those are my goals for today.  plus picking up around here but no point listing that - either i'll do it because it drives me nuts how messy things are or i won't

 

 

Not sure how much I'll be around here today cause I slept awful last night and feel like poop. Is it bedtime yet?!

 

Yeah, I got up right away after the alarm went off today too. What's the point of staying in bed when I was just tossing and turning anyways?! lol

 

Gotta try to make the waffles. I so don't want to but I'm going to send 1 or 2 leftovers as the girls' lunches so it's a must.

you know, for about a dollar you can get 8 of them already made hee hee

 

i slept so badly last night but i took a nap when i got home from dropping off the kids and slept well enough that i stayed in bed.  bad!  so nothing done today yet.  i'll make up for it tonight

did a 200 pickup which kind of picked up the kitchen and dining room plus a little of the laundry room and boys' bathroom

 

i'm going to invite my mil up for dinner saturday to get motivation to clean.  sad that i need that but at the same time at least i care enough about having a clean house that i'll go to such great lengths to get motivated.  trying to be more p ositive!

 

someone called about my van - it just hit the paper today.  and i didn't get it cloistered so i'll need to call this guy back later tonight, say i won't be home tomorrow 'til evening and hurry and get it cleaned tomorrow.  my sister goes somewhere called "cloister car wash" and pays $30 for it to be washed by hand, dried, vacuumed, and windexed.  for a little more i think i could get it armoralled too.  since it's filthy and i advertised it as clean i think $30 is a good investment even though a normal run-thru car wash for the outside is only $6 and i could do the rest myself.  but it's COLD wahhh.  plus they'll do a better job...  i'll still have to spot shot the carpets and dig the gummy stuff out of the little wells where the seats click in but at least the main part will be done.  also the wheel rims look awful so hopefully a handwash will get them clean.

 

back up to either unload/reload the dw or do another 100...

Man, I don't know if the kids have spring fever or what but they have been picking at each other so much lately. It's driving me nuts!!

 

Ooo, good motivation!

 

$30 sounds well worth it to get all of that done. I hope the guy actually buys the van!! Woohoo!

 

I've done very little today. I dozed on the couch in the morning while Timmy got into video games and CDs. Then, I dozed with Timmy while he napped and Braelyn terrorized the cats. She kept on running upstairs so I'm a little afraid to see if she did anything up there. I feel bad for dozing off with an awake child that isn't my own but she's a friend's kid... that's not AS bad, is it?! ahh

 

I've been having major heart burn today and it's kinda scaring me. I hope I don't get the pukey thing back as dh complained about that feeling when he was sick. I'm supposed to have my first cake class tonight but not sure I'll be able to make it out :( 2 hrs of just sitting there does not sound appealing in my state right now. It sucks that there's only 4 classes so missing one is a pretty big deal though it's supposed to be an introduction so of all the classes to miss, this would be the best one.

 

Ok, kids are getting restless. I'm going to attempt to tidy my house as it looks awful, while keeping the kids in check. Shoot, I just heard someone say something about these pop lip things... I have a feeling Timmy got into the lip stuff upstairs. AUGH. Better run upstairs to do a survey on the damage up there before dealing with the main floor.

 

Oh, one ta da, I managed to get 1 round of laundry going. Only a few blankets to wash still and then a normal clothes load.

i hope your heartburn is just pregnancy related and not the beginning of being sick again.  altho i guess if it was pregnancy related than that would also mean it won't go away?  i lived on tums with braeden.  i even got scott to go in and buy me a pack after my water broke on the way to the hospital.

 

my house looks awful too.  i made a "real" dinner (i defrosted a crockpot dish i made before christmas and dumped a can of corn in a dish and made minute rice but right now, that's about as "real" as my dinner get!) so i have a mess in the kitchen again.  how do other people cook so neatly?  i'm determined to have the entire first level plus our bedroom straight before dh gets home really late tonight.  he's have a "catchup" night at work so i should have one here.  that would be nice.  i usually have more energy in the evenings but i waste it because i like to lay around watching tv with scott but with him not home and my book all finished maybe i can use my energy instead of lying around.

 

i think i'm gonna drill for awhile.  before i come back at 7 i'll have the laundry rebooted and the kitchen all cleaned back up.  also the scout crap on the table sorted and put away...
