Tsuga Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Ok, I usually don't do these but Saturday is no problem. I'm shopping for my honey's birthday and we're going to splurge and buy STEAK and I'm baking a cake. Maybe I will decide to take up T25 again... I have fallen off the wagon. :P Other than that I want to play some music with the kids. Fun times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MysteryJen Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Good morning! The snow started overnight and it is beautiful this morning. Dh and I are going to breakfast while the kids are at practice. Then, nothing. I plan to putter around for the rest of the day. Have a great day!

ScoutTN Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Hanging out waiting for the 3" ice to melt! It is raining, so I think we will be able to go to the theater this afternoon. Need to drop off books and videos at the library and do a bit of grocery shopping, but driving is not yet a wise choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustEm Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Well the older 2 are sick now! They are quite disappointed because they had an event at the kung fu school to attend tonight that they've been looking forward to for a month. Dh has to go back to work this afternoon to run the event and a weapons seminar so we'll mostly be relaxing in bed today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luckymama Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Happy birthday Tammy! :party: Saturday has tackled me with cramps :( Not up to the gym with the Saturday crowd of guys in their 20s, you know? So a mellow day ahead: --some house stuff --decide on a new recipe to try for dinner --some school planning for next year --order more pointe shoes for ds --some pilates stretching, I think --quality time with a library book :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mom31257 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Tammy-Happy birthday!!!! hjffkj-so sorry, I hope all feel better soon! You, too, Lucky! I've not made it over to the tackle thread for several days. My dad came into town to see my son's last basketball game, so I've been busy visiting with him. My older sister's husband is 17 years older than her and has grown children, some of whom are in their 40s. His middle daughter was found unresponsive and not breathing. She's in a coma and on a respirator. She seems to be having internal bleeding but they can't find the source. She has a 9 year old child. I am praying she can be saved. She is the daughter that my b-i-l has the closest and best relationship with and another death affecting our family is going to be so difficult if she can't be. Done: Dropped off dd at a theater meeting picked up a few groceries started a load of laundry To Do: lunch go to ds' game see Daddy off tidy house more laundry dinner plan school for next week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TammyinTN Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Amy...praying and hope she recovers. :grouphug: Hjffjk hope everyone will be feeling better soon. :grouphug: Luckymama--I completely understand..hope you feel better too. :grouphug: ScoutTn--safe travels if you guys venture out.

MomtoCandJ Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Grrrr dd1's play director is a ding dong. She isn't doing another one with this lady. The play is on Friday and now she's being fussy about costumes. We each had to make our own (which is fine, but now she's wanting certain things to match and it's not going to happen). I just had to buy dd1 new shoes because she didn't like the ones dd1 had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustEm Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Well the kung fu event is likely going to be canceled tonight because of more snow and freezing rain, so at least the kids won't miss it. They'll just have to wait a few weeks for it to be rescheduled. This means dh won't have to go to work until Monday! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swellmomma Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Must be on this thread today to keep myself accountable. My boss is stopping by my house on Monday morning while I am at work to drop off a used couch. Problem is my house is a sty right now. SO lots to get done, going to tackle everything in 15 minute bursts alternating between school work and house work and just plain work work.

Jean in Newcastle Posted February 21, 2015 Author Share Posted February 21, 2015 I overdid it a bit yesterday - woke up with a sore throat. Went to dd's 10k training. She ran 5 miles while Rocky and I walked. Of course I didn't learn from having overdone it and did a personal best on how long I walked down the trail. I'm so tired now I can hardly move! I promise to rest this afternoon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mom31257 Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Thank you for the prayers and hugs! Things are not going well with my sister's stepdd. She is still on life support. The hospital will keep her on it for 48-72 hours, and then her dh will have to decide what to do. She was not breathing when she was found and the ambulance took at least 10 minutes to get there. I ended up doing meal planning, grocery sale comparisons, and shopping. School planning and the house will have to be tomorrow because ds and I are watching The Two Towers.

swellmomma Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 The cleaning is still a work in progress today. All my school work is done though. ds16 and dd7 have been screaming at each other all day and I am going to lose my ever-loving head. I ended up running to the grocery store for a bit too which was not planned. It is now 7pm and I am going to get some more done in the livingroom before sending dd7 to bed so maybe then I can have 5 freaking minutes of peace to have a cup of tea before tackling more. GOod thing I planned to make my list last 2 days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SKL Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Hi guys. It's late but I'll just list what we did today, because I'm liking these threads. Packed gifts for birthday party of kids' friend. Took kids to horse riding lesson. Won battle with snow and very slippery roads. Did some fun reading and chatting at the horse barn instead of the work I was supposed to be doing. Took kids to birthday party. Cleaned kitchen, bathrooms, some clutter. Did some work work. Went with friend (and kids) to test drive car she ordered. Went out to dinner. Made the kids do some picking up. Watched movie with kids at home. Did a little exercise and stretching. Kids to bed. Did some fun reading (Return of the Native) and Sunday School reading for tomorrow. Supposed to be working now, hmmm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean in Newcastle Posted February 22, 2015 Author Share Posted February 22, 2015 Slept until about 4 pm. I was so tired! Then ds wanted me to take him to IKEA. It was the last thing I wanted to do but since he was actually cleaning his room and I want to encourage such behavior (!) I agreed. We went to IKEA - got what he needed and then grabbed a bite to eat at a local Hawaiian place. We agreed never to eat there again! It was very obvious that they had watered everything down to make it stretch farther. Anyway. . . I was almost home when dd texted to ask me to pick her up from her volunteer gig. So I did that and stopped at the grocery store for her before running home. I really need to clean the kitchen, pay bills and iron dh's church stuff. I am soooo tired. I hurt a lot all over. I really should go to church tomorrow morning (after all, I've been doing other things) but I really don't want to. I just want everyone and every thing to go away. . . Sigh.

Melissa in Australia Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 A hot day, about 35oC and I spent all day slaving over the combustion stove preserving food. I made 3 batches of ketchup, bottled heaps of pears, and sliced and salted a huge basket of cucumbers to make bread and butter pickles tomorrow.
