    this morning, I'm playing on frugalvillage, delaying the inevitable house chores...lol

    Then going to tutor this afternoon, then substitute as a teacher's aide for an after-school program.

    Coming home, eating dinner then spending time on myself. AKA PLUCKING the jungle on my face known as my eyebrows...lol

    I've been so busy working all week long that i'm taking it easy today!

    I am still working on my coffee.
    Have taken the dog out.
    Dh and 3 kids off to school.
    Waiting for 3 yr old to wake up.
    A book I requested came in at the library so need to pick that up and get a few things from the grocery store.
    2 essays to finish up, one about poverty and education, and one about how to deal with gas prices.
    emailed a person on craigslist about a house to rent. We planned on finding another rental this summer, but got looking on their last night, and found one $50 less then what we pay now. Has 4 bedrooms, 2 car garage, inground pool and a pool house. Is in the country with only 3 other houses on the road it is on. So keeping fingers crossed we can get it.

    ~Pick DD up after her tests (around 12:30)

    ~Help DS with his lessons.

    ~Oversee the kids as they do their chores (clean out rabbit cage, sweep house, trash out, do dishes, fold laundry, clean bedrooms - including changing bedsheets).

    ~Take DS and DD to their Friday afternoon/night hang out at around 3:00. Pick them up at 6:30 from there and drop them off at the bowling alley (their youth group has a get together there tonight). Then pick them up from the bowling alley at 9:00 and drop back off at the game center (the hang-out place). Finally, pick them up around mid-night or 12:30.

    ~Fix something portable for dinner - meaning I can take it in the car and let the kids eat it as we take them to the bowling alley. They already spend about $20 each every Friday night going out and both would rather not spend any more of their own money on eating out when they know mom will bring them (and their friends) food.

    ~Really not a whole lot more on my list for today. I may go to Hobby Lobby since my mom gave me my allowance yesterday. Yep, been married almost 16 years, 34 years old, financial stable, mom of two teens and my mommy still gives me an allownace . Seriously, she has me run a few errands for her every other Thursday and she insists on giving me money for it. She calls it my allowance.

    I've already:
    ~gotten dd off to school (midterms)
    ~had breakfast & coffee

    Still need to:
    ~pick dd up from her test (10am)
    ~workout, thinking about trying pilates today
    ~do a couple loads of laundry
    ~fold & put away the laundry that got done yesterday
    ~vacuum downstairs
    ~pick up the mudroom

    The kids have the day off from school today, so I don't have to go pick them up. I may start the woodstove a little earlier than usual (usual is about 4pm). Gotta figure out what to make for dinner.

    And I think we may watch a scary move this afternoon...

    Started the day off sending dh off on a day of skiing, meeting up at Greek Peak with ds who will be snowboarding. My tummy was flip flopping so went back to bed & feel better now.
    Today will be spent running to the po & quickstore for milk then making chili for dinner if I continue to feel better. Tomorrow is going to be a mega cleaning so I'm resting up.
    Wishing you all a good day with happy tummys for all.

    Today I need to:
    >do laundry
    >clean kitchen
    >vacuum
    >work for a few hours
    >cook dinner

    I may also go to the store. I am fighting a cold, but really need to get of the house. I have been couped up all week and my DH will have the car all day tomorrow, so this maybe my only time to get out.
