The Trials of a Busy Mom

Call me crazy, but…

I just LOVE the leaves swirling around. When a big gust of wind comes and blows all those brown and yellow leaves around, it looks a bit like there’s some kind of little critter running around. One of the small joys of fall, I guess. And I love looking out the front door or my office window to see the neighbors 8 beautiful flowering pear trees. They are the perfect fall colors right now–orange mixed with yellow with some red on the south sides. Simply breathtaking to look at. I’ll be so sad when the leaves are all gone and all I have to look at are bare branches.

And I think this is a bit extreme. I mean, if they labeled it simply “food storage” or “emergency preparedness pack” or something a bit less fear inducing, I could handle it, but “bird flu food supply”? Come on.

And I’m really excited to go to Disney on Ice tonight. Hooray!

And, I think that if you have kids and are getting them any kind of electronic devices for Christmas, you’ll be needing batteries. I just ordered me some here, and will therefore be getting a sweet deal on a boatload of batteries. I suggest you do the same.

Checking in on my goals this week, I have refrained from shopping. Until today. I went to Albertsons. Nowhere else.
I have gotten a ton of stuff done on reflections, which is good, since my assembly is next Friday. I still have to get the program organized and call all the parents and do a ton MORE stuff, but I’m getting there.

Since I’ve been working on reflections, I haven’t gotten any tape to prep for painting. I think that will be pushed back a week or so.

I have exercised two days so far, unless you count lugging 4 40 pound bags of salt out of the car. I guess if I actually get them to the basement I could count that. I’ve had some nasty headaches this week, and hence have been a bit slack on the exercise. But I’m not a total slug, so I’ll keep that in mind.

    What is worse than the “fear” they are inducing is the fact that a 90 day supply for one person costs $1200. I don’t know about any of you, but I can eat really good for less than $400 per person, per day. Might I suggest you save yourselves a bunch of money and just buy a 90 day supply of Filet Mignon?

    Hey Crazy Butt! (I couldn’t resist with the title of this blog entry).
