Productive Day

Writing this 2nd post today has made my day very productive. There has been so much done today. The house being inspected and sprayed. Cayce getting his building fixed up a little. Samantha's new car seat in the car. But there is still so much to be done.

Tomorrow's to do list is:
  • get a new kitchen table
  • get a price check on ink and printer paper
  • sort baby clothes
  • type recipes that i have already made
All that along with housework, taking care of the kids, homeschooling samantha, and keeping myself sane.

Plans for tonight is to finish dishes, put Cayce's pants away, give the girls a bath and put them to bed. A new episode of The Americans comes on tongiht, and Cayce and I watch it every Wednesday. It's so good.

Chore Day

After a long and frusturating night, I went to bed and sleep great. I don't know how, but I woke up at 10:30 this morning. It felt so great, and Cayce and I haven't argued once today. We did favors or one another and he is thinking about building me a book shlef to put under the bed because I want my books out of boxes. They have been in there TOO LONG!!

I have done two loads of dishes. I have no dishwasher, so I have to wash them by hand, and it is very draining and aggrevating. I have done 2 loads of laundry and not done yet. I put up Samantha's clothes and got clean sheets and blankets out for their beds. I'm waiting for miss Adalyn to wake up from her nap, so I can put up her clothes and get hangers out of her room for Ariana's clothes.

Cayce took the girls outside to let them play while he works on his sawbucks. I'm going to go out there in a little bit and help him paint them, and possibly rake a little bit. We are having tacos tonight for dinner and we are going to make some spaghetti for the freezer.

We are considering Swagbucks to be my job. I work so hard on it and I'm hoping that I won't get any tax thing in the mail.

I have to go now because Samantha is handing me my shoes.

Way Behind Schedule

I'm way behind schedule. Yesterday when we woke up, Cayce told me that he wanted me to stop doing Swagbucks. After everything I have gotten him, he wants me to quit. I voiced all of my opinions and then went outside with him and raked, while he took nails and staples out of plywood.

I felt so attacked when he told me that I didn't have a very good day. I didn't get what I wanted to do, done. So I had to push it back to today. I felt mini panic attacks throughout the day.

I got the toys sorted this morning, and I have to do dishes in a little bit. Cayce keeps bothering me to go outside with him, but it is just TOO cold.

My anxiety is on the low level this morning, and hope it stays this way.

Goals Met

I have been doing so much today. I finally got Samantha's and Ariana's clothes put away, and realized that I have to go through their toys and sort them, so I can get my blue tubs back so I can seperate baby clothes by winter and summer. I got some dishes washed, and I met my swagbucks goal early and still working on my personal goal. I got Sammy's school work caught up and ready to do more work tomorrow.

Cayce had to go finish helping my dad this morning and he finally got the plywood and metal so we can start working on expanding our building.

My goals for the rest of the night is to finish dishes.
Get a load of Cayce's pants in the washing machine.
Try to get the number and letter book in order so I can get it done within the next week or two.
Type two recipes up.

I have some goals for tomorrow that I will post in the morning.

Bye!!

Productive and Tiring Day

Cayce woke me up so early this morning. I wasn't going to go with him to do the errands, but I didn't want to be left alone with the girls, doing housework. So, we did our shopping. We ended up coming back home an hour later and spent time outside because the weather was so nice. 77 degrees in January. It felt amazing. I just hope that we continue to have this nice weather, and also be this gorgeous on February 8th.

We came home and I looked on the Applebees website to see if they have lunch hours and dinner hours and found car side to go. So we called in our order and Cayce went and picked it up and paid the car insurance. We have been relaxing and playing all day.

I got two loads of dishes washed and working on the second load of clothes in the washing machine. I don't know what we are going to do tomorrow. We are going to Kmart to buy two DVD's for the girls. The Doc McStuffins movie and Jake and the Neverland Pirates movie. I want to take the kids to the park or the riverwalk, but it all depends on Cayce.

Well, I'm going to give the girls a little snack and get them ready for bed. I'm going to watch some more Ghost Adventures tonight. I really hope we go to the riverwalk tomorrow because I have never been and I think the kids will like it.

Good Night

I Had A Great Weekend!!

I spent the entire weekend with Cayce and the kids. On Friday night, Cayce came home and cooked neckbones and rice with some field peas and snaps for dinner. We played with the girls and had a tea party. On Saturday, Cayce and I spent the day doing relaxing things but spent time together and the girls played and watched tv. Cayce got a new game and he played it all day on Saturday and I was doing swagbucks all day. We didn't do any household chores, and we went shopping. We got some more food, movies and neccessities for the house.

Yesterday, We cleaned the house and I sent Cayce to Kmart and Bi-Lo. He got the meal deals from Bi-Lo and Cayce got some more things that we needed. I made beef stew in the crock pot last night and it was delicious.

I have been working my butt off on Swagbucks. Hopefully, I'll be getting the big box of wipes tomorrow. I'm working on getting the Wii Turbo wheel and gun for a game Cayce bought the other night.

This morning, Cayce took the car to the mechanic to get it fixed. That car had a bunch of problems, and it will be fixed today and wednesday. On Wednesday, the car will be getting realigned and tires rotated. We also get to pick up the girls christmas presents from the Salvation Army.

Well, I'm going to go cook supper.
Night All

Fun Day

Today didn't start off that great, but got better. Cayce went and paid some bills this morning and I didn't go because I had a terrible stomach ache. He brought breakfast home. We had Mcgriddles and McCafe's. I FINALLY started on Adalyn's closet, pulling out small clothes and putting in winter clothes. I'll finish by tomorrow afternoon.

