I'm just bored and figured i'd start a new topic. What are you doing?

I just got done watching my friends DD while she ran to a dr. appt and now Kaitlyn is down for a nap. I have a dental appt later and I hope they can fill my cavities at the same time. I'm also getting a wisdom tooth consultation as well as an ortho one. The works, I suppose! I'm coming home after that and making enchilada soup for dinner and hoping DH doesn't have to work job #2 today. Maybe i'll see if my Mom wants to come over for dinner?

I just finished cleaning the downstairs and now I am taking a break for lunch. I have to pick up the boys from school in a couple of hours and bring ds #2 to art class. Then we have to get back over to the school for back-to-school night.

I helped with the car rider line at ds preschool this morning. Then I ran over to hospital where dh was getting ct scan. Came home and rested for a bit because the last week or so have been super busy. Picked up ds from school and came home for lunch and a playdate. They found a frog and that made for great entertainment! His friend just left... Now I am doing laundry and dishes that should have already been done. ha Football game tonight - out of town. Another late night for us.

Well, I walked this morning after I got dd off to school. Then I showered and all of that and started laundry and then the pool guys showed up to close the pool up :-( The I did more laundry and paid bills. I also sometime in there swept the kitchen floor and changed the sheets on dd's bed. I also finished getting out my fall decorations! Dd came home from school, homework and dinner are both done and I have a room parents meeting at the school tonight at 7pm. Think that is about it!!

Husband will be gone until 10 pm, he just left over an hour ago. I'm currently nursing and typing, I got the dishwasher going as well as the clothes dryer. I just have to reheat lunch and dinner meals later. After that, I've got to get clothing ready for this weekend (son's Baptism on Sunday) and turbo clean the house as well as plan for meals and groceries, My MIL is coming this weekend and I'd like to have things nice for her. (She always helps me with stuff around the house, so I'd like her to take it easy while she's here this time.)

Ugh...Saw a new neurologist about an hour and a half away from me to help with some of my returning symptoms, only to find out that my primary physician's office had not faxed my records over, even though I called them this morning and confirmed that they were sending them and I didn't need to take them. How frustrating. And not the first time this has happened. I will be taking this up with them tomorrow!

Also, he gave me a very possible diagnosis that I'm not thrilled with, but it would be better at least having a diagnosis...

I worked half a day and bought groceries! May not sound exciting, but buying groceries in a STOCKED grocery store without armed guards was a thrill for me! LOL

By Dawnk777 on Thursday, September 15, 2005 - 10:30 pm:

Worked 11:20 to 1:00 pm at my school job.
Worked 1:30 to 5pm at my clinic job.
Came home, changed clothes, read email for a little bit, while the dog ate.
Then to the middle school for a light supper and Open House, so I could talk to Emily's teachers.

It was a busy day!

Wimpies or as known to others as Sloppy Joe's Recipe...

* 3/4 cup chopped onion
* 1/4 cup chopped celery
* 1 large can (15 ounces) tomato sauce
* 1 teaspoon seasoned salt
* 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
* 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
* 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
* dash Tabasco sauce or cayenne pepper
* 10 to 12 hamburger buns, split and toasted

In a large skillet, cook ground beef, onion, and celery until meat is browned and onion is tender. Drain off excess fat.

Stir in tomato sauce, water, seasoned salt, Worcestershire sauce, chili powder, pepper, and Tabasco sauce.

Simmer, uncovered, until mixture reduces to desired consistency, about 25 to 35 minutes. Spoon about 1/3 to 1/2 cup of ground beef mixture into each bun.
Makes about 10 to 12 sandwiches.

Kernkate, when I first moved to NEPA I had to call the local elementary school and ask what a wimpie was ( it was on the school menu)..the secretary was very kind in explaining it to this "newbie"...and my kids love them!

In Sheboygan and Manitowoc, Sloppy Joes are called Hot Tamales! LOL! I never call them that, though. I call them sloppy joes.
