    Smile Thursday - What are you doing?

    Good Morning All

    I seem to enjoy posting my daily duties, it helps me be accountable and gets things done around here and lately I have been slacking. The temp is sitting at about freezing mark here and its mild. We're supposed to get a deep freeze starting tomorrow - I think this was the cold front coming from the mid west??? Oh well - I have a parka and mittens Bring it on!!!

    Today I have done: one more load of laundry (one/day it seems!) this one is towels! Paid bills online, purged one small nook of clutter or a pile of it, Febreezed my truck and emptied the garbage (from the garbage can in my truck).

    After work I will: wash my bedsheets, try to purge s'more, swim and pack my bag for my weekend Oh and try to read!!! I have forgotten how much I enjoy it!

    I still have a short while to declutter/sort/purge until I have to get ready for work and I have 'September' playing on my computer - on repeat! Yeah baby!! Motivate me!!! *sings 'Do you remember....*

    What are y'all doing for today?
    2012: The Year Of The Purge!

    Well so far I've mixed the grain, run the dogs and gotten hubby off to work Trust me getting hubby out the door is NOT an easy task, he always thinks of that last thing to do/talk about lol Hmmm, think he'd rather stay home?

    Right now I'm cruising the forum and getting my daily Mellencamp fix on the stereo, glad I don't have neighbors, they'd be beating on the walls!

    Today I AM GOING TO update my paypal and ebay accounts so I can get my rear back in gear SELLING, I've been really putting it off.

    Also have to:

    Feed all critters
    finish up dishes
    vacuum
    laundry
    and
    and
    and.....

    Yes, this week flew by.............

    I work from 8-5 today. So far I've folded a load of laundry that I didn't do last night. I took a shower, got semi-dressed and dried my hair. Now I'm sitting with my coffee. Scott is in the shower. I have to finish dressing, eat breakfast and get to work, but I have some time.

    Tonight after work I need to stop for my allergy shot. On my lunchbreak I'm going to start my coursework for the new class I'm taking.

    Making dinner tonight and reading are on my agenda.

    So far: I did a load of laundry and picked up the kitchen, packed lunches.

    Work: meeting w/boss to go over budget I did for a grant proposal (hopefully it's right!)

    Later: pick my son up from BASP, return an Xbox game, stop by grocery store for batteries for smoke detector, return library books, more laundry, make dinner, do homework, baths etc.

    Dh is at work and then has class.. so he won't be home until 9ish... uugghhh. It's been so hard for me to get anything done during the day with the little ones.
    I guess I will try to fold and put away the kids' clothes when dd takes a nap. that is if ds decides he's going to sleep too. he's been wide awake the last few days when she took her nap. I'd like to work on my lab for my class also.

    Tonight after the kids are in bed I will wash bottles and dishes and clean up the kitchen. Maybe get to the bills.

    Well, I have already made DH and DD some breakfast and their lunches. DH is taking DD to class now then he is off to the office.

    DS is still alseep. I am going to go back to bed shortly so I am not waking him up just yet.

    Once DS and I get up he will work on his school lessons while I do a little picking up around the house.

    It is my day to pick up DD from class so I will get her later today.

    Dinner is done - crockpot bbq chicken breasts.

    After dinner the kids have basketball practice until 9:00 and since DH is DD's coach he will be gone as well. That means I will have the evening to scapbook and play tennis on the Wii without anyone laughing at me(we just got the Wii yesterday so I still look silly and am not very good at the interactive games, YET....)

    Have a good day y'all!!

    I am going to work on bedrooms today. The rest of the house is clean and pretty much staying clean...but I haven't touched the bedrooms this week...and well, to keep the rest of the house clean, I keep tending to toss stuff in there! Ha!

    So, I will be decluttering & cleaning from floor to ceiling both bedrooms today. Here is my official list:

    1. Master Bedroom
    2. Kid's Bedroom
    3. Walk the dog (30 minutes)
    4. Play a game with DS
    5. 2 loads of laundry
    6. Dishes

    Those are the highlights of my day!

    dh and i need to get everything all of our things packed up and ready to head back home today.

    we're going out to east LA-ish to visit a cemetery when my grandma says my grandfather is born. I never got a chance to meet him so it'll be kind of nice to visit his grave.

    we're heading back tonight for dallas and then probably going straight to bed LOL
