Back To My Weekly Routine!!

This morning after dropping off my son, I did what I did all last week! I had my breakfast and tea and watched a couple episodes of The Big Bang Theory. Then I went downstairs on the treadmill for about an hour. I went upstairs and was about to start my yoga when my daughter came home from her biology exam. She actually said that it felt pretty easy to her. Probably because she studied so hard for it. I hope that she did well!! She made herself something for lunch and I did my yoga DVD. Then I went upstairs and had a shower. Then I dried my hair and went and picked up my son from school. I came home and drove my daughter to dance. When I got back into town I stopped at Sobeys and bought a few groceries. Then I came home and started supper. I made some chilli for supper. After eating supper, my oldest daughter and I watched Criminal Minds together. Then my son told us some jokes. I’m bad at remembering jokes, so he had me write down the ones that really made me laugh down in my notes section on my phone!! Then I got him ready for bed. When we were upstairs getting ready, my younger daughter came home from dance. Once he was asleep, I went on my phone for a while. Now I’m going to get ready for bed, because I went to bed late last night and I feel tired today!!

Night All! 💤😴

A Very Busy Day…

This morning I woke up at 8:45. I got dressed and then I went downstairs and had something to eat and my morning tea. Then I drove my daughter to the studio. She had a 45 minute solo rehearsal from 10:00 – 10:45 and then she had a modern practice from 11:00 – 1:00. After dropping her off, I went to my mom and dad’s house. My mom was at church, but my dad was home. He was working in his work room. I brought my workout clothes, so I changed and found a YouTube video on my iPad, then I went on their treadmill for an hour. Afterwards, I had a shower at their place (I brought some clean clothes and my travel shampoo and stuff!) Once I finished showering, I had something to eat with my dad. Then I went and picked up my daughter. We drove back home. Apparently my hubby wasn’t feeling well, he texted me while I was gone. It seems like he may have picked up some kind of flu or something. He was throwing up on and off all morning. I went upstairs when I got home. I put my sweaty clothes in the wash and straightened my hair. Then my son came upstairs and wanted to play. So, we played a couple more of his made up games. My oldest daughter got off work at 2:45. We were waiting for her to get home, so that we could head back to my parent’s house. My younger daughter has her biology final exam tomorrow. She has been studying this subject for days and she didn’t want to come with us to my parent’s house, because she didn’t want to miss any study time!! My daughter came home and the 3 of us left, because my hubby was sick, he also stayed home. When we got there, my Uncle Allen and Auntie Shirley were just leaving parents house. We said hello to them, I hadn’t actually seen them in quite some time! Once they left, my dad and my son played chess on the new chess board that my parents bought my son for Christmas and my mom, my daughter and I played Bananagrams. Then we played a different word association game afterwards, my mind is totally blanking on the name! Then my mom made gravy and finished supper, while we set the table and washed up for supper. After supper some of had coffee and we all had brownies. We played another card game that my parent’s have at their house. I can’t remember what it’s called. After a couple of rounds of that game, we left their house and I drove home. I dropped off the kids and drove to Sobeys. I bought a few groceries, then I went to the Rexall quickly and, seconds later, realizing that I forgot something there, I also popped into the Shoppers quickly!! Then I went home. My son was having a quick bath, my oldest was just going to bed, because she works early again tomorrow morning and my younger daughter was still studying. I put away the groceries, then I went upstairs and got my son into bed. I went on my phone for a while. Then I wrote this, I just fell asleep a couple times while writing…like the other night! Now I’m exhausted!! I’m going to get ready for bed now!

Slept In Late…Yikes!!

