scrapbookbuzz Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 What's for lunch today? Me: NO IDEA! Which is why we're getting ready to head out the door to find out! :001_smile: What's different about your schedule and/or environment today? Us: dd is off on a field trip with the tweens from our homeschooling group. It's just me and my accelerated learner 6yo ds today. So, of course, he's almost completely done with school today and chomping at the bit to be outside, ride his bike, want Mom to interract with him constantly. Whew! What do you wish for today? Me: I wish we had a personal chef that would do all the meal planning and cooking for my family (and that I had the extra money needed to pay for that)! :D Talk to me!:bigear: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean in Newcastle Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 Lunch - Why, salad with protein, of course! Different - "emergency" appointment with my chiropractor this afternoon.

Koerarmoca Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 Lunch- leftover lasagna YUM Different- dd2 is actually interacting with a phonics dvd that was meant for dd5. Quite possibly the most boring dvd ever she is NOT big on tv at all. (big kids are at school 2 of them taking PSSA's today :glare:) Wishes- A maid and a bigger budget for schooling next year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tutor Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 Lunch: kids are having frozen lasagna (well, I cooked it for them :D ) and I am having a hummus sandwich Schedule: What schedule?! Ugh. Wish: That this stomach bug that three of us (and the dog) have been revisited by again today would just go back to where it came from and leave us alone. We've had more than our fair share.

Daisy Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 What's for lunch today? Pancakes made from the left-over oatmeal (kid request) What's different about your schedule and/or environment today? I flung cream into my son's face by accident (lid wasn't one well and I was trying to shake it up). I made all of us cry before 10am. What do you wish for today? A do-over.

mcconnellboys Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 We just got back from eating at Red Lobster. My older son is home from college on spring break. The younger decided he wanted to do half days this week (where we can) so that he could spend some time with his brother and that's what we did yesterday and today. They are out running around together now. It does my heart good to see them hang out together.... What do I wish for? Peace in the world; God's kingdom to come; aversion of crisis; a living wage for the truly poor of the world; solace for those experiencing crisis - so much to wish for. For me, personally? I'd like to figure out how my old self is going to earn a living once I'm no longer teaching a child. I've been out of the labor force a long time and need to help earn some money for my family if that is possible.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scrapbookbuzz Posted March 22, 2011 Author Share Posted March 22, 2011 :grouphug: to all of you! I know what it's like to 'make us all cry' before it reaches noon, I understand what it's like to be discontent and really wanting that house elsewhere! Update on our lunch: it wound up being McDonald's since there is one right by the grocery store that I had to go to anyway! Don't ask me about dinner,though!

felicity Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 Lunch: leftover white chili Different: My DH came home before noon today so I don't have to drag everyone to dance this afternoon and I get an unexpected hour by myself! That never happens, so I'm really excited. Wishes: a cleaning genie to come and clean my house for me. I would love for it all to be clean at the same time.

jenL Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 Lunch: Salad with turkey on top for me.

I really want to take a vacation. Wish: Inner peace & full contentment with all that I've been blessed. I'm tired and grouchy today, and I'm finding it hard to be thankful for what I do have.

Dobela Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 What's for lunch today?corn dogs on the fly as we stopped at home briefly between 2 appointments. I think they have upset my stomach :001_smile: What's different about your schedule and/or environment today?Well, welcome to the great pollen expo. My red car is now yellow greenish and we are all swollen in the face from allergies. Schedule wise everything is different as public schools are on spring break and all of our normals had to change times. What do you wish for today? that the argument dh and I have been having for a week now will come to some sort of resolution. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karen in CO Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 Lunch - dd10 browned meat and made a gravy. dd6 made egg noodles. They put the two together for a great lunch with strawberries for desert. Different - We've still got the flu hanging on here. The girls have done dishes, laundry, made lunch, and brushed the dog but haven't started school work yet. I'm hoping they'll make dinner too so I can get a nap. Wish - That I didn't feel like I needed a nap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
littlebug42 Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 Good afternoon everyone. Lunch: I had a peanut butter sandwich, Boo Boo had mac and cheese and Sweet Pea had grilled cheese sandwich (provolone on sourdough) with tomato soup. Different today: Sweet-Pea really started to get the hang of long division. I could kick myself for not going with Singapore Math previously. It has helped her so much. Wishes: To be Samantha from Bewitched for one day so I could twitch my nose and make order of this messy, cluttered house. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scrapbookbuzz Posted March 22, 2011 Author Share Posted March 22, 2011 Jean, you and my husband must be related as you're both instigators! ;) Possibly pork chops but my husband is going to have to cook them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean in Newcastle Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 Jean, you and my husband must be related as you're both instigators! ;) Possibly pork chops but my husband is going to have to cook them! I picked up St. Louis ribs from the grocery store. Add a packaged salad also from the grocery store and some brown rice and I've got a very easy supper. I need easy tonight.
