Tackle It Tuesday

I Got these baked yesterday.
This morning I tried to wake Dash who insisted his desire to walk with me for he "LOVES" our time together. That child would not wake. Due to basket ball lessons I think he was really needing his sleep.
At 5:15 I fed the dogs and could not slip out so I took the dogs in hopes that Hubby would be able to rest better without them crying for me at the door. I went for a three mile walk.
Then after Willy relieved himself on a side walk...arg! I had to drop them off at the house and grab a clean up bag. I walked back to the scean of the dump and picked it up and threw it away in a nearby dumpster. By that time I was "a talking to my maker"... with a bit of frustration.
I then walked and prayed and just exhaled and sweat... 80*+ at 5 a.m.!
I was returning down my street to see the Dash on his way full speed to me. He had been sitting at the house porch waiting for me. He was so upset so I told him to go get his shoes and we can take another spin round the block. He was delighted!
I came home and packed Beloved's lunch and had a bowl of cheerios.
Mr. Uncommon helped me to get onto a new blog I have joined by invitation for weight loss.
Called "Eating for life"
Then I fell asleep on the sofa until Dash had a pan on the stove and an egg next to it awaiting my skill set :)
So after a bit I fixed his egg.
I went back and rested a bit more and just fraught my way out of the fog to get up and shower.
I even thought of my heart and took time to shave my legs and clip my toe nails and tend my feet a little .
We were a few minutes late for ...
Basket Ball Camp!
Yes 10 am-noon every day this week.
Strange thing is I am the only mom or parent there.
I do so hope that I will not need to get employment out of the house.
I so enjoy supporting the kids.
The children noticed yesterday that I was the only parent there. Dove piped up " you care about us!"
It really warmed my heart that they see it that way
This day is a full one...
I got there 10 minutes late oops...
The coaches are terrific!

They are actually learning the skill sets of dribbling and passing and so many others.

The kids are pretty good actually I was surprised to see them both being pretty able.
They both pay good attention to the instructions and show the coaches deserved respect.

They feel so good about themselves and it really is great to see them make the shots.

At half time they took a break for a snack.
Here they also receive some scripture time. Proverbs yesterday about the importance of learning.

After break they divided into two teams and did drills.

It was a treat to watch all the kids work.

They switched sides and continued

At the end they were being set up for the group shot and the woman was attempting to do so. Then I told her I was behind her I would like to get a shot also.
Her camera had no battery and so me there, having a camera ...
Well, It saved the day!

I was able to take the shot for her.
I left home with two kids , and
I brought home three.
They are playing...

I have this to do...
I started to clean the refrigerator yesterday. I was so hot that an ipifany hit me ...
Time to clean the refer and enjoy the cold air in my face! Ha!
ingenious!
Well I have to finish these shelves.
Dishes and make the kids all a lunch.

The little sign on my crisper is a joke from Mr Uncommon...
"Genetically altered food" I love organics and this is just a joke.

While the kids were having a computer time I set this up for them.

Kid heaven! After lunch they set this up along with the scenario and full character set to follow plot. See the robots and soldiers standing guard on the chairs. The sprite box is a homemade robot.

After lunch the kitchen is in the dish washing stage.
I still need to sort and wash our laundry.
Children are outside. They take little 10 minute stints out there and then come in and cool off.
See my beading station in front of the window. I am really enjoying having it.
Gotta tell you a funny...
I had a fly in the house...
I said aloud under my breadth "i wish he would just die..."
I was doing the dishes just had washed off the grapes and looked over to move the colander and the fly...Well the fly just dropped dead!
I think I'll wash those grapes a few more times :D
The kids and I are all just cracking up!
