    You ladies beat me, I was still checking out the new posts! Got up early today, so I'm on a roll in here. Ditto that DH's make the house a wreck when they are home for 4 days! I spent the first 15 minutes of my day hanging up all the shirts he tried on and took off, then left on the bed! He's worse then a teenager.

    So far I have:

    Hung up DH's clothes
    washed 3 loads of laundry, hung out one, one in the dryer, and one in the washer in limbo.
    Fed, bathed and changed Courtney
    Changed Courtney's sheets
    Made breakfast (it's gonna snow!)
    made bed
    watered plants on the deck
    put away yesterday's laundry

    To do's for today:

    mail out mystery shop receipts
    mystery shop for lunch with DD's
    make VBS shirt-it starts tonight!!!!
    water rest of plants
    finish dishes
    get back on flylady wagon
    plan dinner-this is hard to do between VBS and DH's softball games!
    DH friend is supposed to power wash our house today.

    I have more, but I don't want to overwhelm myself. There's always tomorrow!

    Have a great Monday!

    Breakfast: French Toast and tea
    Lunch: Mystery shop
    Dinner: maybe spaghetti

    Dh is home today and he let me sleep in. So far I have done my "everyday" chores, pick up toys, clean the kitchen, start laundry, etc.

    Dh took down this horrible floor to ceiling shelf that was in the dining room this morning.

    The boys are taking there naps and dd and dh are at Walmart buying a few last minute things for our remodel. So while I had the chance I got my workout in for the day. I did a 40 minute step tape with 2 lb hand weights. My arms are dragging, but they feel good. I have exercised 6 days a week for the past 4.5 weeks and I am starting to see some progress. My arms and legs are getting more toned and I have lost several inches.

    This afternoon dh is going to spackle some nail wholes in the living room and dining room. I am going to start cleaning the walls, assemble supper (chicken enchilladas) and pay bills.

    This evening I am going to pick green beans.

    Have a great frugal day everyone!

    Today was MANIAC MONDAY! Can you tell? I couldn't post until 6:45pm! LOL

    Work was so busy today. I took Friday off so I had a lot of work to do. However, my day flew by so that was nice. Just finished dinner (pork chops, rice, brocolli) and DH wants to go to Wal-mart for fishing supplies.

    Hopefully tomorrow will be easier and SLOWER!

    Hope you all had a great day! See you tomorrow!
