Hotel living

Ugg, I am getting old. We decided to go away for the weekend. My first time traveling with 6 kids. So first the hotel charges me double and says it will come right back off. NOPE, luckily I have USAA and they fixed the hotel error. Then last night I get the kids asleep which by the way so much easier than I thought. That was until 10:40 when a group of seniors came in.
Here is where I am old, at almost midnight I lost it and called the front desk. She assured me they had there own chaperones and security. Yeah, not working. It was 1:30 and they will still talking about food orders outside my door. So this morning I complained again. They said they would be here again tonight but assured me they would be in there room by 11pm. I decided to switch rooms to a floor without teenagers. The thing is when I check in I unpack suitcases and organize the room. Glad I enjoy doing this because I have done it twice in 24 hours.
I am not mad at the hotel, I could the employee was beyond over whelmed and was really trying to keep them quiet.
Today we are going to a POW WOW and I am so excited. I have never been to one. I just wish I would have brought my good camera. What are your weekend plans?

5 Question Friday

1. Are you a napper? Oh yes, as often as possible. Oh to be told to go to bed for an hour. Really it is more like 10 minutes on the couch. On Mother’s day I asked each of my children how they thought I like to relax and they each said taking a nap or going to bed. 2. What was your favorite subject in school? Most hated? My favorite was Home Ec with Mrs. Chapman. She taught us how to live and not just like she was doing a job. Every time I start cooking I always remember what she told me. As far as hated I do not think I hated any of it, there were teachers that I did not like the football couch I had for health (I think). I swear I do not think we learned anything all year. 3. Did you have the something old new borrowed and blue at your wedding? What were they? It seems like I remember something but honestly for the life of me I cannot remember what they were or who they were from. 4. What one thing are you determined to do this summer? A quilt or two. I have everything I need to make two just need time to set down and work on them. 5. Ice cream or Popsicles? Ice cream, love it. Sadly since the birth of my last child anytime I have ice cream I feel sick. It is just not fair. I keep thinking maybe after my next pregnancy it will go back to normal day. Pamela

Home Inspection

We have our yearly home inspection today and I am a nervous wreck. What if the grass is not perfect or there is a spot on the wall. What if the kids act up or the owner has decided to sale and I need to try to move with 6 kids.It has always gone well before but this time it is different with Rob being deployed. Please pray with me that I have kept the house well and she is happy with how things are. It was my idea to rent intstead of buy again but man it is hard. Pamela

efoodsdirect

Have you heard of efoodsdirect? I was recently contacted by them to ask if I would be interested in trying some of their products. I am really excited to get them in and try them. The pictures make the food look amazing. I think what I like most is that we really just do not know when a disaster will happen. Last year I was visiting my mom when my husband called to say they had no electricity. Within minutes I realized I a hurricane had come through our town. It took over 24 hours to get electricity again. I know to some people that does not sound like very long but with six kids it is scary. We have really been thinking about what we need to do to be prepared. Luckily when we lost electricity my hero was home with the kids. They probably would have starved if it was with just me. I copied a few things from there site to share with you: • • Quick and easy meal preparation for all budgets. eFoodsDirect meals are perfect for busy mothers, camping trips, and students because they are easy to prepare, lightweight to carry and cost an average of $1.50 or less per serving. All this and a shelf life of up to 25 years. Help others you love eat well. eFoodsDirect

meals can help elderly parents, those recovering from illness or injury easily feed themselves. Our products offer high quality nutrition and provide peace of mind. You are what you eat, and we won't give you any old ingredients, especially when valued sustenance is a key component to your daily meals. Storms and Weather. Catastrophic events, as we have seen, could make food impossible to transport, destroy crops, and isolate people from supplies. Serious American crop failures are creating shortages of food to be processed into supplies for people to store, even though you may not have seen these shortages yet in the grocery stores. I will let you know how the food tastes when I get it. I am so excited to try new food. The pictures are making me hungry. Pamela
