i've put off posting this today because i'm bummed that my man had to leave today. i'm not talking about the normal go-to-work leave here. i'm talking about the my-hubby-has-to-go-to-the-cities-7-hours-away-and-won't-be-home-until-thursday-and-i-have-to-spend-my-anniversary-alone-with-the-kiddos kind of leave. it stinks--at least we think so. you can take my word on that. but he had to go for some work-related classes or workshops or whatever they are. so i understand. really. i do. in my head i do. but not so much in my heart which tells me he should be here spending our special day with me!
so what did i do all day? let's see. i spent the morning here at my computer. mostly just doing some perfectioKnits-related stuff and Facebook. and dripping on occasion. after lunch, i decided to distract myself a bit and did a little baking. had to use up my nearly black bananas before they weren't usable, so i baked a batch of banana "muffins" for cj who doesn't care for cherries. {just used the same recipe and baked in muffin cups!} and then a double batch of my mom's banana-cherry bread. yum! the house smells wonderful! i just wish i hadn't bumped the top of my arm on the edge of the oven as i was reaching in for the bread pans. yowch! that hurt. still does a little. i used an ice pack to cool it down and it doesn't look like it's going to blister. still not really sure how that happened. i'm usually VERY careful when baking!
after my baking, i turned the computer back on and did some more perfectioKnits-related business {found some buttons that i think will be perfect for some of my items. good price. ordered 2 kinds in lots of 100. so excited that they're coming from the UK!}
we finally decided on ramen noodles for tonight's dinner.
[yes, mom, we'll manage. i even have chicken thawing in the fridge for tomorrow.]
and now i'm back on here writing this while the boys are deciding which movie we're going to watch. i think they've decided...so it's time for me to go!
