Why should the kids have all the fun? In no particular order, here is my (somewhat dreamy) back to school supply list:
1. Keurig Coffee Maker. My current coffee maker is slowing on the demise. It's lived a good life. But one thing it is not doing well anymore is brewing extremely hot coffee. That's one thing that I love about the Keurig....the coffee is hot! And Mom is gonna need coffee to get through our busy back-to-school schedule.
2. Food Dehydrator. As many of you know from my blog, I do a lot of "from scratch" recipes and fix healthy meals. A lot of the snack items my kids love are easy to make in a dehydrator: dried fruits, healthy chips, and more. It's a spendy device, but I truly feel I could pay myself back and then some by using it and not buying store products. It would be the perfect back-to-school supply for school lunches!
3. iPad. Yes, I don't own an iPad (yet). My kids use them a lot at school. I think it would be ideal to have not only for educational apps, but to easily keep up on my business and blogging when I am running errands, visiting my Mom, or travelling.
4. Trip To Ikea. I don't ask much. Maybe just some new office furniture, a few new lamps, and chest of drawers to organize my kids school & art supplies at home.
5. Membership To A Wine-Of-The-Month Club. Enough said.
6. Personal Trainer. I need a kick start and this would be the perfect remedy.
7. Opening Night Viewing of The New One Direction Movie. Oh wait, I'm doing that already!
8. A Personal Assistant. I seriously am Super Mom, but sometimes, even I get frazzled.
The coffee-maker, ditto! I hardly have a cup of hot coffee these days!
ReplyDeleteIt is so key!
DeleteOne Direction? Really? Ugh. Camryn, Courtney's daughter, is in love with Harry.
ReplyDeleteMy 9 year old daughter loves Harry, too. She is also a dancer and LOVES choreographing routines in our kitchen to their music. We've had this Friday on the calendar for months. Hey, I loved boy bands when I was young, so it's kinda fun seeing her enjoy it, too. ;)
DeleteHa, I just realized it was you, Ken, after I posted the reply! :)
DeleteOh Meg, I totally agree with you on Wine of the Month Club! What a joy! also, don't feel bad, I also don't own a iPad yet! Hoping to get one soon!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Ida. If I do get an iPad, I will have to hide it from the kiddos!
DeleteI caved and bought a Keurig a few weeks ago. I'm not sorry. It's so easy to use and delicious too!
ReplyDeleteI've had a personal trainer. Trust me...you don't want on. :-)
Haha, thanks Lisa. I really think I can stay more motivated by playing Jillian Michaels over and over. ;) And now I want a Keurig even more!
