whatcha doin?

So, Julie over at www.frominmatestoplaydates.com wrote a post that inspired me to want to write a post. Weird, considering I promised myself I would do better this year. But yea not doing that just yet.
I'm still helping out Mom and Dad after their big breaks. Of course Dad has been back at work for awhile. But my poor Mama, she is having trouble.
Shes basically learning to walk all over again. And shes scared. Understandably so. Pray that she will transition to her cane then to solo walking soon. But I cant talk about that much more because I get upset......moving on.

Julie listed all the things she did on a particular day. And she did a lot!! I'm gonna do yesterday because I was off work. If I had to list all the things I did at work......not a pleasant read. So here goes.

-first let me say that I'm still on " midnight" which means my body thinks it needs to stay up all night. So I did, but not because I wanted too. I got an hours sleep before the darn,hateful alarm went off.
-Walked the dog.

-Woke precious up for school with some tickles and kisses.
-Fixed her 2 waffles,extra syrup just the way she likes them.
-Caught up on draw something, words with friends and of course facebook while she ate and watched a little Sprout Tv.

-Helped Syd pick out her clothes and get dressed. Not that she needs much help there.
-Fixed two pretty little pig tails.
-Got my ownself dressed and I think I may have combed my hair.
-Reminded Syd to feed her fish,feed/water her guinea pig, and feed/water her dog.
-Let her use the phone to call and check on her Nana. Which does every morning.
-Was informed 2 minutes before time to leave that she wanted to pack her lunch.
-Packed the fastest lunch I have ever packed.
-Zipped a pink coat ran to the explorer, made it to school 1 minute before the final bell. Shoved Syd through the classroom door with an apologetic wave to her teacher.
-Stopped by the office to see if they had gotten any DES shirts small enough for Sydney yet. They hadn't.

-scotty went to McD's and got breakfast. Love their bagels!
-Printed off some info about my cousin who passed away in Nashville.
-May or may boy have wasted an hour on pinterest/facenook/draw something /words with friends.
-Cleaned both bathrooms.

-Talked with Mom and Meme for awhile. Had to do the family gossip thing.
-Almost fell asleep driving home. So I decided to take a short nap, while Scotty groomed the dog.
