12 of 12
Hello and welcome to our 12 of 12... Thank's to Chad for coming up with this eons ago and to others I know for doing it so I would see it. I am Faith. I am a stay at home mom that never stays home, and me and Jeff have 6 kids total in our blended family. We live in rural Dickson County, Tennessee. I think that's about it...
7:06am Wake Up! Actually by this time I was up and about for a little while by this time. I got up about 6:30am because that was when Jeff left for work and we tag team the kids in the morning. It's really wonderful, he gets them up at 5:30am and I get to sleep until he leaves for work. Anyhow... today was Micah's first official day in kindergarten and he also got to ride the bus. I don't have a picture because I forgot to take it. Go me...
7:20am Messy Desk So, I decide to check email and get online... it appears somebody or something (as we are owned by a lovely cat) has been on my desk. I decide now, that the desk really needs to be cleaned. I have a feeling there is some important things there. So I should clean it.... right?
12:30pm Kroger trip Had to run in to a real city to Kroger because I forgot Micah's snack for school and the local grocery didn't have cupcakes. (Plus it was too late for me to make some) Kroger is about 16 - 18 miles from the house. So, not too bad but I usually try to only go once a week to conserve gas.
12:32pm Cupcakes And mission was successful! We got acceptable cupcakes for a class of 14-18... I forgot how many students there were plus they added a few. The cupcakes were beautiful! Perfect that they had some with hotwheels or whatever on them.
12:50pm Post Office Stopped by the post office to check the mail in the P.O. Box... nothing... apparantly I am not loved. (I do love getting mail... It's P.O. 241)
1:50pm Success!! Got the cupcakes to school on time and we had a happy group of 18 kindergarteners! The teacher and principal enjoyed the cupcakes too.
2:05pm Home Again Got home again.. greated by Murph... She was glad I was home she thought it was time for her to have her canned food (it's a treat). Looked at email again for awhile and woke up just in time to go get Benji from school. He had a good day (I was very glad) and we took it easy until daddy got home. After the rest of the kiddos got home we ate dinner and then I had to take Britt to school for her band meeting.
7:20pm Musician We (Britt, me, Jeff and the band director) decided that the alto sax was a good choice for Britt. She wanted to play a woodwind instrument but not the Clarinet because that is what Kimmie plays. She likes the sound of the sax so, that was her choice. The price tag is hefty but that is why we are renting to own through Music and Arts. I just hope she puts forth the effort. I remember the anxiety from when Kimmie started playing and now look at her. She's one of the best in the district. So, I gotta trust her to do it and she has a great band director. That was pretty much the end of my day... we signed notes and checked homework... got everybody ready for bed and got our stuff ready for tomorrow. Nothing too out of the ordinary... oh... well.. except this....
Murphy wanted a close up. Actually she was demanding alot of attention when I got home. Jeff said the boys were chasing her around the house and she was getting irritated. She is 10 1/2 yrs old ya know... I imagine have 3 boys (6,5,3) chasing her was not her idea of fun. Anyhow... thanks for visiting! I am hoping to do this every month... I know I forgot last month, so... here's to the 12 of 12!
