SKL Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Let's see, I have a couple of conference calls, and I'm supposed to be prepared for them early, and I am supposed to review a bunch of tax returns before that. And then I guess I could start working on my deadlines for next week. If I weren't such a slug, I'd plan on getting up early.... Friday's list: Get the kids up & out, including memory/spelling review, breakfast, lunches. [done] Clean bathrooms, kitchen, and some clutter. [done] Work until 3pm. Need to go to the downtown office to work, ugh. [change of plans, working at home, yay!] Call 4H. [i called, only to find out they are not open on Fridays.] Be home when kids get home from school, work some more. [done] Maybe do a little exercise. [done] Kids have "Friday Fun Day" i.e. free-for-all until dinner. [done] Dinner out. It's my turn to choose the restaurant. I usually choose Olive Garden. [done] Buy birthday gift for niece. [done] Watch Kung Fu with the kids. [done] Kids to bed. [done] Work until midnight. [done] 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DawnM Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Heading out this am to take my older two to a possible Eagle project location and meeting with the director. It is an hour away, so it will take most of the morning. Oldest is leaving for a backpacking trip at 1:30pm so we need to get him ready. Later this afternoon I think I will need a nap. It has been a long and stressful week and the stress isn't letting up. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SKL Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Well, this is even better - my Outlook calendars disappeared. Are you kidding me? All my deadlines and kids' activities and birthdays - poof? With my memory the way it is? Speaking of birthdays, I should go to Walmart tonight (we'll be in the neighborhood anyway) to buy my niece's birthday present, and while there, I might as well buy my kids those bikes I promised them. :) That should make for a fun evening.

Jean in Newcastle Posted March 20, 2015 Author Share Posted March 20, 2015 I hope you get things figured out, SKL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKL Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 I hope you get things figured out, SKL. Thanks. I do have a personal email account which is more reliable than my work email. It is a pain but I can work around the email issue until it gets resolved. We have people in India who are in charge of our server stuff and made me do this changeover. Hopefully they will know what to do about it, but I have not heard back from them, which is unusual, even though they are on a different time zone. I did back up before I did the switch. Going forward I need to find a more fool-proof method somehow. It's hard to find the right balance between task efficiency and reliability.

Jean in Newcastle Posted March 20, 2015 Author Share Posted March 20, 2015 I haven't taken my meds yet so I'm feeling great. I have too many clothes this morning! I went down to the laundry room this morning and picked out some clothes from the clean pile (and brought the whole pile up to fold and put away). Then when I went into the bathroom to change I discovered the set I had picked out last night and put in there! I like this morning's choices more so that's what I'm wearing. I am rewashing the load that was in the washer all day yesterday and overnight. Breakfast is done. And now (sigh) I have to take my meds.

JustEm Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 I'm currently cuddling a sleeping 2 year old and smiling 6 week old.I no longer want to tackle anything. This is heaven. Dh should be home for lunch soon so that means I'll have to hand the kids over and go to the grocery store. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jean in Newcastle Posted March 20, 2015 Author Share Posted March 20, 2015 1 load washed and now in the dryer 1 load all folded and waiting to be put away once dh is up and out of the bedroom dd exercised. I sat and played Hay Day. Slacker (on purpose until I can get this infection under control) Dishwasher ready to run once we totally fill it with lunch dishes. I need to figure out lunch. I don't want to figure out lunch. I want to sleep or do nothing. Bah. I wonder if I have enough leftovers that will allow me to do that?

SKL Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Whew, got through those 2 conference calls. I snuck a little nap. My kids should be home any minute. I still have to review a pile of tax returns, but it should be do-able. Then I can look forward to a weekend of relaxing ... work! :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean in Newcastle Posted March 20, 2015 Author Share Posted March 20, 2015 Teamwork is great. Ds tackled the kitchen floor. I tackled the kitchen garbage and compost. Dd made lunch. Dh slept (he's swingshift). He'll have something to eat when he gets up. The dishwasher is a bit fuller now but still has room. I think I need to snort baby shampoo and vinegar again (ENT prescribed regimen). Triple Bah! (This hurts like blazes.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustEm Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Kids are picking up toys down stairs so I can sweep before brother and his family get here. When they leave tonight I'm going to spend 30 minutes decluttering computer room and call it a night. Never got my workout in so its the first thing I'm doing tomorrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean in Newcastle Posted March 20, 2015 Author Share Posted March 20, 2015 Dh off to work Did math and language arts with dd. She's finishing up the rest on her own. She's finishing one book today. Now what?! I suppose I should see how ds is doing on his physics. OK - time to put away folded laundry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jean in Newcastle Posted March 21, 2015 Author Share Posted March 21, 2015 Napped for far longer than I wanted to. My tummy is not happy. Sigh. More probiotics. (I'm already taking them 2x a day.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was afraid I'd either fall asleep or cough/sneeze through it. Am home with a nice cup of hot cocoa and a book :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean in Newcastle Posted March 21, 2015 Author Share Posted March 21, 2015 Forgot that I was trying to fill up the dishwasher so I hadn't run it yet. Ended up with way too many dishes to fit. Running what fit now. Put away the folded laundry. Took out recycling. Took dd back and forth to the Y. *** Need to do handwashing and clean the countertops.

SKL Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 Kids got new bikes today. I still remember how exciting that felt as a kid. :P I know my kids are spoiled, but they can still find a new bike exciting. :) Also bought birthday gifts for two people. Made various arrangements for Saturday. Watched Kung Fu. Now need to go to bed. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
