Fall Sports, and my slack!

Ech!  Bleck!  I can’t have it all! I am losing it! 

 

I have not been following any of my advice!  I do have a perfect meal plan though.  I will include the weeks, and info in a separate post.  This is just something to get you started.  Most of these recipes can be found on Foodnetwork.com.  Please note, we decided we didn’t care for the Comforting Beef Casserole, that will be replaced by something (I don’t know what) in our rotation.

 

Now that we are in the full swing of fall sports, it is more important than ever to get and stay organized!

 

I have 2 in football, 1 doing cheer, and 1 playing soccer.  These are 4 different teams, because they are by grade in school.

This means that we are running running running, always!

 

Our weekly schedule is like this:

 

M: Football 6:15-8:15, Football 6:30-8:00. (my husband works Monday night, so this is all me, luckily the practices are really close to each other)

T: Cheer 6-8pm (another night my DH is working)

W: Football 6:15-8:15, Football 6:30-8:00, Soccer 6:30-7:30

R: Football 6:15-8:15, Football 6:30-8:00,

F: Cheer 6-8pm

 

Games are on Saturdays, and Sundays (my DH also works Sunday morning).  Luckily I have a few people on the teams that I can rely on to help out with transportation. 

 

But on the days there are two football games, we will be carting around a cooler, with Gatorade, water, snacks and sandwiches.  I refuse to resort to McDonalds!  My waist, and bank account will thank me.  This weekend will be chicken salad sandwiches.  I have two whole chickens at the house, which will be roasted and used for soup, and chicken salad sandwiches.

 

My children each have a sports bad, all their sports stuff has to go into that bag!  Ball, pads, mouth guard, shin guards,   shoes, uniforms, hair bows, socks, etc.  Clean or dirty.  When it needs washed, it will be all washed together, and returned directly to the bag!

 

In addition, school starts soon, and tumbling will be starting soon!  Argh!  I will make this happen!
