Finding Contentment

Today and tomorrow

After much ado and some crying from the kids (I was crying on the inside), I took the DVR back to the cable company and asked them to cut our cable off except for the local channels. That was about a week ago. They accepted the DVR but still haven't come out and turned the cable off. I got the kids all worked about their last day of cable, and here we still have it a week later! Oh well, I just hope they aren't still charging us for it.

Today we took it easy. Went to the playground for several hours and then I picked up some milk at the store. My dd-14 helped me clean up my office today, which had a lot of toys and other things that had magically appeared on the floor. I also went to the Boy Scout Shop to reserve a site for our camping trip coming up at the end of the month. I'll let you know how that goes... I haven't been camping since I was a kid, and I certainly haven't tried to take a bunch of young boys!

Tomorrow I plan to copy Crystal over at Biblical Womanhood and make banana crumb muffins and banana cake cookies with all the ripe bananas I have. I will also make one of my favorite recipes for banana bread from Hillbilly Housewife. Then at lunchtime we plan to meet my older brother and his wife and two girls at the park for a cook-out (weather permitting). Mark is working a double shift tomorrow so he won't get to go, but I'm going to try and have a good dinner waiting on him no matter how late he gets home. He always says he really appreciates that.

That banana bread recipe sounds great. I am making it tomorrow morning! Way to go getting rid, or almost, of cable. I am working hard on persuading my husband to do the same.
