Chillin at home

Today we slept in, I think all my travels have finally caught up with me.  After we awoke and got out of bed i got the coffee started then the kids and i sat down to talk about today's plans while they had breakfast.  Misti ran to town to get some stuff done and to get a few groceries for us and Daddy.  The kids and I decided today would be a house work day so we divide the chores up with the promise of using the vacuume when each room was done.  they really like to vacuum, so when my room was done Payton got to vacuum it and when Patience's room was done she got to vacuum it and we let Misti vacuum her room when she got in.  with all of us working we got a bit done and all pitched in.  For lunch we had ham and cheese sandwiches plus some grapes that Misti got for us.  On of the chores Payton had was to work up the grapes by taking them off the stems.  I showed him how with a few, he picked them up and ate them then he started removing the grapes but instead of putting them in the bowl he ate them, it took quite awhile till we got any in the bowl.  Ha Ha.  Patience had a cantaloupe to scoop the seeds out of as one of her chores, plus she had to make jell-o so we could place the grapes in the cantaloupe and pour jell-o into it so when it sets up and you slice it you have a smile. We shall have them for desert tomorrow. 
So for dinner we had Daddy over to have curry with us, the kids and I just loved the curry, none of us can figure out why we don't have it more often.  Then after dinner I got a phone call to see if I could go to the school and open the board room to let the board pres in so he could get some phone numbers for the candidates who were not selected.  From there I went to Braums to get Patience and I a cold treat, Payton was already in bed so I will get him something later.  I told Brandy I had lost 3 pounds recently and so now I need to give them a going away party.  Ha ha  Well it is off to bed so I can get up in time for church.
