Wrapping up the year....

Got to finally organize and clean up my coupons today, although in a few days they all have to be re gone through bc they will expire. Then I spent 4 hours shopping is aft noon to night to refill the house. My house has been in a serious stage of empty for what seems like weeks now! But tomorrow I get to reorganize all my drawers and cabinets after I get home from Ikea with brian and the kids since I didn't get to go today.

I have the new Toby Keith song, Red Solo Cup, stuck in my head. It is the unofficial official song of my summer to come. Which may be here soon since it is 57 degrees at 9pm on the second to last night of December here which is weird, and sucks.

Almost time for the kids to go back to school, and considering they were both wide awake less than an hour ago, I have a feeling those first few days are going to suck pretty bad. Laci has fully gotten used to staying up past 10 and sleeping in til after 9 every day....lol.

I am steadily working on my game plan for the new year and deciding what to buy when. Tonight I brought back some stuff laci didn't need or didn't work from Christmas and got a gift card. I bought her a Monster High car and new pink boots already on clearance and spent the rest with my eBay money I made on some kitchen gadgets like a smoothie maker and a deep fryer ( yes I am aware how those two items cancel each other out completely) and I also got some new tooth brushes, not that anyonen reading this cares about my new toothbrush. But if you do, it's purple. :)

I am wiped out. I hope my feet feel better in time for Ikea tomorrow. I am really excited to go. I guess I should check out the kids school calendar too so I am in the know on when they go back! Ha!! Thinking of spending the first day they are back in school sitting somewhere fishing! :)

Hope this night is good for anyone reading this!

Laci almost burnt the house down today. While I was downstairs cutting and clipping and organizing my coupons, I kept smelling chocolate. I just figured it was the bowl of dry Reeses ,PB cup cereal sitting near me, but then I noticed the hazy look to the top of stairs and realized what was going on! Laci had torn into the Easy Bake Oven and plugged it in, and started attempting to bake cookies without even letting me know!!! Dry cookie mix, plus high temps, plus a mess equals a lot of smoke and soon a mommy with a very sore throat from screaming so much!!! Luckily the thing is ok and the house is still standing but that was scary as hell! Mom of the year, party of one!!!
Lots of love!

A new year is coming!

And I am determined to get my blog up and running again! It has been too long and I miss sharing my life here and keeping up with happy moments that make my life worth living!! Starting the last week of the new year in bed with strep throat but it could be worse! I got my david Bowie playing and my mom has the kids and I am snuggled down in bed with my iPad and coffee and forming a game plan for the day! Hope anyone who happens to stumble across this blog has a wonderful day!!

Lots of love,
Mommy Pruitt
