Lawyerlady · On the bright side...... Christmas is coming! (Mod)

Good morning! I have way too much to do today.

Southern_Belle · Nothing's Impossible

Good morning. Have a great day all!

Southern_Belle · Nothing's Impossible

I am at the dentist with DD. Just 3 fillings for her today. Praying work doesn't call before she's done. The hospital is only 3 minutes down the road but she will be hating life if she gets stuck going in with me.

I know what to do_sometimes · Frozen Sucks!

Its all about laundry and shopping today. But nothing too tough. Trying to get wood delivered too.

Southern_Belle · Nothing's Impossible

Omg a guy just came in the waiting area with his son. He has so much cologne on! My head is going to explode. Gotta move without looking rude.

Lawyerlady · On the bright side...... Christmas is coming! (Mod)

One of my activities for today just got moved to tomorrow. That makes today better. Tomorrow crazier.

Lawyerlady · On the bright side...... Christmas is coming! (Mod)

OK - I am a good shopper, but it is pretty much impossible to find a nice GREEN blouse/tunic/shirt for my child! Green is the other Christmas color, people!

I stopped at the grocery before work. Yay me.

Now I can go directly to itty bitty's house after I get off at 5.

Did you try zulilly?

OMG!! OMG!!!!!!!

The post office will be issuing Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer stamps!

They will feature Rudolph, Santa, Hermey AND Bumble!!!!!!

Sweet! I really don't need stamps but I think I will get some.

AND they're forever stamps.

I'll get some but you have to be REALLY special for me to use one on a card!

Tignanello · My dog name is, Sasha!

Here is my list of things I had to do yesterday ....

set up a meeting with my grad school advisor, write a paper in the next week and a half, do my grad research work for the professor I work for, clean my house, do laundry, try to remember what I wanted to do with my Auntie this weekend (it was SUCH a good idea ...), call the storage unit that has my stuff and make sure my payments aren't in arrears, pay my student loan, walk the dog, cancel my gym membership (it's in the wrong city), fix my budget ....

Here is what I did ....

emailed grad school advisor, walked dog, paid tuition - which is different than paying my student loan (and went to work and then came home)

Here is what today looks like ...

I don't think I should get out of bed ...

Fort Worth Mom · Mod/Penguin lover/Princess!

Good morning, everyone!

Watching College Gameday right now. I will probably spend most of the day watching football.

Conor and Jessi will probably be down with their laundry later.

Other than that, not much else on the agenda. We shall see!

Have a great day, Good Geeks!

Could you please do my laundry too? Ugh. I need one less thing on my list of tasks.

Fort Worth Mom · Mod/Penguin lover/Princess!

Sure Tig! I don't mind doing laundry. I just hate pairing off socks. You will have to do that yourself! wink

Ugh. Its the folding that holds me up every single time!

The reason I can't do my laundry right now is because the old clean laundry is still in the bin waiting to be folded. I'm stuck.

Try the boys clothes.

A green t shirt is usually always available.

lilyofcourse · My spirit animal is a pink flamingo.

Morning.

Slept in. The sun is shinning and it is 54 but the wind is cool.

I need to get some stamps too. How much is a book of stamps now?

I have to finish some Christmas shopping. But I really don't want to go out on a Saturday.

I think I will browse online.

A bit nervous for my cousin today. She is playing a few ball games today but there are three college scouts coming to watch her.

Hope everyone has a great day.

Homework. I need to finish raising my virtual child. And start researching and writing my research paper. And finish about 50 small assignments for French class. And read about the respiratory system for Anatomy. And defrost one of the freezers after figuring out where to put all the stuff. The second freezer is pretty full too.

flan327 · Itty bitty's Grammy

I wanted to go out for Chinese, but I'm too hungry, so I'm nuking something here.

I am having some noodles and trying to get my Christmas cards ready to go out.

Anybody want a Christmas card?

Left dentist and went to the grocery store. Of course the nursing supervisor called while we were there. Been at work over 2 hours. Had to put my meat in the freezer here. I hope to get out of here soon.

Nobody Just Nobody · Rib-it! Rrrib-it!

Did all my housework and laundry yesterday. Only thing to do is take some movies back today. Maybe a quiet day. Might cook dinner, might not. Maybe I'll maybe some brownies.

Southern_Belle · Nothing's Impossible

At walgreens waiting for DD'S prescription toothpaste. It's a freaking tube of toothpaste, whyyyy do we have to wait 25 minutes? The tech had to go check if they had it and now we wait. I just want to go home and take a shower and a nap.

Honeys_Mom · Mod & Permanent Board Sweetheart

Got 2+ hours of heavy yard work (trimming, weeding, raking) done at the church (we have a "work day" once a month where a few of us actually show up and work!), then swung by the market and got the weekly shopping done. The rest of the day is mine!! I'll transplant a few things and putter in my little back yard. There are lean pork steaks, stuffing and spinich salad for dinner - maybe I'll put the steaks on the bbq. Anybody have a better idea for lean pork steaks?

Lily - I love your avatar. Unfortunately for Tom, it makes me hungry for turkey!! I love this season... biggrin

I took my own advice. Since posting this, I have slept for 8 additional hours....

So you need to check this out. homesteadfair.com We have an Amish community near us and every Thanksgiving weekend they do this weekend where they demonstrate all kinds of things. Soap making, wooden boats, weaving, basket making, candles, pottery, and more. You can try your hand at making it. They have all kinds of music and they do a barn raising. They do milking, herding, and cheese making. They have hay rides and horseback rides. And all kinds of food. Brick oven pizza, kettle corn, funnel cakes, home made ice cream, and cider.

But this year they are doing seminars on sustainable organic gardening, raising chickens, food preservation, and rainwater collection among other things. I really want to go to them!

lilyofcourse · My spirit animal is a pink flamingo.

That sounds like a ton of fun and educational as well. I'd go if I was there.

We have never gone because it's kind of expensive. It's much cheaper if you buy the passes ahead of time. They charge for parking and you get tickets to do different activities. You can buy family passes too. I've been really into food preservation lately. Czech has been answering a lot of questions for me. I want to learn more! In fact, I think I'm going to order a pressure cooker tonight.
