Good Morning

It was in the low 30's when I got to work and its suppose to get to 40 today but with 20-30mph winds.

I'm only working until lunch today so Paige is at home with her daddy and our friends that came up for the weekend. They are going to try to go skiing/snowboarding this afternoon when I get off work and I am trying to decide if I want to go and take Paige and sit around and wait on them or if I am just going to stay home and get something together for dinner since it is Joes b-day today.

On the bright side there is no laundry or cleaning that needs to be done since we did that before they arrived.

Have a good weekend everyone, with houseguests I probably won't be online much if at all until they leave.

It's 32º here. Chilly but refreshing. I just know it's not going to last.

Today I need to

empty the dishwasher.
vacuum again. (The dog found a piece of chalk. grrr)
help the boys pick up the playroom.
take a shower.
make up a tv schedule with DH. (We are cutting out Tv YAY!!)

Good Morning! Got a late start this morning, hubby let me sleep in and I didn't get up till almost 9. Fixed us some breakfast and chatted awhile. Need to do at least 1 load of clothes and hang them out. It's 38 degrees here now. Need to pack his lunch for work and fix us dinner before he goes.

Today is an extremely lazy day here.

My schedule went from working 5 8 hour days (with a half day if we worked Saturday) to working 4 9 nine hour days and having a day off if we worked Saturday....all to benefit a parttimer who barely does her job....

And I have the day off, so I kept ds home from daycare and we are having a grand old time.

Well it is cold and rainy here....I wanted to stay in bed. When the baby I watched came, I put him in bed with me LOL and we slept til 9:30. I haven't done a whole lot today so far. Just taking care of two babies, I did wash diapers and started a laundry load, made the bed, figured out a dinner plan and got dressed.

I still need to:
~ run to the store
~ go to the new house and paint this afternoon (waiting for the baby to leave at lunch)
~ maybe crochet a bit

and just stay warm!!
