My So-Called Homeschool

Still no baby news.   Officially, her due date isn’t until the 27th (yeah, I have the 30th on my sidebar.  I was wrong and I’m too lazy to change it now).  Since we didn’t know what was going to happen yesterday, we just planned a quiet day at home.  Good thing, too, since Squid ended up not only working his scheduled 3am-noon shift, but an extra shift til 6pm!  It was a little bit rough for me — we were all a little stir-crazy, especially Monkey Boy — but overall a nice day.  I made a turkey, with stuffing (boxed from Aldi), mashed potatoes (instant from Aldi) with gravy (homemade), green bean casserole, and a pumpkin pie (yep, made that too).  I totally forgot the cranberry sauce til today!!!  Still yummy with leftovers.  I was having a bit of a pity party yesterday because Squid was gone all day, we had no friends over, the baby hadn’t come yet, and the kids were getting on my nerves.  But a new day, a new perspective.  He made GREAT money with holiday pay and overtime, and has another long day today as well.  The kids are all healthy, Fiona is fine even if still inside, I’m healthy, my hubby loves me, lots of things to be thankful for.  Even if it is a day late.

No Black Friday shopping for us — it’s way to crazy out there, even if I weren’t 39 weeks pregnant right now.  I’m sure there’s some great deals out there, but who in Michigan has any extra income to spare anyway?

So, I hope you all had a great day yesterday.  Things are going fine here.  I will, of course, update any baby news!!!
