Talking Thrifty Thursday

Good morning! Up early today, DH delights in making noise to wake the baby up at 5 a.m. DD's are gone and Courtney is watching Barney. My last post here for the a.m. so I can get something done around here.

Make bed *DONE
feed and change Courtney *DONE
pay bills and mail *DONE
balance checkbook *DONE
box up DH matchbox-they are STILL on the entertainment center
bag up newspapers *DONE
finish clipping coupons *DONE
dust LR after DH stuff packed up
clean up ebay books *DONE
take pictures for ebay *DONE
try to list auctions *DONE
plan dinner-work tonight

I have to work tomorrow too 9-5. That will KILL me. I am so not used to that. One of the girls had sinus surgery yesterday, so I have to cover her hours. I really don't want any extra hours, but I took off Halloween, so that will make up for it.

Have a wonderful day ladies! I know I will, DH is FINALLY STARTING TO FEEL BETTER!

I think I should start posting to this thread. I have had no motivation to get things done lately and if all of you know what I need to accomplish for the day then it might help. My kiddos only have a half day at school so I need to get to work on my list for the day.

Make out a deep cleaning list for the holidays (just found the grand plan yesterday so I need to revamp it to fit in with what time I have left)
make pizza cxrust for dinner
Laundry I am so behind
parent teacher coferences at 1:45-2:30
hand out fundraisers and collect money until 5:00

Today I must fight with Tab again to eat and drink something. Threats of going back to the hospital have no effect on her. My house looks like a small tornado went through it so I MUST clean !

Looks like it may be a rainy Thursday here too.

Tonight I am hosting a gathering at my house for a group that
I belong to so I need to finish final prep for that.

House is in order so I just need to go to grocery & that's about
it.

Have a great day.

Today is half way over, but I'll post anyway.

Currently in process of a promotion and raise at work! Yipee!! Should know the final stuff next week or so.

I have old stuff in the fridge that I need to tackle and throw away! I get a little gung-ho and defrost a bunch of stuff and then forget about it! Oops!

I also have a pile of inserts to clip coupons from. I always seem to put this off when I don't need groceries right away.

Other than that, not much happening with me. I am still enjoying my garage sale and Goodwill clothes that look brand new! I'm sure everyone at work is wondering how I afforded to go buy all these new things. LOL (they don't need to know the blouse was only $1)

Hi everyone!
Still nursing my tooth here.

I had a mystery shop today. Got that done.

I still need to do some laundry.

Hope you all had a good day.

Lately I have been watching some decorating shows and have come up with some real neat ideas for my new place and today I made a coffee table
I also finished laundry
cleaned kitchen
washed dishes
put dishes away
re-arranged things on top of my refrigerator
put some ucalyptus {sp??} and added it to a vase with some glass marbles & put it on top of my medicine cabinet (it really looks good with my color theme in the bathroom}
took some dried wheat & willow wrapped some lace around it & hung it on my door with my welcome sign that I painted
and now I have to take my garbage can to the curb since tomorrow is garbage day.
