Halcyon Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Good morning all-another lazy summer day, i hope. My IBS has been flaring up terribly, and last night was a very difficult night. Plus our AC broke, and in Florida in the summer, that's no joke. DH is off to find a capacitor before it gets too hot in here. DS12 and I might have to go the mall or the movies to stay cool. DS9 is in Minecraft camp until noon, so he'll stay cool. 1. return overdue library books 2. clean kitchen 3. laundry--fold the mountain 4. water new sod 5. buy milk, plan dinner for tonight and shop 6. stop by office with new ac filter and pick up fennel tea 7. speak to vet about kippy's medication. 8. work on shawl (knitting) 9. figure out dinner date with Dad 10. drop off L's volunteer application 11. water park with boys later? ******12. pay business comcast bill and electric!!!****** 13. go to yoga class at 530--didn't happen due to IBS 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mom31257 Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Halcyon, hope your AC is easy to fix! AC in the south is so important. Today: laundry pay bills tidy house meals I wanted to go to tea this afternoon, but I don't think it's possible. I have too much to do because I have several appointments tomorrow and leave town Wednesday. I'm having a couple of sister days at my older sister's house before I go pick up dd from her summer college program. That has gone very, very well! Dd is loving being on campus, and it's been a great trial run for getting herself up and out to breakfast and class on time. She's making friends with some who will be coming in the fall, so it will be nice to have some familiar faces on campus when she starts. I think the school came up with a fabulous idea when they started this. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrissiK Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Happy Monday, Girlies! I'm the taxi driver today... 1) drop ds1 off at summer school 2) drop ds2 off at my parents' house to work for my dad for a few hours 3) drop girls off at VBs 4) pick ds1 up from summer school 5) pick ds2 up from my parents' house 6) finish ordering curriculum for next year so I STOP obsessing about it. Good grief, I am driving myself crazy. 7) pick up girls from VBS 8) try, in the mean time to remember that I set the kitchen timer to remind myself to change the water by the trees. We've had to cut waaaay back on our irrigation, but we really need to save our trees. So I have a dripping hose by the trees to try to deep water them. 9) laundry 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKL Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Got the kids to camp. Sitting at the car place having maintenance done. It is conveniently located 3 blocks from the kids' camp location. Working here at the car place, once I get focused. Lots to do today. Pick up the kids at 4pm. Get the kids to do some work in between activities. Kids have swim team at 5pm. I will probably work during that time. Quick dinner on the fly. Kids have tennis lesson at 7pm. Hopefully I can walk during the lesson. Kids to bed. More work. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustEm Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 We had to rush out the house this morning because I forgot the baby had a Dr appointment. Luckily we made it on time. - dd appointment - call church to schedule dd's baptism - fold laundry and put away - go through my clothes and get rid of any I'm done with - exercise DVD - quick clean downstairs - dinner - read for an hour - whatever the kids want to do 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jean in Newcastle Posted June 22, 2015 Author Share Posted June 22, 2015 Got up at 6 something. Dropped ds off at work Kept driving into the big city. Got my fasting labs done even though I got stuck with the one bad phlebotomist. Drove home. Went back to sleep. Could have slept longer but knew I had to get up so I forced myself to get up. Have just eaten breakfast. Now I need to get on with my day. It's bad when your 13 year old is telling you to make your bed. . . . 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TammyinTN Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Good Afternoon.... day 3 of deep cleaning is over! All three floors have been deep cleaned and I've purged more stuff we don't need and the house looks lovely! We are having Sophia's 3rd birthday party here this weekend and I'm so looking forward to family visiting. Our upstairs AC unit went out on Friday and I'm sure hoping they get our new parts in tomorrow so we can sleep in our bed again. The second AC unit for the main floor and basement has kept everyone cool and thank goodness we had an extra bed downstairs for the girls to sleep on. Tomorrow is dental cleaning day for me and the yard guys are coming also. Have a great day everyone! :) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lolly Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 I feel like I have triumphed over this day. 1 hour hike with dog trip to store to purchase new hand trimmer thingies cause dh used mine and they disappeared forever weeded all around the house and trimmed some dead branches out (still have to pick up those piles but it is too hot now!) 2 loads of laundry vacuumed downstairs deep cleaned my bathroom dry cleaner trip grocery store trip dusted bedroom and den tackled and conquered bills on my desk Oh yeah, removed all the shoes from the den and kitchen....I only put mine and dh's away though. The rest are on the stairs waiting for their owners to claim them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean in Newcastle Posted June 22, 2015 Author Share Posted June 22, 2015 baked the new kind of pizza I bought for 3 minutes instead of the 22 minutes it actually said on the package. It's been that kind of a day. . . . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MysteryJen Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Realized I don't have the fabric I thought I did. So the top probably won't be finished before I leave for the meet on Wednesday. Also, a meet attended in May (where dd2 made qualifying times) is not yet in the database. Makes me nervous.... I have some reading to do, but my house is full of neighbor kids playing video games and it is very difficult to concentrate. Not nearly as productive today as I had hoped. Laundry is in the dryer though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susan in TN Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 It's been that kind of a day. . . . I was so tired after story time (very little sleep last night) so I went to lay down for a while. The kids were ramming in and out of the house so much that I finally banished them to their rooms for 45 minutes of SILENCE (!) Still no sleep. I give up.

KrissiK Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Well, got the taxi driving done. All children are home. Big kids are swimming at the neighbors, little girls are playing.

mom31257 Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 3rd load of laundry done meals done took ds to swim practice and took a walk during some of it; It is so humid in the south! ate some of the blueberry vanilla goat cheese ds wanted from Trader Joe's, pretty good worked on the co-op schedule and established our next planning meeting date Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKL Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 We got a thunderstorm at the end of swim practice, so no tennis tonight, and no exercise for me. During dinner I got a series of emails from multiple clients, copied to my boss, who asked me about them before I saw them. This made me look irresponsible and clueless. So now I am under the gun to get several things out tonight or else. This is a tough week. I have many deadlines at the end of June, plus the kids' day camp this week has an odd schedule that makes my work day awkward. I just hope my stamina kicks in so I can get everything done in the night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
