Whew! It has been a long, long day. The kids and I were up and ready early for Daughter's Doctor's appointment. Before we left I had to run around starting laundry, putting ice in the coolers for grocery shopping later and vacuumed the house. I grabbed the Janet Evanovich book I'm reading right now (I know, I know, it's taking me forever to get through this one! So much stuff to do, not enough time. Or help.) and we headed out the door. It makes absolute sense then that we actually arrived early for Daughter's appointment, right? And I, had my book, thought I'd have time to read. NO. When is the last time you were early for an appointment and they saw you early? That's right, they called us in early. No problem, I thought. I'll just read while we wait to see the Doctor. (After they placed us in a room after Daughter had her temperature taken and been weighed.) Um, no. The Doctor arrived early. *sigh* But, it turns out she's an Evanovich fan as well. *G* Poor book. It spent the rest of the morning and later sitting on the passenger seat. (It's a hardback, not exactly purse-sized.) After Daughter was pronounced healthy (except for the her overly large tonsils *sigh*) we left with a prescription for antibitiocs (tonsils, again). We then headed to Aldi where we ran into the strange German fellow that's a member of the Y we attend. Then to Sam's Club for more groceries, and then on to WW for the rest. By the time we arrived home I was exhausted. We had left before I was able to eat anything for breakfast and I was also starved. (I made sure the kids ate before we left.) And no, the kids didn't help me with anything. After putting everything away I took care of more laundry, ate lunch and collapsed in my chair. Only to finally turn on my computer and see that the library had two holds in for me AND to the thought that I had forgotten to pick up Daughter's prescription. *sigh* So, we headed back out. I now have two more books. (I KNOW, my library is AWESOME this month! For a change. *G*) Dust to Dust by Heather Graham and Sworn to Silence by Linda Castillo. My bedside table is full and I feel blessed because I can't buy any books right now. *g*

The I we arrived home and I collapsed into my chair again. The kids have been inside and outside, their friends have also been inside and outside. *g* After Chris arrived home from work we had dinner and I've taken care of yet more laundry (Daughter's this time.) And right now I'm listening to Layla snore. *G* We've watched Eureka together as a family and LOVED it! I adore this show and am so happy it's back!

It's time for me to head off-line again. I hope y'all had a fun and sunny day. I wish a relaxing and pleasing Saturday. Goodnight and Sweet Dreams, B.

Exercise: Melissa's Crossfit Challenge #2-Day 54. That's it. Besides heavy lifting (when it says 40lbs. of cat litter, it means it, not to mention the two boxes of water and box of cokes for Chris), walking through grocery stores and doing the whole day on 5 hours of sleep. Not bad, eh?
