Have a good day at work today Rebecca.

Was up last night with the thunderstorm that went thru.... hail hit so quick w/ the wind it sounded as though someone was shooting at the house!!! It didn't last long but enough to startle everyone by DH out of their slumber!!

I've already been up and movin' so some chores are done... So, here is what is on the agenda for today:

up
make bed
make lunches x 4
pay bills
ck email/DIS
kids up
clean up family room
load and run dishwasher
kids to skl (nice enough that DD can take everyone!!! )
1 hour nap since I was up earlier
9:45am to the scrapbook room for:
work on list from yesterday
~ goal to finish the last few pages in DS15's 4-H book to bring it current
~ put 2011 pages into protectors and into their books
~ make note of last page of DD's 4-H book as a 10 year member (got an idea while up earlier)
~ complete rest of list
pick up DS11 from skl
E&N over for me to watch til DD gets off work
homework/snack duty
complete 4 pages before dinner
pick up DS15 from practice
dinner w/ everyone before DD takes E & N back to house for their bedtime routine
DH and DD to work on her taxes...(HRBlock was not allowing her to file the EZ form and the state taxes were NOT calculating her county tax info even thought it was inputted...we have done the hand copies so that's how we found the discrepancy...)
DH to f/u with DsS20 about his school tax info
sign and pay housing contract/deposit for DD

boys acted up last night
I went in their room last night stayed until I thought they were asleep
then James woke up around 3 & played on the internet, woke up his brother around 3:30, which woke up DH so he yelled at them (which woke me up again) then DH had to get up at 4 -- not a good start to the week

got to get boys ready for school
go to work, we will be short handed so it is going to be really bad today, I'm ready for school to be out already

boys have horse riding today
DH will be home early - should work in the backyard so I'll have to help him there after horse riding.

this week is going to be bad around here since DH has to open the store all week (so 4am is when he will be up)

A day off here for me I just needed one so I took it

Reddy so sorry the boys were difficult last night here's hoping tonight is better

[Reddy]

Reddy so sorry the boys were difficult last night here's hoping tonight is better

I'm going to take the internet cable off so he can't get Utube during the night for the rest of the week that will make him but then he won't wake up the whole house.

I just sent an email to my family letting them know the plans for the boys to go to the group home after our next Disney trip - then throwing out there about everyone joining us for the trip (they know they will have to pay their own way)

 

[joyah]

I wish I could just take the cable away! I have to take the wireless adapters out as the house was built before the computers in everyroom were popular. Hang in there I'm sure he'll be upset but he'll get over it.

That is really sweet of you to send it out as an option to the family and with this much notice it gives them time to make the ressies and save.

good luck tonight

it was the saving up for it that I was really thinking about - I know my family, they don't save up much (I think they have an accident fund but that is about it) I wanted them to think about it before commenting to it, and letting them know that there is a camping loop that allows pets, I know my Dad can't come unless he brings 2 of his dogs (one was left by his owners, & a friend saw her & tried to take her to the pound & was told they would have to put her to sleep so she called Dad, she is getting better about them leaving her for short spells - the poor thing - Dad has 3 dogs & 2 were left by their former owners)

my house was built in 85 so it doens't have internet in all rooms either but the boys room has a phone jack so I set up the wireless router/internet box in their room. so I take the cable that connects the router to the internet box off - if I had it set up so that computer was in another room I would just turn the router off.

[PrincessNancy96]

Christy, PJ usually takes the kids everyday unless they (the HSers) have an early meeting. I typically take DS11 to school when the roads are bad because the MS parking lot is a joke and her truck is rear-wheel drive...so I prefer to have her go directly to school.

 

[morgansmom2000]

Workin'. Boss isn't in yet, but I expect him anytime now. First day back from his vacation.

Got to drop off more cookies on the way home. Morgan has reached the halfway point of her goal of selling 200 boxes. We are taking donations to send to the Troops too, so that always helps.

We're having leftover Chinese food for dinner. DH bought enough to feed an army yesterday.

The slow-pokiness of the boards is making me crazy.

Hope everyone is having a good day!

 

[joyah]

Jen the boards are driving me NUTS too I'm only answerering after a few posts now and even then it's click get up and go back to scrap another page and come back to type.

Reddy we built out house in 95 and never even thought about putting in phone outlets in the boys rooms. so they are in the office/scrap room, our room, and the kitchen and basement. so the whole house is wireless I just stuck the router in the basement course the house is just under 1500 sq feet and so it works fine that way.

Lisa enjoy the day! can you post pics of the paint can? I've always wanted to try one.

Cheryl I hate bathroom duty! the boys have to do theirs so I only have mine to do but YUCK is right! and I'm enjoying it. I just used a transfer onto paper for the first time interesting concept.

Nan L wants a jeep (think jacked up mudden type wrangler) I told him he'll be driving my sequoia in the winter!!!!! Our middle and high are right next to each other both at the TOP of a really nasty hill all roads out have bad hills unless you want to go 5 miles out of your way. But i'm sooooo ready not to be the bus for them. 2 years is a long wait. He'll start driving next year (on the roads) and then in VT we have the rules of no one in the car for x months and then only family for x months so for just about 2 years of school which will be E's 8 and 9th grade years I'll get out of driving. E will actually turn 16 in his soph year (if my fuzzy brain is figuring right)so for like 5 months he'll be bussin it or bummin for rides. That one I'll never be ready for! I'll be giving the state warnings he's on the roads starting in 2015.
