Technical Difficulties

Ok, just checked the last post and realized we are having a few technical difficulties with the videos. Unfortunately I won't be able to make any corrections tonight. Too, too tired. Here's how my day went:

6:30 Up to fry bacon.

9:30 Whole family to church where Cole participated in his Reconciliation Commitment Mass.

10:45 Visited overcrowded (i.e. smelly) grocery store with entire family so that we could spend $125 only to purchase crap that won't last through tomorrow.

11:45 Home to unpack groceries, feed family, wrap presents and wipe sweat from armpits (it must be 120 outside!).

12:45 Arrive 15 minutes late to 6 yr old's bowling birthday party with 5 (count them - 5) kids in tow, myself and my neighbor. All transported illegally by strapping 7 people into a 6 person vehicle.

1:00 Argue with son (yet again) - "No, you cannot have money to play video games. Bowl like the rest of the children. Don't make me take you home!".

1:15 - 2:30 Help to reign in chaos as 21 (count them - 21) 5 and 6 year old girls bowl. All attempts unsuccessful.

2:30 Thank you God we're leaving.

2:35 Wrench left ankle and right (bad) knee in parking lot.

3:00 Ice Knee

3:30 Clean kitchen. Keep cleaning kitchen. Keep on cleaning kitchen.

4:00 Cut Jason's hair.

4:30 Take a little more off Jason's hair.

5:00 Cut Cole's hair.

5:05 Threaten Cole with loss of life or loss of all hair if he doesn't shush the crying.

5:30 Take a little more off Jason's hair.

6:00 Make scrambled dogs (had a craving).

6:30 Clean kitchen....again.

7:00 Read with kids.

7:30 Kids in bed.

7:35 Make homemade Carrot Bread...because I'm an idiot.

8:00 While Carrot Bread is baking make homemade biscuits for breakfast...because I'm an even bigger idiot.

9:00 Make last swipe in kitchen...again. Bag and wrap biscuits and bread.

9:15 Hop online to surf mindlessly.

9:45 Notice something missing. Fix glass of wine.

10:00 Check blog and notice technical difficulties but have no capacity to think logically as is necessary for repair of said difficulties. Just too, too tired.

There you have it in a nutshell. My day.

Come on....don't lie. You feel like you need a drink now too, don't you?

Drivin' people to drink all across the world,
A
