Critterfixer Posted November 21, 2021 Posted November 21, 2021 Morning. It's not starting out to be a great week off here--the grocery list kind of got fumbled. But hopefully everything will work out. Today's goals: House: chores, prep for housecleaning week, although I'm scheduled for my 3rd COVID vax on Monday and might not be good for much. Cooking: making soup today and cleaning out the refrigerator, grocery run School: none, week off Writing: continue reading, revisions today over two stories. This is the last week of NaNoWriMo, so time to put in the big push and get everything done before December hits like a ton of bricks. 1 Quote

HomeAgain Posted November 26, 2021 Posted November 26, 2021 Happy Black Friday! There is no shopping going on in my house. 🙂 Physical stores are too far away/full of Covid-y people and there won't be deals on what I have on my list for others online. Today is: finish cleaning the kitchen from Thanksgiving set up for Christmas inside the house (it's rain with a possibility of snow outside) watch a show with the family eat leftovers make sure ds's laundry is done for the weekend. 2 Quote
serendipitous journey Posted November 27, 2021 Posted November 27, 2021 Evening! Well, pies got done in time for Thanksgiving; we spent it with a wonderful family we're friends with and see only rarely; and today the only shopping was the weekly grocery run -- which DH did with the boys so I could spend some time doing not much of anything at all. The kitchen here isn't clean yet, and we didn't even do the whole meal. !!! Tomorrow will see us, good Lord willing & creek don't rise, picking out a tree. And I need to keep going with migraine prevention; and, of course, clean & prep school. Plus just read some: I'm craving that. 2 Quote
HomeAgain Posted November 27, 2021 Posted November 27, 2021 Last day of the week! Already started the laundry I didn't do yesterday. 😄 Today's going to be pretty light. Ds has a game, dh and I are going to do date night, and hopefully the part arrives for other ds's car so that can installed and then taken to get inspected. 2 Quote
