school- extremely frustrating right now. DD12 is at that age, and Latin is hard, so the looks on her face and the attitude I am getting make me consider running away right now. 

 

clean up as much as possible as I go, laundry ongoing. Folding now. (well now right now) next to dds doing their schoolwork. 

 

drive kids to dance. 

 

get registered for consignment sale and pull out the first box to start ironing. Maybe get started?? 

 

work on budget and bills when dh comes home for late lunch break with him. 

 

take everyone to church. Drop them off for dinner. 

 

Go grocery shopping, pick them up on way home. 

 

I'm tired already. It's not even lunch. :)

Ds from college to work

 

Managed to get home without crashing by pinching myself hard to stay awake.  Napped immediately on getting home since being up with Rocky for over an hour in the middle of the night was taking a big toll..  Got interrupted by telemarketers twice.  :cursing:  Still, I managed to get just enough of a nap in to keep sort of functional.

 

Taught what the WTM ladies taught me in algebra.  I can do it!  I'm so proud of myself.  :lol:

 

Taught Japanese

 

Unloaded the dishwasher. 

 

called re. prescription

All done - at least all that is going to get done today.

Next up, PJs, kids to bed, heating pad for my shoulders , time to read and relax.  

 

Crazy weather here! 

Temp dropped about 20 degrees in an hour or so. Super windy and mostly clear sky.

We are under tornado watch, but I think the rain storm passed us earlier today.

Good thing I checked back in, because it reminded me to send out the scout newsletter.  Not much to report, but what there is needs to be read!

 

Good news for me - I finally got through to my friend who was diagnosed with cancer last fall.  Sounds like she is "OK," she and her husband (also sick) are living in an apartment with daily visits from health care folks.  So now I have their new address, and I also got her son's phone number.  I know to extend their tax return and will work on a game plan from there.  I need to figure out a way to visit them and also a way to have a real conversation.  We used to go back and forth on email all the time, but that stopped over a year ago.  :(

 

In other news - I was able to walk for about a half hour tonight - second time in 3 days.  Plus I have done my yoga routine for 4? consecutive days.  May not sound like much, but it's actually been a long time since I've done anything that regular.  I also played a little piano.  Too bad I can't say I also got a lot of work done.  :P

 

I didn't get to my calendar, but I did catch up on a number of personal tasks, including some donations that were time-sensitive.
