...A Breakdown of My Day

Here we go...brace yourself:

  • 6:10 am: Put the coffee on to get me in a better mood after fighting the boys to get up
  • 6:15 am: try to get the boys to get up AGAIN
  • 6:27 am: Happy that the boys are finally up and getting dressed
  • 6:40 am: The oldest catches the bus
  • 6:45 am: The youngest should be catching the bus, but has decided to catch some z's on the couch
  • 6:50 am: Frantically shower and get dressed to take youngest to school
  • 7:15 am: Pull out of driveway and head to school
  • 7:16 am: Realize that the gas tank is on empty
  • 7:20 am: Arrive at gas station, and fill it up

  • 11:15 am: Leave H&R Block...tired, but happy
  • 11:20 am: Set out to get new tires for my pickup truck...an hour away
  • 12:30 pm: Finally get to the tire place after goofing around at the auto parts store
  • 2:40 pm: Leave tire place after waiting forever...took guys only twenty minutes to change, mount, and balance my tires. Great guys!
  • 3:43 pm: Run by the bank to drop off deposit
  • 4:00 pm: Arrive home, let the dogs out, show the dogs some affection, and check emails
  • 5:00 pm: Start dinner
  • 6:00 pm: Clean up from dinner
  • 6:15 pm: Place Stampin' Up order...the first one from the new catty
  • 6:40 pm: Complete order and computer locks up
  • 6:41 pm: Swear under my breath {letting a few pass right on through} as I unplug everything
  • 7:00 pm: Finally get the computer back up and running
  • 7:01 pm: Go next door to play with my neighbors' new baby girl, Bella
  • 11:00 pm: Come home, and blog a bit

Yep...you guessed it! No card and no stamping today! But I will have one for you tomorrow...maybe even more than one! Thanks for stopping by, and I will see you all later. Until then...

Geez! Long day!! I remember my parents having to wake us up for school...I wasn't so hard but my sister was a nightmare in the morning! :)

LOVE to see you have Man's Best Friend on your list...I need to use that today!

Oh my goodness that was a super busy day! Wowzers! Hope you got a good nights sleep!

Your order looks awesome! I've got a lot of the same things on mine!! I'm envious you can get yours so fast...takes me about 14 days now...3 to 4 to pick and then a week or so to arrive :(

I'm going to give your sketch a go today!
