Quickies...

Busy week...

*I finally cleaned out the freezer, including all the frozen breastmilk...it was all from last Dec. It was sad and if I had done it last week during PMS-craziness, it would have been a sad scene.

*Our 2yo is using the potty! He even pooped there!

*Watched the British comedy (thriller, police, shoot-em-up spoof) Hot Fuzz...it was very funny. I love Shaun of the Dead (zombie spoof) (by the same group of Brits)...it is hilarious.

*Watched TV's Women's Murder Club (based on some good James Patterson books)....disappointing, but I'm giving it some time.

*On a laundry strike (did you read that darling?)...I am not doing my husband or daughter's laundry until they put away what they already have. If you know my husband, you might notice he wears the same couple outfits....so you'd be surprised to learn that he has an enormous amount of clothing...that lives all over my house.

*Not sure how I feel about the now-mandatory moment of silence at all Illinois schools. It sure sounds like prayer but we'll see. I think it is pretty silly to require it...how are they going to monitor that. I'm glad our government took the time, energy, and money on this one...like there is nothing else that needs to happen in education (hey...where's that budget?).

*Enjoyed the presentation of the CPD Ballet Program at the library yesterday, 4yo wasn't interested but the older one was. But then I started thinking....it really sucks that the arts are very limited to those with money and time. Wouldn't CU benefit from a dance or music program that was FREE! and met at times that working parents could get their kids there? (note the park districts do have some scholarship funds available for their programs). CPD has a new website design, by the way.

*Went to Lonestar Steakhouse for dinner...Kids eat free on Tuesdays! It was a great frugal moment!

Have a great week!!!
