Well, we've made it to Friday and I've almost got everything I wanted to finished. I still have a couple of things to cross off my list but for the most part, I'm satisfied with what has been accomplished, even with the need to manage the kid's schoolwork and keep them entertained.
Yesterday I finished off cleaning the flowerbeds out and it was certainly brisk! Bear and I ripped out the last of the flowers that were dead and tossed them in the compost bin and hurried back into the house. I also managed to organize the underneath of the bathroom sink. It was a complete tossing ground and you couldn't find anything you might need. I've got it all laid out now in rows and organized and maybe now won't open any new bottles of medicine before finishing the ones that are already there. I also replaced the battery in the smoke detector.
Yesterday evening we had swimming lessons and they went well for Bear. She is gaining a ton of confidence in the pool and is willingly putting her whole head under and getting to the business of swimming. Bug is struggling a bit, not with the swimming but with the fact that they don't give them any time to catch their breath before moving onto the next thing. This is also hampered by the instructor being on the side of the pool and shouting the instructions to the kids. She's still enjoying it but I think it's been harder on her than she's letting on.
For meals this week I've been digging in the freezer and whatever I can find and pull out is the winner for the day. So far we've been okay. Today was a container of chili, so hopefully, it's still good and tasty. It'll be a nice warm meal for Hubs who is working outside all day on his construction job. It's 9:30am and the roofs across the street still have frost on them. It's only supposed to get to plus two today as the high.
My plans for today are to attend a meeting, even though I'm on holiday, and I want to get the winter clothes into drawers and summer stuff packed away. If I can get that done I can do Bear's closet tomorrow and be happy with what I've crossed off and completed. We'll see how it goes as the clothing switch over starts off great and then I lose steam about halfway through and don't want to do this anymore.
Hope you all have a good day!
