busy Sunday

I got up at 6:30 Sunday morning. Ugggg, there's something that I didn't want to do on my day off......

Got ready and was at my Mom's by 9. We packed up and headed north to Scottville for my cousin's baby shower (it's her 3rd kid, but that's another story). The food was the bonus (isn't it always?). We had ham & turkey sandwiches, cheesy potatoes (YUM!!), cherry & orange jello (with fruit, of course), pickles, and punch. We didn't have cake; my Mom made cupcakes instead. On the chocolate cupcakes I put a cream cheese frosting (which is the best!!), and the white cupcakes had chocolate frosting. Heather helped decorate them. She's not one to be in the kitchen, so that was nice. The girls were good; only had to beat them once. We had the shower at the Senior Center where my aunt works. It was a nice place, with a ton of space.

We stopped at my sister Deanna's after we left the shower. They painted their walls and had their wood floors re-done a few weeks ago, so she wanted me to see them. Then she had some stuff in her basement to give me. She was going to have a yard sale, but never got around to it, so she gave me a TON of clothes, mostly for Katie's baby, Elijah. And some toys, and a comforter set, a shelf with daisies, and a cool lampshade nightlight for the girls room.

We stopped back at Mom's, packed up the Durango, and finally got home around 4:30. I was exhausted. Came home and ate some of my Mom's cheesy potatoes (those will go right to my ass, I'm sure), and took a nap. I set my alarm for a half hour later. When it went off, I shut it off and fell back to sleep, only to wake up an hour later. Great, that put me behind. I just spent the rest of the night getting the girls fed, bathed, and ready for bed.

Here's where I was naughty. I stayed up until just after 3 because I was cleaning. I got a TON of stuff done!! Of course I'm dragging ass really bad today.....
