    ~Can I just do nothing today? It's cold, rainy and dreary here. I guess that's good though because I don't have to do laundry. So besides dishes, cooking, baking cake and folding a load of clean towels I want to:
    -load some stuff into my car
    -inventory my pantry and freezers
    -inventory my kids clothes
    -spend my me time reading something fun

    ~got all 4 kids off to school
    ~started dinner in the crockpot
    ~started load 1 (of 3) of laundry
    ~loaded the dishwasher
    ~made the bed
    ~had my coffee & breakfast
    ~taken the dogs out
    ~fed the dogs

    Still need to:
    ~vacuum the downstairs
    ~run the dishwasher
    ~hang out the laundry
    ~wash two more loads (and hang out)
    ~shower & dress
    ~blog
    ~pick up the kids from school
    ~go to work at 4pm
