So many pictures and things to catch up on! Just wanted to write down the chaos so I know what I did at the end of the day!
Yesterday was an adventure again! Every day there is at least 10 things but they all happened in such a time crunch I wanted to make sure I got them all down.
School as usual meant got up by 6:30am (which was half an hour late) after going to bed at midnight from looking over budget and bills with Wes, took kids to Brinton at 7:30am, took Brennen his homework at 7:45am, grabbed breakfast and showered before I took Josh and carpool kids to Smith Jr. High at 8:30am. Got home around 9:10am. Did my hair and threw in laundry. Then I got Ben dressed - PullUp today he insisted, Cleared table, finished dishes and started dishwasher, called Dr. for Brennen appointment because his chest hurt when he coughed, sent Thank You email to district and school for Jarom's Miracle aid. Ben and I did 6 puzzles and played a bit. Then I got lunch for Ben and I (leftover sweet pork, yummy), cleaned up lunch and did some laundry. He fell asleep a little early so he woke up at 1:30pm so we had time to run to the Post Office. While he was asleep I jumped on computer for a bit to catch up and finish Family Service Chart and Dishes Chart. Ben was still in his Batman costume from his nap. He woke up with the tie a little too tight around his neck and scared me. I of course had him take it off before nap but he had put it back on... From the Post Office we went to the school to get Jarom at 2:15pm but he wanted to stay for Fun and Fitness so we ran home and had only about 30 minutes before we had to be back a the school to get Brookly and Brennen from Science Club. We were there right before 3pm to get tehm and sent Brookly to Fun and Fitness (an afterschool program on Tuesdays every other week where Parks and Rec does fun stuff with them for a few hours for free) and hurried Brennen to the Dr. We waited a while and Brennen was diagnosed with walking pneumonia. He seems to get this every year. Brennen and Ben were able to get their H1N1 shot. He was upset he couldn't go back and play football for Fun and Fitness. As I was checking out I realized it was 4:24pm and I was supposed to take Dallin dinner before the evening Marching Band rehearsal - I hadn't picked him up because of Brennen's appt. I was supposed to make appt. for all the other kids to get H1N1 vaccine but didn't have time. Made Brookly's well check for next morning to get hers (they won't give shot unless had well check and some of mine already had but not Brookly) and ran out door. Went home to drop off Brennen and Josh was already home and wondered where we were when locked out. Grabbed dinner for Dallin and went to pick up kids from Fun and Fitness which I thought ended at 4:30pm (luckily not until 5:30pm.) Then took Dallin dinner with upset kids who didn't want to go clear to Dallin's school. Then turned in Rx for Brennen's Zithromax and went home to make dinner for the crew. Took Brookly to Achievement Days at 6pm and picked up Brennen's Rx. Saw an email that said polls closed at 8pm so I went after I picked up Brookly at 7pm and they were already closed here. I felt guilty since it was a school override that we need so bad. I brought the kids together, did scripture (2 verses since they weren't cooperating) and prayer and started bed routine. By 9pm after tears and homework help and song most were in bed. Dallin wasn't home yet and Josh was reading in room. Dallin got home around 9:40pm and fell asleep reading for Seminary. I began a book and was awake when Wes got home at 11:30pm. Another long day and I'm sure I missed a few details. :) Wow, no wonder I'm exhausted!
Today was Brookly's appt and shot and Brennen home sick and my piano students quit after a frustrating last few months. Sad to see them go. I still have one student though. Tonight is the big Court of Honor for all my Boy Scouts and it's Brennen's first. We'll let him go since his antibiotic should kick in after the 24 hours and he really feels pretty good. His cough sounds yucky but still no fever. I did sew on 9 more Merit Badges for Dallin just a little while ago. Gotta figure out dinner and what I'm doing tonight. Signing off!
