Menu Plan Monday

For more menu plans, visit orgjunkie.com

Here we are, at another Monday. It seems like the weeks are flying by, one big blur of time. I've been away from my blog for several days because I needed to take care of home first, and home has been hectic! Soccer and cross country, elementary and middle schools, homework, class projects, cooking, cleaning, driving, meeting...Thus is my life at the beginning of the school year. I think my system is settled now. This week, I have to drive two kids to and from NINE practices and meets and games each week. My husband's in an Army school that's super-intense so he can't help till the middle of October. So, days have been full and busy and are about to get fuller and busier as my children play their chosen sports. I don't know how people with kids in more than one sport each handle it. I'm good with one per kid. Anyway, on to the weekly menu.

I'm going to have to rely on cooking ahead, slow cookers, my rotisserie, and other shortcuts to get me through mealtimes this month. I have plenty of time each morning, so breakfasts aren't a problem. It's dinner that's going to be the struggle. I'm going to do as much prep work ahead of time as I can!

    Good luck with all the running around! Both of my children run Cross Country (for 2 different schools) on top of all the other extra activities and I feel like I should just keep a pillow and blanket in the car. I'm actually going to move from the Army base to the Air Force Base, so that I'll be about 10 miles closer to the schools! Of course, I may end up not having much of my sanity left after moving while my husband is deployed :)
