Jean in Newcastle Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 Today's parent thread seems to have disappeared with the forum crash and reboot. How are things going for you? Here is my progress: Clean the kitchen done More and more laundry 1 load in washer/dryer; 2 loads waiting to be folded and put away Repair more yoga pants with holes Vacuum out car. done Shampoo trunk of car. done Drywall stuff. Ds says done. We have to wait for some things to dry again. Library? Find DVDs that belong in the cases. What overdue fines does Dd11 have? Ready to go to the library E-mail college friend re getting together - this Saturday? e-mail sent Zumba Season new wok. Stir- fry for dinner Working on the car did me in. I was shaking with fatigue. After napping for over an hour I'm up but am still in a lot of pain. Fortunately the things left to do are not as strenuous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faithr Posted December 27, 2012 Share Posted December 27, 2012 I'll participate. So often I don't think I've gotten anything accomplished but then when I list everything I see I did more than I thought. Let's see: cleaned kitchen thoroughly showered took my son to oral surgeon to get wisdom teeth extracted brought son home and made up bed on couch, got him ice Ran to drugstore and got his meds Came home and administered meds and otherwise babied him made dd lunch Made 12th grader work on his paper; chatted with him about it took a 5 minute nap! Read some of my book The Happiness Project played with my crazy cat who needs socializing made 14 yo do a load of laundry started to organize my 11 yo dd's room - just cleared off her very junky dresser top sent 17 yo to store with grocery list made turkey divan with leftover Christmas turkey Dh did a lot today. He took a half day from work and got not 1 but 2 cars to jiffy lube. I still need to read aloud Cricket on the Hearth; we've not read that for a couple of days and it is our Christmas read! Still need to clean kitchen after dinner. Set everyone's alarms for 8:30 a.m. (keep forgetting!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean in Newcastle Posted December 27, 2012 Author Share Posted December 27, 2012 3:30 check in: Library done Grocery store done Met neighbor at grocery store and agreed to let dd11 have a "playdate" (ie. babysit) her daughter in the morning at our house. Next up: Put on steel wok to season. And repair yoga pants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it's done! The stir-fry is done. Now to have dinner and go to my Zumba happy place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
