new music

mid week

I am feeling a tad bit tired today.
I wonder why I procrastinate so much.

On the list:

Doctor appointments for the youth in the household.
Passports need to be finished - don't say anything - this is an embarrassment - really what is my issue?
Gingerbread photo shoot.
Email the football team - someone grabbed my son's helmet by mistake.

On the other side of the things I have done:

drove daughter and friend to ballet, drove son to football, arranged pickup for daughter and picked up son from football - in between I exercised for 40 minutes - 40 minutes is the key - that extra 10 minutes is making the difference

dishes unloaded and loaded - some stomping of feet as this could have been done by somebody else
coffee procured so we don't have another morning without
made some juice - sure did

now I will make some lunches

gosh my life is exciting.

update

yesterday was a day
normally tuesday is a free day
NO extracurricular activities
time at home with the
FAMILY
but
that did not happen.
and I was seriously agitated by the whole thing
and it almost threw me off the
FITNESS / HOUSEWORK CHALLENGE
but
I rallied
and I
folded heaps of laundry and put it away
and I spend my 40 minutes on the machine
I love it when I face
RESISTANCE
and
WIN
the
BATTLE.

things I have done

as part of the fitness/ housework challenge.... 40 minutes on the eliptical machine - I'd love to be able to run again but that impact to my spine just might do me in.

laundry - 3 loads - folded and distributed

gingergread cookie dough made and chillin' in the fridge - hoping to bake the cookies tonight.

subaru has had an oil change

finished the harry potter inspired scarf

no photos taken all day. just never picked up the camera

*** my son cut his hair - short - and came home with stylin' side burns... where did my little boy go?
