Morning ladies - well today feels like Monday to me as I was sick (flu or food sick) Sun night into Monday and took the day off and slept and hoped my belly would feel better.. I got up about 6 had some dinner then back to bed .. feeling about 50% better today - no belly issues so far .. so here's hoping I;m on the mend..

today is very low key
work
cable guy 4-6 to check an ongoing whole tv/dvr/internet freeze
dinner
then early bedtime..

good luck on your daily list and your monthly ones.. P & PD to those in need..
now off to catch up on what I missed yesterday..

 

[Reddy]

Good morning everyone
I got chilled yesterday & couldn't warm up until last night - DH added another blanket on top of me & that helped alot.
boys are already at school
I need to get ready for work - then go
home to inkscaping - working on something new for the Swiss Family Tree house - wanted something more Disney style so I"m tracing a pin with Goofy on it - hope it turns out

 

[morgansmom2000]

Hope you're on the mend, Michelle!

Lisa, we're making some hair doodads at our meeting on Wednesday night. Is it okay if I tuck those in with your cards and candy?

Nan, your list makes me tired.

I've already mopped the kitchen floor. Good heavens we're messy peeps. I really really really want to replace it. I just can't get it clean.

Found photos for an old ABC swap this weekend, hoping to get those pages done today. I need to drop my old Keurig off at Betsy's office. Library run. Find a recipe for a pork loin we thawed yesterday.

Hope everyone has a great day!

 

[mommy2mrb]

feel better Michelle!

Jennifer, yes it is! thank the girls for doing them

 

[morgansmom2000]

I have another bag of 'gently' used stuff that Morgan never wore, hardly wore, or will never wear. I'm going to send that too. Bring those at your discretion, okay?

 

[DisneyIsTerrific]

Michelle, hope you're feeling better.

to everyone who needs one!

I'm off today!!!! I slept 12 hours last night. I fell asleep after the first dance of DWTS and at 9, DH sent me to bed and I only just got up! I never sleep that long, but work has just been so exhausting and stressful lately. My goal is to just get through Christmas and then we get a long term store manager.

Anyway, here's my list for today:
Clean up kitchen
dust & vacuum
bills
grocery store
library
stitch, read, and/or scrapbook. This afternoon is going to be ME time!
dinner - ??

Have a wonderful day!

So, I usually lurk on this thread but don't post. I got to thinking that it might help keep me organized if I push myself to do this list in the mornings.....so here goes.

Prayers and Pixie Dust to everyone in need of some.
Rachal, Hopefully the girls have settled down. Youngest DS used to have night terrors a couple times a week. Nothing like waking up in the night to a blood curdling scream. It certainly lets you know your heart is still working.
Michelle, hope you are feeling better.
Reddy, can't wait to see your new pieces! Hope you have warmed up today. Fall is certainly here!
Nan, Hope your DD is back to normal after last week's campus sadness.
I have a bad case of the grumps today, so the boys at work better watch out!

Boys (X3) out of bed
Lunches packed (X2)
Boys out the door
Ready for work
Work till 3
Look for papers for the page swap....not finding what I'm looking for
Call guidance counselor about why transcripts haven't been mailed yet If she doesn't want to help kids, why is she a guidance counselor?
Call about candybar fundraiser
Get awards ready for Cub Scout Pack Meeting on Thursday
Boys (X2) for haircuts (might have to wait till tomorrow)
Make dinner (lazy mom's lasagne)
Homework with the little man
Hopefully scrap a little (Reddy's dumbo piece is cut for the MK page swap, now they all need put together)
Bed

Just found out that my sister's SIL (my BIL's sister) passed away this morning. They discovered she had cancer in September. I'm glad that she's not suffering, and didn't for a long time, but I'm so sad for her family. Life is far too short. Take a moment to tell your friends and family you love them today.

 

[PrincessNancy96]

Oh Jennifer, I am so sorry... but you are right, she is in a better place and no longer suffering... prayers to her family and yours....

Danielle, hope the grumps go away or the men at work at least behave!

DD is doing well.. they have had counselors available for anyone in need...evidently there was more than 1 incident last week..

Good Afternoon Ladies,

Checking back in after a jam packed six days at WDW! Boy, was there alot going on - the Dine and Dash Half Marathon, last weekend for Food and Wine Fest at EPCOT, The Festival of the Masters at Downtown Disney. We walked 8-12 miles a day, had gorgeous weather and I am soooo tired...hahaha! Got back around noon yesterday, took a two hour nap, unpacked and made dinner, went to bed at 9, got up at 7 this morning. Only got 4.5 hours of sleep Saturday night and 6 on Sunday night, hence the exhaustion. Working on laundry and photos now.

Hope everyone is doing well and has had a good week!

[JohnsonsLoveDisney]

I am plugging along. was a week ahead on dance practice so none tonight.

 

[PrincessNancy96]

Awesome for a free night off dance Rachal!!!

I'm hoping to finish up working on the sorority word books tonight....
Awaiting DD's additional information about her and her roomie possibly stopping by or meeting them on Sunday for lunch... means I'd have to miss the "golden ones" baby shower but after her last posting on facebook, I have no problems missing it!!!

 

[JJ&JHsmom]

Jennifer, thoughts and prayers to all.
Rachal, enjoy the night off dance!
Michelle, hope you are feeling better.
Christy, fingers crossed for the truck.
Danielle, hope the guys at work behaved!
Reddy, hope you are warmer. It has dropped 20 degrees here since this morning.
