Jean, I hope you're feeling up to all that.

 

James Bond has a 4 day weekend, which means he'll be in the way for school tomorrow.  Blah.  Although, I told him I want to sleep in for Valentine's Day, so YAY!

 

To do:  

 

B'fast, lunch, dinner (pasta, maybe?)

 

School

-History

-Math

-Science

-Reading

 

Fold the mountain of laundry I've done this week

 

Iron (just kill me!)

 

Give Bella a bath

 

Make a batch of "hot pockets"

 

Relax

 

Eat candy

 

Think about Sherlock

 

Watch some of the lectures for my class

 

Think about my next assignment, due Mon, which has me completely stumped

 

Eat more candy to combat the fact that I'm stumped on the assignment

Not a whole lot for me :)

- dishes

- one load of laundry- in the dryer

- tidy house- done

- college prep stuff

- shower while dd2 sleeps- done

- dd1's school valentine's day party at 1:30 (dh might attend with if he gets out of work early enough) bring dd1 where ever with me after school- well dh won't be out in time so dd1 will come home with me after school to wait for dh to get home. He has had to work late every day (like until 9 pm) this week and he has to leave Wednesday for Chicago and be gone for 5 days. Dd1 really misses her play time with daddy and I miss talking to him (the long conversations). He hopes to be out at 3 today and not have to work this weekend

- pay bills, shopping and out to eat with dh and the girls

- bedtime routine :)

Funky day ahead:

 

--dd's FLL team is giving their final presentation to an industry partner group at 10. We have to leave early because some roads are still bad.

--Math Olympiad 1:30-3. We have to leave before 1 to open the rooms.

--dd FLL team meeting 4-6:30 (??). I have to find her a ride home.

--dh and I have a dinner and concert beginning at 5pm. We'll be home after 9:30. I still don't know what I'll wear----one outfit works with heels and one with my black boots. I think I'll probably have to go with the boots outfit.

 

Dd wants to bake something to take to the FLL competition tomorrow for sharing. She might be able to squeeze that in between the presentation and Math Olympiad. I'm not wild about her baking when we're not home.

 

She needs to do some English today as well.

 

I should probably check to see if I need to do laundry.

Good morning everyone!  Hope you are feeling better Jean!

 

Happy Valentines Day, a day that is usually a non-thing for us but dh brought home cards and chocolate for the girls and I last night. 

 

Don't have to think about supper, we have a young friend who's family is all elsewhere and she always comes to make pink pancakes for supper on Valentines Day and we watch a movie. (she mixes red M&M's in the batter)

 

Already tended to all the feathered, finned and furred and got the woodstove going.

Did the dishes, tried to get the cat to eat something and he wouldn't so I syringed the high calorie Nutrical into his mouth and now he is mad at me.

 

School with youngest when she gets up.

 

1st pills for eldest at 9 then I will bring her something to eat so she can take the big guns at 9:30.  She is on crutches these days, her legs have gotten unreliable.  Tried to call the Lyme guy in NY yesterday but they were closed due to the weather, will try again today.  Looks like she will not be finishing her senior year any time soon.  But she will get her driver's license in May, so that's something.

 

I have laundry going and have to make beds up with fresh sheets at some point.

 

Looks like vacuuming is on todays list as well.

Well I didn't make it into work for my am shift nor for admin work though I may go in earlier today for my afternoon shift to get that done.  My child support didn't arrive to my inbox in time to get gas to get to work.  It is there now, so this afternoon won't be a problem.  Kids are all still asleep so I have spent the last 2 hours online enjoying the quiet.  Laundry is going, and a portion of what I wanted to get done at the front entrance tomorrow is already done (it has become a catch all this week, with bags for goodwill, bags of bottle to return, all the rubber boots emptied from the deacons bench now that the mitts etc are in it, camp gear for the teens etc, it was a distaster).  So all in all starting out to be a decent day.  Just about to make some breakfast and a cup of coffee before starting some of my coursera work while I have some quiet to think.

Dishes are done, gotta get dd2 and I dressed to go to dd1's school party. College prep pushed aside again, oh well might get to between the girls and I getting home and dh getting home. Oh I and I have to fold and put away laundry yet too.

Happy Valentine's Day!

 

 

Human care including breakfast done

 

Pet care done

 

Did glucose testing with ds for health class (we're talking about diabetes etc. since dh's entire family is diabetic and I'm pre-diabetic).  His fasting came up at the very highest end of normal.  We're going to test all day.  If there is a problem, we'll be going in to the doctor.

 

Assigned history reading to dd amid many groans.  

 

Dh and I think that my latest antibiotic has stopped working.  Fortunately I have an ENT appointment for Monday.

I was so tired (of all the bickering and annoying behaviour by the kids) that after school was done, I didn't have the brainpower to study Greek or Latin :glare: . And I didn't want to clean the bathroom. So I didn't.

 

I did read a book! And dh ordered pizza (which is very rare for us!) :001_wub: , so the day ended well :D.

 

I'm going to put the kids to bed now and then read some more. See you all tomorrow!

Cleaned the kitchen.  I don't know why I bothered, since dd is now baking. . .    She's making heart shaped cornbread muffins for today's lunch.  She saw the idea on Pinterest.  http://www.pinterest.com/pin/325948091752882181/

 

I was dancing in the kitchen (don't tell Liz in CA, she thinks I'm resting) while the kids were yelling "My eyes, my eyes!"   :glare:

I took my little one to my parent's house.  I ran errands in town--bank, walmart, grocery.  Dh took #1 to work the library this afternoon so I've had a pretty quiet afternoon.

Put a roast in the crock pot for supper

House is still looking good :)

Ready for the weekend!

Happy valentine's Day! Our house is part of some big comcast outage, so we've not had phone & internet since the ice storm. I'm at mcdonald's on my nook. I hope everyone is well & happy. We had power outages off & on but didn't lose any food. I think I'm on the tailend of this cold.

 

My dad called to tell me happy v-day. It used to be my mom who called. Two things in one week of missing her calling has been hard.

 

Hopefully we'll have internet soon!

Hi everyone! I'm checking in at the end of the day. Had a bit of school this morning and then it was off to our co-op's annual Valentine's Day party at the bowling alley. It was fun. I had a nice time visiting with the other moms. DH and I don't "do" Valentine's Day. I feel like it's such a contrived holiday, an DH is always relieved when I let him off the hook for these things. He hates holidays. Or I should say, he hates the pressure of having to come up with something on holidays. Right now, I'm the only one up. Just sitting on my comfy chair, watching the Olympics.

 

Hope you all have a restful sleep!
