    Default Miserly Monday, 7/26/10

    Good morning!
    Well, after a sweltering day yesterday, it should only be up to 85 or so today.

    I plan on doing a lot of watering outside today, as well as finally cleaning out vehicles. I still have about 4 loads of laundry to wash and put away, as well.

    Then I will be baking with my oldest dd to get ready for her 4H fair entries for Wednesday. The last thing I want to be doing in the middle of summer! lol

    If I am super productive, then I may take the kids in to the swimming pool this afternoon for a nice break.

    Have a great day, everyone!

    I need to get the house back together, big-time. DH and I dropped the kids off at grandma and grandpa's this weekend and we didn't clean or pick up or anything! So the house is a pigsty.

    I really need to meal plan.

    I need to clean out the car - not sure if I'll get to this one, but it's on the list.

    I work on my laundry and things that will heat up the house in the evening.. I clean up before I go to bed, so when I get up the house is clean.. During the heat of the day, I can just relax..

    I went to work 8-5, then found a cute floral arrangement @ Goodwill for $4 (original price on the bottom said $24.99 -- score!), and got some hamburger buns, frozen fries, and coffee to get us through the major meals this week. DH has to eat dinner at meetings 2x this week, and I already had tilapia, chicken, ground turkey, canned soup, and sandwich fixings. I folded some clothes, made burgers, and then I painted the front bedroom. I am POOPED. Tomorrow I'll feel like a truck hit me, but tonight I am really happy and adrenalized (is that a word?).

    Just trying to keep on keeping on!
