Clean up the office side of the sunroom
Work on monthly finances
Write real letters to friends
Finish packing box for DD
Sew microwave mini potholders

Have a great Thursday everyone!!

So the first thing I finished was not even on this list!!

I transplanted all but two of my seedlings and moved all of my plants to the backyard!! For some reason that has left me a little tired - it may have been from carrying everything up and down stairs - but a few minutes of rest - perhpas some lunch and I shall be good to go again!!

I paid bills and created a small budget for back to school shopping. Made some appointments for next week on my day off. We went and helped out a friend with some yard work and they bought us pizza as a thank you. :D So, no money spent (besides bills) and we had dinner "out" lol

DS: 7am football weightlifting/workout

DD: 8:30 am went to pick up transcript from the Chemistry class she took over the summer but it wasn't ready. (She got an A and can now take AP Chemistry this school year - yay!!!)

DD: 9am stopped by the high school to meet the new principal. Also, met with the activities director because she has to write a welcome letter to the student body to go in the handbook.

DD: 3pm picked up her BFF and went to DD's last volleyball game for the summer league.

DD and BFF: 6:30 pm dropped them off @ minor league baseball game so they could have a little fun.

In between picking up and dropping off everyone I took a nap, DH and I went to the grocery store and finally we cooked some dinner.
