Busy Tuesday

Well I didn’t get everything finished yesterday, bummer. Today I have a few more errands to add to the list, and a new sewing project. My hubby is out of town for a meeting and he left me his car, so I think I’m going to take it for a few errands today. Here is the plan for today.

  • Wash and put away dishes
  • Wash 1 load of laundry
  • Put away 3 loads of laundry
  • Pump 1 bottle (vacation)
  • Get gas for Hubby’s car, maybe an oil change too
  • Work on sewing burp cloths, and laundry sorter
  • Stock freezer with yesterday’s frugal buys
  • Bills and balance checkbook
  • Today Walgreens is supposed to open, so I’m going to drive by and hope for the best Continue reading »

Busy Monday

I wish that I had a little more sleep last night, or maybe a few hours in the day. Today is going to be one super busy day. My hubby has a meeting out of town tomorrow, so I have to run a few extra errands today. Here is the plan, I hope I make a dent in it:

  • Gas up my Car
  • Get an Oil Change
  • Go Grocery Shopping
  • Fold 2 loads of laundry
  • Put away 4 loads of laundry
  • Wash and put away dishes
  • Clean up the kitchen
  • Bring the trash cans from the alley to the back porch  Hubby already took care of that for me. Thanks sweetie!
  • Empty all of the wastebaskets upstairs and downstairs
  • Clean the litter box
  • Take out the trash
  • Pump 1 Bottle (for vacation)
  • Start my sewing project (burp cloths for friend’s baby shower)

I think I should have started a little earlier today. I’m off to get some breakfast. Happy Monday!

Slipping and Sliding

Today was going to be one of those days. If I could have stayed in bed, I think I would have been better off 😉 Its Monday, and that means its shopping day. I took the boys out and tried my hardest to stay ahead of the rainy weather. One hour later we were finished, and it had just started to sprinkle. This is happening all to often around here, maybe I need to switch my shopping day. I got the boys in the car, the trunk loaded, and we headed home. The closer we got to the house, the harder it rained. Continue reading »

Almost Finished

O.k. I needed a little break from all of the running around today (four stops so far). We got the second trip of shopping finished just before the rains hit, but I did not get the trash out in time. I’m also making a change in my dinner menu. I found some great produce buys so I stocked up on fresh fruits and veggies. Tonight I’m going to be making B-B-Q Chicken, Corn on the Cob, and Fried Okra. My hubby has been requesting okra for quite a while, and the store finally had it. Let’s see if Thade likes the veggies 😉

Rain Out

rain-1pict0001.JPG We missed the rain barely yesterday. I took the boys out to go to the store, it was sunny out, and only a 20% chance of rain. I rolled down my windows, so the car would stay cool while we were shopping. We shopped for over an hour, Dylan was not cooperating at all, and Thade was yelling “Dylan quit screaming”, which always makes me laugh. We finally made it through the store and out the door, when we heard a huge clap of thunder. I got everything into the car, and the boys in their car seats just as it started to pour. Luckily by the time that I had driven across town, the rain had stopped.

Right before dinner, the rain started back up again. This time it was completely sunny outside, and pouring down these huge raindrops. The weather has been so strange lately.
