So far:

Breakfast made

Laundry started--1 load folded and put away and one still going
Floors Mopped
Trip to drop off donations
Trip to dump

Yesterday I got the kitchen cabinet cleaned out and we took all of the Christmas decorations down.  I think I vacuumed 4 times yesterday.  No more vacuuming lol ;)

Maybes for today:
Trip to Hobby Lobby to look for some winter decorations.  Our house looks empty!
Straighten up the pantry.  It's not bad but it wouldn't hurt to give it a little attention

Good Morning! It's Monday! I am so glad Christmas is over! That's all I can say!

 

** laundry

** decluttering

 

That's on the docket for today! I don't want to go anywhere, I don't want to see anyone! We are all hacking and coughing. We haven't had rain in over a month and the air quality is horrible. My poor baby has such awful post-nasal drip she vomits at night. I line all my kids up and give them their dose of Zyrtec every morning and I've been taking shots of Benadryl on top of that and two other nose sprays I'm taking. We are miserable around here.

My little kids come home at some point today, late morning/early afternoon I believe  which means more stuff will be coming into the house because I did not bring all their presents home with me when I came home on boxing day.

 

Otherwise my list today is to continue my rotations through the rooms.  I made good progress yesterday though my work schedule prevented me from finishing anything so hopefully today will mean those rooms can be done

 

Kitchen

livingroom

laundry

presents

entrance

backroom

alcove

bathroom

 

As well I have to go into work from 8-9pm

talk to the teens

hang out with my littles (man I miss them)

read

start lesson plans for the new year

try to finish sewing dd6s badges on her sash

She chose a chocolate cake roll (jelly roll/sponge cake) filled with freshly whipped cream for her cake.

 

I exercised---ouch.

 

I did get through a big job not on my list-----I went through a decade (!) of recipes pulled from Cooking Light magazine and only kept what we would actually try. I also went through the binder of recipes we've tried and eliminated the ones we didn't absolutely love. I will add the not-yet-tried recipes to the back of the binder and try one new recipe each week :)

Krissi - do you have an air cleaner in the house? I would have it running around the clock with your issues. Also - vitamins A & D and Quercetin.

No, although a lot of times dh runs just the fan on the AC and that pulls all the air through the filter. We have an expensive air filter. I should do that.
