~ A Sunday at Home ~

It started out with cuddles from a certain handsome little devil at 7am…ahhh got to sleep in!  Then more cuddles on the couch while the coffee brewed.  We watched the morning news and then Randy made bacon & eggs for breakfast.  We cleaned up the house and got laundry etc done.  It is so nice having a clean house!!!

After all that we got dressed and went for groceries and returned library books.  Of course Ethan fell asleep in the shopping cart at Superstore.  Silly boy, missing out on the shopping! 

This afternoon we just hung out and did some baking.  Randy made a chocolate, peanut butter, marshmallow square, and I made banana bread.  The crock-pot cooked supper for us:  BBQ beef.  Mmmm mmm good!  We had coleslaw and baked fries with Epicure’s Pesto seasoning to go along with the beef on buns. 

The crock-pot may have to be put down though.  I kind of sort of melted the whole dial on it tonight.  Oops!   Which sucks because I just bought it a year ago.  I am going to make sure that I buy one that has a timer on it this time though.  I am using my crock-pot so much now, it will be nice to have better control over the cooking times and temperatures.  So time to save my pennies and look for a good deal!  I don’t even know if I will be able to use mine at all again.  I think it is permanently stuck on low.  I suppose it is better then high though!

Anyhow.  Ethan went to bed early tonight.  I don’t think he’s feeling well because he’s been sleepy all day long.  We’ll see how the night goes…he was up a few times in the night last night.

Now I’m baking bread for lunches for this week and playing online while watching the Grammy’s and Randy is playing WOW.  Tigger is snoring beside me and having a good nap!  It is a nice quiet night!

This week is work until Thursday and then I may go to Slave Lake to do audits if the roads are good.  Then I will be back to work until Monday…and around and around we go! 

I am so grateful to have had three days off to rest and relax.  I’m hoping to do it more often!  We have three days off together for Family Day weekend too!  I hope we can find something fun to do!

Anyhow, that’s what Sunday looked like around here, hope you all had a great weekend!
