    ~We're having severe thunderstorms all day here so I'm getting my FV fix before I have to shut down the computer.
    We had planned to go peach picking but the weather isn't cooperating.
    Dh has the day off today and is sleeping in. I think I may go over to the thrift store and gym when he wakes up. Then maybe play video games this afternoon.
    It's the last week before school so I'm doing as little as possible!~

    Fridays are one of my favorite days! It should be a light day at work and then off to start real life for the weekend.

    For today:
    ~ work
    ~ take care of the rest of the bills for the month
    ~ laundry (lots of sheets and blankets as everyone in the house but me had a bug this past week)
    ~ write the letter about my son to his teacher
    ~ dinner (leftovers - so quick and easy)
    ~ play time on the computer or reading
    ~ inventory a few of the stockpile bins
    ~ make a grocery list
    ~ the daily quick straighten and vaccuum
    ~ excersize of some sort
    ~ oil the bedroom furniture

    It'll be a light day since most of the stuff I don't mind doing and DH will have the boys at soccer practice so I can just push through the chores early and reward myself with excersize and playtime while they're gone.

    I've got some sourdough started in the fridge I REALLY ought to do something with

    It's raining here today and when it rains I like to spend time in my kitchen. I've cleaned it and now I want to make DH a butter fudge cake. While it's baking I need to do a freezer inventory and plan next week's menus.

    It has been a constructive week. Still putting up blackberries,tomatoes, corn, and blueberries.I also made salsa. Stopping for lunch, then getting ready to go out to the farm. They are moving hay, and I want to take out some sandwiches and fruit.Busy, busy! I like it like that.Tonight we are going to friends for cards. Hope you are having a good day.
