Another cool, cloudy day.

One load of laundry...

I'm doing my Flylady and still cleaning in the kitchen....wiping out cupboards, and re-organizing. Also whatever Kelly's mission is today...aha...scrubbing off large kitchen appliances. Anyway....I still haven't finished dusting and vacuuming the house this week either (weekly blessing).

Fairly easy dinner--red beans and rice, so it's crockpot time.

Also should walk the dog. She and I both need it.

Our dinner is in the crock pot too and now that the girls are almost done with their morning studies I am ready to do some meal planning. My goal is to only need fruit/veggies for the next few weeks. Hopefully I'll be able to pull it off. Would love to use up what we have and save money for our move in May.

I've had two very loooong days and early am's - I feel like I'm on a caffeine rush

Today I've already: did the dishwasher thing, roomba thing, took DF to the hospital for therapy, dropped him at work, picked up a few grocery items, picked up a few other needed items from 'shops' not a big box store/mall which would be easier but they don't carry what I'm looking for *sigh*, dropped 3 bags at goodwill, returned empty beer bottles (pocketed the change of course!) and bought more beer for DF, paid bills online, did the lunch & clean up thing and finally sat down to watch 1 show off the PVR.

I still need to: go to the pharmacy to pick up medications, run dad to Home Depot, figure out if laundry needs to be done, help dad with dinner (ribs - yum!), pack DF's lunch for tomorrow, pick up DF and um - oh yeah, crash LOL

Cooking a turkey I bought dead cheap after Christmas
Got movies from the library for tomorrow's predicted rain. It's our spring break this week so need to keep the hordes civil.

Slept late since I spent 12 hours at the hospital yesterday with DH. Fixed breakfast, went to bank and post office for dh. Helped him with his bath and did a load of laundry. Going to do some baking this afternoon for the weekend since all the kids will be home building a wooden playset for the grandkids in the backyard.
