Actually Manic Monday sounds pretty good. I've been looking for our BBQ warranty and can't find it
Things to do today. Housework pretty much everything.
Son starts 2 a day football practices so run him back and forth.
We are getting a Dollar Tree store nearby. I think it is supposed to open in September. Does anyone have any experience shopping at Dollar Tree? I'm anxious to go there.
marcimae
Happy Monday
Good morning!! Its not going to be a Manic Monday for me, its gonna be nice and quiet, after this weekend I NEED one !!!!!
Make my weekly unemployment trip
Go to Rite Aid,, razors on sale.
Figure out what to make for dinner.
Clean house after an inpromptu party Sturday night
Marcimae: We have a Dollar Tree, and I really like it. Ours has some food, and the spices there are great. I get onion powder there for $1, which is much more expensive at the store. They have pasta 2/$1. Our store carries lots of candles and lots of household, beauty, etc. I guess it is like other stores. You can get great deals there, but you have to watch. Have fun shopping there!
My day today:
Laundry (one load done and on the line)
Wash winter jackets and get them on the line (they are washing now and will soon be ready to hang on the line.
Vacuum
Sweep
Clean up basement
Go to grocery store for a few items
Then the unfrugal part of the day; I have to take my daughter school shopping. We did some this weekend, but she is so tiny that finding clothes to fit is hard. So, we are trying again today, as school starts next week.
After dinner is cooked and served, my son has band practice, so we will be taking him there and staying to watch the practice.
- have to bake bread and doing some cookie baking
- need to get my applesauce finished
- need to fold the clothes from yesterday
- need to begin to look at the projects for the coming school year
- need to put away all of my canning from this weekend
Everyone is still sleeping here yet, so I don't usually start working until they are up. Its my quite time on the computer. So its going to be a late start today.
Good morning! I am actually glad it is Monday. I feel so much more “normal” when I wake up, get ready and go to work. I was so lazy and lethargic all weekend. It is nice to be up and doing productive stuff.
Today’s plans are:
Work 7am-4pm
Make dinner
Do dishes
Clip coupons
Spend time with DH
Hope you all have a great day!
B - Coffee, Yogurt, Fruit
L - Mexican!!!! Going out
D - ??? I’ll figure out later

Manic Monday here for me. I have a horrible migraine, and I am due at work in about an hour. If we weren't so short handed I would miss, because I am just not feeling up to dealing with all the aggravation. Wish me luck!
Marcimae, we have a Dollar Tree. I love it! I could spend hours and tons of money in that place. They have food, toys, kitchen stuff, holiday decor, etc. I am sure you will love it.
My list for the day-if I get around to it:
make bed
pick-up
dishes
laundry
take trash out
