ALL IN A DAY'S WORK!

We came back from the valley on Sunday. We all went to see Kate, Erin and Dustin. The kids are so excited to be Uncles and Aunt. I've decided that packing for an overnighter is just as much work as is packing for a week. Anyway, this prompted me to write a list of what I did the next day.

1. Started wet bathing suit laundry.
2. Wrote breakfast, lunch, and dinner menus for the next 2 weeks.
3. Hung up laundry outside.
4. Wrote up grocery list.
5. Continued doing laundry. While down in Phoenix, we bought the kids summer clothes at 2nd hand stores, so naturally these all have to be washed. (our children do their own laundry during the week, I told them I would do this extra just this once).
6. Got ready for work.
7. Worked at the office from 9-3PM.
8. Shopped on Amazon for summer homeschool books.
9. Ordered Erin a babooshbaby stomach thing to help with her c-section.
10.Ordered me something similar to wear while working out. This is supposed to make the tummy weight slide off!
11.Called in prescription refills.
12.During lunch hour, gassed up Durango and went to the manual car wash to take care of all the dead bodies of bugs.
13.Went grocery shopping.
14.Went to bank.
15.Dropped Alexs' suit at the dry cleaners.
16.Recieved in mail baby Kate's first picture!
17.Put in crock pot ingredients for tomorrow's dinner. Put in fridge.
18.Continued laundry.
19.Before going to grocery store, garage door broke. Called neighbor to help me fix it. Jared came and helped too. This took about 1 hour. Jared and I held up the garage door with elbows,knees, stomachs, hands while neighbor was re-winching it. (does this count for exercise, weight training for the day?)
20.Drove to Taco Bell to get dinner, cause I wasn't going to cook!
21. Talked on phone to son Andy in Canada.
22. Did stretching exercises for my back problems.
23. Finished laundry.
24. Gave myself a pedicure and painted my nails.
25. FELL INTO BED AT 8:45PM
Are you tired after reading this. I am.
PS. This is not a normal day, for all of you out there thinking I am some kind of SuperWoman. Believe me, I am not!
I am calling this blog; one for posterity: Fun Foree Family Facts.
