I need help again! Next week, for our Activity Day's activity, we are talking about the sacrament. Why it was started and the importance behind it. Then, we will be making bread. I will bring it home and bake it and deliver it to the Bishop. That bread will then be used for the bread of the Sacrament the following week.
In the handbook - it states that the Sacrament bread needs to be white and without crust. I don't have a recipe for white bread. So, if you have a recipe that you like, would you please e-mail me, Facebook me or post the recipe as a comment. I would really appreciate it!
Thanks in advance!!

Reaching out
This is very hard for me to do. I am not one who normally asks for help. I have had to do it quite a bit more than I would like to admit because of health issues, whether mine or my kids. I can't do it all. I have struggled the last 6 months in Alaska to find a balance in my life. It's not happening. I hate to admit it, but I am not superwoman! {you heard it here first}
So, I am asking for your help. Do you have any ideas on how to balance school, laundry, dinner, dishes, order, bathrooms, paying bills, showering, exercising, sleeping, grocery shopping and bathing the kids? That doesn't include reading lessons for church, fhe, family scripture time, personal scripture time, scrapbooking, Biggest Loser {my one guilty pleasure - I fold laundry the whole time.}, reading and homework with the kids and some good old fashion me time. Where did the days of Bon-bons and soap operas go? Seriously. I need to add somewhere in there potty training Nate, cleaning the car, cleaning the garage, putting away the 13 bags food storage I bought last week, getting everything ready for the next Activity Day's and getting everything ready for Aaron to start nights. Yep, no Valentine's Day for me yet again. This will make 6 years of Aaron working the night shift on that beloved holiday.
Back to the issue- I don't see much I can cut. However, I can't manage it all. I spend my days putting out fires because everything is in disarray. My bedroom is trashed, I haven't packed my kids lunch at all this week and I don't even want to think about allergy shots on Thursday. So, can you please help me? I am as close to insane as I have ever been. I struggle falling asleep at night trying to figure out which fire I forgot to put out and my order of fires for the next day. So, I am officially saying, "my name is Sassy and I need help. Can you help me?"

Please Help!
This is for those of you with older kids (or remember your discipline from your childhood.) We need some help. The kids have started being dishonest and we don't know what to think or do. Here are yesterdays 2 events:
#1 - One child needs to have his homework signed off every day with the amount of time it took to complete listed. We have done this since the beginning of the school year. This child signed my initials and put the time that we usually put and then put it away in the backpack. (Ilene, are you dieing of laughter yet? Aaron did this for a bout 4 months in 3rd grade. Aaron had a really hard time keeping a straight face while telling him it's bad.)
#2 - Both boys aren't allowed anything but water and meals for the month of May (a previous punishment). One of them saw a Diet Coke that was left on the floor (it was 3/4 full). He picked up the Diet Coke and drank it then went to throw it away. Bad mistake! I was in the kitchen. He says, "Mom, this is empty, I am throwing it away." I asked if he drank it several times and he said no. The final time, I looked in the living room and saw that the other boys were upstairs and said, "I am going to ask one last time, did you drink it?" Then, he lowered his head and in just a whisper said yes. ARG!! He totally knew it was wrong, but did it anyway.
Any suggestions??
