Tuesday are Random they pop up Randomly

randomtuesday

Yep it's Tuesday again, ever notice how it Randomly shows up in like the almost middle of the week, not quite the middle, but randomly placed, ok so no it's not showing random but I'll make it random.

Dishwasher now works much better. A Valve had to be replaced, it was a little gunked<-- (new word apparently, ADD! )up from previous 17yrs of use or so. ICK! Hard Water is not cheap.

I did some easy baking this weekend, Peanut Butter cookies those 3 ingredient kind, egg, PB, and sugar, done! bake, and done. gone!!! all goneeeeeeeeeee the boys ate them almost the minute the got in the house. They didn't leave a crumb for Hubbie. He was not amused.

Friday was not a happy day here, my son was picked on and I'm not happy about it in the least. I will be talking to the school after I cool down. For all the talk about not bullying there wasn't a lot done about it either.

Christmas is coming and I'm not ready, I keep procrastinating, I've got to start making lists so that I can DO something! at the rate I'm going I wont have anything done because I haven't started the list and then I'll leave something half started or not done.

More tea, must have more tea.


Weight loss has turned into weight gain, it has nothing to do with the cake but it might have something to do with the leftover Halloween chips. Those chips? they say 90cals per serving but I swear when I look in that bag it should say less then 90cals, cause there is no way 5 chips can be 90cals?

I've decided I'm not going to be baking this Christmas, nope not going to do it. If you want shortbreads, I'll buy you one of those pre-made cans of the stuff or go to a bake sale and have someone else do it and wrap it and tag it and seal it up with duct tape. Yep that should help. Me? Glutton? no just impulsive eater or Seefood diet.



I've going to wrap up the random, I've got nothing else to put in here, I'm boring this week, nothing big happened, no chairs were covered in snow, no kids were curling(tournament at the arena), bowling was ok, we supported them well with the purchase of chocolate bars. I spent too much time researching how they get the caramel inside. The kids did help though, they offered to eat it all for me.


Oh I went to see my son do Judo this week, he's good, and those "games" they play (warmup, and theory) would probably have me sleeping on those judo mats! where do kids get all their energy? play play play, fight fight fight, play play play, laugh, run, jump, play?? Drum Drum Drum.


I don't even have pictures to add today. There are no leaves on any of my trees, there are no deer coming to visit. I think all the gophers are asleep, all the raccoons ate all the berries on the bushes, and all the skunks are curled up under my baby barn.

BTW what keeps you all reading?

Aw, you're poor son. Our schools have a no-bullying policy too, but I find a lot of the times they expect that'll be enough. They also don't account for the unspoken rule kids have on not ratting each other out. I hope you get it sorted out.

And I am so not ready for Christmas yet. Not at all. Wait, I do have three gifts out of the way. That's something, right?

WooHoo for getting the dishwasher working much better again!

Too funny your sons inhaled the PB cookies and didn't leave even a crumb for your hubby... ;)

Awww! Your poor son! Our school has a no-bullying policy, too... Hopefully you'll get it all sorted out and he won't have to put up with any more of that.

I'm SO not ready for Christmas. I think I'll do the same - at least write a list of what I need to do and what gifts to get, or I'm going to be running around like a crazy woman too close to Christmas. ;)

Hi Kooky said...

Go mama bear, looking out for your son! I'm sorry that happened. It's never fun. I hope your school is responsive and will clear up the situation.

This is the FOOD time of year, isn't it? It's hard! Especially the older I get...

Yay on the dishwasher! We have hard water too, and it really can do damage.

Well, I hope some furry woodland friends show up for your entertainment. The only critters around for my entertainment right now are my kids. :)

and those peanut Butter cookies??? yumm.. now you got me craving:)
Happy Tuesday!

I don't usually bake cookies. I bake other stuff but cookies are a hassle to me. This year, on the other hand, all I want to do is bake cookies. Very strange. I wish I could bake them and be assured they would keep til our Christmas party (Week before Christmas)

Happy RTT!

Glad to hear your dishwasher is working again. I wish we had a dishwasher. My husband is the dishwasher! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving.

I'll join you on the cuppa tea!!
I'm so worried about gaining weight this holiday season -- I'm still packing 10 pounds of pregnancy weight from the 3-year-old! Yikes!

Hope you get it all sorted with the school about your son.

I don't know what all the hoopla is about shopping for christmas. Heck it is still November.I don't get worried until anout 4 o'clock on christmas eve.I then run down to my local gas station-mini store of all things and purchase what they have left. Works and no pressure.
I am still carrying 20 lbs of baby fat 36 years later. Oh Well It will be gone soon I am sure.

I'm a listmaker too. i feel like i have to make a list before I can actually do something.

Debby@Just Breathe said...

Glad the dishwasher is back in order. Sorry about your son, I hate when that happens. Kids can be so cruel. I made those cookies and they are pretty darn good. I hope to be ready for Christmas, my plans are in action.

Amy said...

I would be sad if my dishwasher did not work..

Have a great day...

I just like to read your blog because I like to learn more about you.

Lists are life's motivators! I love lists!!!
Those peanut butter cookies are awesome! Now I want to make some. They are so easy, it's almost a crime not to!
I've given up on weight loss for this entire year. Eff weight loss.

Bullies suck!! My son had an issue with one in our apt complex one time. I yelled at the brat, then I yelled at his sister, then I ended with telling them both: I'm sorry your parents don't love you enough to raise you better!!!
It didn't end things, but it made me feel MUCH better.

I can't find my blog said...

Sorry about the bullying. Any resolution? It's so hard to be the parent in that situation. You want to be a mamabear, yet sometimes we need to step back and let them handle it. Hope it's better!

Bullies bite! Good for you waiting until you cool off, I'm a hot head. I would have marched right in and blew my lid. I hope it all works out.
