No I'm not listening to Willie Nelson, lol. The phrase popped into my head and sounded good enough to jot down.
We went looking for cars yesterday in lovely 75 degree, so muggy you stick to everything weather. After the second car lot we stopped. Lol. We are so motivated. Shopping for cars is generally exhausting enough. Throw in the 4 and 6 year old, plus that weather, and you're getting more whine than cheese. Not a great feeling. So to remedy the situation, we went shopping for camping gear....
That's right, I said camping gear. We are going to load up the troops( the dog gets to go too, woot) this weekend. Kill the shocks on our mini-van, drive XX amount of miles and sleep in the glorious outdoors. And also to geocache, the best hobby every! This should make for some good writing material *makes mental note to bring a notebook*.
Highlight of the day: School starts tomorrow!!! My daughter has decided she is too old for us to walk her to her class the first day of school (/cry). But we can still walk our 6 year old. When we went to the back to school BBQ the other night, he thought that was the first day of school. He picked out his desk, plopped himself down, and stared at the teacher waiting for her to teach! Rofl! He is very excited to start school ya think? Friday is my 4yo's first day of school. I will get 2 1/2 glorious hours to myself that day! Well, I say to myself, but in reality I have a meeting about Girl Scout stuff I need to go to. But still, it's adults only so chances are I won't wear part of my lunch!
Announcement: Congratulations to John and Chelsea Orvella (my daughters Uncle and Aunt) on the birth of their first baby. Little baby Grae!!
Today was such a great day in the great PNW. I'm ashamed I didn't get more caching done. But you can read about those adventures here. I did not get a whole lot accomplished today. Drove the hubby to work, hit Starbucks on the way home, worked on getting some labels fundraiser packets put together and printed out some hostess flyers for September to mail out. Then it was off to geocache. After geocaching was lunch, and school-shoe shopping. And amazingly enough we got the school shoe shopping done in less than 30 minutes. I still don't know how we did it. The kids were amazingly good today, I didn't have to duct tape any of them to the hood of the car for the drive home! I hit up my favorite blog for a hilarious read as usual. That gal cracks me up. I laugh so hard everytime I read it my daughter thinks I have finally dropped off the perverbial deep end. Wrapped up the day by picking hubby up from work early (he didn't feel well), made dinner, and now here I am. In front of the computer. Again. Go figure. Lol! Hhmm, I may go play a little WoW before time to put the kids down for the night. I could do some more dishes, but that's just no fun at all.
