It has been abusy couple of days for me and now I am behind. Yesterday my husband got paged out on a fire in Howell that was threatening the post office, so he was gone for several hours on that. It was hard on him because he had just went to bed where he works the graveyard shift. Of course then today has been my day to say the least. This morning we had some errands to do so he didn't get to bed as early either. I had my own little fire. We burn out cardboard and well my dear husband told me to put gas on it because he is trying to use up an old jug of gas up and he doesn't want to just dump it. Well I used a little too much and some of the cardboard flew out, that was because I forgot to put the covers on before I lite it. Ooops! Well it started the weeds around on fire but I got it out pretty quickly. We do have the house nearby just in case something like that was to happen. It ended up burning a patch about five feet long and about two feet wide. It went fast. At least Josh didn't get upset and he just laughed at me when I told him I didn't want to let him have all the fun this summer. I learned my lesson let Josh do it if he wants the gas used other wise I will stick to lighting it dry or a little lighter fluid.
If that wasn't bad enough my middle son, who is three, is in the middle of potty training. Well today he wanted to wear big boy underwear and he was doing pretty good. Tonight I went to put the sprinklers on the lawn and all three of my boys were out with me. Well, I heard those dreaded words that parents don't like to hear when in the process of potty training "mommy I pooped." I turned around and definetly had and to make matters worse it was all down his legs and he had pulled off his night shirt so it got all over the back of him and the shirt. It was a mess. I put his back in the tub (did I mention he had one bath already since they were supposed to be in bed). So I told him no more big boy underwear for awhile.
At least one good thing came from today. I got Josh's grandma's b-day gift done. I will have to take pics and post them. Any way enough of all that, onto the challanges.
This one is for Wednesday's challange. My perfect day would be a day that my boys got along with each other, my laundry done (it seems like with four boys, 3 sons & hubby, it never is done), and I can scrap in a room of my own, not in the living room.
Thursdays challange I still need to do. It is kind of tricky where I don't have a specific spot for things they are kind of all over and where I have room. As soon as I do I will take pics. Sorry Nancy.
