The Daily Grind ~1/4/11~

[joyah]

Lisa hugs hang in there! hopefully the school realizes how hard this month will be for her (and you)

Hope momE and Linda have a great time

cheryl the wii fit plus is the one I have. So far I like it takes some getting used to. I'm very sore tonight 20 mins of free step (aerobics) was 1950 steps plus 3 yoga ones min of 3 times each. and 2 rounds of hula hoop. I pushed it a bit much but I'm rewarding myself with abubble bath! hopwfully it will ease the muscles along with the advil. Honestly the balance ones are the worst they look like you're doing great till the end and it moves like highspeed and you see every SLIGHT movement.

I've figured out that I need to get up an hour earlier though. trying to squish it all in after work/before kids are home doesn't leave me enough chore time. that means I'm going to back the alarm up a bit each day. I don't think I can handle just setting it up for 5 right off the bat.

luckily school has been very supportive, both counselors called today to check on us and got an email from her teacher.
they totally understand and work well with us, Megan's only missed two other days so far, but feels like there will probably be a couple more this month, the 7th is when Jim left to go to NY and of course the 12th she's already told me she want to stay home with me.
I know its important for her to go, but when she needs her mama I'm not sending her away, it breaks my heart to see her so sad, but thankfully these days are getting farther apart.

thanks for all our

Lisa ~ huge ... I can only imagine how hard this is for you and Megan... especially Megan because as kids we really don't know how to express everything or if we express things is that showing we are weak... Even as adults I think we still ponder that idea... but I agree.. if she wants to be home with you on the 12th..that is where she would be... it will be good for both of you... Wish I could have you both over... I'm glad the school is working with you and you have supportive counselors.. Here, that wouldn't happen... But I'm glad you have support!!!

Debbie ~ glad you got the text from DS that he is safe and even better you got to hear his voice!

DIT ~ they are just now ordering gowns/caps.. OMG! We have to order them and announcements in Oct/November and put a $90 deposit down with the balance to be paid in full at pick up in mid-May... (heck, next year it's only going to cost me $90 total because a friend of mine priced everything out and I'm making most extended family members announcements and I'm making the name plate for the announcements... it's nice to have a small family at times).

Today:
I took a nap after sending the kids to school..
I then started going through our photos from Dec/Nov 2010... looked at each event, the number of photos, picked out sketches noted sizes of photos that need to be ordered..

Tomorrow:
I will collage the photos into their appropriate sizes
copy the photos and the event into a word document; because you all know when you order photos they never are printed and put into the envelopes in the way you ordered them by event...

Nan--WOW! You are a woman on a mission!

Cheryl--sorry about the laptop! I hope you can find a good sale! I did take my 365 pic today--it was of DS in his jammies about 6 am, insisting that he needed his toboggan because it was time to go to "Nunna's" (my mom's).

Lisa-- to you and Megan!! Definitely, she should be home with you if she's more comfortable or needs to be with you! I'm so glad the counselors and school are understanding! They should be, and it's great to know she'll have that support when she goes back!

Deb--glad DS called!!!

I'm sorry for anyone I missed! I'm doing a drive-by while DS is taking a bath.

Have a wonderful evening, everyone!
