Well what a day it has been!
The Lord is my strength and its a good thing he is cause thee isn't a force other than Him with enough strength to handle the type of day I've had.
It all started at 7:09am when I was waken by Rissa bending over holding onto her ankles with her tush in my face. As she exclaims "Mom, I got a butt" thats when I think to myself "So do I but I dont see you jumpin out of bed to wipe it" Of coarse I don't say anthing like that I indeed do jump out of bed and change the poor girl's butt.
By 10am I had done absolutely nothing productive and decided it was probably time that I get to work, with tons of laundry to be sorted and dressers to be organized I needed to get a move on. But 1st let me throw in there that the insurance guy showed up to take measurements and pictures of the front and rear of the property today for insurance purposes. So of coarse as he did so Harley was to remain indoors which was fine as it was raining out. As soon as I knew the coast was clear I let Harley out to investigate the fact that there had indeed been a stranger in his yard. So I then started simply by loading the dishwasher (@9:27pm the clean dishes are still in the dishwasher where they will stay until tomorrow morning) and attempting the unknowingly tedious job of defrosting 2small pork roasts to be put in the crock pot. So i plugged the sink turned on the warm water and placed the roasts under the running water in order to defrost them. I then decided to make a lap around the downstairs to find any straggling sippy cups that may have lost their way to the sink, and as I passed the front window I happened upon a large black dog sauntering across the road. Upon closer look I then realized said dog belonged to yours truly. Realizing the nice insurance man must not have latched the gate properly, I then had to carefully place my children on the couch in front of a show that I knew would captivate them for a alotted period of time, and snaek out the front door to capture said dog. As Harley and I re-entered the house both a tad damp we walked into the kitchen just to find that we were not the only things that were wet casue as I mentioned previously I had began the attempt at defrosting the pot roasts by running water over them and yes it was indeed all over my kitchen floor. So I then hurridly cleaned that up, finishe loading the dishwasher, fininshe preparing the crock pot roast and turned in a sigh of relief that I was fininshed with theses tasks. Just to find my 2yr old stark naked dancing in the living room. My little moon child!
So needles to say this was the beginning to what promised to be a long day! I have yet to do any sorting, organizing or cleaning but I did manage to get both children bathed and actually enjoyed a lovely meal with my amazing sister in law Stefanie, who treated me to Red Lobster as a late birthday present and it was truly a blessing!
I am exhausted now and going to bed! So until next time Many Blessings!
