    Default Wonderful Wednesday 5/13

    Good morning everyone. It is a rainy day here but the birds are singing and the coffee is hot so I am great.

    Made muffins and cut coupons already. Have to work later. What is everyone up to today?

    I have to work from 9-2. So getting the kids ready for school and myself for work right now. Then I'll be coming home to do some laundry and some picking up around the house. Then the boys and I are going to the YMCA, so I can work out and they can play. After that, we will head home for dinner, baths and bed time...And I hope to squeeze some reading in there somewhere!

    Good morning

    It's supposed to be a beautiful day today. It really lifts my mood when it's nice outside.

    General housekeeping & crafting on the agenda for today:


    • wash dishes I really miss my d/w
    • clean kitchen
    • sweep & Swiffer kitchen
    • sweep & Swiffer bathroom
    • empty trash in house and take to curb *DONE*
    • bring recycling to curb *DONE*
    • bring large trash bag full of clothing to car to bring to Goodwill on next trip out there
    • vacuum living room
    • vacuum stairs

    Hopefully I'll also have the time & motivation to:


    • WATP 3 or 4 mile *DONE--4 mile express :woohoo: )
    • work on L's quilt
    • work on L's pj's

    and then I need to pick up Lauren from school at 2:15 and pick up Kathryn from her friend's house around 6:00

    Have a good day everyone.

    Good Morning
    I have already gone for a walk with DD and the dog, got DD ready and off to school and got the dishes done, started some laundry to hang on the line.
    I still have to do some tidying, clean the bathroom and get ready for work. Walk 40 mins to work. Then come home and see what needs to be done, and get supper ready. Hmmmmm maybe I will put something in the crock pot before I go to work?
    Have a good day all.

    DH is up and off to work. The kids are all up. It is a catching up housework/relax day for us. I already switched out dishes, sorted clothes to be washed, moved the branches from the back yard that were blown down last night, and cheked the sales papers.
    Still need to cycle through all the laundry, windex the glass/mirrors in the house, wipe down walls, sweep out the garage, try to get the bell pepper and tomato plants in the ground (weather permitting) and start the beets and par-cel plants.

    Default Nice day here too!

    It's sunny and in the 70's in Buffalo, and a beautiful day here too! Contrary to what some people think, it does NOT always snow in Buffalo, NY!

    Much to do here always. But for frugalness, I'm planning to do a food inventory, and menu planning today. At least, I HOPE I can get to it.

    Happy Wednesday everyone!

    This morning I got the kids up and off to school. Then I talked dh into loading up our dogs and we took them up the park where I work for a nice long walk. It was so nice! I feel so much better since I've started walking and it's nice to have a sunny day for a change so I could get outside!

    Then we went to my inlaws to see their new camper and borrow their garden tiller. Came home and put a couple of loads of laundry on the line. Then I baked chocolate cupcakes for here and made no bake cookies to take to work with me tomorrow.

    I still have to get dinner, do dishes and then it's off to bed to watch Dog the Bounty Hunter! Whoo hoo!

    I start full time at work tomorrow and my schedule is nuts this first week. I work 8-4 tomorrow, 10-6 Friday, 1-9 Saturday, 10-6 Sunday and Monday. I will be glad when next week comes around and I'm on my normal schedule!

    It is hot and humid and it might storm later.

    So far I did a 30min workout, shower, laundry, paid some bills and now I am relaxing for a few. Just have to make dinner later and clean the kitchen floor and watch American Idol.

    I started out the day happy because I have the day off and planned on getting lots of housework done, pay bills, and do some reading. But did that happen? Noooooooo. My fiancee had to be at work at 11am. He had been gone maybe 1/2 hour and the phone rings and of course it's him and he wants me to meet him at lunch and bring in a car parts book(from work)so he can get the part #'s he needs to order parts for his brother. Which means I take a shower, get dressed, forget doing housework and blow 3 of my challenges.So I ran the errand and figured I might as well get something out of it. I spent $34.88 on clothes at Goodwill.
    Now I'm doing my clothes and fixing dinner.... maybe.
