Today in lists

- I stayed up till 5am reading, because I wasn't tired enough to go to bed. I finished 6 1/2 books before my eyes started drooping.

- Got at the grocery store: creamy peanut butter, bread, noodles, milk, yogurt, mayonnaise, carrots, apples, 1 green pepper, 1 red pepper [because Hyrum asked for it, and 4-year-olds don't normally ASK for vegetables], olives, celery, broccoli, granola bars, corned beef, potatoes, spray starch, ice cream, cheese- cheddar, parmesan, mozzerella, and eye shadow [because I dropped mine in the toilet yesterday]

- Places I drove today: dropped a friend off at a meeting in SLC, drycleaner's to pick up Jared's uniform pants, Gardner Village for some yarn and needles [and 2 donuts to share between Hyrum, Myles, and myself], grocery store, gas station, and back home.

- I made: breakfast [oatmeal and chocolate milk], lunch [pb&j sandwiches plus a granola bar], and dinner [chicken and rice], knit half of a dishrag, piles of clean laundry on my couch that are still waiting to be folded, plans for Saturday, a trip next door to visit my neighbor, another list of books I want to look through, Myles spit out the dogfood he was tasting, and my kids mad by forcing them to play outside while the weather's nice.

eye shadow just isn't the same once it's mixed with the likes of toilet water...and how did hyrum like that pepper? i'm very impressed with his taste. oh, and 6 1/2 books? i've read that many, maybe, in the past 6 1/2 years. your nights are certainly more productive than mine!

Wow g/f...5am....6 1/2 books?? good for you. I used to be able to do that, now when I pick up a book at bedtime, I only make it about 4 pages and my eyelids start to droop. Right now, I'm reading a medical murder mystery called "The Surgeon" by Tess Gerritsen.

5 am?! How are you functioning after staying up that late? I do admire the 6 1/2 books you made it through--that sounds like fun. :)

The books part sounds way fun...the exhaustion the following day (I would be anyway) does NOT sound fun:) Hope you are caught up on sleep now!
