Random Tuesday Thoughts, Bananas yummy!

I suspect it's the time of year but I'm so very tired. I've been working out every night and that gives me a bit of energy just before bed and then I get sucked into reading. There has to be a better way to energize? I can't go back to coffee but it's tempting.

click, link up over there and joint the random by Keely. 
randomtuesdaySnow, nope we only got about 5cm of the white stuff from that big storm that came up the east coast of the  USA. Today it's melting. YAY! for melting, I'm sure there will be plenty of snow in March though.

Anyone all ready for the Olympics? I so wish that CTV gave out better reception here, then I could actually "watch" them. oh well I'll hear the news on the radio in the morning, not half as exciting though.  Hubbie strained his eyes to watch the SuperBowl, I wouldn't trust our TV to help with any of the calls, "was that on the line over there??? or wayyyy waitttttttt over there? wait where is the line?"

Wow my kids love that wiifitplus more then I do, I have to actually wrestle it away from them. New RULE Mom's minutes come first. (as I sit here and MJ does his island view bike run, he loves the dogs)

Anyone got plans for Valentine's? we have none here that I know of. I'm not making any plans, but really is it "my" job to make plans? well I guess I could bake him some low cal brownies. hehehee now to find a recipe for lowcal brownies. Anyone?

The kids are having a party at school. AJ's class is doing ice cream sundays, we're supplying the candy to top it, I'm kind of disappointed, I wish they had used

things I never thought I'd have to say... "well hold on to it" in reply to doodle issues "Mommmmmmmmmmm my doodle always goes up when I point it down", the older two didn't mention this mechanical issue? Will have to confer with the oldest male of the house, since it's not in my skillset.

I found some pictures of AJ this week from when he was in K, picking apples. He looked so young but I don't remember him being "that" young when going to school, and he was younger then MJ is now. MJ wont go until September but I look at him and still see "baby".  I'm not ready.

We went for Groceries (fruit and veggies+) and the parking lot was still snow covered, very difficult to push a cart across but yet MJ was a great help. We got the job done. What will I do when he's at school next winter? Who will help me push the carts! who will remind me of what's on the list and what we forgot to put on the list.  I want my preschool years back;all 3 boys worth!


Speaking of MJ we'll be counting down the days to his birthday now, I told him 17days yesterday, today he said "how many days" I said 16, but I think he'll have a better grasp of the numbers once we get to 10-0 count down. He hasn't told me what he wants yet. I wanted to get him something but it's got to be ordered and I didn't get that done yet. I may need to move that item to Mr E Bunny's work and find something else. He did mention he wanted  a Furby? Do they still exist? We just very sneakily threw out the last one (from the 90's before we even had kids....because it wouldn't DO anything. We never got it to learn to talk. bummer!

Toilet Paper, how much toilet paper does a tiny butt need? I really wouldn't know I've never had a tiny butt.

Bowling training has begun for the end of season tournament. My Hubbie is coaching again this year, he's got 4 boys every Monday night. TJ must get his homework done first though or I the "bad cop" has to pull him! 

We now need to buy a sympol for TJ too, that boy is expensive, he's moved on from simple Snare, so more $$. Ok I've rambled and I Guess you're now up to date on all the boys stuffs.  Oh I lost.8k this week, YAY!

Banana muffins (loaf in muffin tins) are very hard to resist,but there are 5 left. I've had 2, boys took one each for lunch, MJ had 1 and so that means hubbie had 2? Must not eat the rest, must not eat the rest.... oh they are good.

3 mash bananas,
2 eggs (or 1 +2whites)
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup margerine/butter (soft)
2/3 cup sugar (splenda does work, but I didn't)
1 2/3 flour (I've used 1/3 of that whole wheat, yummy)
1tsp baking soda,
1/4 tsp baking powder
1/2tsp salt

Bake 350 as a loaf for 1hourish, as muffins? 24minutes. :)

Oh my, doodles pointing up. That's an issue at our house too, although I wish I didn't have to help solve it.

Did you say you've been working out EVERY NIGHT? You're awesome!
