It's been a very busy week

Here it is so far, in a nutshell:

Monday: Got up…got everyone dressed, fed, and off to school/work. Checked email…read blogs, nosed around eBay. Called Dodge dealership parts department…they want $65 for a replacement hubcap for a 2001 Dodge Stratus. “I’ll get back to you”. In the meantime, I’m morbidly embarrassed to be seen driving that car.

Got dressed…ran errands. Home Depot, Target, Lowe’s…went to Let’s Do Lunch with Quinton. Had the usual: California BLT for him…egg salad on sourdough for me. Bread was dry. This place has really gone downhill.

Took Q back to work…stopped at the grocery store on the way home…couple’s making out at the deli counter…EWWWW!!!! I’ll come back when they’re gone. Bought eggs…margarine…stuff for tuna noodle casserole. Paid and went home.

I forgot the beef. STUPID sucky-face people! Back to the store! I would have skipped it, but roast beef is the only thing Luke wants in his lunchbox.

Boys came home…snacks…homework…dinner. Left for drafting class...took the Mustang…big mistake…big storm…parking lot flooded…favorite pink leather sandals SOAKED…bottom 10 inches of jeans, also soaked.

Came home…Q’s on phone…boys are fighting…everyone’s pissed because we got no rain at our home in Peoria…hectic bedtime routine begins…Jango starts screaming…I finally got the privilege to go to bed around 10.

Tuesday: Got up…and got everyone dressed fed. Everyone left at the same time. Driving south, it looks like rain…LOTS of lightning…odd sight at 8:30 in the morning…started raining HARD…traffic lights were out at 3 intersections. It took me almost an hour to get to school

Good thing finding a parking space was easy. Sort of. Parking lot was flooded AGAIN…got my new brown mocs wet…made the mistake choosing to carry a suede purse. Went to Staples…bought supplies for design history class…met Q for smoothies... drove to Scottsdale to buy supplies for drafting class.

Address on syllabus turns out to be a business office for a catalog company that sells drafting supplies…translation: “we don’t sell that stuff here”…Drove across the street to Kierland so the trip wouldn’t be a total waste…I was a bad girl at Anthropologie and Banana Republic…Hey, Mama needs new school clothes too!!! Called Meredith for advice on where to find drafting supplies…she gave me a nearby address…they had everything I needed. Time to go home.

Boys get home from school…time for a quick snack before taking Luke to drum lessons…came home…nothing’s thawed for dinner…Kyle and Q eat hot dogs…Luke and I eat sausage and fried eggs…baseball game on TV…homework…everyone needs Mommy’s help at once…baths and showers…quiet reading time….everyone’s in bed. Now, it’s my turn.
