Shouldn't I be doing something else

We had a fun day yesterday. Some cousins came over in the morning and we got to play after the fellas woke up. Then we hit the local ymca and Ben went swimming, which he loves of course. Josh played in the daycare and I got on the elliptical. I promptly got bored and watched a different show every few min. This included clean house, matlock and csi. When Ben got out of the water he apologized for getting water on my pants. Such a gentleman. Next we got to go get paperwork filled out for preschool at the doctors office. Then all spur of the moment like we all went to go see Ponyo. It was ok but not something I would buy. First of all my 4 year old has enough trouble wandering off and second of all we have been working on the no kissing thing. It was a great day with popcorn and recess pieces for dinner.
You know when your driving and someone pulls the dumb card and thinks they must be important enough to disregard all laws cause they are in a hurry (or just dumb). Yeah that's the end of that thought.
I made those muffins this morning. I used only wheat flower and the result was a bit too grainy for me. The boys took them down and so did Mr. wonderful. In the future I think we will go halvsies on wheat and white. After breakfast we had to go back to the docs for a shot. Ben informed me as soon as the nurse shut the door that she was not nice she was just naughty. On the way out Dr. J asked what was wrong with his leg (he was limping). I said he got a shot and so his leg stopped working. As we were getting in the car I was informed that we had to go to the ice cream store. I am assuming this was learned from dadio. Ben did end up very disappointed by the fact that they don't make blue milkshakes. Well it's time to get to work on dinner. Roasted potatoes and some pork chops with a lovely italian salad.

What woulld you do if I sang out of tune

I am pondering house projects today. So much to do and it all costs something. The playroom has to be drywalled so I don't go crazy with toys. James and I both like end results just not the process of getting there. The next one on the list is replacing the kitchen door. It is due to be done before Saturday. Of course, there is a temple trip Friday so I may not have it done. Such is life.
On a different note I have decided to start cooking for my family again. Less frozen meals and sandwiches and more home cookin'. So every week I make one thing new. I will update if this is a winner or loser. This week : As you wish muffins. You take your basic muffin and put fruit in before cooking. Sounds tasty but I have been fooled before.
Home cleaning has also become a priority, due to the fact that I have been slacking off. Today my home is clean. Tomorrow I will start the garage. We still have roof reshingling stuff in there. I gotta have a place to park inside. Very important in the crazy Kansas weather.
