The Puddles

It was a looooong day.  It started by dragging our tired bodies out of bed to go pick Madie up at 8:00am.  Then home to start cleaning the house and getting lots of chores done.  I made a chore chart for the kids in order for me to get help with chores and for the puddles to earn some money.

I took Ben to art class and then home.  By this point I was exhausted.  The week had officially caught up to me, so I took a nap.  The Lord knew that I needed a nap to face my next challenge . . . lice.   Yes, I discovered lice on M. Poor girl.  I immediately went to the store to buy shampoo for six people (our girls -Ben wouldn’t have gotten shaved if he had it and the girls who came over the previously evening to get ready).  I dropped off the shampoo at the friends’ house with my sincere apologies and then headed home to start on Madie.  8 hours later, I was finished.  When I finished at 4:00am on Madie’s head, I drove to church to spray all of the places that Madie put her head down and bagged up all of the pillows that she used at the lockin.  The only good part about that evening was that I was able to real time text with Chris at 5:00am because he was up and touring parts of Turkey at the time.  That was fun.  But then I crashed and went to bed to sleep for a few hours, before I started the next day.