This morning I slept in. I’m not surprised considering how late it was when I finally went to sleep for good. Even though I did fall asleep about a million times while writing last night!! When I did finally wake up I went on my phone for a while. Then I saw that my mom had called me, so I phoned her back. Then I went downstairs and had something to eat and some tea. I talked to my daughter for a while and hung out in the kitchen with her. I had about 3 days of emails to go through, which is far too many and seemed to take forever! Then I realized that I didn’t have a lot of time. So I went on the treadmill for only about 45 minutes and then I had a shower. My daughter and I left right afterwards. I had to pick up some windshield washer fluid and fill it up before we left. I’m 99% sure that my van is leaking washer fluid, because it has to be filled far too often! My hubby said that he was going to check for a leak, but he hadn’t done so yet and it was completely empty again and everything was melting outside because of our strange warm weather. So, I had to fill it up again. Even if half of it is going to drain right out of it. I couldn’t drive on the Anthony Henday with a completely filthy windshield and not be able to clean it!! The fluid only costs $3 at No Frills. So it’s not breaking the bank at least!! After I dropped her off I went to Winners briefly, I had to wait more than 10 minutes on the way to and from Winners for the darn 50st train!! That train is so bloody annoying! It just pulls into the road and stops, then moves forward a bit and then backs up some and then moves forward again or stops completely again etc etc… you get the picture!! Super annoying!! And it was there on the way to Winners and on the way back from Winners!! Lucky me! Good thing I just grabbed one thing and was heading back to the studio to wait in the parking lot. Otherwise my daughter would have been hanging out waiting for me!! When she did finish dancing, we drove back to Beaumont and for once I didn’t have to stop anywhere, so we just went straight home!! My hubby had made supper. So we were able to eat once we got home. He left and went to his friend’s place for a while. I played a few made up games with my son. My daughter studied for her finals. Her last two exams are Monday and Tuesday. My son and I played until it was time for him to get ready for bed. Then we went upstairs and I got him into bed and I read and sang to him. Then I went on my phone. Now I have a headache and I am feeling tired. So, I’m going to get ready for bed.

So Freaking Tired

This morning after dropping off my son at school, I came home and woke up my oldest daughter. She had some things that she needed to pick up at West Edmonton Mall and she had to be back home by 2:30 at the latest, because she worked at 3:00 today. So, we had breakfast and I had some tea, then we got ready to go. Then we left. We stopped at the Shoppers on our way out of town. She needed to pick up her prescriptions and a couple things and I needed a few things. Then I drove to West Edmonton Mall. We first went to Saje, where we bought drops for our diffusers. Then we went to pick up a few other things that we needed at the The Mall. I’d list them, but I just fell asleep for an hour and trying to write this! I am just so tired right now and it’s already 2:00 am! I really really want to get to bed and go to sleep!!! I am just so so tired and it’s so freaking late!!

Okay. I can’t do this. It’s impossible… another hour passed and it’s 3:00. I really must get my tired butt to bed. I have written and deleted things SO many times that I’ve lost count! I actually just forced myself to sit up to actually finally just finish this stupid thing so that I can go to sleep!! It is going to be short…

After my daughter had everything that she needed from West Edmonton Mall (I had hardly any money to spend…I bought a couple very small and inexpensive things that I really needed, but that is all!!), we hopped into the van and started for home. We arrived without much time for my daughter to get ready for work. So, I made her a sandwich while she quickly got changed. Then she left. My younger daughter came with me to pick up my son from school. Once he was in the van, we drove to my daughter’s friend’s house and my daughter ran inside and picked up her favourite blanket that she forgot when they were studying yesterday. We came back home afterwards. I was going to go on the treadmill. I went upstairs to get ready. I took a while in my room, going through some things up there. I went downstairs at about 4:45 and realized that it was actually pretty late to be starting on the treadmill. So I started supper instead. After cooking and then eating, I went downstairs and went on the treadmill for 60 minutes. Then I went upstairs and had a shower. After my shower, played a couple things with my son upstairs on my bed. Then I started getting him into bed. My oldest daughter came home from work. She began reading a new book that she bought to him. He fell asleep while she was reading it. We talked for a while, then she went downstairs for something to eat. I went on my phone for too long. Then I tried to write this and the whole falling asleep thing started to happen. Now, FINALLY I’m going to go to sleep!!

Dr May

This morning I had my usual breakfast and tea after dropping off my son at school. I watched one episode of The Big Bang Theory, then I drove my younger daughter to her friend’s house where they were all going to study for their final exams. Then I came home and went on the treadmill for 66 minutes. Afterwards, I woke up my oldest daughter and then I went upstairs and quickly showered. Then my daughter and I left and I drove to the city for our dr’s appointment at the Allin Clinic with Dr May. I got refills for my prescriptions, I have way less prescriptions than I used to! She gave me two different creams, one for the weird itchy spot that I have had just under and behind my arm a bit and the other for a weird dry, scaly, rash that I have around the base of my neck. I have no idea what caused either of them. Both have been driving me crazy though. They are both itchy and annoying!! My daughter and I went into our appointments together. Hers was right after mine. She also got refills on all of her prescriptions. A couple of them were also changed. When we finished there, we drove to South Common. We went to Indigo/Chapters. My daughter bought a book for herself and a calendar and a book for my daughter and a couple small books for my son that finish off a series that he and I are currently reading! Then we drove home. We got into town just in time to pick up my son from school. We went home and my daughter was ready for me to drive her to dance. We had to stop so that I could fill up the van with gas on the way. Then I dropped her off at dance and drove back to Beaumont. I stopped at the Shoppers and picked up my prescriptions. Then I went home. I went upstairs and had a cuddle with my son for a few minutes. Then we played on my bed for about 30 minutes. Afterwards we went downstairs and he went on my phone and I cooked supper. By the time it was finished and I was finished eating, I had to leave to drive to the city to pick up my daughter from dance. We drove home. When we got home, my hubby was still upstairs putting my son to bed. I filled up my daughter and my water bottles and then I went upstairs. I got myself ready for bed, then I started to write this. Just like yesterday, I fell asleep while writing this!! I’m not sure why I’ve been so tired the past few nights, but I’m feeling exhausted!! I’m going to get to bed right away!!

