Mornin' all!!! It's FRIDAY!!!!


Well, yesterday was a wash with everything we did... so today it is time to get things done and knock off some major "to dos"...

Today:

DD out the door for test

pick up boys
homework/snack
hope the rain stays away so we can get outside and play on the trampoline

It's going to be a good day!!! Gonna take my new car for a spin...then I'll park it and drive my van all next week.... (not letting DS15 drive my new one for a while... well, neither can DH or DD! LOL)

Lisa, we got a Ford Escape.. those things are roomy... Dh sits pretty far back compared to me..and the kid who sits behind him has plenty of room to stretch out and not put their knees in his back (unlike his car and he complains about my van...however my van, the middle seat is pulled up further to give the bigger boys who like the rear seats more room..he forgets that!)

Hello Everyone
last day of Spring Break for us too

We are going to move bulbs so I don't think I'll get anything else done today

 

[LindaBabe]

good morning, all!

Solar cooking sounds interesting - and so does making paper!

Can't believe how fast the days go, after tha tlong list I postd and go t through the other day, i planned to get in here every day and post. Ha! Like that's going to happen. Yesterday, I went to gym and grocery and then spent a lot of time sitting at my work table looking out the window while I waited for inspiration.

Need an anniversary card for an unusual couple. So far I have a yellow base and a purple overlay with no square corners. But no anniversary stamps on hand, and I can't think of anything to say other than "whacky anniversary" which doesn't seem appropriate.

And as for SCRAPPY inspiration - well, that was so lacking I've posted for help on the sb board.

Today,
Stay out of dh's way (perfectionist, working on guest bath)
make meals
spend more time sitting at my table waiting for inspiration
rake if it dries out any

Happy Day, all!

oh no....sorry to hear you've been sick...take it easy today

 

[BernardandMissBianca]

Thanks Lisa, Just moving at a snails pace today. I so wanted to get a bunch of stuff done this week while hubby was gone, but that just isn't going to happen.
The kids were good though and helped to pick up the house a bit, did laundry, DS15 cooked lunch and dinner for the little ones, and they all chipped in to do trash and dishes. Mom popped in to help a bit but they seemed to have everything under control.

 

[rlovew]

Buffy- glad the kids helped while you were sick.

Solar Cooking- have to wait for another day to see if my design worked and how long some things take to cook- it is too windy here today and my oven kept blowing over.
