    It is raining here in eastern NC, so looks like I will be hanging out inside with my 2 yr old today. My older 3 kids are at school, hubby is at work. My plan today was to go through the stuff in my closet and hopefully discover that I can get rid of most of it. We moved into this house in June and my closet is full of boxes we never unpacked, so my thinking is whatever is in there I must not really need. But need to seperate for trash, donate, sell. Though now that it is raining, I would prefer to cuddle in a blanket and watch a movie.

    I have the Monday Blaas ~ it's cold & I'm tempted to crawl back into bed -
    -big J is off to school already - little j is still sleeping

    need to do:
    - laundry
    - make the beds
    - go to grocery store (need dog food & milk)
    - clean J&j's bathroom

    If I can get that done, I'll be happy with the day.

    It is yucky here this morning, but is supposed to clear up a little later today. We start our 'outside' classes this week, with Spanish class today.

    ~ Get everyone dressed - picked out their clothes last night we will see how that goes (7 yr old does not generally like my suggestions)
    ~ 2 loads of laundry
    ~ Read with girls and have dd7 finish her math this am, finish rest of lessons after lunch
    ~ Go to class
    ~ Finish organizing ecology/environment unit and request books from library
    ~ Bank
    ~ Bake something 'sweet' - girls are complaining about lack of snack food

    Good morning!
    It's still pretty warm (47* at 7am) albeit wet & cloudy here. Our forecast says the warm temps are coming to an end, so I'm going to enjoy it while I can...open up the doors & get some fresh air in this house before it's time to batten down the hatches again.

    I don't have anywhere to go today. No errands & no money to spend so I'm staying home

    I need to:
    ~load & run the dishwasher
    ~make the bed
    ~clean up the kitchen
    ~sweep
    ~wash, dry, fold, put away laundry
    ~pick up living room
    ~put a clean tablecloth on the dining room table
    ~work out (no legs today though, they are so freaking sore)
    ~figure out what to make for dinner

    Sunny but cold here at 32. SHould get into the 60s though.

    Put out the trash and massive recycling pile. The last two Mondays have been holidays and I missed the extra pickup on Wednesday so my pile is pretty significant
    Also caught sight of the sun reflecting in the dirty bathroom mirror so that needs to be cleaned
    Clean stovetop
    Figure out what is for dinner-pickings are getting slim and I'm not shopping again until Friday
    Make daughter's bed
    Mop kitchen floor - but I want to wait until youngest is at school tomorrow
    Get the christmas decoration boxes I can carry into the attic - garage will be so much bigger without all the boxes and recycling!

    I've got a lot to do today before my parents and sisters come over tonight to watch the OHIO STATE game.

    Yesterday I had great plans for finishing off the mountain of laundry and packing up the last of the Christmas stuff.... it didn't happen. DS was cranky all day (teething I think) and wouldn't be left alone more than half an hour at a time. He was awake most of the day, which is unusual, but at least he slept most of the night. So, in between the rocking and trying to comfort him, I didn't get much done other than basic household stuff.

    That means that my list for today is long... but I've just finished my coffee and I'm feeling pretty motivated. I think I'll just put DS in the sling and just keep moving today!

    I have to:
    ~ make & bake meatballs, and put them in the crockpot around 4pm for supper
    ~ finish the laundry mountain
    ~ clean two bathrooms
    ~ finish packing up the last of the Christmas stuff in the new tubs & move them to the basement (Christmas stuff is currently stored upstairs, I'm rearranging things)
    ~ move the big Christmas tree to the basement storage area
    ~ run the dishwasher.... forgot to run it after I loaded it last night so now I have to run it in between loads of laundry
    ~ give both kids their baths
    ~ shine my sink

    I'd also like to write a couple of letters, update my blogs, and read some more of my new book, but we'll see if there's time for that. I need to get off of the computer and get moving!

    Happy Monday, everyone!
