Someone fell asleep in my bed before dinner.
January 18th
Trying this bowl method I found to make my curls, better? It did okay. If you are wondering. Im not impressed, but maybe I need curl defining cream to go with it. 🤷♀️
I gave the kid’s bathroom a deep clean and a revamp. From minion butts to rainbows 🌈.

Kids are home sick once again. Decided to make them french toast for breakfast. Its a get shit done day – phone calls, appointments, emails, laundry, housework, and homework.
January 25th
Was looking at some dog tips and this came up. Anyone try this? 🤣

January 27th
A student made me a snowflake today. 😊
January 29
Went to the farm for milk and eggs today. Here is buttercup 🐄 🐮. On our way out, Harrison had a mishap that landed us in the ER.
Luckily he was able to just get some glue to hold it together. Not pictured is me holding him in the back of the car with a diaper on his face to try to stop the blood, on the way to the hospital.
January 30th
Spent the majority of the day with this tough guy. We made a cake and a giant pan of lasagna. In the afternoon, I spent far too long on my homework assignment that took me past the kid’s bed time. 😵💫
January 31
Hoping for a relaxing evening today after the kid’s activities and dinner. My eyes and head have not been so nice to me today.
