This Week At Home, 2013, No. 6

Little notes written in order to remember each precious day...

The only picture I took this week!  Oh my.  I will try to do better next week. 

Monday the 4th...

Today was our 100th day of school!  Yippee!  We did the barest essentials of school work and then headed to Nana's.  The kids have not seen her new home, so this was a very exciting day.  But first, we ate lunch at Nana's and watched Downton Abbey on her giant TV.  The new house is marvelous, but was left pretty dirty, so there is much to be done there this week.  The kids had fun playing hide and seek in the empty house. This week Jeff starts working late. Taxing season is game on! 

Tuesday the 5th...

It's another sunny day with a high of 37, which now feels like a pretty warm day!  We worked hard getting lessons back on track,and laundry caught up,too.  I made a wonderful dish called Chili and Cornbread Dumplings for dinner.  Oh my!  I also worked on Flylady's detailed cleaning list for the kitchen today.  My kitchen needs a deep clean! 


Wednesday the 6th...

This is always the hardest, longest day for me, but it's filled with good things.  We did lessons in the morning.  Ate our quick lunch, and then I took Grace to art.  I was able to spend an hour with my dear friend while Grace was at art.  Then, we went home and got back to work on chores. AWANA was fun, but my girls got the giggles during counsel time and wouldn't pay attention.  :( 


Thursday the 7th...

This was another crazy day!  In the morning, Grace and I went to Costco and Trader Joe's.  We got home, put things away and had lunch.  Then we worked on lessons.  Things seemed to go well until I forgot Trevor had technical rehearsal tonight.  And Ryan was going to karate.  Thankfully they are both at church, just different times.  But I couldn't find what time rehearsal was and so we ended up going not knowing.  I felt out of sorts, but it all worked out.  We were on time for Ryan and early for Trevor, the best senario.  Jeff got home, ate his dinner and then went to get the boys.  I am so glad I don't have many days like this! 


Friday the 8th...

Today's mission was to finish the long kitchen list and get us ready for small group tonight.  We also had to finish our lessons, but there was not a lot to do on that end, thankfully.  The house got finished.  I have two chickens roasting in the oven.  I am about to go make brownies for tonight. 

Have a great weekend! Tomorrow and Sunday I'm going to help Mom. They move on Monday.  It's all very exciting!

  1. Haha that DD got the only picture for the week. Moves are exciting! I wish your mom the best. Sounds like a great week, too bad tax season has to come so soon (or last so long). Have a fun small group tonight & a great weekend!
