Seth was a benevolent King for the weekend! We had a very relaxing 3 days. All are sad it has come to an end. A nice holiday. Kids are back to school today but Steve has one more day off. We talked about driving an hour away, visiting a museum and getting Steve's favorite BBQ as an anniversary day we never took but I think we are going to opt for a home day and go out to eat lunch locally.
Tomorrow I am spending the day working on March and possibly April Lessons....so I may not be around much again the next few days.
What Zone are we in this week, Misti? That's awesome you already have your workout done for the day!
Sounds like you had a good 3 days and remember that a Stay-versary (a Stay at home anniversary) is a good one too as long as you're with the one you love.

Ahha! I'll get the hang of this. So it's Master Bedroom week.
It's kinda funny, I just told my dh that we needed to work on clearing off some shelves in our 2 open closets (we have those 2 we use as nooks and a walkthrough we actually use for clothes). His dad built the house and there is no shortage on closets - a blessing and a curse at the same time.
As for the mini challenge, like someone else said, I've already done that part so I will try to work on the other after I mop the floors from yesterday's mess.

Here's my quick list for this am as I try to get myself out the door
Already completed for the day
pulled up my side of the bed - dh worked until 6am so he's still in the bed
get dressed
breakfast
catch up on a couple of threads
put away some dishes from last night
I'll take the garbage out when I walk out the door it's 26F here and that's cold to us - only necessary trips outside today
Now off to the college until around 3 to work on the accreditation and a meeting.
When I get home and after I eat dinner with the hubs
mop the floors
pull things off those 2 shelves in the master bedroom closets
start sorting through them to determine what needs to stay, where it needs to stay
and what just simply needs to go
Hope y'all have a great day! Chat with you later.

It's only because that's a good way for me to wake up! My boys are on a strict training program & Mama is really struggling to keep up!!!
I'm still impressed. I really need to get off my bumm and get on some kind of exercise program. I used to say that I didn't exercise because I didn't have anyone to exercise with and even though that is still true, I need to change my attitude about it all. I need to make myself accountable to myself for it.
Have a great day!

Hey y'all! our Internet is out (widespread network outage which they are aware of) and 3G is slow so not sure how much I'll be on today.
!
Mine is always slow. Living so far out there is no high speed Internet. But on feb 5 our Internet company is coming out to give us a new anteannena and they have put up a new tower so hopefully we will have better service. They said if they can't improve our service they will admit it so that we can research other options. Some of the satellite services have improved.but of course that will require us to buy new equipment.... $$$
Could not sleep last night (finally fell asleep at 4) so I got a real late start this morning. I need to hit the ground running today. Still not as much will get done as I had hoped. So here is the short list.

Attend quilt meeting
Pick up held mail

Dinner
Finish pricing items for boutique
Finish cards started last night
Relax more before bed tonight......
So far today:
Coffee
Breakfast
Made a basic card - needs embellishing
Worked on my craft table 10ish minutes - still looks like Micheals got sick in my room
Loaded the dishwasher
Going to:
Get some laundry going and start dishwasher
Fold yesterday's laundry
Change kids' sheets - mini mission

It's me! I'm using glossy accents with alpha dies. They are't very big and I'm just not precise enough. Squish, squish, squish.
Ooo, gotcha...that would be tricky. And squishy!

I think archer's birthday was nice. We went to the butterfly exhibit at the science museum, mom bought him Star Wars shoes, we had pizza out for supper, he got a build a robo-dinosaur kit, a pop-up book on the human body that he looks at every time we're there, and we got the new Star Wars pop up for the family. (thank you Aunt Mary for the Barnes & Noble gift card for Xmas!)
Need to make some birthday cards today. Need to pick up and declutter. Might work on photos. I'm sure I will desperately need the mini mission. I did do yesterday's! Needed that one too!

as for here: interview over... now i need to focus on my book review. I never realized how tough these were to write :P and then figure out dinner... needs to use LO mashed potatoes and chicken breast. Thinking of making this recipe but then i need to make a run to get the missing ingredients....
Coming back and seeing how today is going.....I think I'm on track but need to add a few things.
TUESDAY LIST:
Make bed DONE
get dressed DONE
Mini Mission of day DONE
Brunch (too late for breakfast) DONE
Gather items for meeting DONE
Attend quilt meeting DONE
Pick up held mail DONE
Call Faith and arrange to pick up name tags
Pull out items I plan to sell at Boutique this weekend DONE
Dinner
Finish pricing items for boutique
Finish cards started last night
Relax more before bed tonight......
Empty dishwasher
Print off more luggage tag inserts
Find rest of price tags???? Where did they go?
It's only because that's a good way for me to wake up! My boys are on a strict training program & Mama is really struggling to keep up!!!
Misti, Do your boys follow a book or a certain program? Have they just made it up as they went along to keep fit?
Steve was wanting to get Seth a book or something. Seth has been lifting weights for a few months and Steve thought it might good for him to have a certain program to follow.
as for here: interview over... now i need to focus on my book review. I never realized how tough these were to write :P and then figure out dinner... needs to use LO mashed potatoes and chicken breast. Thinking of making this recipe but then i need to make a run to get the missing ingredients....
potato patties and then the chicken made into a salad? or do you have chcken gravy to add to it? Potato patties are my go to thing to do with LO mashed potatoes. or if you have a creamed soup you could cut the chicken up and put it in there, if you don't, do you have broth or bouillon cubes on hand that you could thicken with flour or corn starch and put the chicken in there?
perhaps I should work on that today. 
but, he'll be back for SuperBowl weekend!
