lenten clarity

ok, so i think i've decided what i am going to do for lent.  i really liked the idea of purging and cleaning out my basement so i could donate the items.  i've been meaning to do this for some time now.  i also believe i have some things that i can sell, either on craigslist, ebay or to the once upon a child store-so i've decided that half of the profit i make on the sale of those items will go to charity. (charity to be determined!)  also i am going to make every attempt to attend mass on a weekly basis.  it is a bit difficult with the two little men...sooo very hard to concentrate and really feel like you are involved in the mass; but i think in the end we'll all be better for it. :)  that which does not kill us will only make us stronger!  this spot will be helpful in tracking my (our) progress!

when i picked the boys up from the daycare school, kman immediately told me that his head hurt.  OH GREAT!  thankfully the teacher said he didn't cough much, which is what he had been doing at home.  before heading over to our churches fat tuesday pancake supper we got some tylenol in him and a little bit of cough syrup.  thankfully once he had his first chocolate chip pancake he seemed to be doing much better :)  Seriously, it wasn't enough to serve pancakes-but then they had to throw the chocolate chips in with it.  YUM, my favorite! grandma m joined us-even though it was a quick dinner we all had fun!

kman has swim tonight and hubs and i are going to see how he is after school to decide whether or not he should go-maybe if we stay home i can atleast attempt something in the basement.
