    Today I'll be going to work and later touching up some areas with paint in the front bedroom. Chores will be laundry, vacuuming, and cleaning the kitchen. I'll eat lunch and dinner at home, so this will be a no-spend day. How about y'all?

    I'm doing laundry and ironing today. I have also have to pickup the house and sweep the floors. My girlfriends are treating me to a birthday dinner tonight. Have a good day everyone.

    Today I am going to be doing a bunch of cooking/baking for our upcoming 10 day trip. We have to bring food for camping stuff, and also a 5 year renioun with some old friends.

    I already made a batch of homemade yogurt (sweetened with sugar and Lime Jello), have plans for homemade granola bars (made with Crisp Rice cereal, almonds, choc chips, p butter) to pack our Lunch for the way down instead of stop at fast food. (yay!) We plan to also do some pretzels, cheese curls, and on-sale salami/cheese sandwiches.

    I also purchased some Italian Sausage at the grocery store today and cooked it up and put in bags to make frozen personal pizzas for kids school lunches later!

    Laundry--need to do laundry always with 4 kids!

    First day of school for teachers today - stopped by the pool on the way home to get in my exercising.

    Just popped one wash load into the dryer and am ready to start another load. lots of paperwork to get started on tonight.
