Just kickin' my feet up

I am SO glad this Monday is almost over.
The morning came WAY too early!
After another weekend of volleyball, my work at home was way behind.
Add that to all the extra hours at work and you get a glimpse of what my day today would be like.

I had to get into work today because of all the Valentine's day customers.
We are always hit hard in the cake department.
This year was no exception.
My boss told me that in the first 14 days of February, our store sold 122 cakes.
That is a record for us AND we out sold the Bloomington store!
I was very proud :}
Then I had to get to work!

About this time each year, I start putting extra cakes in the rear freezer to keep from running out of any cake.  Today was the day to get started with that job.
At any one time, we try to have a total of 8 of each cake on hand.
4 small and 4 large.
This will usually get us through a week.
This also keeps me from having to work weekends.
I worked on building cakes, making ice cream sandwiches and cupcakes.
I completely ran out of cupcake and cookie supplies so I focused on cakes.

I bugged out about 3 and headed home to get to work on cleaing the house.
This morning I woke up to gum wrappers on the family room floor and a (single) Cheerio on the island.
For some reason, this infuriated me.
REALLY?!
Could you not see the cereal left on the island or the gum wrappers on the floor?!

I decided that I was going to leave it and see what happened.
The girls got home and I asked who had Cheerios for breakfast.
Abby did!
She said she knew she dropped a Cheerio but couldn't find it because there were other things on the island when she was pouring her cereal. 
OK then.

Shortly, Bill came home.
He started laughing when he saw the wrappers.
They were his!
I knew they were his.
He picked them up and threw them away.

I guess I will have to finish cleaning the house now that the culprits have righted their wrongs :}

I did get the upstairs bathrooms done and our bedroom cleaned.
The girls are on their own this week!
Tomorrow I go to see my doctor then head back into work and then back home to finish cleaning.
The washer and dryer have been going like crazy.
The girls have zero towels left.
I  don't know how that happened because we just did laundry on Friday....
Oh well!

So tonight brings me right here.
Curled up on the loveseat watching the Olympics and updating my blog.
Seems like a boring life to me but I love it!

Hugs all!

I have those infuriating moments too. Some are worse than others. It's ok.

Enjoy the Olympics!
I'm cleaning and de-cluttering today. No fun...
