Jean in Newcastle Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 Good morning everyone! I'm feeling a bit better but am not sure when the fatigue will set in. So today I will set ambitious plans but will just do what I can. Clean kitchen Laundry - tons of it Figure out finances - med. bills (It's amazing how it only takes less than a second to type that but so much longer to actually do. . . ) School specials: Ds15 - figure out where he is in our school schedule since he was sick and everything got thrown up in the air And his Latin tutor is being induced today which changes our Latin schedule big time! Dd11 - "The Norman Conquest" Language Arts Tidy "Stuff" and "Places" - too much to actually itemize at this point. Clean the toilet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janie Grace Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 I'm tacking Monday... trying to get on top of my laundry mountain, vacuum my ceilings (the cobwebs are out of control) and make a plan for my mornings and Saturdays. I have been way too seat-of-pants and if we are ever going to survive this busy spring (baseball season!), I need to get on top of home management! Did light school this morning so I could focus on house stuff. I'm at that point where I'm not being productive as a teacher because my environment/other life stuff is too chaotic.

xixstar Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 Me! I've had a couple weeks of just not feeling well or being really blah and little has gotten done. I'm happy to feel energized and motivated today. Todays plan: clean and declutter the kitchen. So far have scrubbed half the floor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonFaerie Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 Monday and I are not on speaking terms. Never have been; never will be. But, DS is doing school and I got some work done on my final project for my school, so I guess that's something. And the laundry is going. There. I'm done now. Call me when Monday is over. :glare: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Julie Smith Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 Hubby worked from home all weekend. It looks like he will be working late, or working from home tonight. Since his office is also our kitchen and school room, I'm making sure we are all done with the room and it's clean before he gets home. I'm looking forward to getting out of the house. Youngest has been slightly sick (Sore throat and his voice sounding off). So we haven't gone anywhere for a few days. Perhaps we will go out tomorrow. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean in Newcastle Posted March 4, 2013 Author Share Posted March 4, 2013 Cleaned the kitchen. Got Grandpa (FIL) sorted out. Then he came back. So we got him sorted out again. Then he came back. Got him sorted out yet again. So far he hasn't come back needing help again. Ds says that if he does, he's dropping school for the rest of the day and will go with him.

PrairieSong Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 Morning was taken up by going to a funeral. This afternoon I plan to: Wash and put away three laundry loads. Clean the basement. Make headway on listing books to sell. Mail birthday card. Make dinner. Cleaning the basement will take a long time since we are living down here while kitchen, liv room, and dining room are being remodeled. We cook and eat in our basement family room and watch tv and do school, so it gets messy very quickly. I don't have to go anywhere else today except a run to mail the bd card which will take five minutes, so I will see if I can get anything else done.

Jean in Newcastle Posted March 4, 2013 Author Share Posted March 4, 2013 Managed to get through school with dd. We are focusing on the basics in depth right now so it isn't quite school light but it isn't everything either as I've let the extras like the arts fall to the wayside for the moment. I'm going to work on laundry now. Adrenal meds are wonderful. :001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
