Momma Drama

A day in the life...
Mayberry-USA

5:30 am~ Woke up, put the coffee on and surfed the blogs.
6 am~ Pulled the village stuff out and got the bills into their envelopes, ready to mail. Went through meeting leftovers, pulling out what I needed for the records. Pitched the rest.
6:45~Laundry called me, bitch that she is!
7 am~ Got the kiddies up, dressed, fed, cleaned up, teeth brushed, hair brushed.
8 am~ Shuttled Trent off to school.
8:30~ Laundry calls again...does she ever shut up?
9 am~ Loaded up the girls and took them to their Dr. appointment.
11 am~ Got out of the Dr.'s FINALLY. Allergies for Devin, allergies and head cold for Maiya. No shortage of allergens and green snot around here I tell ya.
11:30 am~ Got home and started the water to boil for mac and cheese. Put all the garden plants outside to sun. Headed to the general store with the girls and placed a lunch meat order. Left there and went to the post office. Got back to general store and grabbed the goods. Got home and did lunch.
12:30 pm~ Put Maiya down for a nap, popped in an hour movie for Devin.
".....Busy people, busy people...working hard all over town. Busy when the sun comes up, busy when the sun goes down....."
12:45 pm~ Input the village receipts, made some copies.
1:30pm~ Got Maiya up, nap was way to short today! Laundry yelling. Again.
2:15 pm~ Got Devin helmeted and biked up, Maiya strollered. Walked 3/4 of a mile down to the campground to drop off reservation money. Walked half a mile from there to the school to pick up Trent. Walked 1/4 mile home, hitting the general store again.
3:30 pm~ Grabbed some fudgesicles and headed over to the neighbors to visit, since she hollered to us to come on over.
4:30 pm~ Drug everyone home against their will so I could put Maiya back down for a nap.
5 pm~ Thought about making dinner. Did more laundry instead. Watered the garden plants.
5:30 pm~ Got Maiya up, made dinner.
6:30 pm~ Sat with Maiya, who couldn't cope. Lots of thrashing around and me trying to soothe her.
6:45 pm~ Put Maiya back to bed, for the night this time.
7 pm~ Took Trent, Devin and some cookies next door to introduce ourselves to the new neighbors. Chatted with them outside for a few minutes.
7:15 pm~ Came home, packed 5 lunches for tomorrow. Three for Trent, Dave and myself for the school fishing field trip. Two for Devin and Maiya for their "field trip" to Miss Pam's house. *Wink* Devin doesn't like feeling left out, so she is "going on a field trip too.." Had 2 cups of coffee on the front porch while the kids played. Painted my nails. Watched the other neighbor give the kids rides on the (riding) lawn mower.
8 pm~ Cleaned up outside, shooed the kids in for baths.
8:30 pm~ Told the rest of the laundry to "Shut the hell up" and leave me alone...
9 pm~ Went outside to pick mint leaves for mint juleps. Made mint syrup.
9:15 pm~ Got the kidlets to bed. Late night for them compared to normal...
9:45 pm~ Waiting for the mint syrup to cool and blogging.
10 pm~ Getting ready to drink my first ever mint julep. :)
