Jean in Newcastle Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 Dd and I are going with dh on a job. It's in a scenic area and he thinks that he can get done with the assignment in an hour or so. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mom31257 Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 (edited) Good morning! Yes, it was so great to meet Pink and Green Mom!!! It was the best part of being at the conference! I hope to be on here more, too. Ds made it Colorado, and I made it home from the convention late last night. I'll still have tutoring this week, and I hope to get some cleaning out projects done. Dd is dealing with more depression and anxiety than she has had, and she is in counseling. Please pray for her! Today: Church lunch out get a plan together for this week work on co-op classes work on Wednesday night Awana lesson go to dinner with a friend to celebrate her birthday Edited March 25, 2019 by mom31257 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MysteryJen Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 Praying for your dd, Amy. Mine called in tears from the meet- a torn hip labrum is no joke and unsupportive (actively difficult) teammates have made this meet a terrible experience. She is scratching out of the mile today-never has done that before- and is counting the hours until she flies to see her sister. Rough, rough all the way around. I am super sore and tired. I am planning to clean the house while it is cold and this afternoon, put in some edging for beds. coffee/paper laundry grocery trip- donuts for ds3 write clean house put in edging read and relax a little Have a great day! 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Selkie Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 Good morning! I am sooo envious that Amy and Pink and Green got to meet each other! Amy and Jen, prayers for your dds. One of my boys is going through a rough patch with his OCD, and I am worrying about sending him back up to school. And, as always, feeling guilty because he inherited it from me.😞 Also, dh and I had to have a chat with him and his brother yesterday about making an effort to get along, or at least not be at each other's throats, for the rest of the school year. Their personalities are so different and rooming together has not worked out well...*sigh* plan my week figure out what we are going to eat this week get groceries and clean laundry together for boys to take back up to school brush dogs and groom horses vacuum order stamps make almond milk dinner: probably veggie burgers 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jean in Newcastle Posted March 24, 2019 Author Share Posted March 24, 2019 Got off the ferry and drove for over an hour to the small clinic where dh is fixing their computer system. Dropped him off. Dd and I are exploring the beachfront and piers. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had cramps in my legs the whole time I was driving. And I have already met my step goal and we haven’t gone on our planned hike yet. I am not saying anything to dh or dd -don’t want to take away from a fun day. But you can pray that I will manage the rest of the day. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean in Newcastle Posted March 24, 2019 Author Share Posted March 24, 2019 I really hope that dh gets done with his work soon. Dd and I got back to the car around noon ( when dh had predicted that he would be done.). We both took an hour nap in the car and no sign of him yet. And I am hungry. Oh! He just came out! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Selkie Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 It is gloomy and soggy here today. At least the snow has been taken out of tomorrow's forecast, although we are supposed to get some later in the week - boo! Got the boys sent off to school and I've been working on getting my messy house back in order. Lots of vacuuming. Cut dh's hair. Figured out four dinners I can make this week without having to go to the grocery store - yay. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DawnM Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 I have seriously been so overwhelmingly busy that I don't even have time to post what I am doing! Cleaner/stager/organizer has been here 3 days so far, and will come 3 days this next week. Trash cans are full loads of stuff to the storage unit has happened. massive cleaning/moving stuff/getting rid of stuff/shopping Realtor came yesterday to discuss details Appraiser is coming Tue to measure. Photographer is coming Friday to get pictures. It should hit MLS by the end of this week or early the following week. Meanwhile work has ramped up to a crazy level of busy. And I am supposed to take the National Boards test at the end of April. I am seriously thinking of changing that to mid June if I can. Hoping we sell quickly and can move everything out during my Spring Break at the end of April. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean in Newcastle Posted March 25, 2019 Author Share Posted March 25, 2019 Had lunch drove up into the PNW rain forest. Hiked. Driving back towards the ferry. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean in Newcastle Posted March 25, 2019 Author Share Posted March 25, 2019 Accidentally got on the road that doesn’t go on the ferry but goes the long way around. Oh well. There was a two hour wait for the ferry. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScoutTN Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Finally catching up here after a busy weekend. Hiked 10 miles, mostly steep hills, with AHG girls yesterday and am sore today. But the weather was glorious, the girls are fun and it was so nice to spend the day outdoors - worth a few sore muscles. I need to work on identifying wildflowers! Dd earned a superior rating at her piano audition last weekend and got to play in an honors recital this afternoon. She is just an intermediate and this year is her/our first dabble into any competitive music events. Fun for her to do well on this. I'll see if I can figure out how to post a video tomorrow. Watched some bball. Vols squeaked by again. Sad to see UCF lose to Duke at the last second. I always like to see a few big upsets! Ds gets his Arrow of Light tomorrow night, so I need to write down some thoughts for Dh to include in his words to Ds in the ceremony. Off to bed for me. Tomorrow will be busy! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
