A cake I made

wednesday evening

When I told Dh about ds2 spraying me, he laughed. I don't him not to laugh at ds2though. Colby needed to know that it was not ok to go spray the water instead of going upstairs to bed. Anyway, he took a good nap and is now trying to go to sleep again. I am hoping he sleeps in, so I don't mind if he is up later.
I made all of the cookies I was planning too. We made double recipes of all of them. I made them big, so by the time we gave them to all of the people we were going to, we have about a quarter of them left. I am going to freeze them. I was looking for a lemon cookie that has the texture of a snickerdoodle. The ones I made are good, but they are flat and gooey. Good, but not the texture I wanted. They are tangy and lemony, so that is good.
I watched DWS. It was good. I liked the dance off. It was easy to see who was the best. It seems like Kristy will probably win. I don't know how they weigh the judges and the phone votes, but she has like 7 points more than the others. I wonder if they picked her to be in the show this year so that a woman would win. I don't think that the men are as good as in the other seasons. Helio was really good last year and so was Leala Ali. Both of them got 30 several times last year. Tomorrow is the end and then AI is on.
I am so tired. I usually am not so tired this early, but I am beat. I hope the boys fall asleep fast so I can also.
Prev: I am all wet!!!

Wednesday

I have not been coping my blogs over here because I did not know that C was here very much. Now I know that she is and so I will be much better about it. I just hope that I can inspire her to put a few words down once in a while.

ds2 was supposed to go inside and go to his room. Instead he walked over to the sprinkler and turned it on. When I walked over to him, he sprayed me. I am dripping wet. I had to turn the hose off to stop him. I was deciding how to react. Part of me thought it was funny, but I really got wet, and I hate to just sit and be wet, unless we are swimming. Anyway, he was mean about it. He was getting back at me because he did not want to take a nap. So, instead of laughing, I started to cry. That made him cry, but at least he is laying down to go to sleep. I on the other hand, am still wet and dripping and my hair is tangly. Uggh!!!
I went to the store to get a few things to make some cookies. I need to make some for thank you gifts. I thought cookies sounded like fun. I have plans to make Chocolate chip, peanut butter, snickerdoodles, lemon, and oatmeal raisin. I don't know how many we will end up making. I ade $40 for the cake I made. The reason I can not charge the same for each cake is that they are not all the same amount of work or size. This was only one cake and the last was 3. I was happy with $40. Dh said I should have gotten more, but I thought it was fair compaired to the other.
I am tired. I am not working tomorrow, at least right now. So I am going to try to sleep in.
The kids are home, so hopefully Colby will go to sleep in a minute so I can get started on the cookies.
