So starting today, my mother in law will not be working on Tuesdays. She has offered to take my girls on this day so that I can have some time to myself. Last night, Sassy spent the night with her so I could have some one on one time with Crafty. We made a cake in her new Easy Bake Oven. It was surprisingly good, but I'm sure the home recipes I've found will taste better! LOL.
Today, MIL picked Crafty up at school, so after dropping her off at 7:30 this morning, I was on my own. I dropped Koda off at the groomer, finally returned some (very, very overdue--for shame) library books, went to Pier 1 (bought a knife, can opener and Valentine's Day garland with a gift card), Kohls (got 3 pairs of pants, a Halloween shirt and Halloween costume for Duke for $11.96-score-and a frame that I get for all my kiddos with--you guessed it--a gift card), Sonic, then to pick Koda up. We stopped by the store afterward so Golfer could see how handsome he looked all cleaned and bathed, then I brought him home and went grocery shopping.
Golfer has decided he wants to try out a low carb diet like my cousin, who has lost a considerable amount of weight. Unfortunately for me, I had already gotten my menu and grocery list completed when he told me this, so it was back to square one last night. I got it done, but all I have to say is he better stick to it, because it certainly makes menu planning more difficult than it already is!
Tonight we're eating at my in law's house. While we were gone to Texas, my brother in law proposed to his girlfriend. We have not told Crafty, who adores J--the fiance--as we wanted to leave the telling to them. So tonight she's going to their house and they're going to tell Crafty then we'll have dinner. I'm sure Crafty is going to be absolutely ecstatic.
Today I found myself wishing for a small group Bible study in the evenings. To be honest, I'm not sure why because I'm never very good to committing to them for the entire period. The two I have tried to attend I quit after about 3 weeks, which is sad. I am unsure if it is because, after nearly 7 years, I still do not feel the church we attend--Golfer's childhood church--is my church home. I have tried in a couple of ways to get involved but have failed to connect with anyone in the church thus far. I dunno how much of that is because of me and how much of it is not. All I know is I'm longing for fellowship and friendship within my church family, or even just in my area, but considering the fact I have yet to accomplish this...well....I'm beginning to think it's me.
