Today is the beginning of my 4 day weekend. I've done next to nothing

I did start a load of laundry, take dinner out of the freezer, and drive out to pick up a free pet waterer (the kind that cycles fresh water through a spigot...hopefully this will keep my cat out of the sinks

).

I also sorted through 5 boxes/bags of clothes/shoes/toys that my kids have outgrown. I freecycled 4 bags & 1 box and set aside a bag for my sister's boys and a bag for my brother's daughter.

Okay, so maybe I did do quite a bit lol. I also knit a little & I'll knit some more in the van in a few minutes when I pick the kids up from school.

Tonight I'll do a little homework after dinner/baths/kids' homework.

**carlitasway** · 10-05-2007, 02:24 PM

Well, so far I dropped my ds off at school, cleaned the kitchen, went to the park with dd. I should clean some more but I don't want to

**guest002** · 10-05-2007, 02:41 PM

I made it to the thrift shop and consigned some items and donated a large bag full. I've successfully purged!

**Neeley** · 10-05-2007, 03:00 PM

Went to Michael's and dropped DH's CPA certificate off to get matted and framed for Christmas for him. He passed the exam in 1998 and I am finally getting his certificate framed. It cost $228.50 but it will well worth it. It is something he has always wanted done.

DS has football practice but he can only watch tonight - he has a few bruised ribs from a hard hit he took a few days ago at practice. Doctor said by tomorrow he should be healed enough to play in the game. I hope so, he has not been able to do much of anything - even talking has been difficult.

Need to take my truck to Sam's so it can get new tires.

Fix something for dinner.

Find my house key.

**baxjul** · 10-05-2007, 03:14 PM

I only had the before and after school daycare kids today. Until 4:00 when the 7 mo. old comes until 11:30! So, I took a nap this afternoon!

~needto finish dh's laundry

**Missourimom** · 10-05-2007, 03:40 PM

I've just been puttering around the house. My dh has been out of town helping his dad remodel his bathroom and he's coming home for the weekend. I didn't think he'd be home until late tonight. He just called me and said he'll be here in one hour. Ummm....so, I guess I need to whip him up something to eat and scrub the tub and lay out some clean clothes for him. He's been washing under a garden hose for three days (ick) because the shower and bathtub are gone. Poor guy, I feel bad for him. lol.

Later I'll take dd16 to work so she can pick her check up and I'll run into the store and buy some sour cream. I think I'll make an apple coffee cake tomorrow for everyone to enjoy.

Not much going on tonight. Dh and I will probably just cuddle up and watch shows we recorded all week.

I hope you're all having a a great frugal day.
