Fun, soccer and scorpions

Now some may wonder what those have in common......just one thing actually. They all happened in one day.

Yesterday started the first day in weight loss challenge I'm in so I got up at the same time (6am) to get my oldest ready for school. While she was getting ready I took the dog for a walk. Although I am by no means a morning person, it is so beautiful that time of the morning. Anyway......I got the twins up at 9 and that's when the fun really begins. Diapers, feeding and playing. They just amuse me so much with the things they can get into and the things that they like to play with. Laundry baskets for example..who knew? These two fought over a laundry basket, so I gave them a second. Guess what? They fought over it. LOL. But the best part is when they decided to turn them over and try and stand on them. Now you know as well as I do, those things can't handle a lot of stress so I had to take them away. Start the waterworks.

So nap time comes and it's finally breaktime for mom. I heat up some pizza for my lunch and plop down in front of WOW (world of warcraft) and go thru the motions. I finish my lunch and soon after realize that I am falling asleep at the wheel (sort to say). So mom needs a nap.

After my oldest gets home from school, I hop back on WOW for a little while then get the boys up from their nap and finish with WOW. Finally got my first key frag from Slabs (not that we have to have it anymore but hey.) Then it's off to soccer practice.

I love soccer game days but I have to say that practices are an hour and a half of sharp needles in the eye. But it does give me some adult interaction (other than my husband). I walked for a little while during practice but not really long enough.

I get home from practice just in time to help my other (better) half feed the boys and put them to bed. We decided to have a little ice cream and enjoy what is left of his night. He goes to bed at 830 or 9pm. After that it's my favorite part of the day......the quiet time. Husband is in bed, oldest is in bed, twins are in bed, dog is in bed, two cats are winding down. Except for this night....

About 1030pm the youngest cat is playing with something in the floor and I assume that it's just a spider but then the critter ran and I saw that it had a long body. So not a spider. Probably a 5 million legged ugly bug (centipede, millipede). I smoosh it and pick it up with a napkin to take a gander at it. OMG it's a darn scorpion!!! In my house!! Next to my foot!! Gosh darn it, if it's not spiders it's scorpions.

So that was not the end to the night that I wanted. I had the heebie jeebies and felt like things were crawling on me.

This ends this post and I will see you later this evening or early tomorrow.
