mom31257 Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Good morning, everyone! I'm nursing a sore throat after a serious choking episode last night. I was swallowing a vitamin c, and it didn't go down all the way. I was going to try and cough it back out and ended up making it worse. I really thought I was going to choke. Dh tried to do the heimlich, but I tried bending so my head was all the way down to the floor and that moved it into my mouth. It was so scary. On to today, though. Done: breakfast and lunch for dh coffee To Do: computer time and more coffee breakfast for the rest of us school with ds: Awana, history, science, grammar, math school with dd: Bible, Chemistry, Alg 2, Lit, History lunch laundry tidy house go to tea at friend's house take ds to first swim team meeting/practice go to homeschool group's mom meeting (last of the year) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhschool Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Go through all the clothes and see what doesn't fit any more. See if I can alter what doesn't fit. Get rid of what I can't alter. Try to get the smell out of the carpet in the bedroom. Vacuum bedroom. Put clean covers on furniture instead of leaving them rolled up in a ball. Put in a load of laundry. Clean the sink surfaces. Put clean bags in garbage cans. Dust family room. Empty closets in child's bedroom. Clean them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelly1730 Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Amy, so glad that you are okay, that must have been scary! We have 12 more days of school so I'm hoping to add in several field trips and have two 6 day school weeks and be done by Memorial Day, we'll see how that goes. Check cleaning schedule (I've taken off the last three days so might have to double up on some things) laundry school, naturally meals boys have practice for piano recital at teacher's home, dh and I will probably hit Home Depot (again!) Groceries Library That's enough for one day! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lizzie in Ma Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Good morning everyone! Ouch Amy! Hope that settles down for you. It is such a beautiful day outside today! Thankful another stupid Hallmark day is over. I lower my expectations constantly and they still manage to lower the bar. I don't want to resent being Mom, I love being Mom, even when it's thankless. So today, I am happy again, no expectations makes it so much nicer. Need to refill prescriptions and pill boxes and call the Lyme Dr.'s office. Our other Dr. is closed on Mondays so I have a list for her tomorrow. Waiting for the call to tell us what time surgery will be on Thursday. It is my bff's birthday and we are going to see the new Spiderman together this afternoon. So I need to throw something in the crockpot for dinner. B12 shot morning chores are done already School with youngest some more decluttering and help eldest clean her room so it is nicer to be in, plus, outlaws coming this weekend and they usually stay in her room.

TammyinTN Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Good Morning... Amy...that's scary! I hope your throat feels better today. Lizzie--I know what you mean. I sent my mother flowers and they were delivered Friday...still not a word from her. I'm so done with my family and all the drama they have created. Today: exercise-I still have a rotten cold, but I feel so much anger it will probably do me good to exercise really hard a nap--because family drama exhaust me. tidy house--vacuum first floor cook dinner --fried rice and spring rolls read go to be early Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please, for the love of Pete, get the arrangement done so your actors can actually learn their parts! Were we discussing slow moving teens? When ds is crunched for time he goes into slow motion mode.

DawnM Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Not sure I will be home long enough to tackle much. We have doctor's appointments and errands. But my goal for the week is to: clean out and arrange middle son's bedroom. It is long overdue. His room currently has all my old clothing in it and my dresser and the sewing machine. He moved in about 10 months ago now and I never got the *stuff* out of it. I would like to have him have his own space and the storage and sewing stuff out. It is a huge undertaking though and I just haven't done it yet. Dawn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MysteryJen Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Sorry about your mom, Tammy. Amy, how scary! I am glad you are okay. It snowed all day yesterday and all night. We got over 5 inches. Today is a regular day. School has started for most everyone, though I think ds2 is waking slowly. Teenage boys.... dd2 will be confirmed tonight, So, she has to miss practice, and the rest of us will rush to meet her and dh. The kids cleaned the downstairs yesterday, so that is done for today. I have some laundry and my study to pick up, maybe run to the bank if I have time. I have a few annoying things still to do: course descriptions, pay some bills, laundry. Have a great day!

Baseball mom Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Amy -- hope your throat feels better today. That is scary jhschool -- don't know what smell in the carpet you have but have you sprinkled baking soda and let it sit for several hours then vacuum. Sometimes that will help with carpet smells I love this thread. Not only the encouragement but also reading other lists reminds me of things I need to do but forgot. laundry - the never ending pile pick up all over - looks like the house exploded meal planning vacuum ball for ds supper go through clothes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mom31257 Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Thanks for the well wishes! My throat is feeling better. Yes, it was very scary! Dd got good news from her auditions last week. The youth production this summer is Alice in Wonderland, and she got the roles of the Cheshire Cat and the White Queen. I took the time to watch the OUAT finale...Wow!!! I need to go get the load of laundry out of the dryer and start some towels washing. Praying for Rosie and hoping she is okay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustEm Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Still feeling like crap and my oldest is now making it worse because he's so restless that everything he does is bothering someone else!! To top it off my youngest has whatever I have he's been grumpy all day and I've already changed 5 loopy diapers. Days like these are days I hate using cloth diaper. Dh should be home in an hour and then I'll be off the hook for the night. Take out for dinner because I don't want to touch food and possibly contaminate it and I forgot to pull meat out of the freezer for dh to make.

mom31257 Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 I didn't get to go to my friend's house because she had to cancel tea. They got their travel approval and have a lot to do before they go to China to get their new son! They are adopting a 7 year old boy. Everything else done...I think.
