A Day in My Life...

WOW...What a day I had today. Talk about being productive and active. I don't think I have ever accomplished so much in one day than I did today. Well....We (the roomie and I) did today. Holy shit.

7am: woke up at and got ready for our meeting. I talk about that here if your interested.

8:30am: we came home and both her daughter and Sarah were up and her daughter and I made breakfast for ourselves. I was actually going to skip having a full breakfast and just have some raisin toast with Sarah since that is what she wanted and a cup of coffee. However the roomies daughter made herself two eggs with toast and damned if those damn eggs didn't smell so damn good.....I asked Sarah if she wanted an egg sandwich (knowing darn well she would say yes) and that would be my decided point whether or not I have one myself (like I said I know her too well..LOL) and so I made up egg sandwiches with cheese and my all loving cup of cafe. I was damn good.

after that I was cutting coupons cuz the roomie and I were going food shopping today at some point, her daughter was leaving at noon and Sarah had to be at work at 11 so it was the perfect day to do it. No kids. Yeah baby!!

10:30am: Sarah leaves for work and I had finished getting the coupons together and in order (I am in charge of coupon cutting and organizing) and so I came downstairs to check email and start an entry. After sitting for about 10 minutes I decided to put the entry on hold and go help in the yard.

at this point the roomie is out working in the yard. Remember that trench were digging up? Well it was still not finished and there was this huge dirt pile sitting in the yard for the last 3 months...Until today. So we undid all the work we did digging the trench and putting in the drain tile and covering it up and instead pulled all the tile out and filled in the trench with the dirt from the dirt pile. We did have help. A big strong man type help who worked on digging up the dirt from the pile and shoveling it in a wheel barrel (?) and filling the holes. roomie and I leveled it out and made it pretty. We put dirt against the house, placed stones, and I raked the yard making it look pretty. The dirt pile is FINALLY gone!!!! thankyajesus!! We had a really nice day out today so it was a great time to get it done. Our neighbor was getting work done on there house too so we were all out and about helping each other. It was really nice.

2'ish: (I think) I stopped to change and wash up. roomies daughter is gone and the yard is pretty much done so were now getting ready to go food shopping. I love food shopping. Its so much fun. Especially when the kids are not around. We take our time, we point value just about everything were interested in, I don't know....I like it. We planned out our menu for the week and prepared our shopping list and got the coupons and off we go to the grocery store.

4'ish: we came home and put all the groceries away and separated meat and all that good stuff. Sarah went to the new wal-mart supercenter the opened up in our area (which by the way is so freakin huge...I love it!!!) with her friends and dawn and I had dinner.

6'ish: I decided to make the lasagna that is going to be tomorrow nights dinner and dawn and her friend went to the liquor store and we had some drinks and a good time was had by all.

when all was said and done I took a hot shower and here I sit at almost 9pm finishing up my entry that I started earlier in the day. I have to say....I'm tired, I'm beat up, I'm sore, but I feel such a sense of accomplishment and its all good.

have a good weekend ya'll
hugs, jeannine
