Food Shmood!

Today is not a food post. The last couple of nights haven't been anything to celebrate in the dinner department. I made burgers...they were really yummy but nothing too special and I fell back into frozen tater tots to complete that meal. I didn't eat the tator tots, and my family didn't seem as pleased as usual with them. They looked like "um where is the good homemade stuff?" But they'll live.

But this post is to celebrate my new position on the PTO board as secretary. This is a big deal considering I've never been to a PTO meeting, but I always try to do the PTO events like work the book fair, and do popcorn/blow pop Friday, and help with vision and hearing screenings etc. So showing that I'm dependable, good for when there's no one else willing to step up, and being involved with the school by volunteering my time to help teach lower level students, or just helping teachers, I have now walked into a board position!

Now ask me what I do. Just ask me? Okay I don't know lol!! But to know that the previous board sat down and discussed me and chose me just makes me happy. Plus I love anything secretarial. So I know I'll be good at it.

So now my plate holds...housewife who cleans the house by herself all day everyday, substitute classified school district employee (substitute secretary, teachers aid) who will hopeful work soon, classroom volunteer, PTO secretary position, PTO event volunteer, MOTHER of one, WIFE (and sometimes mother to my husband also), keeper of the missing socks and dirty laundry (although I'm more than willing to give this one up), and chef deep in learning to make everything from scratch. Sounds easy right?! That is until you add in keeper of all the pets everyone else wanted and now don't take care of so mom does it, and omg! what is that stain and I better google it to figure out how to get it out of your dance costume mom, and "where's my keys I'm late for work" seeker, oh and then the landscaper..yep I mow, weed eat, weed by hand, and pooper scoop folks. I'm telling you not everyone is cut out for a life of glamour like me. Nope not everyone. :)
