    We have a welcomed warm front today, was 44 when kids went out for bus this morning, yesterday it was 16. The only thing I have planned today is to clean up the kitchen from breakfast and then spend some time with the store flyers and my coupons and make my meal plan and shopping list.

    It's going to be in the 20s today, but we got 8 hours of snow yesterday, so dd#1 is home from school (second day this week!)

    I am not going anywhere today with lots of snow on the roads, three kids, and pregnant!

    Anyway I have already:
    *Taken the trash out for pickup (not sure if they'll get it today or not)
    *Unloaded the dishwasher
    *Fed and dressed the kids
    *Fed all animals
    *Made the beds
    *Cleaned out litter box
    *Started a load of laundry
    *Got the roast in the crock pot


    Still have to:
    *Finish laundry
    *Vacuum
    *Take a shower/get dressed
    *Fix dinner
    *List some more books for sale on Cathswap
    *Watch 'Lost' tonight (16 brand new episodes starting tonight!)

    If I have time:
    *Read through some Market Day stuff to plan for Cookie Dough sales
    *Do some research for my next Birthline meeting next Monday

    BTW, my interview went great last night--I have been recommended to the store manager for a final interview (by the administrative manager I met with last night).

    It's an odd day schedule-wise in my house--- I'm going in to work this afternoon & evening for several hours to do paperwork. (I usually only work Thurdays & Fridays.)

    So, I'm putting supper in the crockpot and giving everyone baths this morning. I'll do some quick straightening up around the house and that's probably about all I'll have time for, other than meals and bottles.

    It's 41º right now, supposed to be low 50s later. I just wish it would warm up like yesterday, it was almost 70º! At least the boys got to play outside for a little while.

    I'm feeling really good today. I have showered, dressed, hand washed pots and ran the dishwasher. So I don't have much left:

    * Put away laundry from yesterday.
    * empty dishwasher
    * finish cleaning up the living room.
    * vacuum the bedroom.
    * possibly wash another load of clothes.

    But first I have about an hour to surf around the internet.

    Today we are ripping out the closet in one of the small rooms. The closet is too big for the room and a twin bed and dresser just fit in, so this will give her alot more room. Besides she doesn't hang anything anyways she prefers putting it in drawers. After that we will move all of the dd17's stuff into the room. Then the twins stuff can be moved into the bigger room and dd3 can be moved out of our room and into the other small room.

    I had class this morning.
    When I came home, dh told me the crabby neighbor called the police because the snowbank between our driveway and her garage (it's our property up to about 6-10" from her garage....so about 30" of OUR property)...the snow is touching her garage. <--that's pretty much what the policeman said to dh. She's such a witch. This is the same one who continually parked at the bottom of our driveway and blocked us in...then cried foul when we asked her not to block us in. Mind you, we got over three feet of snow in the last 4 days. Where the heck would you like us to put it. I'd like to tell her to 'bend over'
    Idiot.

    Anyway, after class dh & I went to Price Chopper for their loss leaders. Then came home for lunch. I have a TON of laundry to do. I need to work on my 12 page meteorology lab that I've gotten 1 page of done. Oops. I also need to do my computer programming homework and microeconomics homework. I need to read another chapter for economics too. Blah.
