Jean in Newcastle Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 A whole week and weekend of putting "grading" on my list daily and no grading got done. But. . . I did get the taxes done. And a big supplement order. And paid the bills and got some business stuff sorted out. And I did even more driving for the kids than usual. And I got an awful lot of laundry done. And went through the refrigerator. So I wasn't sitting around doing nothing. So. . . grading. school ds to college and work filing yet more laundry call Mom? 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First I fought a headache for 3 days, then I got a cough and now I am wheezing and sneezing, with sore throat and stuffed up head and nasty cough. Can't sleep, can't function, can't breathe. Today: 24 yo son is off to Boston but dh is driving him to the airport 18 has percussion lesson at 10:00 - that's my only outside obligation today. Otherwise: Sip chicken broth watch TV rest drink lots of water and tea Try not to breathe on my family too much. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mom31257 Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 (edited) Good morning! Hope you feel better soon, Faithr! I got up at 4:45 this morning to take ds to our church to leave on a 3 day mission trip, so I came back home and went back to bed. They go to parts of the Appalachian Trail and cook hamburgers/hot dogs to give to hikers. They offer to pray with them and share the Gospel with them. So, I get a mini-break! And dd is still here, so I'll get to be with her a bit more before she goes back to school. Done: took ds to church fed cats coffee To Do: breakfast Spend time with dd, maybe lunch out tidy house pay bills ship some boxes of curricula dinner date out with hubby since we'll be empty nesters for a bit Edited April 17, 2017 by mom31257 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pink and Green Mom Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 (edited) I'm late to the party here. My week long sore throat has left and some sort of sinus infection has replaced it. Oldest has a day off of school for Easter Monday today. And I just broke my 2 week long Whole30 by eating half a chocolate bunny and now I feel disgusting. But other than that.... -coffee -get oldest to driving lesson -youngest does school on his own -DH takes youngest to co-op -sit around and wait for the plumber to get here (no laundry can be done before that) -empty dishwasher -attempt to work out (easy 30 minute HIIT workout) -work with youngest on history and writing after co-op -do some hot spot decluttering for house appraisal Thursday -grocery store (or order online via Shipt) -tons of laundry for oldest (baseball uniforms incluing white pants, school unforms, gym clothes) -dinner (left over pork tenderloin, salad and potatoes from yesterday) -get oldest to conditioning gym ETA: still sitting here waiting for the plumber. I hate this because not only can I not do laundry, but I cannot work out, either. Edited April 17, 2017 by Pink and Green Mom 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SKL Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Hi guys. I pretty much took today off work. I spent last night at my parents' after doing taxes and chatting. Would have done some work in the morning, but everyone got up shortly after I did, so I spent the rest of the morning blabbing. My kids had a doctor appointment at 2pm. Just a well visit. Back home, still cleaning for the out-of-towners who will arrive tonight. Got one last load of laundry done. The final task will be cleaning out the critter cages and moving them to the laundry room. Kids have gymnastics tonight. I'll walk/work at gymnastics. Dinner out with guests. Probably blabbing late with guests. Finally, work or sleep? Should work, but will probably be exhausted. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
