I am a "doer", I HATE doing nothing all day. I need constant entertainment. Let me rephrase that, I can stay in bed all day and do nothing all day, if my lovely children are not around. When they are home on a Sunday with nothing planned, it's a game of who can anoy mommy more. I need an activity on a sunday. I think I am just in a bad mood. My day did not start off great. My son got his Gemarah (the book of talmud) today, and it was a fun morning for him, but not for me. I felt like a fish out of water. I am nt sure why, but I just don't feel comfortable in his school. That is another discussion for another time. Anyway. it just set the tone for the day, I think. I ran two errands and came home. Yussi had a friend over and he was fine, but he is never the problem. The girls are like me, they need entertainment. They where stuffing their faces and watching movies all day. I feel guilty as a mom when thy do that. I offered an activity but no one was interested. I gave up and decided to hide in my room with my hubby. He does the sunday hide, i call it. he pretends to be sleeping so nobody bothers him. I have tried it but they always find me. I crawled into bed and we watched a few tivoed shows. that lasted exactly 5 minutes, before Dee found us. Well we watched one half hour show that took an hour to watch, and i fell asleep so i don't know what happened. OH WELL!!!
I decided I would make my weekly menu and head to the grocery store and make everyone come as our activity! Doesn't that sound like fun???? I checked the "overflow pantry" and the freezer to see what was around. Then went to the kitchen to check the pantry. All I saw was a mess. I couldn't see what was in there, so I decided to take a few minutes and clean it out. I only got to two shelves bc i got annoyed. The bottom shelf in the pantry has a bucket and is designated to snacks of all kinds. It is also the place we keep the oatmeal packs. There were 2 boxes, one was empty and the other looked like it was opened but not used. The empty box thing drives me insane. Then they wonder why I don't buy more snacks. HELLLLOOOO? when i look in the pantry or fridge an see a box i assume that we have!!! I cleaned out all the snacks and organized it, they should have enough junk and stuff for at least a week! Then I moved to the next shelf.....i found 2 open onion soup mix boxes. Looked around and found 2 more. One was almost empty and guess what? the other was Empty! (except for the peeler in it, don't ask). So I can no loner be mad at the children because that is obviously a trait they have learned from me!!!
So now that I have a pantry full of stuff and a freezer with some stuff, I need to come up with a menu that everyone will eat.
I will keep you posted for the menu of the week!
oh by the way, the meat was a top of the rib roast and it was soooo good. My girls never eat meat or chicken and they loved it.!!!
