“What’s foorr diiiiinner?!” (insert whine here)
It’s the never ending question of the day! Not, “Can I help you mop the floor?” or “Did you need me to do anymore laundry Mom?” Little do I hear, “Mom, did you want me to bring you dinner in bed or fluff your pillows?” No…”What’s for dinner?

Vacation is spelled F-O-O-D…
Large families eat a lot of food. Our family is by no means as large as say, The Duggers, but we can go through some groceries.

Sorting is for chumps.
Not really. It can be fun if you know how to do it right. You know, with the 80’s music playing in the background while you do the 27,000 fling boogie? We have done two rooms and will work on 2 more tomorrow. I won’t say which rooms just yet. I’ll reveal that when I… Continue reading Sorting is for chumps.
