Can I come for dinner?

 

Leaving shortly for 5 mile walk with a friend. We also walked 5 last night and will do another 5 tomorrow.

 

T-ball game at 9.

 

Working on washing all of the quilts/down comforters in the house this week. Next week is ceiling fans/light fixtures!

 

Sent grad announcements yesterday, 3 days ahead of schedule- yea!

 

Need to get newly 7-year old to write birthday thank you notes. That might require a glass of wine. For me, not her!

[Openhearted]

Visit with mom, check status of moving to rehab: 9-11 this morning.

Done. Mom is being moved today after all. Pre cert finally came through.

 

Hair appointment at 12 noon. This will take a while.

Done. It didn't turn out like I thought, due to my salon ignorance, but I learned something.

 

Early evening: laundry, tidy house. It will probably be a disaster because I will have been gone all day.

Done. Amazingly dd16 cleaned, done laundry and took care of the twins. I paid her well.

 

Now they are wanting to go out to eat. So supper. Done.

 

I like these tackle threads.

Keeping us on our toes Jean?  :D

 

Today--it's raining again.... :rolleyes:  I'm sort of over all this rain!

 

Clean, purge, organize and repeat...this will be the story of my life for the next 28 days. 

 

Have a great day!

- start kitchen deep clean (it needs to be done before I start back to school in August along with the rest of the house (though living room has been done along with girls room)- stove/oven, vent done (well burner grates in dishwasher and oven self clean going, vent filter drying outside), organized cabinet above dishwasher (where dd2's sippy cups are, had to match valves with lids because it irritates me to have to hunt them down), cleaned out/organized fridge (freezer was done a few days ago)

- when dd1 gets back from friend's house she needs to clean her room

- nap- done

- dinner- too hot

- pack up for work- done

Hi!  Happy Saturday!  We all survived yesterday (very late busy night) and then slept in today.  Would you believe my kid lost her music notes AGAIN (she carried them into the school at 6:35 and they were gone by 7:00!)  But luckily she had it pretty well memorized.  Just a few mistakes and slowdowns - no worse than any of the kids who had their notes.  :p  Such a big smile afterward.  :)

 

Today:

• A little work & catch up on social media. [done]
• Kids' last soccer game at noon.  [done - shutout win!  6-0 for the season!  Both of mine got a goal today!  Nice way to end it.]
• Surprise ice cream (from coach) after soccer game.  [done]
• Some lunch or play at park.  [done]
• Kids' golf lesson.  Walk while they golf?  [done]
• Kids' work.  [assigned]
• Work.  [doing....]
• Read-aloud?
• Kids to bed.
• Work.

Dd's birthday tea party is this afternoon. She is feeling a bit under the weather, so she is napping this morning. I hope she feels better by 1:00!

Hard to catch up with 8 moms at this point. She has had this mild, intermittent nausea and general fatigue off and on the last few weeks. I am wondering if it is hormonal, as she is beginning to develop. 

 

Thankfully, Ds is at my mom's until right before the party, so we have a quiet house.

Scones baked, flowers arranged, strawberries dipped, cheese out of the fridge, table set, house tidied (many thanks to Dh!)

 

Now for a shower, clean clothes and making the Devonshire cream (wearing an apron!)

 

The sun is coming out. If it stays out, I may take Ds to the pool tonight. 

 

[Pink and Green Mom]

-work out (cardio day)

-laundry  XX

-go out to dinner with some friends

 

and apparently

-listen to youngest moan and groan about how he can't sit on his butt and watch TV all day

-listen to oldest moan and groan that he has to study for his finals this week-

-argue with oldest for the umpteenth time that zeroes on schoolwork will drag your grades down to an unacceptable level

I know...for some reason this move just makes me weepy.....I'm a mess.  My kids and hubby think I'm off the rails.  :o

Tea party was successful! :hurray:  :hurray: 

11 yo girls are very easy; they entertain themselves and just talk up a storm. 

 

Next up:

grocery run to get spinach for a salad for tomorrow's picnic

 

dinner - burgers, fried potatoes and some veggie

Sure you can! :D

 

I need to add ceiling fans and light fixtures soon. Also baseboards. 

[Laurel-in-CA]

DH and I are deep-cleaning the bedroom. Moving furniture, cleaning fan & its fixtures (for which our high ceilings mean we need a step ladder), and choosing more stuff for online sales. Turns out we need to add vacuum cleaner repair to that list as well.

I forgot to wash my kids' soccer uniforms.  The last time they wore them, they played with shaving cream and got it all over themselves.  I rinsed them and hung them in my shower to dry, then stuffed them into my dirty clothes hamper.  Yesterday was such a busy and exhausting day, I forgot all about laundry.  So today I dragged the uniforms (and leggings) out of the bins and laid them out.  LOL!  They smelled like soap!  Could be worse!

 

Well, it was a good game (for us anyway).  Both of my kids made a goal, and we ended the season 6-0.  I don't know if we can play another season of soccer.  I keep saying we're not going to, but we really love it.  Maybe we can make it work somehow.  I may be slightly insane.

OK I'm having a really hard time with my sinuses right now.  Work is not going well.  :/
