I've made pumpkin overnight oats before and they were pretty good Peanut Butter Banana Chocolate: Add 1 tablespoon cocoa powder, 1 tablespoon peanut butter, and 1 teaspoon honey to base. But I used almond butter instead ETA the base is: 1/2 cup old fashioned oats 1 tablespoon ground flax (no flax, used chia seeds instead) 3/4 cup milk (I typically drink almond milk, but I ran out, so I used 2%)

I got myself out of bed to go to an early spin class this morning. Trying to get back in the habit! It was hard to get up, but it definitely felt good.

I haven't had overnight oats in awhile but I do love them. I have a recipe that makes it taste like a thin mint. I highly recommend checking out the oatmeal artist. She's got lots of recipes

I've missed you all!!! Still no power. I am living out of a suitcase. I drop kids off at dc, head home to check for power. Open house up to air out, do what I can. And wait for power. The pool guy cancelled on me so there's still like a small tree in my pool. My neighborhood is still on the news because it's flooded. People had to be rescued via highwater trucks. When it gets to be about 3 I repack the suitcase with new clothes and supplies, pick kids up and head across town to my sisters house. Where there are too many people, my kids are being terrors and I just want to be home. Ugh. I am at work today. Oh and cell service sucks because we have many towers without power.

Hey all, I finally have a little break from work to really pop in to say hi! I finished my work for today, yesterday due to a company golf outing. I'm excited to have a little down time today. Hope all is well with everyone. DD started 1st grade a few weeks ago. She seems to like it. I really want to get together with some other families in the area so she can make friends. DS is a typical 2 yo. Everything is "No!". He's only 9% for height, but 54% for weight. He's my little potato. He loves his dada. I'm second rate these days. Living situation is still thumbs down. I'm trying not to be at the IL's after work (I get out at 3:00pm) so I'll go shopping, have a beer, cruise second hand/antique shops. Hopefully another 10 days. Our builder is pissing me off, but I need to go with the flow. I'm sure if we weren't at the IL's for this long, it would have been different.
OH! And I'm going to New Orleans for work in October! I'm super excited.

and i had to empty out to fridges/freezers yesterday due to rancid food. so much money thrown away. but i hear some policies have a $500 food thing in there that's not part of the deductible. I will be looking into this. Not only do I need to replace groceries but all my staples too that had to be tossed.

H and I started the day with a non-fight about dishes in the dishwasher.
I placed an empty mug into the sink as I was trying to run out the door. He informed me that the dishwasher was empty and to place it in there. I told him that turnabout is fair play. He was displeased.
This is not the first time this has happened, dude is about to see how many dishes he leaves in a freshly cleaned kitchen.
Petty, party of me.

We finally called in a professional to deal with our asbestos problem... Note- we received an all clear and were told everything was sterile... so it was finally time to play.

The tents are down, the ceiling is sealed off... I was able to get a lot done yesterday. I definitely need to take it a little easier today, but having the dining room back gives me so much open space. I'm setting up half of it as a play area for Worm and the other 1/2 is a packing area. It's the largest room in the house. So not having it for close to 4 weeks and everything in it being moved to rest of the house was too much to handle.

RunsforWineandCarbs- I hope you get your power back soon. I hope you guys can at least stay as cool and dry as possible. Omg car drives in an air conditioned vehicle? Yay for booze at least... My niece in St. Petersburg is still without, but they didn't have any flooding or damage.

only minor damage that is fixable. so we are extremely lucky. right now the hassle is no power, kids off their routine, and living out of a suitcase. in the grand scheme of things we are good - compared to all those who have lost so much more. I really shouldn't be complaining.
