What have YOU been doing this week?

post #1 of 8
Thread Starter 

I have actually been swamped this week, believe it or not.  That's why I haven't been here much.

 

Monday

Cleaned the kitchen

Got dinner out to thaw

Went thru ads, made a list, gathered coupons and did the grocery shopping

Did the hand washing (what didn't fit in the dishwasher)

Cooked dinner

Swept & mopped the kitchen floor

Washed 2 loads of laundry

 

Tuesday

Went shopping for some household stuff at the thrift store

Ran errands and paid a few bills

Cleaned the kitchen

Washed dishes

Washed and hung to dry some heavy blankets

Cooked dinner

 

Wednesday

Washed & dried 6 loads of laundry

Folded and put away 17 loads of laundry

Cleaned kitchen

Washed dishes

 

Thursday

Folded and put away Ally's clothes (about 3 loads worth!)

Cleaned the kitchen

Put dinner in the crockpot

Washed dishes

Scrubbed microwave (it was getting nasty!)

Sorted and bagged some clothes for donation

Took out trash in my bedroom (including old, stained clothes)

 

Had more planned for today, but Rick came home early (allergy attack - bad one).  While I love spending time with him, having him here during the day really throws me off my schedule, you know?  *sigh*  I had planned on cleaning out the kids dressers and re-organizing them so we can actually FIND their clothes, but now my day feels all off kilter.  Weird, since Rick is asleep (Benadryl does that to him) that I can't seem to do what I planned.  Guess it's a good thing I got so much done before he got home!  LOL!

 

Guess I will try to work on some of the other things on list, but somehow I just not feeling motivated anymore.

WTG Brenda!  I've been paying bills and working on this home buying/moving thing.  I've been spending a lot time keeping dh calm.  He's really nervous about moving.  Not happy in WV, but nervous about moving somewhere better.  KWIM?

I can't say what housework I have done this week... I don't keep track of the daily stuff, although it's been a busy school week for me so Jim has done more than I have.

I did clean out Karah's dresser and closet and switch summer for winter clothes.  One whole bag to donate, and one whole bag to put up to see if they still fit next summer.

I am Killer swamped!  ... But not with housework.  I had my sister & Dad here over the weekend and then have had to be at the store for at least a little while every day since ... and it isn't going to let up until next Wed. which is the next day that I don't have to go in. 

It's kinda frusterating because I busted butt on my livingroom Wed. before I had to go to work and within 24 hrs. my teenager had it destroyed. *sigh*

same crap as every other week. Laundry, dishes and other fun stuff. Someone took apart my broom and now I can't find the handle - other than that all is well. LOL!

post #7 of 8

This week so far i have been trying to clean and organize for when I get to stay home.  I have 2 kids coming to my house starting on Monday, one of whom is special needs, and can be a bit of a handful.

 

I cleaned up the basement (well ok the playroom part of it--my sewing room is a disaster).

Brought in a new used tv stand (much better than what we had there)

Still need to figure out which movies I dont' want down there as I dont' want everything trashed by the kids

 

Still need to move the second fridge into the sewing room.  Need to also put a new lock on my sewing room door so we can make sure no one goes playing in there.

 

vacuumed and mopped the main floor.

Sorting out paper for taxes (trying to get a jump on some of it since I have so much more i will get to declare because of the day home)

Need to clean my desk again

need to figure out what to do with my curio cabinet that i can no longer lock since my kids lost the keys to it and i can no longer lock it

 

have to go to our friends house tomorrow and finish emptying out the bit of stuff that is still there.  THey moved adn finally sold their house, swe offered to help clean the last rements out of it

 

need to help my kids tackle their rooms again. Their rooms are a HUGE mess....especially Liz.  Liz and I are going to switch dressers (hers is a bit smaller).. plus we are goign to build an ikea dresser so that I can have to smaller dressers in our room (which will work much better).

 

I have a shelf that Jerry made me in the play room, but i dont' think i can keep it there, as the shelves on it flip easy as they are just sitting on top of the pins for it.....and since the shelves are made out of plywood....i dont want anyone hitting themselves with it....so i may either put it in my sewing room.....or up in Liz's room.

 

Gotta get the kids to clean up the yards, and I guess its time to put their bikes away for the year. The weather has gotten really cold, and we have already had snow....and its trying to snow again this morning....go figure

 

gotta work on my to do list for the weekend. Should be able to get a lot done since Jerry is home and doens't have to work.

Rick was home yesterday, so that was a bust for getting anything done.  All I did was clean the kitchen, pick up a bit and cook dinner.

 

Today I am cramping bad, so another day wasted.  Hopefully tomorrow will be more productive.
