Totally using the blog for an idea.

Its been crazy the past few weeks - its really starting to drain me.  Paul went through two weeks of hell in finals which made our lives miserable.  He finished up on Friday last week.  WE had a busy weekend full of birthday parties, no naps, fun outside, 3 inches of rain in about an hour and evenings full of entertaining and fun but...whew.  Nothing got done for housework - or grocery shopping and since I don't plan to have extras we're getting a little scarce on food.  Grilled brats, roasted green beans and grape tomatoes with feta cheese,  apple slices and carrots were on todays menu - which was pretty good.  The brats don't really fit into my healthy meal planning but hell, whatever, we ate. 

Paul started up school again today - he goes every day from 8am until 5:30 and has to put in about 3 more hours of prep for the following class each night.  He's not working this week due to the schedule and he's not happy about all the work its going to be.  It wears on me a little bit - just one more year...sigh.  After this week he starts summer school on Tuesday and Thursday nights.   Much better than 5 nights per week like we had since January but nothing like the full summers off he's had the past two years.  I'm totally ready to never say "My husband is in Law School" again.  I'm sick of it and I think he is too.

So which brings me to right now.  Monday night, 9pm, I'm making a dinner list for the week and have to go to Target tonight and buy all the stuff.  I also have to finish putting the 11 loads of laundry I folded last night while watching Flashdance away and clean up more of the kitchen that I didnt finish because of bed time.  I also have to get everything ready for tomorrow.  Additionally, I don't have our normal daycare this week so I have to make lunches for the boys both Thursday and Friday for their backup daycare that they don't want to go to.  Lunches are the hardest for me for some reason.  I think probably because I rarely have to make them.  Let me know if you have ideas for easy kid lunch ideas - peanut free, of course :)

Alright, so I'm here to find dinner ideas from past blogs :)  ITs becoming a useful tool as well as a fun to read tool!!!   I'm tired.  I believe I can and I will.  Good night, Ann.  Take care and please tell Jon and the girls I say, "Hi".  Miss you guys :)
