Semi- Studious/Semi-Silly SATURDAY

~Jamin studied all day.

~Josiah worked all day.

~I did my 5th Step Workout of the Week! WooHoo! Made that goal!

~I talked with Bank of America again today - 3 agents. I had two merchants they had denied (recurring payments as I've not been using the card). I had to call the merchants and tell them to try again (our local paper and netflix). They insist it is all taken care of now....but I asked them to explain WHY I continue to have trouble. Evidently, this is one of the mysteries of the modern age. ::snort::

~I worked on my personal Shop Natural order. I also helped two women get their orders together. I still need to compile the monthly group order and get it sent in.

~Arielle went to play with Ashley.

~I took Jamin to the library....and found some new books for myself, while he looked for Winston Churchill books.

~More letters, cards and a package from Mike today.

~We went to the mall to see a magic show. The magician's message is about believing in yourself (or in magic), saying no to drugs and alcohol and bullies. We had good seats from Chick Fil A....until the boy next to us threw up - he was maybe 2 and had drunk an ENTIRE Strawberry shake by himself. Josiah was manager on duty and got to clean it up! UGH....see all that time cleaning carpets around here during flu season has taken him to great heights. ::snort:: At the magic show there were skunks, rabbits, birds and a baby Siberian tiger. Nolan insisted on staying to pet them all.

That's it for today. I'm not going to try to load many photos as blogger is loading each of my images about 100 times and then I have to delete them all. LOL

Oh, blech! Occasionally I will find myself remembering the time at Burger King that 3yo Trevor poured the entire salt shaker on his burger when I went to get napkins. He took a bite, coughed and puked EVERYwhere right at the table in BK. I was mortified, embarrassed, thankful to the employees, repulsed, and mad all at the same time.

Sis: Sounds like you and yours were all busy today and got a lot done. Sorry Josiah had to clean up a mess.......... eck!!!

Got all the nativities packed up and Nathaniel came over this afternoon to help me get them into the attic.

So you remember the time Nathaniel and you other 2 kids were staying at Hammers'? She made him eat a couple of peas even though you and Willie told her it was a bad idea and up it all came. Kathy still says that taught her to not make any kid other than her own eat anything if they didn't want it. HA!

Great day...except for the vomiting part...poor Josiah.

How do you find all these interesting things to do...we either live in an activity wasteland or I'm totally out of any and all loops where this information circulates...probably the later! :-p

Debbie - I doubt you live in a more activity deprived area than I. ::snort::

I heard about the magic thing becuase they've been in the mall - set up outside Chick Fil A - all week. They set off fireworks and at the start of the week it would freak out chick fil a employees but now they all work right through it. LOL

It had been in the paper but I missed it - I was glad Cy mentioned it to us. I didn't WANT to go - I wanted to stay home and read - but the children wanted to go and were really happy I took them. Which made me happy.

Throw up is the one thing I can't stand to pick up. Sierra threw up Sunday night but thankfully she made it to a garbage can :-)
