A productive day ?!?!?!?!

Today I woke up at 6:30 on my own...and I wasn't tired!! Hooray! Most likely it was because Dan let me sleep in on Saturday and Sunday. He's so good to me :) Yesterday we went grocery shopping and I borrowed my neighbor's 2 crock pots. I have 2 so that brought the total to 4. While dan cut veggies and cubed pork I set up the 4 crock pots around the kitchen (each at a different outlet) and arranged what would go in each next to it and put the recipe on top. I put the slow cooker liners in them also. Today when I woke up I threw in the ingredients into each slow cooker and put a small piece of masking tape on the counter next to each stating what time I had turned it on. I hung a grocery bag from a drawer and would throw the empty cans into it so I wouldn't have to walk back and forth to the trash can. To get all 4 going it took about 30 minutes. Now it's 3:30 and I'm just waiting for them to cool down so that I can put them in the freezer bags I labeled last night and freeze them! I doubled each recipes so that will be 8 meals cooked today. I am also going to double tonight's dinner and freeze that, too. It has been quite easy and I'm hoping it will help save me time during the week. I had also planned to cook several cups of rice to have on hand and brown 4 lbs. of turkey to freeze for chili and spaghetti sauce, but I don't know if I'm up for that today. Quintin and I are going to start the bread machine after rest time, though, so we will have bread for lunch.

We also did our math lesson, read aloud,worked on patters with the littles and made it to walmart for diapers. Quintin also did his copywork and we finished our chores before breakfast. Don't I wish we could have more days like today!
