My Life as Mama Jodi

Weekend rewind. If you want to play along, grab the above button and tell me all about your weekend!

Friday ~ What a long, busy, crazy day! I had to work all day, with a small interruption of having to go pick up Trent from school, then back to work until 8. The weather turned a little crazy, so the drive home was a little bit scary, but I made it safe and sound.

Saturday ~ I had a lazy day at home. I did some baking, and worked on my knitting until it was time to take Trent to work, then John and I went out for dinner at Logan’s.

Sunday ~ The day consisted of… John and I having “church” in bed. We had planned on getting up, but the comfort and coziness of the bed kept us from actually getting up. So we tuned into “Walking by Faith” from Res Life. Then got up to start the day of laziness (are you seeing a pattern here lately!?!?!), of knitting and watching football.

What did you do this weekend? Let me know if you play along!

It’s Monday again. Time to get your menus planned. Stop on over at Laura’s and see if you can some tasty new ideas for dinner.

Monday ~ spaghetti and meatballs

Tuesday ~ the guys are going out, so I think I will too… LOL

Wednesday ~ kielbasa and mac -n- cheese

Thursday ~ pizza

Friday ~ pork chops, potatoes, corn and rolls

Saturday ~ dogs/bratts, beans and peaches for the guys…. and for me… this is the actual girls night out!

“Asleep, they look just as they did the morning of the reaping that landed me in my first Games.”

I still can’t believe that she had to go back for a second time, and now she is unsure of Peeta’s fate. I am so loving this series! I will be sad once I am done reading it.

I have a very annoying rash right now! Yesterday at work, I started to break out after a stressful few hours, and thought it was perhaps just hives. But once I got home, I was rethinking that thought. They had spread, and weren’t welt like nor were they hot like other hives I have seen. I took some benedryl, to help with the itching, so I could try and get some sleep.

Once I got up, I saw there there were a bunch more spots, and my face was slightly swollen, as well as my eyes looked a touch reddish. I got everyone of to work and school and waiting for the Dr office to open up to see if I could get in to be seen. Thankfully I was able to get a morning appointment.

I have some sort of allergic reaction to something, they are unsure of what it is. I am on steroids for the next 10 days. I am so hoping that they kick in like the Doc says, as this itching is driving me crazy! Its not a contagious rash, so I wasn’t able to get the night off…bummer! So off to work I went, spots and all! As soon as I got home I filled the tub with tepid water and opened a pack of oatmeal bath stuff, that is suppose to help aid in relieving the itching and hopped in. I even went so far to research some other things I could possible use and found that seaweed powder may just help as well. I think I will skip that and stick with the oatmeal, as it sounds much more pleasant. I will say, that it does help out tremendously! As well as slathering on the lotion that has an oatmeal colloidal base to it as well. So I just may start smelling like oatmeal! LOL

Friday ~ Trent had a snow day, so I decided to skip my normal Friday grocery shop day and went back to bed after John left. Oh how nice that was!! Spent the day relaxing before I had to go to work. A very uneventful day!

Saturday ~ I got up early to beat the crowds and got groceries, then later John and I went to Costco to stock up on some meat, and check out some prices on other things. The rest of the day was spent being lazy, watching football and knitting.

Sunday ~ More of the same, just being lazy around the house. I wasn’t feeling all that great anyways, so it was kind of nice to do nothing most of the weekend.
