What are your plans for today?

[Irish_Wristwatch]

not a thing, we had a busy afternoon yesterday so it will be nice to do nothing

[mrsjl]

I am babysitting today. I am just getting everyone fed and then shortly after it will be nap time, during which I will clean, clean, clean. then lunch, then get ready to take Rebecca to preschool. not sure what Nathan and Mya and I will do for two hours, then get Rebecca and come home. start getting supper ready, Mya will go home, we will eat, clean up, play, get kids ready for bed and then in bed, then we will relax and watch our shows. DH is off tomorrow so we can stay up a bit later.

this is probably more detail than you were asking for, but it helps me wrap my head around what I have to do as well haha

[Irish_Wristwatch]

lol Lori, it sounds better than my "im doing nothing" there is plenty i should be doing, like folding the 3 loads of laundry in the laundry room, sweeping and mopping the entire house and doing the dishes oh and going to the post office and im supposed to go get my blood drawn sometime this week but i really dont want to do that LOL

[mrsjl]

for cleaning I have to fold laundry and put it away, sort dirty laundry to be washed when DH gets home (laundry room is downstairs in my building), scrub my floors, and do a general cleaning and tidying up of every other room. I don't think I will get it all done today.

but, Bree, I totally do what you are doing today. if we are super busy and running around one day, we try to take it easy and do nothing the next. keeps us from getting to worn down. sometimes we have no choice but to be on the go for a few days, but we do a "nothing" day as soon as we can.

Since we rearranged some of the house the other day, I have a huge amount of laundry. I've been working on that already.

Then Gage has a doctors appointment for the cough that won't go away. So I have to take him out of school, take him to his appointment, then return him to school. Jason said I'm the non-cool mom. Oh well haha, I don't want him to hate school like I did.

Then, depending how Jason's knee is, we might finally rearrange the living room. If not, I'll clean it up and clean the kitchen.

[mrsjl]

I love rearranging furniture. I am getting the itch to do it again. thanks a lot

[inyourhonor]

Haha, I do too. However moving them to different floors is a different idea! My thighs are killing me from moving our dressers. You can't take the drawers out so they're heavy as heck!

[mrsjl]

think of all the calories you burned though! (silver lining?)

[sunshyne57]

Since it's raining here today, I will be doing some cleaning I guess. I have laundry to fold, clean the upstairs bathroom, and maybe go through Alivia's clothes.

[inyourhonor]

My upstairs bathroom is a disaster. It's embarrassing to look at. It's overrun with clothing, ugh. I'm working on it though!


I'll keep that in mind, the silver lining every time I stand up, I'll tell my thighs to suck up the pain, we burned calories!

[Rochelle7]

I hope you all get your goals accomplished and also get to REST!


Exercise, homeschool, put away dishes, do some more, laundry, mop! Make Grandpa bday cards, scrapbook, try and stay off the phone (ppl call me all day every day which makes it hard to get a thing done), Maybe tackle a project I've been putting off in the kitchen or bathroom or bedroom.

IL's are coming for Thanksgiving and I have so many things I want to get done before then (mainly losing weight!) My MIL takes great joy in rubbing in how fat I've gotten since I was 16 and how I "used to be so pretty" yea, it's one of those "I'll show her" deals.

[mrsjl]

you MIL is a jerk!

don't do it for HER, do it for YOU. but of course enjoy the look on her face when she sees how great you look

I love thanksgiving less than 2 weeks until turkey day, woohoo!

[Rochelle7]

OMGosh Lori- Y'all have TG so early there! I always forget that.

Yea, I know I shouldn't do it for her, and I'm not really. It's for my satisfaction of how it will make her feel to see I can conquer all! My mom was saying what you said to me and I told her that I agree but ppl use all sorts of reasons to motivate them to lose weight and a big part of that is vanity and even if they say it's for health, it's not always. SO, I'm just being honest from the get-go about the other driving force of my weightloss plan... to get that mean, crazy lady!


(I like emoticons too much, pls forgive me)

Josh has CQ (24 hour shift) so its just Rosie and I all day/night.
After morning nap we will be heading to the store so I can pick up some milk.
I have to do 2 things on my list on top of the normal dishes and pick up the living room. So today its clean the upstairs bathroom clothes piled up and counter is covered with junk. And I need to empty out two baskets of clean clothes and put away. I have 4 more baskets to do.
I would like to be able to finish up all the laundry today so tomorrow I can wash the baby stuff. But not so sure that will happen..lol

Rebecca your MIL is a jerk. But I understand.

[forest]

Your MIL is a total jerk Rebecca!!! My SIL was part of my weight loss motivation after both my kids. After I had Elizabeth she made some comment about how after kids you will never get back to your old size. It was great to prove her wrong.

Not much happening today. I got a great run in before work. I want to figure out something yummy for dinner tonight and I need to get the house all picked up. Hopefully it won't take too long.

[KatieHeitman]

Today I don't have too many plans. Just the normal routine with the boys. Gotta work on Alex's quilt at naptime. Then I have my yearly checkup/physical at 3pm. Ugh...so not looking forward to that.

[rainbow_brite19]

Um yesterday I worked and we had to go into the city for Jackson's hematology appointment. After that, DF went to class all afternoon/night so I put laundry away, did dishes, made dinner, etc etc.
