The teacher thought otherwise!

Friday is Here. FINALLY!!

(art work by Catcher Dude)
Snippy the turtle sits proudly in my room on a shelf.


Alrighty Catcher Dude thanks for High Jacking moms blog. [post] *smile* Now we resume our regularly scheduled mommy rambles. lol. So today is Friday. It seems like this week it took forever for it to arrive. We all know that is Farmer*s Wife favorite day. But it sits at the top of my favorite days list myself. Dad Dude starts his weekend at 12:30 AM every Friday. Well, unless working OT, but how often will he do that? Not much as he is already gone so much during the week he is not about to miss any CD stuff Friday - Sun. Nope!! Soon Catcher Dude will be home and he has his 2 day weekend.

Not that we ever really get to see the weekends. Ever notice how those are the fastest 2 days in the 7 day week? Saturday and Sunday fly by faster than any other two days put together. Never really see them. You know they arrived. Says so right there on the calendar. The boys are here. But where did they go? Why must they hurry along? Must have something to do with the both start with "s". LOL. Couldn't possible be those are the 2 days we try to pack a whole week into? Nah!

So what is on tap at our Fields house this weekend:

Friday
Catcher Dude school.
Dad Dude errands of this and that sorts.
Me? Straighten house, laundry, dishes, and sorts. Dang those Gremlins!!
Baseball Practice.
Uniform sizing and purchasing.

Saturday
Baseball Registration (Team #2)
Batting Cages
High School Parent Meeting
Baseball Clinic

Sunday
Bowling Canceled due to next item.
Drop Dad dude and Catcher Dude off to their ride
Dad Dude and Catcher Dude driving 2 hours to go see WWE *rolling eyes*

Actually this is a quiet weekend. So I might not see that much of Saturday, but Sunday .. allllllll mine! I am free. Free. Free as a bird.

So that is about it around here. I notices a pattern lately and I really do not blog on weekends anymore. So if I don't get back before Monday,


'Happy Friday, Have a good weekend, ya'll'

Pictures from the Bored Baseball Mom

Alright. So I complain a lot some about being way to busy. But I don't like it anymore when life comes to a complete stop!!

So here is some this n that's from the last couple days.

(photo today. Sun out today)




(photo of Catcherdude shoveling yesterday. He did clear it all out y/day)



(today. Back at it again!!)



(Front today)



(pouting, because I will not drive him to the cages. LOL)


I am sure they will be back at school tomorrow. So a 3 day week isn't that bad. Especially for Catcher Dude as he only had a 3.5 day week last week, and a 3 day week this week. LOL. I can not believe it is almost February. January flew by!!

Snow Day Deux

Here we are again. At this rate we will be getting out of school, just in time to start school. LOL!! There is more snow out there. It is not as cold as it has been. I believe we are holding at 17F. Windchill below. They are saying we had between 6-8 inches, depending where you reside. But now the snow is done. So the kiddos will be back tomorrow.

Now how long will we be down here at home? We are suppose to go to TKD tonight, and testing is tomorrow. I am not sure how this will all play out. Currently I am trying to get Catcher Dude to move!! He apparently stayed up last night and was still up when dad came home. UT-Oh! This is not good. His sleep pattern gets so wacko. If he doesn't get up soon he will not sleep tonight, and of course not want to get up for school tomorrow.

Continue this later ....

Snow Day

It was nice to know before we went to bed that no alarms will have to be set. No schedules to keep. Just a lazy day. I really figured that the snow would not come. When all the hype is around weather coming, it usually doesn't, or doesn't in the capacity they say. Seems like we did get the 3-4 inches they were calling for. Now late this morning freezing rain on top of that, changing to more snow later in the afternoon - through the night. So they might not have school again tomorrow. The only issue I have with that is now we will be on borrowed time and will have to go to school into June. Nah! By then it is a PITA. Baseball in full swing and such. I would rather now just get it done and over with.

PLUS! The major issue around here with CD not having school, he wants out of here. He wants to either go to the batting cages, or the practice facility. Where I am thinking, hmmm .. school is closed and you want me to drive on that mess? Hmmm .. I dunno. But he goes on and on .. and on and on. Drives me crazy!! I am wondering if I even want to risk driving :35 minutes to practice tonight. I am not certain about the weather. With more coming and that such a far distance from us. Guess we will see.

So when all else has failed and mom will not get up and move.

"FINE!" Comes out his mouth and "I will just go see if I can shovel some driveways to help fund baseball this summer!!"

I said not a word! Man where went the days of Snow Days where we make coco and watch movies, make cookies, snuggle in bed and waste a day away? *sighs*

Teens .. that is what happened!!

Hope all the other moms of snow day kids are enjoying their day.