We went shopping after I did dishes and more of Addy's closet. We looked at toys to get the girls for christmas and Cayce got more tools that he needed. We went to my parent's house after. Cayce raked leaves for my dad, and the girls spent some much needed time with my mom. I swear I have never heard my mom laugh so much at the girls. We talked about Swagbucks, and her work week.

When we came back home, we ate subway for dinner and the girls watched TV for the rest of the night till it was time for them to go to bed. Cayce found to 8 ft posts in the woods and plans on using them to expand our building.

Going back to my parents tomorrow to finish raking the leaves, and hoping to finish Addy's closet and start on Sam and Airy's closet.

Good Night Blogland!!!!!

Ready for Halloween

I'm so ready for Halloween. Last year, we were in the process of getting our house onto our land and moving that we didn't get to celebrate or take Samantha and Ariana trick or treating. This year, we will get to take all 3 of them. Cayce will get to have next Wednesday night off, so thats a big plus.

The girls already have their costumes and buckets ready to go. It's just weird to know that we have been in this house for almost a year, and we still have things in boxes and packed away in closets. I can't wait to have boxes unpacked and out of my walk in, so I can walk in and use my shelving at the top.

Hopefully we will be adding to Cayce's building outside this weekend.
Have a good night to whoever reads this.

GREAT WEEKEND!!!!!!!

I have had the best weekend. We got to spend time together without arguing. Cayce got alot of yard work done in the front yard yesterday, and some in the back and we got the house somewhat organized.

We have been playing video games most of the week and I am catching my goals everyday on swagbucks. The front yard will be looking good after next week, and the house will be ready for fall, and everything organized and in its proper place.

Didn't do any review with Samantha today, but we were asking her to count and say the two colors that we have been studying. Going to read to her tomorrow and get her to practice writing ABCD.

Wednesday morning will be grocery shopping day before Cayce goes to work, so tomorrow, I have to get our walmart list done and the coupons ready for that trip. Ready for Cayce to get paid on Thursday, so we can get all our bills paid, and get diapers and wipes for the kids.

Hope everyone has a good night.

Also, I'm going to be using this blog as a food journal also.

Nighty Night

WAY Past My Bedtime!!!!

I have been doing chores and other things non stop. I got all the clothes washed, got most of the dishes done and magazine cuts done. I'm still workin on my swagbucks. I met my goal for today, but I set a personal goal for me and I'm almost there.

I should go to bed because we have to get up in a few hours and go pay bills.

Night world!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Chores

Chores, that sums up yesterday and today. I have been feeling rushed, like I have to get things done. Cayce got his anniversary present last night. i got him a watch off swagbucks, and he loves it. Ariana's birthday present shipped yesterday and we went shopping today and I found more toys I want to get her. Gonna get some decorations and gift wrap next paycheck, then start gettin her gifts.

We also picked out what we are going to have for our Thanksgiving dinner. We like to plan our dinners months in advance so we know that we have our non perishables in stock, so all we have to get is perishable closer to the holiday. We don't have to worry about a turkey because Cayce's boss gives out turkeys to every employee for thanksgiving.

Since I have so many chores left to do, I am not cooking tonight. I have been craving cereal the past few days and we went shopping this morning and got some. So that's what we are having for dinner.

I'm gonna go for the night.
Bye

Busy Bee

Yesterday and today were so hectic. It didn't seem like I had a lot to do, but I sure was running around like a chicken with my head cut off. We took yesterday off from sammy's learning and let her have pretend play. She has been asking for a tea party and we finally had one.

Cayce sold all our scrap metal and aluminum this morning, and we got some gas, wipes and some fall candles for the living room. I know, wasteful spending, but I wont my house to smell good and the only thing we really needed at this point was wipes and gas. Hoping that Cayce's paycheck on thursday willcover all the bills and hopefully start getting some decorations for Ariana's party in October.

I've been wanting to get her a birthday Barbie off swagbucks and when I finally had enough to get it, it became out of stock. So, I ended up getting her a bear wooden puzzle tonight, and start gettin my swagbucks back up so I can eventually get those Barbies when they come back in stock.

I will post week 2 of Samantha's work tomorrow. We will be spending the whole day home relaxing and doing yard work.

Signing off for tonight. My hunny is playing Goldeneye on the Wii.
Adios

Cleaning and Organizing.

Had a rough start to the morning. Woke up sick and body pains all over. Spent most of the day working on my swagbucks goal, and now we are cleaning our bedroom.We rearranged our bed and I do not like the new setup, but apparently, I have no say so in the matter.

Got a teeny little bit of yard work done, but then Cayce got "bored". I think he got mad because I wouldn'y go out there an help him. Just ready to get the day over with and also tomorrow.

Having chef boyardee for supper, and have to finish my menu plans if Cayce will stop showing me stuff and tellin me that we dont need this or askin me questions on everything.

Sorry for my venting. Need to go back to cleaning my filthy house.

Happy Friday

Happy Friday ya'll. Hope everyone out there in blog land had a good day. My day didn't start off really good, but it gradually got better.

I got my grocery list done and fixing to start on my menu plan for the rest of the month. When we go shopping, we buy enough to last the whole month, to save gas and we have other errands to do. I normally make meals from scratch but on Mondays, Thursday, and sometimes weekends, I'll do a simple meal, like Hamburger Helper or Pizza.

Now, I'm waiting for Cayce to come home from work. I plan on making some pork tenderloin and wild rice for dinner. I usually do a crushed cracker pork tenderloin. I might do that or just put it in the oven with some seasonings.

Well, I have a busy weekend ahead of me. Yard work, library, and Ace tomorrow to get a free quart of paint. And Sunday is the dreaded shopping day.

It's time for me to go for tonight. I got to get dinner started because Ghost Adventures comes on tonight at 7:00, and I didn't watch them last week. *GASP* I know.

Bye-Bye!!!
