Jean in Newcastle Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Another sick day for me, I think. (We'll see in the morning.) But for all of you tacklers out there. Enjoy the day! I will clean the kitchen at some point. Anything else I'll put down as I do it. Habits: Get in steps? Hard to do when I'm sick Monitor blood sugar and blood pressure Keep living room tidy. Digestive enzymes No rice (No green smoothie or dog grooming on the weekend) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mom in High Heels Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 I have done nothing but tackle for days and days. My mom and stepdad got here on Thurs and we're going to the Point Defiance Zoo and Aquarium on Sunday, but I have things that NEED to get done too. B'fast (my mom will probably take care of that!), lunch, dinner (cook or go out?) At least 2 loads of laundry! Sweep LR, DR, kitchen and entry Empty dishwasher Give Bella a bath (she's stinky!) Wrap the rest of the presents! My mom had an entire suitcase FULL of presents for the kids. We try not to go overboard, and have done well, but she went NUTS. Han Solo is going to be totally overwhelmed by the sheer amount of stuff. We're going to have to do a serious clean out of his toys. We do that frequently anyway, but he's getting so much (a ridiculous amount, IMO), we don't have enough space for it all! Jean, I hope you're feeling better soon! Are the kids better?
