    Smile Weary Wednesday

    It is kind of muggy here today, I'm hoping for a little rain to come this way. I think that Laurie in Bradenton is going to get it all though! Oh well, maybe tomorrow!

    What is going on today?

    I need to:
    clean ballet shoes and tap shoes
    sew straps on the girls dance costumes
    check tights are clean and run free

    vacuum
    mop
    wash sheets
    pick up front sun porch

    I'm off to work. I have an interview tomorrow for a better job. Sort of a drive...almost 30 miles...but it pays about $6 an hour more, plus overtime and benis. I just need more money.

    Today, I feel like calling out, but I need the $$ too much. I hate my job. I have so much to do around here, and seem to spend all day on my days off tending to appts. and never get anything done.

    It is going to be a hot 95º here and the wind is suppose to be blowing at 35 mph so I will be staying indoors under the air conditioner. I plan to wash the bed linens today and clean my carpets in the living room, hall and bedrooms and master bath. After that I am just planning on working on some cooling bandanas for my DH and DFIL to sell.

    Another beautiful day here in VA. It's sunny and cool. I was actually able to shut off the A/C and open the windows.
    I haven't done much this morning. DS#2 is home AGAIN from school.
    I have managed to make the beds and sweep the kitchen. Got one load of laundry done and need to do another. I need to mop the kitchen, vacuum, wipe down the boys bathroom, dust the living room and bedrooms, gather the trash and have one of the boys take it out. Other than that, nothing much planned.
    I hope everyone has a great day!

    Good morning!!

    It's a beauriful sunny morning...but COLD! It was 42* when I took the girls to school this morning. Only supposed to get up to 64*. But it's a nice break from the upper 80s & high humidity we've been having. And it's not raining, so that's good

    I have already:
    ~got all four kids to school
    ~went to Price Chopper for Loss Leaders, subtotal was $120, actual total was $65
    ~put the groceries away
    ~took out stuff for dinner
    ~talked to my mom on the phone
    ~took the dogs out
    ~mailed out Netflix movies

    I have no laundry to do because dh did it all on his day off yesterday, he even put it all away!! But I still need to:
    ~vacuum downstairs
    ~make the bed
    ~wash the breakfast dishes
    ~knit
    ~blog
    ~pick up the kids from school
    ~make dinner
    ~give the boys a bath

    Today I have to do some daily chores, prepare dinner so I can just put it in the oven when I get home from work. Go to work and then work some more on my budget for the month.

    Morning All!

    The rain has finally stopped & the is shining...although it's still a bit cool. At the moment I'm doing a few loads of laundry. I still need to sweep & vacuum and then I'm thinking about going over to my MIL's for a visit. I'm closer to her than my own mother and we need to have our weekly chat...LOL!

    Hope everyone has a great day

    DD spent the night with my mom last night and DS spent the night with his buddy again. He has been gone since Monday night and I miss him terribly.

    Today I need to.....

    ~Pick up 3 Domino's pizzas and take over to where DS spent the night. It is just him, his buddy and his buddy's older sister and older brother but they always have other kids coming. I hope 3 will be enough.

    ~Take DD's dog out for a while. He has to be babysat in the yard because he escapes under the fence. He has some friends down the road he likes to visit.

    ~Fold some laundry.

    ~Call about getting some estimates on a new roof.

    ~Work on my laundry room some more.

    ~Fix an early dinner.

    ~Pick up DS from friend's house and take him to batting practice.

    ~Set the DVD recorder to record the Tennessee women's softball game tonight. DS LOVES Tennessee women's softball.

    ~Go to a minor league baseball game. DS's baseball team, all coaches, parents and siblings are going as a group. The team's corporate sponsor paid for the tickets for everyone.
