Got DH up and about. Have to get DS up since he has to be to work at 8. DD has an ortho appt this morning. Since I will be off Tues- Thurs I am going to avoid housework other than the normal dishes and such.

Well, it is the first day of Spring Break, and the weather calls for 100% rain with thunder and lightning. Soooo... my visions of yardwork and playing in the stream with the kids is out the window.

I'm going to get dinner started and then we'll get dressed and head to the mall. Dd needs a haircut. I do the boys and dh's hair, but I don't mess with dd's or my hair. Kidzcutz is $20 and we always get everyone a cookie at Mrs. Field's after the haircut. Our mall also has an indoor play area, that is free, so I'll let them climb and play for awhile. I also have a 50% off coupon at Old Navy that I got, so I'm going to go see if there is anything there that I might like.

I also plan on filling up another trash bag from the office closet and freecycling some things. Not planning on working too hard today, as you can see.

I deserve this break!

I have a day full of meetings starting from 9:00 until 4:00. When I get home my Dad is treating me to chinese take out for dinner tonight. I had an absolutely insane weekend and totally cleaned the house so there is really nothing for me to do there tonight. I plan to work on my parents taxes and then work on my coupon clipping. (which I am way behind on at this point)

Boy did I have a hard time getting up this morning. The low was around 32 last night here in N. Tx and my bed was so good and warm!
Packed my lunch last night and ran off and forgot it this morning.Arrgh!!!
When I get off this afternoon I am going to babysit my Grandaughters and then go home and try to finish laundry.
Will watch Jane Velez-Mitchell and Nancy Grace and then read somemore of the 1st book in my Reading Challenge.

Woke up to about 8" of snow with more coming down. Husband left for another business trip in Ohio. The kids are off for spring break. We all might just veg and read. The driveway needs shoveling maybe it will melt (ha,ha,ha).

**Palooka** · 04-06-2009, 01:58 PM

I woke up at 5 am and made bread, mopped kitchen floor, cleaned and moved book shelf, got some beans soaking, one load of laundry done, vaccumed, and cleaned hallway, menu planned a little and put some stuff in storage. Been in a spring cleaning mood.

Taking a break now. Just have to cook dinner and give the little one a bath and relax the rest of the night.

**LucyOctopus** · 04-06-2009, 04:26 PM

Cloudy and a bit windy here today. I had one meeting and one assignment to write up in the course of the day, so all in all it was decent. SO got hungry late afternoon so we went for a sandwich and broke the ban. Just means I will have to pack bigger lunches. I wish I could stop being so lazy and just STUDY for this graduate school test.

Tonight we are making minestrone soup for dinner and for part of lunch tomorrow. Hopefully we can stretch it out to tomorrow's dinner, too.

Today it was major hot in Cali. Worked for 8 hours, came home, stopped off at the liquor store to get a Sunday paper, clip coupons and about to start washing clothes.

It was so cold and windy. We even had a few snow flurries. I had such a busy day. Some of the bags I had over my flowers blew all over the yard and I had to get them picked up. I did my workout and the morning things, then I had a hair appointment. I did some grocery shopping, dropped off some cleaning and took my car to have it serviced. I just did an afternoon workout at home with the weights, as I did not want to go back out.Supper, bath, paid bills, relaxing with my final cup of tea. Nighty night. Hope you had a good one.
