from that day to this day...

      So like normal it has been a few days since I blogged. But it has been busy busy around here! For starters Thursday I had an appointment in Oklahoma City and it took forever. I had to leave my house around 2:00 and I didn't get home until 5:30 that night. So dinner was supposed to black bean enchiladas but by the time I got home and the babysitter left the kids were hungry and I was in a hurry. So black bean enchiladas became black beans mixed with enchilada sauce and sour cream and cheese all mixed together with corn tortillas. And my kids ate it. It could have been a case of "I'm starving I will eat anything" or they really liked it. Who knows and truthfully I don't care. They ate. The end.

       Friday was another busy day. I had an appointment to get my oil changed and I had to be there by 8:00a.m. I'm not sure why I though this was a good idea when I made the appointment but for some reason I did. So my kids had dry cereal out of baggies at the oil change place. I'm not lying. Lunch was of course sandwiches and fruit. And the most exciting thing was happening that night. Ray was getting home after being out of town for two weeks. The flight he was originally on was going to come in at 10:45p.m. I think, but lucky for us he changed flights and got in at 5:30. We went to get him at the airport and by that time it was dinner time so we had no other choice but to eat out. Darn.

        The kids were so excited to have Ray home. He brought t-shirts for everyone and like any good dad, he handed out his trip swag to the kids. They got all kinds of things, name tags, water bottles, and things that could be classified as trash but when you are a kid its perfect. They each even got their very own bar of hotel soap. Which they have used. And loved.

          Saturday is my day to fix an actual breakfast. Like eggs, toast, sausage, fruit. So thats what we had. Lunch was same old same old..sandwiches. Dinner was Friday night pizza, but on Saturday. Like I said, we were forced to go out since the time of Rays arrival coincided with dinner time. I totally blame the airport for poor time management. So we had pizza tonight.

           Because of some instances of eating out we are going to last a few days past the end of the month on my meal plan. Well, maybe not a few days, but at least one day. Since it is towards the end of the month we are getting low on some things. Snacks have seen better days. And bread is just about gone. But I can make my own bread and there is always something I can come with for a snack if we need one.
