CanadianAlison+3boys Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 Me! I'm home this weekend with a kiddo who wasn't able to travel this weekend and my MIL just left with DH and my two youngers. I didn't sleep at all last night which is a bad thing for my pain so first on the agenda now is to take pain meds and try and sleep while DS1 watches a movie. After that I will be back with a plan to tackle some projects in small steps. We are slowly Kon Mari-ing our house and it is making a difference. Need to keep the momentum up. Before MIL, DH, DS2 and DS3 left this morning I'd fed everyone and dressed the kids and washed a load of dishes and scrubbed down the top of the table. Not a lot but it is very good progress for me considering it isn't even 8am. I know I need to pace myself, so rest it is for now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MommaOfalotta Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 To Do: Wash the mountain of dishes Make 2 desserts for church Fathers day picnic- Heat baked beans in crock pot Pack everything (we are housesitting for my inlaws for the next 2 weeks... :eek: ;) ) Load up car.... animals and all... *sigh* When Dh gets off work- Drop off dessert and beans at the church on the way out Should also try and bathe the children and animals... And I'm going to clean as much as possible so we can come home to a clean house. Get to in laws and do absolutely nothing the rest of the evening. :hurray: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

medawyn Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 I'm in "Survive Saturday" mode. DH returns from an 8 day trip today, so I would like to get a few things done before he returns: - put away all books that have migrated around the house - put away the new art supplies that arrived yesterday - finish all the hand wash dishes - dry the "last" load of laundry, fold two loads, and put away clothes from those + one more - farmer's market with the kids (and maybe stop by the "summer fair"?) - grocery store trip depending on farmer's market success - shower - stretch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TammyinTN Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 Good Morning...we officially finished up 11th grade on Friday! Summertime....sweet summer is finally here! :party: DH is going to a work swim party and I'm staying home...this humidity kills me. I'm deep cleaning each floor of our house --today is the main floor, tomorrow the basement and Monday the top floor. Everything will get moved, dusted, washed and cleaned. Floors, bathrooms, ceiling, fixtures...you name it...it's getting cleaned. :D We are on baby watch as our new grandson should arrive soon...due date is June 30th but sometimes so goes early. Sophia turns 3 on July 2nd and were having a party next weekend with all the grandparents coming and some friends. Hope everyone has a lovely day! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKL Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 What was supposed to happen: Get up at 7am, get the kids to horse camp by 8, crank out a ton of work by noon (now)....What actually happened: Overslept until 8:30, got the kids to horse camp after 9:30, did a little housework, played on the internet until noon .... OK so for the rest of the day: Fold and put away laundry. Work. Give the kids some school work when they come home (probably around 5pm?) Dinner, read-aloud. Watch Kung Fu. Kids to bed. Work.

Jean in Newcastle Posted June 20, 2015 Author Share Posted June 20, 2015 LOL - no sleeping in for me. My stupid body had insomnia last night so it was late when I finally fell asleep. I did "sleep in" until 7 am but then my stupid body wouldn't sleep any more even though I didn't get anything close to 8 hours. Human care done Pet care done dropped dd off at volunteering Dealt with hysterical neighbor who was stung by a wasp (she's ok) Now I have to finish all my own medical care.

Boy, when I list it all out, I've gotten a lot done this morning! It's hot now, so I'm inside resting a bit and having some water.

Luckymama Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 I forgot that today is the ordination anniversary celebration of one of our priests. He actually married us, almost 24 years ago, on his first time at the parish :D So dh and I are going for a walk (the angelfood cake is cooling; all house and yard stuff is done for the day), and then we'll go to the 5 pm mass followed by the party :) Cake recipe will follow later! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustEm Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 So I went to The walking Company to find a pair of walking sandals and get fitted in order to ask for them for my bday. Impatient me couldn't wait and I spent way too much money today but myfeet are already thanking me! Maybe I can just ask for money to compensate for the cost. Luckily the people who will be getting me gifts won't be insulted with a suggestion for money. Time to figure out what is for dinner 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've made the executive decision that the grocery store does not need to get done today; DH is flying home from a week in Paris, so I'm sure take out Mexican or Chinese sounds perfect. :leaving: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
