I got to sleep till 7:45!!!!!!! But today is one day I wanted up early cuz I have so much to do. Oh well! LOL
Give Tyler a bath ~done
Wake up ~doing
Grocery Shop
Dishes
Vacuum
Take garbage out
Bake 2 loaves of Oat Bread
Start crockpot roast for supper
Make homemade pizza for lunch
My SIL and her 2 kids will be here around 10am. My fiance is working on her van all day and we are going to take the kids somewhere. Maybe the Zoo... but I think its going to rain so who knows.
Today is a mix of relaxation and socialization. We have a barbeque at my fil's this afternoon, although it is going to wind up being inside instead of a picnic because of the rain. What was to be a relaxing afternoon will now be 8 adults and 6 kids trapped inside the house. Whoo-hoo. However, I do have some things that need to be done.
Laundry
Sweep and vacuum
Grocery shop (done)
Change sheets on the bed
bathe dd
put clean dishes away
Today is a day I'm doing nothing. Those dang crickets had us up last night again (you can read it in homesteading) so I'm having a fun filled day quilting!!!
Betsy, save your newspaper money as there are no inserts
in the paper today (atleast there are none here in Louisiana).
DH & I spent weekend at my parents & came back around 2:00
today. Since returning, the washer & dryer has been running
non-stop.
I was able to get a few clothes for fall over the weekend. Alot
of the stores had some very good sales for the holiday.
I would LOVE to nap but it is now too late in the day. I still need
to organize receipts from the weekend, balance checkbook,
make "to do" list for the week.
Hope everyone is having a great weekend.
B = cinnamon roll, fresh fruit, sausage
L = chicken salad sandwich, chips
D = baked chicken, potatoes, carrots
Laundry seems to be taking over since school has started back!!
Done 3 loads to get back to normal!
Typed all my coupons in to the cashin$ program. Maybe it will help me keep up with them! I will be able to click to see what coupons I have instead of dragging them all out for sales!
No inserts in our paper either...guess because if labor day!!

Lovely day here today even though it was really HOT
I slept in till 10 !!
Then I got ayla up, got her breakfast..mosied around and brought in my two papers knowing it wouldn't have coupons..so I checked to see if Ralphs had store coupons in it ..and THEY DID! I am so happy! I can get free cookie dough, and free salad dressing! yay! A couple other deals would have been good if I'd had the coupons for it too..but at least it made up for no inserts this week..
So I spent the day cleaning house, doing laundry, taking out trash..and I took an hour nap
Oh and I took Ayla for a walk
And I just grated some cheese to put in the freezer..
We watched part of "the muse" and some show on the History Channel..
It's almost 6 now, and we still have a couple returns to make (which knowing Carl, they will close by the time he gets up!)
And I want to go make a Ralphs trip and hopefully get to Rite Aid and Gene's find foods
Breakfast : LIfe cereal
Lunch: Bread wtih butter and jam, baked potatoes with salsa, lentil loaf and peas, half a popsicle
Dinner: Something light! My lunch was a dinner so maybe just a salad and water?

We slaved around here all day. DH and son #2 worked in the yard, I worked in the house and son #1 did PART of the upstairs cleaning. We are now collapsed in various poses around the house after watching "If Walls Could Talk". We LOVE that program!
Well I'm glad to say that Carl did make it to one store to return some things before they closed!
I also went to the bank, deposited 40$ in refund and survey checks
Then went to Ralphs and got 28$ of groceries(after club card) and paid 7.11 for it after coupons..I think i want to go again while my favorite cashier is still there! He is SO nice! NEVER has a problem with ANY of my coupons!
