BlsdMama Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 (edited) Look around and find my motivation - I put it somewhere around here.Coffee BiblePhone Calls Today: Dr appt. for EllaMedical Eqpt placePharmacyUgh. Called all. None have done anything. Prescription? Not received from the office. Equipment place? Needs to contact insurance... But I gave them all the info they needed LAST Wednesday. Dr. appointment? Been waiting for the referral since last week after 8 MONTHS of fiddling around with stomach aches. I hate medical finagling. Organize the clothing in 2 tubs and Will's room School: Barton x 3 Math with all Reading with Cate WritingCall Homeschool Office and see if they are open today or tomorrow - run up and get Pudewa videos because the kids love 'em (sarcasm 😉 ) and drop off volunteer background check. (They weren't - Tuesdays only during summer.) And I blew off all the morning stuff because DD didn't want to pay her tax, title, and license by herself. So we left bright and early. When we got there, they are closed on every second Tuesday of the month until 10AM. Today is a lost cause. I can't decide whether to attempt to redeem it or take a nap.

TheReader Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Yes, Jean, how are the hives today? Hopefully improved. For me, I didn't work on DS's quilt yesterday - ended up too hot/tired and just vegged. So, gotta do some of that today. I did, instead, do some more school organizing, so it wasn't a total wash. So today... ....work on the quilt ....go for my mother's day massage (the guys got a groupon for me to go) ...more laundry ...figure out dinner ....maybe organize the school corner of my room, as best I can so I can tell DH what size bookshelf I need in there 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MysteryJen Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 I am feeling pretty virtuous because I made a pasta salad and didn't go to the grocery store. (Taking a bow) 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jean in Newcastle Posted July 11, 2019 Author Share Posted July 11, 2019 Good morning. Hives were really bad last night but Benadryl came to the rescue. So far this morning they are not bothering me even though they are still there but fading. But these hives seem to flare up randomly so we will see how it goes as the day progresses. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BooksandBoys Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Oh, I’m sorry about the hives! Vacuum, Iowa test with middle guy, call for doc appt for me, pay a bill, ABA, babysit friend’s kids, take kids somewhere (swimming? Skating? It should really be swimming but I am not enthusiastic), fold laundry, draft an application thing for middle guy, work for 1.5 hours, lunch, dinner, regular house maintenance. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean in Newcastle Posted July 11, 2019 Author Share Posted July 11, 2019 Ugh. I hope that ds gets his car running very soon. (The plan is tonight or at least by the end of the weekend). 40 minutes spent dropping him off at work Ran to the pet store for cat food for a very impatient cat. Human care is finally done Pet care is done including feeding said cat. Medical care is done Did morning exercises 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean in Newcastle Posted July 11, 2019 Author Share Posted July 11, 2019 Juliet was a great errand partner. Except for the time she tried to climb into the front seat despite being tethered to the back. I was trying to drive and push her back at the same time. . . We went to two pharmacies (regular and compound) and the pet store for her food. She stole some parmesan flavored dog biscuits from a large uncovered bin so I bought some for her since I figured that she must really like them if they made her embark on a life of crime. Then when I got home, dh wanted to go get the new Guava iced tea from Starbucks so I went with him and got my lunch there as well. He thinks it's funny that Starbucks is like Cheers for me - all the young people working there stop and yell out "Jean!" when I walk in. I introduced him to them all. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Selkie Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Jean, I tried the guava iced tea after you mentioned it the other day. It is so good! And you are right about not needing sweetener, because it was plenty sweet without it.🙂 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean in Newcastle Posted July 11, 2019 Author Share Posted July 11, 2019 Ugh. I am spinning a bit on camp prep. I know that I wrote the exact lessons I want to use a number of years ago. But that was at least one computer ago and I didn't have things on the Cloud yet. I went through all the computer disks I could find and couldn't find a backup disk with the documents. I have two dead laptops here that IT Whiz Kid aka Tech Support aka my son, might be able to access. But I cannot find power cords for either of them. I have set them aside. I really could write new lessons and it wouldn't take me that long. But I still have time to keep searching and trying to organize things so that's what I am "wasting" my time doing. I am going to put on music and will go through another stack of papers. These papers are ones I glanced through last night so I know that they don't have what I am looking for, but I also know that I can toss most of them so that is the part I am going to do now. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheReader Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Went and had my massage; that was nice, although one spot on my hip is now more sore. She touched it and it hurt and I kind of gasped, and she thought it tickled, so then avoided the area all together after that. And being a novice at this (only my 2nd massage in my life) I didn't say anything, because I kept thinking she'd get back over there. So now that spot's a little tender, but everything else on my body feels fantastic. Came home and decluttered/organized school stuff. Logged the supply fee checks and one who already sent 1st month's tuition (!!!), and who allows/doesn't allow pics of their kids on the class FB page, etc. Feel pretty good with all of that. Got distracted by a FB message/chat from a college friend in Germany -- DH is home early from work, so the 2 of us chatted with the friend. That was a fun distraction; this friend randomly chats with us, either Skype of FB message, every few years. Cracks me up (once he skyped me so I could talk to his toddler while he cooked lunch or dinner for his older kids). Had an idea for dinner, but not sure how to execute, so need to look that up and see if someone else in the internet has had this idea before (surely it exists somewhere....) (or something close enough that I can follow). still haven't worked on DS's quilt, but have gotten enough school stuff done that tomorrow I should be able to finish both (have no other plans for tomorrow at all) 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean in Newcastle Posted July 11, 2019 Author Share Posted July 11, 2019 Did a lot of shredding. Saved some things - some business things that are still relevant and necessary, some nostalgic (like some of dd's first stories that she wrote). Came across the thank you card from my niece for her wedding (or perhaps shower?) gift where she told me that the blender I got her looked "suave" on her counter. Got another laugh from that. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScoutTN Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Dinner was good. Quick run to Walmart to get a few snacks for City Meet tomorrow. Then a little Jeni's ice cream and my book. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean in Newcastle Posted July 12, 2019 Author Share Posted July 12, 2019 had a little unscheduled nap. picked ds up from work grilled burger and then discovered that my gf buns had molded. ds bought new buns for me but he's stressed and on the cusp of an aspie meltdown so I have taken over the rest of dinner prep. talked to my eldest sister. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jean in Newcastle Posted July 12, 2019 Author Share Posted July 12, 2019 Fourth time was a charm. Dishwasher emptied, dishes put away and now filled and running again. Found something in my files that my mom was asking me about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
