Well, it's a cool 19 degrees right now...don't know what the high is supposed to be, but it probably won't be 80, LOL.
So far I have:
*Have one load of sheets in the dryer and another in the wash
*Fed all the kids, dressed them and brushed their hair
*Made my bed (will wash our sheets next week)
*Fed all animals
*Cleaned out litter box and took out trash
*Unloaded dishwasher
*Cleaned out fridge a bit and washed some more dishes
I still have to:
*Get a shower
*Remake kids' beds
*Do a little laundry
*Vacuum upstairs
*Grocery (dh is doing that after he gets off work and gets a haircut)
*Maybe go to the library (if not today, tomorrow)
*Try to list some more books on Cathswap (I made $21 yesterday!)
*Figure out what is for dinner
Might be going over to inlaws today (they are going down to Ft. Knox to do some shopping, so we may end up there tomorrow instead).

No snow here. The sun is shining. Not sure what the high is supposed to be though. I have a load of clothes in the laundry. Need to fold the towels I washed and dried yesterday. The hardwood floors need a good vacuuming. And I want to detail clean the half bath and possible the laundry room or the study.

Busy day today!
~
has to work, so he'll be gone from about 1:30 p.m. until goddess knows what time tonight.
~ my mom wants to come over and visit with me for the first time since I moved into my new apartment with
Gahhhh! 
~ Supposed to meet up with a lady from the area to get a filing cabinet from her (freecycle).
~ wanted to get some baking done, pick up a few things (not sure if I have the money for it though) and do some reorganizing and thinking -- I would like to find a place to set up my sewing machine once I get a decent table, but I'm not sure where would be a good place.If you're interested in frugal living, minimalism and and

Good morning. It snowed just a bit this morning, just a snow shower. We are supposed to get high winds though, around 50 mph, so we have a wind advisory in effect. It's 21 degrees out but sunny.
I don't have much on my list today. I've already brought dd to work and have a load of laundry in the washer. I'll probably just "putter" around today. I don't have any plans of doing any heavy housecleaning. I may go on a "treasure hunt" in my house to see what's been hiding & should be put out.
DH is going to bring some wood in the house as our supply in the basement is getting low. He is going to Home Depot & working in the basement tomorrow. We're going to try & get the family finished so it can be used.
That's about it here.
Have a great day all!!

Good morning

It's not snowing here this morning. The sun is shining bright & beautiful (which usually means it's freezing cold out there lol).
I have to work today, but no double shift. The regional manager put the kabash on double shifts on Saturdays
Not the best timing, considering dh's job loss...we can't really afford for me to lose a whole shift like that. Good thing I picked up last night and added Monday & Friday nights starting next week.
Oh well. It is kind of nice not to have to get up and rush off to work first thing.
Before I had to work I need to:
~work out & knit at the same time (knitercise
)
~do a load of laundry
~go to Price Chopper for a couple of loss leaders
~drop dd off to a sleepover

Morning All!
Brrrrr... it's a chilly 9 degrees here right now. I didn't plan on going out today, but my MIL just called and asked me to run a couple of errands for her. Sure.... send me out into the frozen tundra!! LOL! Oh and one of my dogs got loose and ran away 20 minutes ago. I don't know how he can stand this cold. I see him running past the patio door every few minutes. It doesn't do any good to chase him down, he has to come home when HE'S good and ready. Stubborn little turd! LOL! Anyway.... not much planned for today. Hope everyone has a good day..... stay warm.

I'm at work taking a break. Worked evening shift last night, had to be here at 8 this morning, got about 3.5 hours of sleep, the usual when I'm stuck with Fri night/Sat morning. This is the only bad thing about my job.
I'll probably crash when I get home (I think I get off at 4 insted of the usual 6 -- got to go look at the schedule), but with luck I can get a nap and then do some cleaning around the apartment tonight. Or clean out files and shred if I'm too wiped out to get out of a chair.
Plan A for the day? Drink caffeine!Donna
Use It Up:
Lapghans completed: 4/20
Squares in the Someday Box: gotta count them!

BRRR it is COLD and snowy here.

The weather is not motivating me to do much of anything today.
So far I have:
~made the beds
~vacuumed downstairs
~ put shelves in my new antique cabinet
~ put up my new antique milk pitchers that my mom gave me
~ planned a dinner menu for next week and made out a shopping list
~ dusted the living room
~ put away the last remnant odds and ends from the holidays.
Wow! after making this list, I guess I have been a little motivated today.
Stay warm all of our North Easters!

Not too much for today, was going to go to the mall as JcPenny is having their winter clearance sale, but changed my mind on that..will go tomorrow.
Ran the dishwasher, need to empty it.
Fed the animals
Did points on the pc.
Filed out applications to do online transcription...have to wait to hear back from them.
Going to the movies later with free tickets that I have.
Then come home and chill out.
