    Default Today is the Day!!

    Today I am going all out!! I have already started baking my muffins to freeze. I bought a 5 pound box from work for $8.90!!! It is going to make about 7-8 dozen, compared to the almost dozen I get out of the bag mixes from the store. So I am saving about $4.00, by getting the big box. I am also going to make cookies today, so that I can freeze them too. I only have today to do it, since my next day off isn't until next Tuesday. I also want to get laundry done, and clean my house!!! So we'll see how far I get, remember I also have my 2 year old and 7 month old home with me today, because I think its stupid to pay for daycare when I am not even at work!!! I'll let you know how things go!!

    Good luck, I hope you can get it all done without the kids undoing it all for you as you go along.

    Well, a quick update, I have the muffins done, 6 dozen are in the freezer and 1 dozen is on the counter to be eaten now. I got about half of the kitchen/dining room cleaned still working on it. I only have 1 load of laundry done, but I am working on that too!!! I did get supper started for tonight though, so plus there!! Off to do more!!

    You are doing great! I bet those muffins are yummy! It will be nice to know they are in the freezer when you want more.

    Good luck. I'm sure you'll get it worked out.

    well, I didn't get to much else done. The muffins, and the kitchen/dining room are both done, the laundry only had three loads completed, but oh well. I did get to play outside with my son and baby, it is finally nice out, so we took advantage of it. I guess spending time with your kids is always better than doing work right!!! Oh, well, the day didn't go as planned, but there is always other days. I hope everyone else had a good day, and got what they wanted done.
