joannqn Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 My list comes mostly from the Motivated Moms app (which I'm finding to be too much work to get done in a day): Make bed Clean master bathroom shower Make breakfast Wash DD3's bedding Wash DS6's bedding Clip children's nails Empty trash Exercise Feed pets Scoop litter box Make lunch Wash breakfast & lunch dishes Clean main shower/tub Clean hair brushes Wipe out bathroom sinks Dust master bedroom Vacuum master bedroom Vacuum girls' bedroom Vacuum boys' bedroom Clean out upper kitchen cabinets Plan/cook dinner Wash dinner dishes Wipe down kitchen sink and counters Have kids do state history assignment Do math with DS11 Go to library to pick up holds Tutor Complete and mail application for DS11's camp (a STEM day camp on base that's free!) Complete and mail health form for DD13's camp We also have someone coming over to drop off a bike for Dh or I. They might stay and play for a while. Take DS to boy scouts. There's no way I'm going to get this whole list done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean in Newcastle Posted June 5, 2013 Author Share Posted June 5, 2013 After looking at your list, JoAnn, I've decided that I'm just not that motivated. Of course my house might be declared a disaster zone by some here! It's ok - I'm building our collective immunity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joannqn Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 Fortunately, I have two older kids who can do some of it. DD13 is picking up and vacuuming her room and cleaning the main bathroom shower/tub. DS11 is picking up and vacuuming his room, scooping litter boxes, and taking out the trash and recycling. I'm also not expecting to finish it all, so anything is a bonus. I just need something to keep me moving forward, so I'm trying MM again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jean in Newcastle Posted June 5, 2013 Author Share Posted June 5, 2013 I forgot that dd has a volunteer party tonight. I'm putting this down here so that I will not forget. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean in Newcastle Posted June 5, 2013 Author Share Posted June 5, 2013 Arrrrgh! We woke up late because we stayed up to watch America's Got Talent. Ds15 is having major problems with his allergies because it is sunny and warm and I believe I saw his brain left somewhere down the road. . . To make myself feel a bit better I'm going to write down what has been done. Got up. (I'm counting everything I can here!) Personal hygiene and dressing. Made bed. Made and ate breakfast and cleaned up afterward. Dh (bless him! Truly, not in a "bless his heart" way.) cleaned the kitchen. Made it to the library. Ds did half of two assignments. Don't ask me why he only did half and then moved to another one where he did half. It's been that sort of a day. Dd did two subjects. I managed all my e-mails, and things of that sort. I had personal prayer time. I remeasured ds and recorded it on his passport form. I filled in one more area of missing information. We ran to the grocery store where everyone stopped ds to tell him how tall he's gotten and how manly. I got a few things and then came home. Made and ate lunch. Next up: get together all the passport stuff so we don't forget anything. Do library stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joannqn Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 Lunch update. New bike will be mine. It'll fit either DD13 or me, but she doesn't like the handlebars, so I get it. Riding a bike again after 20+ years is terrifying. Both sets of bedding are in progress. Math with DS11 is in progress; we had to take a break when the friend with the bike showed up. I washed the breakfast dishes already, so the wash breakfast and lunch dishes are also in progress. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jean in Newcastle Posted June 5, 2013 Author Share Posted June 5, 2013 Oooh. Cool. A new bike. I got a new bike a few years ago. Then dh forgot to put the cap on tight on a can of muriatic acid and my new bike rusted. Boo hoo. I still have it but it doesn't look nice and pretty like it used to.

Jean in Newcastle Posted June 5, 2013 Author Share Posted June 5, 2013 4 pm and I am toast. I still have lots to do on my list but did I mention that I am toast? Taking dd to the volunteer party, going to Zumba and assisting and the Latin tutor are all non-negotiable and are coming up in a couple of hours. So I am going to flake out now and work on a jig-saw puzzle. Butter me up and call me toast! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joannqn Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 Well, my "new bike" isn't new...just new to me...it's a purple 21 speed only I can't figure out how to get to 7 of them. Bedding is done; I just have to put them back on the beds. Lunch dishes are done. Math with DS is done. Tutoring is done. Cleaning the 3 trout DD and her friend brought home from fishing and giving them to the neighbor (we don't like trout) is done. Priority for the next hour and a half is bedding and dinner. After that, I have to take DS to boy scouts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
