Quarantine Week 4

Alright we've made it through another week. The weather was AMAZING most of the week. I did a lot of yard work and sprayed down the house. We really really need to paint the exterior, I've been putting it off for years! I really can't decide if I should just paint it the same or change it up some how. I need a Joanna Gaines consult. Stat! I also sanded down a couple of chairs and spray painted them again, They were looking rough. I made a couple of face masks with supplies I already had. I don't have enough bias tape to make more and Walmart was out. I'm not worried about making the kids' masks at this point because we aren't taking them anywhere. Point of all of this is I finally started doing some projects. Go me! I'm not sure when I will get to that cleaning list I don't want to start.

I actually had to go into work on Friday. They had me making phone calls for about 4 hours. That is not my favorite! I got pretty good by the end and had a good system going. I'm not sure if I will work this week or not. I am just on stand by for if and when they need me to do something.

My friend Lisa had her birthday on Friday. We all got together in the parking lot in our backyard and had a distanced birthday party for her. It's the first time I've seen my friends in a month. It was fun!

The kids home school officially starts tomorrow. I'm nervous about navigating all of that especially with Corbin. The elementary kids are just getting packets that I'm assuming should be pretty straight forward but I'm not quite sure what's happening on the middle school level. I've gotten a few emails from some of his teachers but it's all a little overwhelming so I'll worry about that tomorrow.

Well nothing much else to write about. The kids are doing well overall. It's been hardest on Gabby who is more of an extrovert. Luckily her dance teacher is doing class twice a week online so she has some social outlet which is good.

I thought I would try to make crepes because I love them but I am intimated by them. I got a recipe and instructions from a friend. The key is...the right size of pan. I finally figured that out after making lots of disaster octopus crepes.

Alright that's all wish me luck with pages and pages of home school to navigate this coming week.

Corbin jumped in bed with me. Cutest. That never happens.

Octopus Crepes!

I had much more success with this pan.

Even the misshaped ones rolled up were delicious. 


Chair touch up.

Nana sent Easter things! 




The kids went with me to go wash the car. So exciting. I think it's their first outing in like a month! 

Face Masks.

Phone calls...EEK!

Birthday girl.