Night All! 💤😴!!

A Day Off From Exercise!

This morning after I dropped off my son, I had some breakfast and my earl grey tea. Then I watched this weeks episode of The Good Doctor with my hubby. I also watched one episode of The Big Bang Theory. Then I went upstairs and got dressed and ready to go. Then my younger daughter and I went to the Nisku Costco for her Contact Lens fitting appointment. After the appointment, I picked up a few things from Costco, then we drove back to town. I decided to take the day off from the treadmill and yoga, because for some reason I was feeling really exhausted today. So I went upstairs and took a nap for a couple of hours. I was surprised at how quickly I actually fell asleep. I thought that I would just lie down and rest for a bit, but I actually fell asleep almost immediately! I woke up to my alarm at 3:00. So, I got up and got dressed again and picked up my son from school. I brought him home and then I left right away with my daughter and drove her to dance. When I got home I had to go to the bank quickly. Then I came back home and started supper. My son and daughter wanted tacos. So, I made them tacos. After supper, my daughter and I watched a couple shows. Then we tidied up the living room. My son was downstairs playing a video game with my hubby. My daughter had a ride home from dance tonight. She got home just as I was taking my son upstairs. I said goodnight to her, then got my son into bed. Then I went on my phone. Now I’m going to get ready for bed.

Eye Appointment!

This morning after dropping off my son, I ate breakfast and drank my tea while watching an episode of The Big Bang Theory. Then I got my workout clothes on and went downstairs and went on the treadmill for 75 minutes. Then I went upstairs and did my yoga DVD. Afterwards, I had a shower and quickly dried my hair. Then I took my younger daughter to the eye doctor. We got her updated prescription. Her eyes have gotten a bit worse. She needs contacts for dance. We have an appointment for a contact lenses fitting tomorrow at Costco. They are much cheaper than the place where we get our eyes checked. Quite a bit cheaper actually. So, we are going there instead. Last week my hubby only worked for 3 days and he received a phone call today telling him that there isn’t enough work for him and the other temporary guy for the rest of the week!! This is bad for us…really bad! I’m not sure what we are going to do. My dad was going to pick my oldest daughter up from work today and tomorrow, but I let him know that he wasn’t going to have to. After my daughter’s eye appointment, we came back home. I dropped her off. I had about 10 minutes at home, then I went to my son’s school to pick him up. I brought him home. Then I had a half an hour until I left with my daughter to drive her to dance. I dropped her off and then drove to my mom and dad’s house. I visited with them for about an hour and 15 minutes. Then around 6:00 I went back to the studio and picked up my daughter and we drove home. We stopped at the Shoppers in town and then went home. My oldest daughter had made supper while I was gone , thank goodness, because I was feeling super hungry!! I ate quickly. They had made something different for my son, because he didn’t really like what they made. My younger daughter also didn’t really like it. So I made her a few perogies. My oldest and I watched a show together. My son was in the basement playing a video game with my hubby. Afterwards, I started to get ready to take my my son up to bed. Then we went upstairs. I was feeling super tired today. I actually just fell asleep until right now. I just had to shake myself awake to finish writing this!! I’m definitely going to get ready for bed right away!

A Full Day!!

