Ok. So I have a lot to do before my classes start up. I'm only taking two but they look like they are going to be a bit challenging to this non-mathematical person!! We shall see. Two days before my classes start we also have dd's 2nd birthday so I really need to get the house in tip-top shape.

One of the most important things I need to do before then is to get on a schedule (mostly for cleaning, but also for studying). Dh has this habit of wanting me to spend the evenings after the kids go to bed, sitting with him and watching tv. There is just no way that is going to work! I have one show I care about - Heroes!! I will turn the tv on to watch that and then turn it right off. Between the tv and internet, my time to get things done dramatically decreases.

So, the first step I need to do is devise a cleaning schedule around my class schedule. I am taking classes Monday and Wednesdays from 10-1 and on Thursdays from 2-4. But I also know that there will be work that will need to do for them and that the night before the class will probably be occuppied with finishing it up.

Goals for the months:

1. Eat of the pantry and freezer. We spent too much money last month and we're trying to save as much as we can as quickly as we can.

2. Devise cleaning and studying schedule.

3. Set up sub-account through ING savings for the extra amount that we normally would send the gas company. We usually pay $50 a month during the summer no matter what, $100 in fall and $150 January through March. Everything extra will now be going into savings because we do not want them trying to tell us that the extra is HEAP money from last year when we move (or from this year if we move at the beginning of the year). We normally get about $300 regular HEAP and I know how much hassle it is for the money to be returned back to the county and then to our new utility company.

4. Schedule in a little exercise time. At least 30 minutes 3 days a week. I need it deperately. I hate being the same weight as when I was pregnant!!

I am going to list on here every night my to-do list for the next day. Then hopefully I can get the stuff done.
