weekend catch up

so this weekend has been a crazy one. I spent most of the weekend going through the kids rooms and getting rid of things. Sometimes I wonder where it all keeps coming from. I think it might be multiplying by itself. ha ha ha. No really i dont know how they seem to get so much stuff. Just when I think I might have it under control I have to go back through it again. Anyway that took up all of Friday and most of Saturday. We had planned on going to the river fest on saturday but couldnt go because i was still cleaning the kids rooms. Instead we went to Cici's pizza to help out DJ's school. I guess a lot of other people had the same idea because it was really busy. On Sunday I got up and got dressed and went to go check on the kids and DJ wasn't ready to go. I was so mad and frustated that I gave him 10 mins to get ready. When he wasnt ready at that time I told them to just forget it and go back to bed. After I cooled down I sat down and told the kids that I was no longer going to miss church because they were not ready. They are old enough now to know what is expected of them on Sunday's. I told them they are also old enough to know right from wrong and that I no longer will be frustrated by them. I told them that I will leave the house at 8:30 on Sunday morning and if they were not ready to walk out the door well that was just to bad for them. I am not babysitting them anymore. I am not going to get mad and yell. And I am not going to miss out on my spiritual filling because they don't want to get it together on time. I hope they got the message cause Momma means business. Anyway after all that I made four more loaf's of bread and made a slight change in them. I used the white bread recipe and just added a cup of brown sugar to it to give it a slight sweet taste and make it look like wheat bread. It turned out so yummy the kids ate a whole loaf before the end of the day. I also gave Mindy a loaf since she had never had home made bread before and she loved it. Now I get to teach her how to make it. Yahhhh. Well that is all for now.

Blog at you later
