fun-filled weekend

My goodness, what a weekend!

Here's a partial pictorial:


Blackberry cobbler.


Isaiah going outside to play...with his mask...because his face was cold.


Brenden came home!
And here he is brushing his teeth in my KITCHEN because all the bathrooms were full.

Here I am at the laundry mat.
Because my washing machine died. (More on that later.)
I have a new fondness for this way of doing laundry.
Knocked out four loads in nothing flat.
Note to self: save up for four washing machines.

All my kids, and two girlfriends, invaded my kitchen and took over completely.

Brotherly love.


Motherly love.

And now he's heading back to school.
Wahhhh.

OH, and I have a funny Macy story.
She got a job at a little Chinese restaurant near our house.
She worked her first shift last night...
And when K-Man picked her up, she told him she was making $2.50 an hour.
He was quite alarmed by that and asked her exactly what they said...
and she said, "they said they are paying me $10.  
I worked four hours...so, that's $2.50 an hour....is that too much?"
Oh my WORD.
So, I marched in there this afternoon for her second shift,
introduced myself (with a Mama Bear attitude), and asked them HOW MUCH exactly
they were paying her.
(We seriously thought they were taking advantage of her!)
Very sweetly the gal said,
"$10 an hour."

Hahahahaha.
Gotta love the many things lost in translation.

And that's about it, folks.

I hope your weekend was great, too!

your weekend {plans and menu}

It's Friday, Friday
Gotta get down on Friday,
Everybody's lookin' forward to the weekend, weekend...

Start singing that song all day today.
Especially if you have teenagers, they will love it.

If you have no idea what I'm talking about,
consider yourself blessed just a little bit more than those of us
who do.

Moving on.

So, what's on your plate for this weekend, weekend?


I just might come unglued if any of you tell me that you
still haven't taken down your Christmas decorations.


There are support groups for people like you.

Now let's not talk about this again for at least 11 1/2 months.




Anyway, here's what I want to know regarding your weekend:

1. Do you have any fun plans?

2. What are you making for breakfasts/lunches/dinners?

I need meal ideas.

So far, my plans are to clean and organize.
It's so cute how I never ever give up on the pipe dream to be organized.


And so far my tentative menu is:

1. Chicken fried rice (dinner tonight)
2. Quiche (lunch tomorrow)
3. The rest is a mysterious blur.

That's why I'd love to hear what you're gonna be making.


If your making something especially delicious,
I will show up at your house.

No, really...I will.




Alright now, get out that and enjoy your Friday, Friday!
