We are home for the day since Dh's car is in the shop and he has my van.

School
Take a walk! Temps are supposed to reach high 40's today, but drop down to teens for the next couple days, so I think we will take the dog and head out to survey the neighborhood this afternoon. Lovely sunny day.

Call for an appt. ✅

Call to reschedule dentist appts?

dinner - cabbage rolls

Kitchen is clean.

Hay steamer is clean and first load just finished steaming.

Grain buckets are scrubbed.

Garbage cans on main floor are emptied.

Linus got his medicine.

I cleared snow off the deck so the birds could eat.

Dh is plowing our lane and kids are shoveling.

Late breakfast brunch. Waffles and bacon for dd, oatmeal and boiled eggs for me. Ds makes pancakes for himself.

 

I am sorry for all of you with the ice and snow and bad weather generally. So far, it is ok here, although a few snow flakes are beginning to show up on my iPhone weather.

 

Declutter today: Ds has big bags full of trash from his room, but they can't be thrown out because there might be 'something' in them, like missing chess pieces. So, maybe I'll look through the bags, which have been sitting in the hallway by his room. Oh, what a thrill, lol!

Still working on un-jet-lagging myself.

Was driving home from my folks' house between midnight and 1:15am. 

Got the pets situated, put the kids to bed.  Got some sleep.

Woke up maybe 10am. 

Paid taxes. 

Started working on putting away the Christmas / birthday gifts from extended family.

Checked emails / social media.

Figured out evening activites.

Put the kids to work on thank you notes, music practice, homework, picking up.

Did a wee bit of exercise.

Need to be working.

Cleaned one bathroom.

Did two loads laundry.

Round 2 of horse chores done.

Put in a call to the horse vet because one horse has an eye problem.

Went through Amazon Subscribe and Save list.

Ordered puppy food and dog food.

 

Still snowing here and it's very beautiful outside. It looks like a snow globe.

kitchen - took out recycling and brought back garbage bins from the curb.  (Not exactly all kitchen but most of our garbage and recycling comes from the kitchen so it's easier to do it all together.)

 

laundry - can't do any more until my servants (washer and dryer) get done with their duties.

 

paperwork - checked on neighbor's order and let her know that except for one backordered item, all has come in.

Went through the file of music that I found for the lady who asked for it to make sure that it was all there.  It is except for the first page of the first song in the file which is missing.  I still haven't found the companion file of music.  The search goes on.

kitchen - found my favorite vegetable cookbook that had slipped behind the other cookbooks!  :party:

Going to make the first recipe in the book - artichoke heart and spinach gratin. 

 

laundry - folded and put away one load of laundry.  One load in dryer.  And I'm caught up again! 

 

paperwork - graded algebra.

Finished office work for the day. Got caught up in figuring out three complicated bills and that took about an hour. I did manage to get quite a few other things done after that.

 

I told our horse vet that he did not have to come out today as it is not an emergency, but he still drove out here in the middle of a snowstorm to check my horse's eye. We're so grateful for him and the wonderful care he takes of our horses. I need to stop in to the clinic tomorrow and pick up some medicine.

 

Vacuuming and dusting and putting away laundry didn't happen, so I'll put that on tomorrow's list.

Dinner is in the oven.  Made cabbage rolls. Kids are not fans of this. Maybe other recipes are better, but I think we'll stick with stuffed peppers for ground-meat-inside-veggies sort of dish.

 

Ds finished his school work and is playing outside. Temp here dropped over 25 degrees in an hour. I am ready for spring. 

 

Dd did not finish her school work. She gets into mental drift mode sometimes and I was on the phone and cooking, so nothing got done. She had 2 hrs of school to do after lunch and in 3 hrs only did about 45 minutes of it. Sigh. 

 

To do:

deskwork

help dd with school after dinner
