Bragging Rights

1. Did laundry. Lots of laundry!
2. Made meatballs. And then froze them.
3. Made hamburger soup with Hubby. (to take to Quad War with us)
4. Cooked potatoes for a potato salad to take with us to Quad War.
5. Got the kids packed. Except for Eyes - she was asleep by the time I went to do it this evening.
6. Packed my own bags. Including a shower bag.
7. Got the kids to clean their room up.
8. Weaned Eyes completely.
9. Had a shower.
10. Did dishes like three times!

The first time I did the dishes was to allow Bear to regain his lost computer privileges. The second time was after supper and it was actually Smiles' turn to do dishes today so she joined me. The third time was when I cleaned up after the soup and meatballs and potato salad. So yeah I was busy today. And should go to bed but I wanted to document my awesomeness. Hahahahaha Right!

Anyways last night I went swimming by myself because Raven worked. I did end up at her house afterwards because I really wanted to get those two cloaks trimmed and clasped before this weekend. Raven had not been able to find the green griffon trim that DD had specifically Priority Mailed up to us so I could finish my cloak. Her son C-Man had been playing with it and it has vanished - poof! Hahaha. Oh well I still have my old cloak and I am sure the trim will turn up eventually. I can also take my cloak and wear it because it is mostly finished except for the trim. So whatever.

I did look again at the material I had left at Raven's and yes Queen Pet's cloak will be a tan shell with orange lining and an awesome trim. I even got the lining cut out last night. More than that and I lost my inertia. After all I still had to price the cloaks, look at what Raven had done (I was still there when she got home from work) and count out how many items I had done as opposed to her this year. The last bit was meant to be a joke but I discovered that this year I had made 24 items. Last year I think I had done 13? So it looks to be a good Quad War for stock! Eyes seems like she is sick (which I am desperately hoping she is not) and knowing how my life goes it means I will probably be sick for it too! Sigh!
