This is what I've managed to accomplish since the kids are camping with their grandparents this week. (This is mainly for my own personal sense of accomplishment---except for #5. I guess that goes towards my ME time.) :o)
1. A little bit of laundry---I say a little because, well, there just aren't that many dirty clothes to wash when the kids aren't here.
2. Scrubbed the boys' bathroom---it wasn't in terrible shape, but you know how boys can be. Sometimes I think it would be better to just have a completely tiled or cement room with a hole in the floor so we can hose it down every once in a while.
3. Put the girl's room back together. It was bad. And I mean BAD. I think she had some help . . . someone named Matthew . . . and there might have been a Zackery involved, too.
4. Hoed the garden. Not all of it because it's pretty daunting when you're standing in the middle of it but a little goes a long way. We're making progress. Maybe the grass and weeds would slow down if it would stop raining.
5. Watched a LOT of decorating and design shows with a little Food Network in there, too. Hey, when you don't have to compete with the kids for the TV. . . . It's nice to be able to watch some grown-up TV every once in a while.
6. Decluttered some of Zack's and Matt's clothes. They're gonna come home and wonder where all their clothes disappeared to. It seriously needed to be done though. I'll work on Todd's next.
7. Dusted the entertainment center. That's a big chore. Only happens once every 3 months or so.
I guess that's about it so far. I have plans for other things but I'm not sure what else will get done before Friday. Tomorrow is bill day. Oh, the joy! Not. It cuts into my ME time.
