The rest of the week thru Friday June 22nd

We have had a good week, seems everytime I turn around we are going shopping for something. On Wednesday the kids talked me into taking them to the mall. We walked around and looked at stuff and each went off on our own for about an hour. We really did not buy anything but 1 book for Brooke. We did get a treat at Sonic which was Sonic Blast of choice. Then we took a ride by Mamaw Gins and visited with her and Hannah for a bit. We also carried Blake to Blooming Deals(a consignment shop) at Curry. He has been asking to go there for days... I had never been there either...was not quiet what I thought.. basically it was an over priced thrift store, lol. Brooke was not impressed with Blooming Deals or the Thrift Store on Monday.

On Thursday I was determined to get some chores done....seems I wake kids up if I do anything early and you all know my motto...If it don't get done before noon it don't get done. So I did work on the storage shed for a bit and at least get the refrigerator moved out of the front of the window and get some stuff out to get rid of. I will say sharing a storage building with a KEESEE is a challenge. Well, we have his side and my side... I am contemplating hanging a curtain between them, lol. Can you tell which one is mine and which one is his?

In the afternoon we went shopping... hitting 3 different grocery stores before walmart...stocking up on sale items. Blake is such a big help to me on the groceries that I do not even complain when he slips in little things like headphones... I tell ya the boy earns them. WE also made a trip to Blockbuster. We spent the rest of the evening at home doing some rearranging of TV's and then Marcia came with Emily and we went for a lil swim.

Friday, I was determined to not go shopping and spent the morning cleaning and doing laundry, I prepared Taco Dip and needed Shreaded cheese so I did go to Gateway for cheese but dang they had a GREAT sale on Powerade and Kyle had been asking for uncarbonated drinks...so I stocked up. All the kids were thrilled with me getting powerade.

Blake, Brooke and I went for a swim and just relaxed until Pat and Kyle got home. Brooke had been wanting shrimp .. so this was the night we had been planning on steamed shrimp. Kyle drove me to Foodworld and we got shrimp. After we ate shrimp we went on a late evening pontoon ride and tubing. Was really nice out and others thought so too.
