RoughCollie Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 it is -12 out there, wind chill temp today will be -35, so the schools are closed. That means I will have an additional 4-6 college students at my house all day. I don't mind. When they leave, it suddenly gets very quiet, like going from 60 to 0 in an instant. Aidan is in hog heaven because he is a party animal. Today, I am going to: Clean kitchen Cook and bake Clean living room Clean dining room Groom Aidan Laundry Tidy bathroom Bank/Quicken/accounting Pay bills Sign up for health insurance Make dinner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They said they'll let them go when it starts getting bad, but he has a lot farther to drive than the rest of them. We will do school until it starts snowing or he gets home...after that, it is enjoy the weather and play board games! To Do: Breakfast for dh coffee and computer time breakfast for the rest school watch for snow school watch for dh school ....Have Fun!

KrissiK Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Good Morning everyone! Well, no cold for us. It's supposed to hit 70 again. But, there is a chance of rain on Thursday. We are all praying hard. I have never seen the landscape so dry in my entire life. It is actually scary! On the docket for the day..... ** school for the kids ** housework for me ** work on the budget. January has been an ugly month. Gotta figure out if prices really are going up that much (our energy bills sure are) or if we just had some unusual spending this month. Usually we are pretty good about living within budget. ** dd has tumbling this afternoon ** DS has a basketball game this evening Have a great day, gals!

swellmomma Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 finished morning shifts at both jobs and got ds15 dropped off. Came home and realized dd14 had latin class and she was 30 minutes late for it so hollered at her to get up, she is now in her class. I am ready to lie down again but I think the others are going to be getting up shortly so I probably won't get a chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KrissiK Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Well, school's done. Had a pretty lousy day with difficult children. Lots of disrespect and rudeness. Dd7 threw 2 enormous tantrums. I can't figure out why she's doing this at her age. Anyhow, she's at tumbling class right now. Dinner's smelling good in the crock pot.

Jean in Newcastle Posted January 29, 2014 Author Share Posted January 29, 2014 Krissi, I hate to tell you this, but dd12 threw an enormous tantrum today at her much older age. . . RC has already talked me down once today . . . . She's more pleasant at the moment but is still driving me absolutely crazy. (Dd, I mean, not RC, though I'm sure that RC is pleasant at the moment. . . ) Tidied and cleaned kitchen, dining room and living room with dd12's help. (Yes, that is a positive.) Folded and put away two loads of laundry with ds16's help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shukriyya Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 We're back from the day's various classes and lessons. Coffee and chocolate have been appropriately consumed. But the prospect of dinner is staring me in the face. I'd like a simple boiled egg and some arugula but that won't fly around here. Sigh. Off to cook something...

swellmomma Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Finished afternoon shift at daycare. Kids finished swimming lessons, ds10 passed, dd6 did not. Teens are currently at cadets. Headed to the diner to do my night time clean up before I go to get the teens. littles did a bunch of Lang arts and math today. Teens will watch another lecture from TC superstar student. Of all the TC lectures we are currently working through this is their favorite set by far. I didn't have to cook as we had left over chili tonight, I did get the laundry started and put gas in the tank. Garbage can will be wheeled out on our way out the door, and then when we get home from cadets while the teens eat and watch their lecture I will get some cleaning done, and finish up with reading a few pages in bed.

KrissiK Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Jean, thanks the the encouragement. It is nice to know tantrums are not only for 3 year olds. Dd has been much better this afternoon, and she fell asleep in the car on our way to the basketball game. Perhaps sleep is becoming an issue.
