SATURDAY……

Last night I took the younger two boys to get haircuts.  The lady that cut Erik’s hair was new and I was VERY unhappy with her cutting his hair.  I made another stylist correct it.   If you don’t know how to cut the style I ask for you should say so and let someone else cut his hair.   It doesn’t look to bad now, but I sure let them know I was unhappy about it. 

Off to a late start this morning.   I like to get to Aldi by 9:00 and avoid the rush.   It was fairly busy when I got there today.   I love Aldi…I bought 4 bags of grocery and spent 54.00.  Then I grabbed a few sale items at Cub and picked up bread at the Taystee Thrift Store.   I spent a total of $81.00 for two weeks of groceries.  That isn’t too bad at all.  

After I was finished with grocery shopping, I picked everyone else up at home after we unloaded and we headed to the library.   I had one book on Tape come in on reserve.  I will start that one as soon as I finish the Secret Life Of Bees.   This book, Can You Keep A Secret? by Sophie Kinsella has alot of reserves so I can only have it for two weeks.

After the library we had lunch and then it was nap time for Tommy and I.   Hubby and Erik went to half price books to shop.  Erik got a new video game and hubby a few computer books.   I read and napped, which is always nice.   Now Erik and Josh are cleaning and rearranging their bedroom.    I just wanted them to pick up the floor and vacuum, but now it is an all day clean job!   Oh well…..it needed a good clean.

Supper tonight is Teriyaki Chicken Wings and Chicken Fried Rice.  After supper we are going to watch Superman 2 and relax.  Of course Erik has seen it a million time he says and we haven’t seen it all.  Very common, you can’t find a movie he hasn’t watched at his mom’s already.   We just don’t spend our money on buying movies.  Josh is the same way at his Dads.    I will probably cross stitch while I watch the movie.  

Next weekend we are planning on taking Tommy to his first movie ever!    We are going to take him to the Winnie the Pooh Movie.  It should be fun for him and keep his attention for his first movie.  

Hubby had a what are you doing with your life talk with Josh today.  He has not been too motivated lately, but he is doing ok in school.   So hopefully he steps up to the plate on a few things we requested.  Don’t get me wrong I am truly blessed with a very enjoyable and non-attitudal teen ager.   I really don’t have much to complain about in that regards at all!   We jsut want him to be planning a bit more for his future.  He only has one year of high school left after this year. 

I need to run and straighten up a bit around here before supper is ready.   Have a great evening!  Sorry I haven’t been able to make it to everyone’s blog this week….I hope to get caught up this weekend!
