Ok, so I'm not feeling creative today to name the day. lol
Today, I haven't done much besides dressing the kids and feeding them.
Need to [x] clean the kitchen, haul loads of laundry up two flights of stairs, [x]clean the computer room, [x]clean the family room, walk by the play room and dream I have the motivation today to pick it up, [x]sweep the hardwoods, hit the grocery store tonight, [x]bake some cookies the kids asked for, [x]and think of something for dinner. (decided on chicken...there's a surprise NOT) [x]I should do sheets today too. *edited to add...[x]add the spare room now..just walked by and the kids have dumped tons of toys out of a tote, so later we all need to do a little "clean up time". lol
Then just the usual [x]lunches, [x]snacks, and [x]playtime with the kids. Baths later for them after dinner.
My day started with dazey tree guys taking down a tree and mulching branches at 7am. grrr It's a bit much starting at 7am.
I need more coffee.

I had a rough night....so I am getting a late start....after I take my shower and get dressed I need to :
~ make my bed
~ vac the bedroom
~ clean out the fridge( if you don't here from me, send out the dogs
~ clean the rest of the kitchen
~ dust dining and living room
~ sweep and wash both floors
~ make dinner (something simple probably brats, mac and cheese and a vege)
~ if I am still standing after all this, work an some Christmas ornaments and address Christmas cards
Tonight......Do laundry and clean the kitchen (I didn't get around to the laundry last night since the car problems kept us stuck in town until after 9)
I got up at 5h30 to wake up Mathieu for school and to my suprise I felt enough energy to stay up! I usually go back to bed until 7h00, but now I thought also Mathieu would like the company....He's finiding it so hard to ge t up every morning so early for school...
So far I did the breakfast dishes, 2 loads of laundry and I am SO happy becuase I finally had the courage to clean under our kitchen cabinet! This is something I hate doing....
Today I have will be:
*Taking a shower this morning
*Doing more laundry
*Making a lasagna for supper
*Taking Mathieu shopping for some winter clothes this afternoon.
(he doesn't even have a winter coat yet! )
Later after supper:
*do homework with Patrick
*Pierre will do homework with Daniel
*Make sure Francois and Mathieu do the dishes
*Go to bed early.
LOL if I had started this, it would have been called Terrible Tuesday. I'm trying to make it "Terrific Tuesday" instead though.
I need to do lots of stuff today, but here is what I hope to get accomplised (realistically):
~make banana bread for T. Day *done (used an egg replacement)
~walk to K's school to pick up cookie dough from fundraiser*done
~work on my father's wallhanging for Christmas
~clean sewing room...it's a disaster area now
~take Kathryn to Brownies
~brave the grocery store when Dave gets home with the car
~2 loads of laundry from start to finish
Not on the list, but I also cleaned the oven, made cookies, cleaned the living room, and vacuumed the stairs to the 2nd level.

Today has been one of those days where I am so tired I can barely stand. My dd had to go to Children's Hospital this morning for an EEG. So, she went with dh to work this morning around 4:30, because she had to be sleep deprived, she was up till 11pm last night, which meant dd#2 was as well, since they share a room. My ds slept for 13 hours last night, but is still somewhat tired today.
My list for today is:
~Take dd to hospital appt (done)
~Do laundry(in progress)
~Cook ham and slice for Thurs.
~Finish bday cards
~Start a scrapbook layout
~Wrap dd #2's Christmas presents
I spent most of yesterday cleaning the house and getting errands taken care of, I'm glad now, because I have so little energy today.

Another day that didn't go as planned...Started feeling ill lastnight and woke up this morning at 5:30 totally sick. Was suppose to be at work today at 9 am but I knew at 530 that I wasn't going to make it so I called in. Went back to bed got up at 7 to get Brett up and ready to go to school, checked on Brittany and she was still sick too. 8 am rolled around and made a call to the dr for an appt for me and Brit. Went back to bed again got up again at 1030 started working on homework that I needed to catch up on. Got a shower, got Britt up, made bed and we headed for the dr. After returned the movie we rented and came back home. God bless mom she volunteered to pick Brett up from school and go to WM to pick up our prescriptions and bring them all to me. Sick or not still determined to get something done, I spent the day getting caught up on homework. Got 5 papers done today, got part of one group project done, still have a 6-7 pg essay to write, 2 pg essay to write and two group projects. I did get the windows in my room and the window in Bretts room taped off in plastic so that they don't leak. Other than the above I have sat around coughing, moaning and wiping my nose, I don't get sick often but when I do I get really sick
Hope everyone had a great day
