On my Wednesday

Going to take it a bit easy today. The kids will be at my mom's for part of the day, I'll attempt to go to the library, and I need to get something for dinner at the grocery. It's been a challenge to make do with the oven being on the blink. Last night, two of the kids used some blueberries that were given to us (in the Easter basket I already told you about) and made fried pies in one of our iron skillets. Used what we had in terms of other ingredients and were they good. Delish. Reminded me of the peach fried pies my grandmother use to make. Will definitely nudge them to make these again. :) A bit labor-intensive, but not so much as homemade donuts.

Just want time to have quiet today. Will get some lunch to have by myself. Note the words....by myself. Looking forward to some alone time, a good book and a nap. Another night of 5-1/2 hours sleep. I feel surprisingly chipper, but by 1pm or so, that'll change. Must take care of myself, you know. Off to do stuff now.
