Chocolate Chip Cookies

Well, I am officially off the hook. My daughter has been complaining for days that I am too busy for her, so we finally took the time to bake some cookies together. Courtney made the dough and I baked it. In order to eat a cookie, she had to say what a wonderful mom I am. I even made her pancakes this morning, so I think I have earned a few days of mercy.

I am so excited to report that I got a B on my first exam of the quarter. I thought I would fail the Pharmacology exam miserably because I didn't study. Apparently 20 minutes of cramming and some good guessing, I got a 92%. Wow! I am still waiting on my Med Surg grade. My luck would be that I failed that one instead. That will teach me for studying for hours instead of waiting until the last minute to cram. :) I have midterms next week, so now I must prepare for a busy week of reading, stuying, more reading and more studying. I am a little nervous.

This past weekend was amazing. I have finally got a few nights of decent sleep. Saturday was spent cleaning my house and running a few more errands. I got a lot accomplished.

Super Bowl Sunday was a good day. I woke up with a headache, so I skipped church to prepare for an action packed day. My GS troop went Super Bowling. The girls had a great time and giggled a lot. Courtney always loves getting out with her friends. Aidan bowled a few frames, but he was more into the pinball machine. After we got home, I spent about an hour with the neighbor, Collin, trying to chisel through the layers of ice on the driveway. With calluses on my hands, I gave up and headed off to the grocery store. I thought I would avoid the crowds by heading out during the game, but what I really avoided was getting food before everyone else. The shelves were so bare. The soda was almost gone and the snacks were few and far between. I am thankful that we mostly needed fruits and vegetables.

I am going to take a few minutes of much needed down time and watch a little t.v. Heroes is back on. Yea!!!! I love Heroes!
