I’ve been soooo busy lately. Work was crazy the last few days. We’re preparing one of our big cases for mediation next week, so there has been a tremendous amount of work to do for that. I missed my lunch break several days running simply because there was too much to do and too little time in which to do it.

I spent three or four hours this morning working in the yard. The weeds were starting to take over everything, and I almost had to wield a machete to walk across the lawn. It looks much better now, but there’s still a lot of work to do before it looks good.

I also started packing up things in our master bedroom, because we’re going to be painting in there pretty soon. While I was doing that, I had to go through a stack of old parenting magazines. I decided to cut out all the recipe sections and put them in a binder. So many of the recipes looked really yummy and fairly simple to prepare. I really need to start planning and preparing healthier meals. I feel bad that none of us are eating as well as we should. Hopefully this project will provide me with much-needed inspiration.
