A Long day

Oh man, I'm so tired. I almost didn't write, but decided to take a few minutes to recap the day.
I got up at 6:30 to get the boys ready for school and on the bus. Then before getting ready for work, I actually cooked the bird. Got it all ready and in the oven to roast while I was away.
Work was really busy, I had 2 new clients along with one regular and both went really well. They both rebooked for their next appt. so that's good. Everyone is really liking the parrafin dips I've recently added to my services.
By the time I got to mom's to pick up the boys and got home..the older ones were just getting off the bus. The house smelled wonderful when we walked in from the turkey. I managed to get a few things done around the house just in time to get everyone together and on the road to go to the boys' JV individual wrestling tournament. At least this time we got there early and had no direction problems. The boys were great with Timmy winning both of his matches, one by points and one by pin earning him 1st place in his weight class. Tyler lost his first and won his second earning him a 3rd place finish. His first one was rough on him. He was not happy and Jay and I both talked to him about shaking it off and getting his head ready for the next match. We knew he had to win this next match in order to qualify for tomorrow's Varsity tournament. Well, he got pissed and he got strong. Pinned his apponent in the first 1 minute. He was stoked. Although he was disappointed that he only got 3rd place, he's anxious to finish out the season strong tomorrow.
We got home after 9pm, stopped by McDonalds for dinner since everyone was starving. I am so ready to go to bed, but just remembered that I promised a pan of bars for tomorrow. UGH!

Lighthearted moment of the day......I bought the boys a brownie at the consession stand during the tournament. After he finished his, Tony came up to me and said "mom, I want another hash brownie". :)
