One of THOSE weeks...

Once again, my hat goes off to single parents. This has been a tough week...and as hard as I try, I can only be in one place at a time. Roger took the big boys on a fishing trip last weekend. So, I was responsible for several activities on Saturday, and getting everyone to church on Sunday. Not too bad. He got home Sunday evening. We had ball games and I had a meeting on Monday night. He then turned around and left for a conference at 3:00 a.m. on Tuesday. So, it began on Tuesday... Tuesday morning I heard Zane calling for me...and it was one of those calls that you know to come a runnin'!! Well, the kids had gotten up and thought they'd help me by running the dishwasher. Of course, it doesn't matter that I had already run the dishwasher, so the dishes were already clean. It's the thought that counts! Well, they couldn't get the dishwashing detergent open because it has a childproof cap. So, they used dishwashing LIQUID instead. Well, but the time Zane called me, there was quite a souffle of bubbles all over the floor and coming up out of the sink drain. All the kids came running...and I could tell they were wondering if I was going to "loose it". No, I didn't loose it...actually, we all had quite a laugh. Thankfully, it wasn't hard to clean up...
These last 3 days has been a whirlwind of piano recital, tae kwan do, young authors, youth group, baseball games...add to that school every day, keeping up with laundry, and various cleaning... it's been busy. I was in the car today for 2 hours and 20 minutes! That hasn't happend in a long time... Roger comes home tonight and we're excited!



If I had been on top of things, I would have gotten a picture of the bubbles before I cleaned it up. The entire dishwasher was filled with bubbles. So, I just left it open and the bubbles began to go down. Then I ran the dishwasher rince cycle.
