My neck hurts!

Yeah, so I haven't blogged since September. What a bad example I am setting as an admin. LOL

Oh well...as most folks know I get pretty busy. And I will be honest with you, I forget that the blogs are here. I wish there was a way for the forum to let us know that there are new blog entries to look at and comment on.

Maybe someday.

So....today has been really darn busy for me. I dropped my 9 year old off at school early today as it was her first day as crossing guard. She was so excited! Then because we were out early the 3 toddlers and I just drove around town burning gas and singing songs with the kids station on my new sirius radio (Christmas gift from me to me LOL)

Then it was time to drop them off. So we did the whole, get everyone out of car seats, find every-ones bag, tote them all to thier classes, make sure the teachers knew that they all had pull ups in thier bags, and say goodbye.

Then I went back home, honked the horn and my oldest DD came out so I could take her to school. She did not have a first period today as it was the first day of second semester and they messed up her schedule. So we ran to Starbucks and we treated ourselves to a tall beverage. And then I dropped her off at school.

Off to go dumpster diving and scored 20 or so papers, nothing good in them really. Small town papers suck! Oh well maybe will have something others will want to trade for?

Went to Kmart, found a few peelies, but nothing much in the way of non ss coupons. It has been pretty dry around here since Christmas. No new blinkies for months (again).

Grabbed an electric skillet. Now that toddlers are starting to eat more than 1 adult serving between the 3 of them I am needing to cook bigger portions, so I thought that a nice big electric skillet might help. I also found some cute little two piece outfits on clearance for 7.00 for Carly. Who needed some pants.

I came home and FINISHED getting my non insert coupons into my excel spreadsheet and the misc inserts I had laying around as well. Have just toady's inserts to get listed and then I can update my havelist on the site.

I sorted through last weeks newspapers and got them all bagged up and out on the porch. Then I had to run to school and pick up the toddlers. We got home, I fixed them a snack of handi snack crackers and milk while we watched our favorite cartoon "Jakers" (I love the accent! LOL) and then it was nap time.

Once the kids were up thier nap I got some dishes done, the litter box was getting smelly so I cleaned that out real quick. did a quick pick up of the weekend "stuff", put a few groceries away that I got over the weekend (free canned dog food, and some pull ups I found on clearance at smiths for $5.00-coupons). And ran the vacuum.

DH got home early and we watched Dr. Phil while I sorted out the inserts from today's DD papers. Then I had DH load them all up in the van (6 bags of recycling) and take them to the dumpsters. I had asked him to pick up rice for dinner, but there was a miscommunication and he thought I said I was getting the rice. So I ran to the dollar store and picked up a bag of rice (as well as a book and some pencil sharpeners)

Got home and started up the rice for dinner and thawed some chicken in the microwave. When that was done I made a chicken stir fry in the new electric skillet and we all had some dinner.

So now the family is watching a movie and I am checking emails and HCW. But...my neck hurts today. It might be from sitting at the computer too long, or I may have slept wrong or something. But I think I am going to sign off for the night and let my neck rest. Maybe a hot shower will do it for me.

I hope.
