for later after we dropped Vinny off at school and I said, "sure." I didn't do much more than just leave it in my car and forget about it cuz, well, I forgot it was there until I picked them up from school again. However, that is not the point. After everyone was safely at school, I went and RAN ERRANDS.
Holy poo. Errands? Yup. It happend. Went to Lowes. Lowes you say? I needed something to put on our deck so Buster can't be seen when he goes outside...on the deck...on his fake grass...
...
I'M POTTY TRAINING MY DOG DAMMIT!
...
It's a tarp made for outdoor dog kennels to give puppies shade. It actually took me quite a while to do this cuz it was just one big piece of material that I had to use my amazing seamstress skills to deconstruct. (I used a scissors...use your imagination)
*shing! Sparkle, sparkle*
Then I went to Michael's for yarn because a friend of mine has commissioned me to make her some more hats. Did you know I knit? Cuz I do. In fact I'm making a hat. If you're my friend on facebook you can look at my "stuff I make" photo album to see how cool I am.
Messy coffee table with cup of coffee and knitting. Yes, sometimes I AM 80 years old. Get over it.
Beginning of the hat. I'm about five or six rows into the brim. 2 by 2 ribbing for about 10 rows.
And yes, the lego is helping. It's the secret to my amazing knitting skills
So...then I went to Target and got really pissed off that everything is moved around. They're remodeling and it's superfuckingdumb because I can't find everything. I hate it when stores decide to move everything so you have no chance of actually finding what you need. Like a mug tree, not that Target carries those anyway, cuz they don't...GRR. But I did get more laundry soap. I'm weirdly running low. Must be all that laundry I've been doing. And the blanket washing that happens three times a day thanks to my pee freak dog...Seriously. He pees on everything. It's mostly when he gets excited, but it's obnoxious. Hence the attempt to outside potty train him.
After wandering around Target, desperately looking for a mug tree I went home and, once again, began doing house hold things. Like putting up the deck-screen thing. That sucked...it was windy and junk, but I figured it out and now it isn't so bad. Then I ate and showered. And then went to more dance practice. We managed to finish the dance up and I went home to bum around for a bit (I might have done more laundry...don't remember) until I had to go get the kids again.
And so my evening repeated itself a little bit, though I did throw a nap in there.
I know, it all sounds SO exciting, you can't believe what you've read.
If you're feeling unproductive after reading my amazing-ness for the last two days, don't. So far today I've been away for almost three hours and the only productive thing I've done is feed the dog and make myself some coffee. The rest of the morning has been spent on the computer cuddling wif da Busters.
Lazy ass dog...
All I have to do today is go to my dance final. WINNING.
I will also be posting the pattern for my wonderous hat that I am knitting. It's pretty ballin'. Might even post the coffee sleeves that I make if you want. Those are handy dandy as well.
Until later!
