-work this morning until around noon

Off to work here! Harrah!!!
Have a five hour Joe Boxer Flip to do a Kmart. Move boxers from point A to point B and those at point B to point A. Sounds as dumb as it is but they are paying me to do it so who am I to question~Just happy to have a job to go and do.
This evening have freecycle tv to pick up for my mother in law and plan to work on my quilt somemore. Having a hard time staying on track ready to head off on another project. MUST FINISH First!!!

It is warm here this morning and the sun is peeking out.Should be a nice day. I have alot of errands , and it will not be that frugal. I have finished my workout and need to cook some rolled oats and fruit for breakfast. Then do pet chores, linens and a quick house skim. I have to drop off some cleaning, go to the bank and drop the dogs off at the groomers for their baths.(They have been enjoying rolling in the mud. And I suspect a few other things.)Then I have a hair appointment, need to go to the grocery store, and later this afternoon will get the dogs. I have a friend stopping by after her work to bike. Supper, cleanup and resting this evening. We Stepford Wives are busy, busy, busy!LOL.Have a good one!

Today is a pretty normal day for me. I am at work until 4:00 then I will head home and put dinner in the oven. After I clean up from dinner I need to straighten the living/dining area. I will also sweep and mop the hardwood floors. (I didn't get to this like I wanted to yesterday) I will crash at 8:00 when Dancing with the Stars comes on.

- seal and store leftover garden seeds
