SKL Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 Oh thank God it's Friday! I actually got a lot of work stuff out on Thursday, but I have some more things due today. It would be wonderful to head into the weekend without a lot of work stress. The list: Get kids up & out. Clean bathrooms, kitchen, some clutter. Work until 4pm. Kids to gymnastics; work while there. Sign kids up for 2015-2016 school year gymnastics class. Figure out the remaining camps already. Dinner out. Watch Kung Fu with kids. Kids to bed. Work until midnight.

hjffkj Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 No school today! So I think we're just going to lounge about today and I'll do whatever cleaning I happen to notice needs getting done. There are a few musts but not many. - wash cloth diapers - kids pack for Saturday overnight at my parent's house - deposit money - pump more milk for baby girl - make card for best friend's wedding Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean in Newcastle Posted May 22, 2015 Author Share Posted May 22, 2015 Dropped ds off at work and drove on into the big bad city for fasting blood work. Most phlebotomists at the lab are great. I got the one not-so-great one. She refused to listen to my tips and so she went on a digging expedition. A dry digging expedition because she didn't get one drop of blood. Then she hit red gold on another arm but that vein got tapped out (oooh, I'm on a roll here with this analogy!) so she had to go to yet another place. Finally it was done and I could leave. Got breakfast at home. Slept some at home. I am exhausted and in pain because of the exhaustion. And in a very foul mood because of the pain and exhaustion. I don't want to talk to anyone today. I want to keep my head low, do what I have to do because . . . well, because I have to . . . and get through to tonight. Instead, people are going to expect me to be nice and motherly. Bah. But really, it is not their fault that I am in pain and exhausted so I have to work hard at not taking it out on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean in Newcastle Posted May 22, 2015 Author Share Posted May 22, 2015 Laundry - folded one load of clean clothes. Waiting to put them away until I can get into all the rooms (ie. once dh gets up for work) Kitchen - dishwasher is running Food procurement - a list is being generated. IL supervision - SIL was informed of medical stuff that she needed to know about at the last minute since we were only told at the last minute. (sigh) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean in Newcastle Posted May 22, 2015 Author Share Posted May 22, 2015 Food procurement - went and bought a few groceries Child procurement - picked up my son at work Medical procurement - picked up dd's prescriptions (and paid an exorbitant amount for them since we now have huge deductibles thanks to politics that I won't mention) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hjffkj Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 Diapers are drying, kids are packing, and I've pumped as much as I can until the morning. Quick bank trip and card making will happen tonight when dh gets home. Until then it's relaxing and making dinner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean in Newcastle Posted May 22, 2015 Author Share Posted May 22, 2015 Food prep: Microwaved some deli soup for my dh's lunch. Packed him a sandwich. Had a gluten free burrito for myself. I have no idea what the kids prepared - some mac and cheese and hot dogs, I think. Not gourmet or super healthy but it works! Education - We're working on it. Dd was absolutely determined to earn frozen yogurt today so she did about triple her normal amount of Khan academy until she scored another 10% mastery. I consider that a score on the education front! Next - a quick kitchen tidy before we head out for our frozen yogurt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
