We leave for the airport in 23 hours, and my list is monstrously long :eek:

 

(Dh and I are flying to Seattle tomorrow, taking a train to Vancouver for an Alaskan cruise, renting an RV in Anchorage, and spending several days in Denali National Park hiking :D)

 

While we are gone, ds22 will finish his packing, load up the Pack Rat container, and drive to his new job across the country :(

Jean...hope you feel much better today.  :grouphug:

 

MomtoCandJ ...hope your power comes back on asap!

So Monday is always weigh in day for me, but I'm thinking of changing it to Friday this week as to get back on my school schedule.   I lost 5.6 pounds this week and have lost a total of 13.8 in the last 14 days...I'm 16.8 pounds away from my first big goal and hope to make it by September 1st.   Fingers and toes crossed.  

 

Today:

  • vacuum, dust and mop the house
  • clean all bathrooms
  • laundry--sheets from both the kids rooms
  • towels washed and replaced
  • cook delicious healthy meals x 3
  • mini exercise 

Have a lovely day everyone!  :D

Try to fix my printer. It keeps taking the paper in crookedly.  Tried everything. Getting a newer one off Craigslist today for $25. I don't have time or energy for machines that don't work!

Tidy up the house.
Clean bathrooms.
Reorganize my craft cabinet and curriculum-I'm-not-currently-using cabinet.
Walmart - ugh!

Take Dh to pre-op appt. at the hospital.

dinner??  Whatever I can pull together without much effort. Fish sticks, corn on the cob, tomatoes, zucchini, watermelon.

😭 they are saying we won't have power until around 4 pm on Thursday

Oh no! :grouphug: We once went five days without power after a tropical storm when the kids were 11, 9, and 4. It was in September so still quite warm and humid. Youngest dd liked to cuddle...

After a super busy weekend following a grueling work deadline, I dropped the kids off at camp this morning and got home around 9:30am.

 

I have had a relatively light but steady series of little work things.  I'm also supposed to be doing one bigger work thing, but I kinda forgot about it until recently.  :P

 

My kids are gone all week.  I hope to use the relative calm to get up to date with accounting, filing, bill paying, housework, and put together some furniture / equipment that's been sitting around unassembled for way too long.  Also exercising.

 

Still dealing with a political work/personal type issue, but I hope it will quiet down now.  Other than me feeling like a jerk because I can't please anyone.

 

I don't know if there's any point making a list for today.  Mostly just a little of this and a little of that.
