I almost typed August 18 up there. Wishful thinking since it’s cold outside this morning. Sometimes this no soccer this season thing is a blessing. I’m not digging out our winter coats and gloves for an 8:00a.m. game like some of our friends. We’re in our nice sort of warm house. How did your Friday go? Did you get lots of things finished? I am excited that for once I made decent progress on my list.

The cookies have come (out the oven) and gone (with my husband on his hunting trip). The boys wouldn’t even try them but I did and they turned out wonderfully if I do say so. I do!

Of course, this is the one (the getting caught up on my 31 Days series) where I faltered a bit. I forgot yesterday was a half-day for the boys at school so that meant a little less time to sit here and write. My husband also came home early and took over my spot for a while. However, all is not lost as I do have a plan for making progress in my series posting. I missed 4 days this week so I see 4 days of 2 posts in the series coming up for the next 4 days.

The boys had a friend spend the night yesterday and he’s sleeping on the newly “remodeled” sofa that is now free of random paper.
I also cleared a fair amount off the desk, my dresser (I returned the coupons to their home), and the kitchen table (then, the mail came. SIGH).
I also did some laundry and finished watching my House DVD while folding it. Everything else has been moved to today as long as I don’t have to be too much of an indoor referee wishing I was out freezing on some soccer field somewhere as long as it meant the boys weren’t fighting. The friend is still sleeping (how?) and I’ll give you 3 guesses what my two boys are doing right now? Here’s a clue: Has anyone seen my striped shirt and whistle?
I’d love to hear about your Friday (or Saturday morning)!

Everything looks great! I’d try those cookies in a heartbeat!

They were good. I’m glad they left the house or I’d be eating way too many.
Sounds like you did awesome. I so wish I could have some of those cookies and maybe a little of that motivation you seem to have so much of lately.

I think I have a lot more motivation in my mind than actually ever gets put into practice 😉
At first I thought you meant they were watching football. Then I thought you meant you were a referee for their fights.
Yes, I was on referee duty!
