A while back various bloggers were taking pictures of a typical day. I really enjoyed being a fly on their wall. Being a little slow on the uptake, I am finally getting around to doing this.
6:00am
A London Fog, Beth Moore and time alone with the Creator of the Universe. It makes getting out of bed so much easier.
7:30 am
This is just the first round of my children's breakfast. They usually eat 3-4 platefuls of this. I FEAR for when they are teens. I may have to start selling my blood. Or theirs.
9:00 am
The night before Sprout had mistaken his bed for a toilet. I can see how that might happen, they are so similar and all. This is the last of the laundry from that happy incident.
9:30 am-1:00 pm
I saw this a lot. We went to the library and then Spud's therapy. I am so thankful that my van has comfy seats, I spend a lot of time in them. For all the cautious ones in my family, please note, this picture was taken when the car was stopped at a light. I do not take pictures while driving, I am too busy texting.*
2:00 pm
With the boys safely in their rooms for quiet playtime I put together a couple of casseroles and some bread. Before you think me a domestic queen, I make the dough in my breadmaker and then shape it and bake it. It is a more useable shape that way. This is about as domestic as I get. I am only now noticing all the crumbs on the counter. Classy.
4:00 pm
The rest of the afternoon consisted of stories, baths, supper and a game that involves monster trucks, my mixing spoons and running up and down the stairs repeatedly. I've learned to not ask questions but just play along.
7:30 pm
BEDTIME.
8:00 pm
A solo shopping excursion. Happiness is grocery shopping all by myself.
So, there you have it, a day in the life of a geek. GLAMOUR all the time I tell you.
*Hey moms, I'm so very kidding. I do not text while driving. Please do not call me. Or Way Cooler.

Very, very glamorous!!! Except for the stopped at a light car picture comment. Because what are you trying to say? No animals, persons nor vehicles were harmed during my photograph. (And I don't know how to text. Seriously.)
Ha! Happiness = shopping by yourself!
and STOP texting while driving. Friends don't let friends text in the drivers seat. ;)
PS: when's my bread coming?
Like TM, I don't know how to text either.
Yum! Your bread looks so delicious it makes me think I should get back to baking bread... but not yet.
As for texting, our youngest is pushing me and I am resisting. HG could you do a blog on texting for dummies? .... and I knew that you would not text and drive, I'm not THAT much of a dummy!
I BARELY know how to text. Just sort of.
And I'm a huge Beth Moore fan and haven't done the Patriarch one so now I'm super curious. I'm sure it's good.
Now I want bread...
Your life is so glamorous!!! Almost as glamorous as mine...
I'm totally calling Way Cooler to let him know.
I have no idea HOW to text, so I'm pretty safe with that one. However, I do occasionally put on lipstick in the car. And yell at kids. :-)
So you are like your sister. Nice to see your plates match the bowls or did you run out of dishes
