Where does this go?
Where does this go?
Good Morning,
Being that it is Saturday I have a lot of cooking and cleaning to do. I did get to sleep in (7:00 am) which I thought was lovely. W got called out at 4:00am to do a breath-test on a drunk driver, so I was awake for a little while then. Although I rolled in to centre of the bed and spread out….ahhh! !! 
. I’ve already done my exercises and had breakfast but still have lots to do today. I could use a little accountability so I make a list of jobs and let you know tonight if I got them down.

I need to get all my lessons and schedule ready to hand out tomorrow at church for Olympians, our children’s programme.
2. I need to do a general tidy through the house.
3. Dust and Vacuum the upstairs
4. Do a couple loads of laundry, completely.. …I’m really bad at leaving them 1/2 way done.
5. make a big pot of soup
6. make a cheese cake, Peanut Butter Chocolate, for W and CW’s birthday which is on Monday.
7. make supper, pork stir fry with lots of vegetables and brown rice.
If I’m going to get any of this done I better get started….. I’m off to shower, have a blessed day with your families.
Good Evening,
The house is quiet for the first time today. The boys are in bed asleep or almost there and W is out at a Good Bye Party for one of the guys in his office that is being transferred to Newfoundland. I’ve got a little while to be on the computer, AHHH. Although I know I could think of a bunch of things that I could be doing.
Today was our last real day of school this week, we have to few catch up on a few things first thing in the morning and piano to practice, then we are free for the day. CW really likes the idea of 3 day weekends. I’m a little discouraged, once again I’ve got way too much planned into each morning and we get dreadfully behind schedule. I need to learn to relax a little, I know but that isn’t in my nature.
W was off today, we like having him home but it does change the dynamic of our morning when he is here…..he doesn’t like waiting to talk to me when I am busy with one of the boys. Our mortgage is up for renewal so he was on a mission to find the right one for us, so there were many questions and phone calls to be made. The end of the day brought us a new mortgage with the same company we were with, O well at least we now know we were getting the best already.
Yesterday we took Baillie, our eleven year old Border Collie, to get groomed for the first time ever. We weren’t sure how she would react. Much to our surprise she was great and we came back to glowing reports about what a lovely dog we had. It was kind of weird, I felt proud sort of like when someone compliments your children. Now she looks like a show dog, so clean and white (where she is supposed to be white) instead of a dingy grey. We took some pictures to give to my sister because Baillie was her dog. When she went away to university Baillie was being couped up in the basement all day and it just was fair so we brought her to come and live with us and now she gets to be outside and run all day long, being a Border Collie she thrives on it.
Well I am going read some articles and knit away on W’s new socks….he’ s become spoiled and doesn’t want to wear any kind but homemade…. I’ve created a monster.
Take care and have a good night.
I guess that depends on how many interuptions you have. Tonight I timed myself just for fun…..anyone for a guess? 54 min. Now I have to mention that I do not have a dishwasher, that I had breakfast and lunch dishes to do as well, snack dishes, and some baking dishes. I like to have a ‘clean’ kitchen, everything dried and put away. W was getting ready for work so we had to talk as he was leaving, interruption number one. Then the boys had set up cones and cans in garage to make a race course for their bikes, I had to take a picture of that, another interuption. DJ kept knocking on the door every two minutes, he can’t open it yet, more interuptions. Finally, the boys had pretended that they had died and wanted me to draw their chalk outlines on the pavement, can you tell their dad is a cop? I wonder how long it would take if I could do the dishes in one fall swoop?
