Just another day at the Abbott home. It started with Palmer throwing up. Lots and lots of laundry. Unplugged a toilet - but not before it overflowed - everywhere! Took a car to be sold. Met with the insurance agent. Cleaned out my clothes dresser. Gave the boys haircuts (no time to take them to get it done). By dinner time
Britney and Davis were coughing, sneezing, sniffling and had their heads on the table. Worked on reading merit badge with Davis. Cleaned desk and went through the endless pile of papers and cleaned out purse. Figured and paid bills. Did manage to exercise (but not until 5:00 pm). Ate lots of chocolate cinnamon bears. Drove Davis and equipment to baseball practice. Copies of business stuff at
Kinko's at 9:00 pm (luckily Brianna got sent on that errand and to the store for food in the morning). Dad cleaned out boys drawers and closet with them at 8:00 pm. (I know I'm not going in order but that's how I am remembering it.) And all that blue - stuff - the liquid Tide fell off the washer during the spin cycle and of course the lid wasn't on tight (at 11:00 pm). We also watched all the news reports of Michael Jackson's death and Farrah
Fawcet's passing as well. Britney up at 10:30 pm crying because she feels lousy with a bad head cold. Put Britney back in bed at 11:30 and then folded more laundry. Changed a stinky diaper at 12:20 and blogged (during which time Ralph was cleaning out the storage room). Now it is 12:20 and
waaaaaaaaaay past time for bed! Sweet dreams!
PS: Thanks Ralph for helping me with all the laundry and storage room! I love you!
PSS: Ralph just saw the mouse that Brianna was sure she saw on Monday during FHE run through the garage. Found food to set the mouse trap (he ate all the peanut butter Ralph used on Monday). Hopefully now I am really going to bed!

Want to know how to clean up liquid Tide from the floor?
A dust pan, shower squeegee and a plastic bag.

I don't know why but Palmer always gets hair in his mouth when he gets a haircut.
Maybe because he is talking. Man they make me smile!
