    Talking Manic Monday

    Good Morning! It is a rainy day here. Yesterday it was up in the 70's, and now it is cold again with rain. We were given tornado watches last night, but luckily we didn't have anything to come of it.

    I have to work today, but before I go, I am going to clean this house from top to bottom. I have tons of laundry to do, and cleaning that just can't wait. I also, have a few phone calls to make, and some mail sorting to get to.

    Today should be frugal. $14 is what I am expecting to spend. Not bad for Monday.

    Have a wonderful day!

    Red sky in morning, sailor's warning-that's what we have today! Guess we're in for some thunderstorms, too. I know Delaware is under a tornado watch.

    Today is a work day for me, 9-2. Tonight I have a mystery shop at Friendly's, so that takes care of dinner!

    2 loads laundry-started
    dishes-DONE
    feed and dress Courtney
    make bed
    get ready for work-hair and makeup
    drop Courtney off at mom's
    work
    pick Courtney up
    more laundry and cleaning up
    dinner at Friendly's

    Have a wonderful day!

    Good morning everyone!

    It is also going to be a rainy, if not very cloudy day here in the big apple. With temps going into the seventies, I'm hoping that we can hit the park for a bit before the rain comes in.

    I have a very busy day of cleaning and cooking. I'm going to bake some brownies, and roast a chicken for dinner. I'm also going to do some laundry. Keeping busy is my goal today.
    No money spent would be another great goal to keep!

    Have a great day everyone!

    Good Morning. It is Monday Back to work.

    However, Starbucks has gingerbread latte’s again!

    I got a lot accomplished yesterday. I did laundry, cleaned the house, organized all my holiday decorations, cleaned off the desk in the office, and went shopping.

    Today I have to work, go to a doctor appointment, then make dinner. That is about it!

    Have a great day!

    Good Morning! DH has duty today so he is at work doing a watch. He works from 7-3. The kids and I are still sick with nasty colds. Today looks a little like this:

    Lay around since we are sick!
    Go look for pinecones later if we feel better
    Direct TV will be here between 1-4 to install our new equipment.


    B- Eggos
    L- Turkey sandwiches
    D- ??

    Debbie: I just wanted to say that I had the same problem with my gall bladder when I was pg and I had it out after I had the baby. I also have a friend who had to have hers our during her pregnancy. Apparantly it can be serious but I am sure they told you all about it. Good luck!

    Today dh stayed home from work (which is going to be kind of typical for a while until they stop making him go to morning meetings at 7am)

    I got done today:

    About 5 loads of laundry
    1 load of dishes
    Tanned
    Went to Ralphs, Target and Albertsons
    did yoga, lifted weights
    cooked dinner from scratch
    Cleaned half the bathroom
    Took out trash
    Went to goodwill (found an adorable gymboree denim dress for ayla for 2$!)
    Tried to give goodwill bags of stuff but they were FULL and turning people away
    Went to Big lots for laundry detergent
    Did pinecone survey
    surfed online
    and the best part playing with Ayla

    I still need to work out for half an hour then spend cuddle time with dh

    {Debbie, my sister is in her first year in college and just had her gallbladder out recently, my prayers are with you..her recovery was longer and rougher than we were told ..I hope they can fix whatever problem she has, and soon }

    Breakfast: cereal/banana/apple slices
    Lunch: grands biscuit/turkey sandwhich
    Dinner: Fried zuchhini, grilled eggplant, with melted mozzerella and provolne, basil, and grilled onions, Mint N Chip ice cream
