Tonight I made yummy chicken cheese enchiladas they were sooooo good. I never cooked like this before. at first I wasn't sure if I could do it with out help but I did it! I also did it while I was watching my neighbors daughter. Then I went over to her house to put her to sleep and wait for her mom and dad. Very busy day.

This is about one third of the kids that a couple of other mothers & I had to keep quiet in this room during two performances, today. They did pretty good for the first one. Not so much for the second one. Spending this much time with other people's children, though, almost always makes me appreciate mine more.

Today its Jessica's 19th birthday! I made a great dinner chicken with vegetables and rice. I didn't end up taking a picture of it cause it was gone so fast. I baked a pumpkin pie and had that for dessert. I really never cooked anything from scratch The most difficult thing i've made was mac and cheese. I am now starting to learn to cook. If you have any great recipes please send them my way. I am really liking to cook.

I finally found the time to make an appointment to meet with the food service representative for the school district. She gave me all kinds of ingredient lists and preparation information so that we could decide which school lunch menu items were safe for Shelby & which weren't. He's having hot lunch at school, tomorrow!

Just before dinner, we decided to go out & try to fly a kite in the blustery wind. The kite flew great, although kind of crazy at times. Then the string broke & the kids had fun chasing it across the park.

Westboro Baptist Church was planning to protest North Central College's screening of the movie, 'Anatomy of Hate'. The students planned a counter-protest & celebration of the power of love. Westboro didn't show up, but the students were awesome!

I was at another doctor appointment today. Nothing seriously wrong with me, I just tend to do this...get all of my appointments at the same time of year and then I'm done for a while. I had an eye doctor appointment today at 10:30...I was completely amazed that I was called into an examination room so quickly (Less than 10 minutes).
Maureen October 19, 2010
Playing a new card game that we got for Jim for a very, very early birthday present. Annie & Jim have been playing all kinds of board games, card games & role-playing games, lately.

I have been having numbness/tingling in my legs and arms. The doctor ordered and MRI to check out my lower back. I've never had one before, I had to keep telling myself that it would be over soon and that I'd be ok.
