to slide by. I did get several things done, but nothing huge, and nothing that took a really long time.
I got my oldest off to school, and played with the baby some as he was being weird this morning. And I started my middle child in getting ready for school, when hubby decided he wanted me to go to the store and get him some things for his lunch. I figured I might as well do my shopping while I was there, so I got the groceries and stuff I had been needing. The major items that I got were two cantaloupes and a watermelon. I cut them all up and put them in (separate) containers in the fridge. If it is all cut, and in the fridge, my kids will eat TONS of fruit, plus, with the heat we will be getting soon, the cool fruit for lunch and dinners works really well. Plus, it keeps me from having to heat up the house with cooking. I will continue to keep fruit cut and in the fridge. I think it will end up cutting my grocery bill too.
I realized I am missing a book this afternoon, my Paperbackswap acct says that I received it on May 2nd, and I vaguely remember getting it, and thinking that i was not quite ready to read it just yet and that i needed to put it away, but I have no clue what I did with it. Not that I am ready to read it just yet, but it is bothering me to have it missing. I have checked every where I can think of off hand, including that black hole behind my desk, to no avail. Hopefully soon it will occur to me where I put it.
Because of the great book hunt, and other small chores, I didn’t get much knitting done… only about half of a dishcloth. *sigh* and my order from knitpicks still isn’t here… I think the mail man is holding it hostage. Maybe a nice glass of iced tea would be ransom enough in this heat?
Today is the day. *sob* Blood Noir by Laurell K. Hamilton, was released today, as was Blue Smoke and Murder by Elizabeth Lowell, and I didn’t manage to acquire either (ok, I admit it, I was too cheap to pay hard cover prices for either of them.) I have them both on my wish list on Paperbackswap, and it is only a matter of time, but *sob* I want them NOW!! ok… I will quit pouting now.
