Monday Menu Plan? TeeHee.

Okay, it's Tuesday. Actually it's Wednesday because its 2:30am. Oh well. Here goes.

Monday- leftover quiche. Half an english muffin with peanut butter. Chips and Salsa. 

Tuesday- Derek surprised me and finally cooked up the tilapia in the freezer! (Yes, the same tilapia I've blogged about several weeks in a row). Alfredo pasta. Questionable steamed broccoli.

Wednesday- Who knows? Working till 9. 

Thursday- Who knows? Class till 9.

Friday- maybe Papa Murphey's! 

What a plan. Mom of the year, right here. 
I'm getting a little burnt out on school. This semester of being gone 4 nights a week is really starting to catch up with me. I only have about 5 weeks left, which is nice, but then I will start immediately into a new internship. Which I don't have lined up yet, of course. I'm starting to feel super-stressed and now I'm not sleeping. Awesome. 

Anyway, I know I probably shouldn't blog when I'm sleep-deprived and cynical. It's kind of like calling your mom when you're drunk- you know you'll just regret it in the morning!:) (Not that I'd ever do that, of course!)

Derek's been so sweet this week. I know this semester has been hard on him as well, but he keeps a good attitude. I'm thankful for him.

I was up this morning at 4:30 and couldn't go back to sleep. Must have been something in the air? I think a little bit of synicism keeps us real. You do have a tough schedule, but the end is in sight. Hang in there baby!

I almost cried when I read your Momma's comment. I too was awake at 4:00 a.m. this morning and thought for a brief moment that I should get up and pray. Looked at the clock and said, 'Nope God - it's just a tad early yet.' Struggled to go back to sleep and the alarm chirrped me out of bed at 4:45.

I know your schedule has been tough this semester. Like Jeannie said - hang in there Sweetie. I'll be praying for an extra measure of strength for you in the next few weeks.

Oh and by the way, I like the way you blog about menu-planning 'after the fact'. That makes planning SO much easier!! HAHA

Kids don't generally care what they eat. They don't know if it is what people would call a great meal or a simple hurried meal. Shannon asked me for dinner last night and I told her I was getting ready to fix it. She said no mom don't worry about it can you just microwave a hot dog for me, or if you open the hot dogs I can put it in the microwave for you. Yikes.... I hope your next 5 weeks is bearable... It is nice to see other moms have a hard time with figuring out what seems simple to some...
