I've spent the past 3 days in a non-stop cleaning marathon getting ready for my sister's suprise 30th birthday at my house last night in addition to babysitting my 17 mo old nephew 2 of those days.
This morning I went to Winco to get groceries... I now have almost 9lbs of chicken, 2 lbs of ground beef, 4 lbs of sausage cooked and sitting in pans on my kitchen counter. There's another 2lbs of ground beef waiting to be rolled into meatballs and cooked.
Then I have 10 or so cups of chopped onions in baggies, and a ton of other veggies in the fridge waiting to be chopped.
Oh yeah... and at my Dr appt last week I was 4cm dilated, 90% effaced, and dd's head was at -1. Every time I stand up I want to push (and I've been on my feet almost solid for 4 days now) but contractions are miserably non-existent. lol
WHY on earth did I wait so long to try and get my freezer stocked with food for when the baby comes??? rofl With my luck I'll go into labor tonight without any of these recipes assembled and safely in the freezer.
On the upside, once they're done I'll have about a month's worth of dinners and breakfasts for my 8 yr old and I to eat when I have no desire or energy to cook because of the baby. ;-)
Oh, the joys of being a single mom. lol Thank God I moved back to the same town my family lives in over the summer... at least I'll have some help.
