Tackling Saturday Together

[mom31257]

Good morning! I hope everyone who celebrates had a great Christmas! 

If was definitely different for us...opening presents here instead of with family, dd not being here, Zoom meeting with just my side of our families since we "saw" dh's this week. 

Done:

breakfast and antibiotic, fed Callie, did some work on grading for math classes, researched statistics activity ideas for a new co-op class next month

To Do:

• pay bills/update checking
• more work on my classes for co-op (I'm thinking get the whole semester planned.)
• lunch and dinner
• laundry
• tidy house
• play some games
• watch some Netflix

Good morning! My mom couldn't come, but other than that our Christmas day was fairly normal. Stockings, breakfast, gifts, lounge around and play with new things, nice meal, more lounging and movies. Today will be very relaxed with little tackling! 

Our wifi is out bc of the explosion. Definitely limits what gets done today. 

So I will mostly read a novel and enjoy leftovers. I'll walk later when it warms up. Probably play new games with kids. Remind Dd to study her drivers' manual some. I will drive by my mom's and drop off some food sometime in the middle of the day.

• I WILL work on my boards for a min. of 1 hour today.
• Hit 2 stores, possibly 3 if the 3rd is open.
• Get together a plan for eating better and exercising (mostly for energy, but losing weight would be a big bonus as well
• Look at finances and figure out a few thing with DH

I've had a lazy morning, so the first thing on the list is to get out of this recliner.

Balance the checkbook-done

Stop eating Carrot cake-good grief, but it's so good-grr

Leftovers for dinner tonight-I cooked a ton of food yesterday

Fold laundry-done

Google classroom

Start cleaning cabinets

Work in bedroom some-I need to prep a wall for painting

Wash my hair

That should keep me busy

Got a shower and delivered leftovers to my mom.

Next up, change shoes and take a walk with the silly dog. 

Then some menu planning. May have to go into the grocery bc no wifi and limited data, so no ordering for curbside. 

[mom31257]

2 loads of laundry done, about to go load a third

lunch is done (leftover BBQ)

finally filed the FAFSA I kept putting off

played a couple of games of Catan Dice game 

got a general game plan for the first four of the 8  classes (hands-on math, writing, language arts). Our co-op only meets every other week.

I don't shop on Sunday and do not want to go to the grocery today, so tweaking menus to reflect what we have on hand. Good to make some space in the freezer and pantry anyway! 

The last gift, Dd's Birchbox, came today.

I did a job I’ve been putting off for about 2 years: clean off the ping pong table in the basement.  

It had become a catch-all for any odds or ends that we didn’t know what else to do with. 

I thought it would take me all day. 

It took me an hour.

 

 

So...that’s done!  And it could have been done 2 years ago, but I thought it was Such A Big Job.

 

 

I have some things to do for the rest of the day, but not much. I thought I’d be working in the basement all day long, but now I have many free hours ahead of me.  Since it’s the day after Christmas and vacation, I think I’ll mostly chill and play with my new Christmas toys (some photography gear and exercise videos.)

Moved the laundry, folded and put away a load.

Started bread.

Made tea. Enjoying it in a wuiet house. All my people are outside, enjoying the sunshine and visiting from across the street with neighbors.

38 minutes ago, Margaret in CO said:

Instead of looking at science I met up with a friend and we walked 7 miles. It was COLD!

I wish I had your motivation and determination. I'm embarrassed to say what temperatures I can tolerate.

[ScoutTN]

Called mom.

More laundry.

Bread in the oven.

Tidied the kitchen.

Had leftovers for dinner, plus some fermented kraut as my salad. I think I am addicted to fermented veggies! 

In a while: 

Finish watching Pride and Prejudice.

[mom31257]

I've finished my list except pay the bills and update checking. I'll do that tomorrow afternoon. 

 

[ScoutTN]

Dh got absorbed in Pride and Prejudice and liked it. Expanding his horizons! He's not, not a literature person. 

My kids do great imitations of Mrs. Bennett!
