Good morning.  Feeling disgusting based on my intake of candy last night.  Didn't sleep well, stomach problems, bloated, ick.

 

-coffee

-furiously cleaning up house for cleaning people at 8:30 am

-give dog his heartworm pill

-scrub and launder baseball uniform, needed at 3 pm today, for DS16 who insisted, up until the moment he got in the car for school, that his uniform was clean

-leave at 9 am for co-op (physical science, geometry, speech/debate, literature)

-arrive home at 2:45, leave at 3:30 for baseball

-workout (desperately needed)

-dinner (no clue)

Good morning!  I slept in a bit again because dh still has jury duty. 

 

Dd texted me this morning about something at school. The school has cross-cultural trips (and requires every student to go on one), and she has applied for a 3 week art/humanities tour of Italy. There are more applicants than spots, so she is getting up super early to get to the office and fill out the paperwork/pay the deposit and hopefully make it in. 

 

Done:

breakfast and coffee

fed cats

tutored my youngest student

transferred money for dd 

 

To Do:

school with ds

laundry

pay bills/update checking

church

watch more ST2

I have gotten many, many steps today.  

 

This morning, I took the 6 horses down to the lower pasture. They have to be led down since it is not connected to our other pastures. I take the four rowdier horses down one at a time, then double up the two lazy ponies - so five trips down and back. 

 

The plan was to leave them down there all day and then have the kids help bring them up this evening - but it just started sleeting and there is no shelter in that pasture. So back I go, five trips down and back to get them all back up here so they can stay warm and dry.  :tongue_smilie: 

 

The weather is miserable and my fingers are frozen. I'm looking forward to spending the rest of the afternoon in the warm house.  :)

Home to a lovely dinner from ds3 (oven fried chicken breasts, mustard dipping sauce, caesar salad and bread). He is turning into quite a good cook. Watching the Dodgers implode, sigh.

 

Have a few things to put away and the kitchen to clean (small price to pay for dinner ready when we walked in the door).

 

Have a great night!