This morning, after dropping off my son at school, I had my breakfast and tea while I watched an episode of The Big Bang Theory. Then I changed into workout clothes and went downstairs and went on the treadmill for 47 minutes. I watched a shorter YouTube video today, because I had a dr’s appointment in St. Albert at 1:10 and I wanted to be able to shower and dry my hair after getting off the treadmill, before going to the dr’s appointment, which is exactly what I did. My hubby took the black car and met me at Dr Hauptman’s office. We took separate vehicles so that he could go straight to work after the appointment and I could drive home. My appointment went fairly quickly, because I’m feeling pretty good. My TN pain has not bothered me in some time (knock on wood) and even my headaches have been manageable recently. The Topomax, Zomig along with the injections when needed seem to have settled them down. He’s quite happy that I’m back on the treadmill and doing yoga. I have to clean the living room, so that I can do my yoga DVD. Today was too busy to do both the yoga and the treadmill, so I just did the one. Anyway, after my appointment, I drove back home. When I got there my hubby called me and said that when he got to work they told him that one of the trucks didn’t come in, so there was no work today. So, not only did we waste gas by taking 2 vehicles, he’s losing a days worth of pay…sigh. So frustrating!! When I got home I had something to eat. I also woke up my oldest daughter. My younger daughter is home, because it’s her final exam weeks (this week and next week) however, she was up this morning. After eating, I had to go pick up my son from school. When I got home, I got him a snack and I also got my daughter a snack to eat in the van on the way to dance. I dropped her off and drove back home. I took some chicken breast out of the freezer for supper. While it was defrosting, I called my friend on the phone. We talked for a bit. Then I got off the phone and started supper. After supper, my daughter and I watched a show. We had about a half an hour to kill, before she had to go to bed and I had to leave to pick up my daughter and her friend from dance. When I did leave, I popped into Shoppers on my way and picked up my daughter’s and my prescription. Then I drove to the studio in the city. I arrived about 15 minutes early. I just sat in the van and waited. It’s actually kind of peaceful and quiet, waiting for her in the van. I almost fell asleep!! When they came out we drove back to town and we dropped off her friend at her mom’s house. Then we came home. My hubby had put my son to bed, because my daughter has to work early tomorrow morning, so she went to bed early. So my son was actually sleeping when I got home for once!! I filled up my daughter and my water bottles and then I came upstairs. I got myself ready for bed, then I went on my phone for a while. Then I wrote this. Now I’m going to hit the hay!!

Swimming For My Son…

I slept in again today, because that’s what I do on the weekend. My son went on my phone for a little while. Then we went downstairs together. I got him some waffles for breakfast. Then I made myself something to eat as well. After eating, I got my son’s swimming stuff together. He got changed and I also got dressed. Then I drove him to the pool. I paid for him to go swimming. His friend and his friend’s big brother walked in right after I paid. Since he’s 8 years old, he’s old enough to swim without an adult with him in the pool. When they were finished swimming, they were going to walk to his friend’s house to play for a while. After dropping him off I went back home. I made a grocery list. My daughter started with me, but she had to go to work. So, I finished the list by myself. Then I got changed into workout clothes and went downstairs and went on the treadmill for 75 minutes. Then I went upstairs and had a shower. When I got out of the shower, I got dressed and went and picked up my son. He didn’t want to go shopping with me, so I brought him home. My younger daughter was home, so he wouldn’t be home by himself. I went to No Frills for a big portion of the groceries. Then I went to Sobeys for the remainder. I picked up my prescription at Shoppers and then came home. My son and daughter were starving when I got home, as was I. So, I put some food in the oven, before I put all of the groceries away. Then I put all of the groceries away. Just as I was finishing, supper was ready. So we ate supper. My son was playing an online video game with a friend. My daughter wanted to eat in her room anyway, so I just let him eat while he played. It was a very informal meal since it was just the 3 of us!! After eating my hubby came home from his friend’s house. He was watching football there all day. I went on my phone briefly. Then I cleaned up from supper. It was already pretty late, because we had a fairly late supper. So, I started filling my son and my water bottles. We take them upstairs at night time. I got in the habit when some of my medication would give me a really dry mouth in the night. Then I just started doing the same thing for my kids. I took my son upstairs to get him ready for bed. After reading and singing to him, I went on my phone for a while. Now I’m going to get ready for bed.

Studio Sleepover!

I slept in a bit this morning. When I went downstairs I had something to eat and I had my regular earl grey tea. My son was playing a video game. My daughter was finishing her tea. I went on my phone for a while. My mom phoned, so I talked to her for a while. Then, when I got off the phone, my daughter was getting ready for work. Once she left, I went upstairs and changed into workout clothes and went downstairs and went on the treadmill for 73 minutes. Once I finished I went upstairs and showered. Then I made my younger daughter a quick grilled cheese sandwich. When she was finished eating, we drove to the Dollarama and she got a few different candies for tonight’s dance sleepover. Then I drove her to the studio. We arrived a little early, so we waited in the van. It’s really cold outside and they weren’t opening the doors until 7:00, so I wasn’t going to make her wait outside in the cold! Once she went inside I left for home. I stopped for gas on the way. When I got home it was just my hubby, my son and I. We had supper, then my hubby went into the basement. My son played a video game online with his friend. I half watched him and half went on my phone. After a bit my daughter came home from work. Then I got my son into bed. As per usual, I went on my phone for some time. Now I’m going to get ready for bed.
