It's Monday!! What are you doing?

It's the start of a brand new week - what's on your agenda?

I'm starting the week with a trip to Whole Foods (aka Whole Paycheck) and the dog food store. Tomorrow, I am taking a good friend out to lunch. Our local culinary center does this fun chef's special on Tuesdays. My little one is (finally!) back to preschool tomorrow after our Flu episode, so I am hoping to settle in for a normal week. Not too exciting, but much needed. LOL
 
grocery shopping today--with my boys, not my favorite idea, but we need food :)
we have their first soccer meeting tomorrow night
starting a photography class (Oh Shoot!) at Jessica Sprague (anyone else taking it?)
and of course, just crazy life stuff!
 
Today is laundry and hopefully a bit of scrapping.
Tomorrow I am going to my parents for my dad's birthday and dropping the boys off for a couple days. So it will just be me and Stella until Thursday! craziness!
Saturday is Gabe's 7th birthday so I will mostly just be cleaning and getting the house together. :)
 
I join ya'll in grocery shopping!
my head feels like a beach ball full of well uhgk...lol
I have to admit to being a bit excited about the BYOC for tomorrow here at the LIlyPad, and ready to do some mad scrapping for Feb wrap up.
School today, and the kids are staring at me, must be time to start...off I go!
 
Becky - that class looks great! I wish I had time for it right now. You'll have to let us know how it goes!

Crystal - how fun to have some girl time with Stella...and yay for Gabe's birthday! :)

Anne - hope your head feels better soon...oh...and the BYOC is always the first Friday of the month, so you have a few more days to wait. I promise it's an AMAZING one this month though!
 
haha. atleast I feel better knowing I'm not the only one at the grocery store today! I totally slacked this weekend b/c hubby was sick. I have been sick for the past couple of weeks so things are piling up. My life this week is with my head in the books for school. I have a proposal due by next Monday. Of course this morning, I did the important stuff and got those BYOC layouts done for my designers...lol.

Becky I took that class prbly about a year ago. I really really enjoyed it and feel that I learned a lot from it!
 
Definitely recommend the Oh, Shoot class!

Today I'm sitting at home watching all the severe thunderstorm warnings flash across the TV screen. :) It was supposed to be my big grocery day, but I decided we can have leftovers so I don't have to shop during stormy weather.

noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo,:waiting I thought it was tomorrow, the horror! :madnessI guess I will clean my house...

ha ha no smilie vacuuming! bha haha:giggle
 
well... we have no food... so I'm suppose to be grocery shopping. However, I've been sick for the last couple of weeks and DS was sick the week before that :td so I really haven't done ANYTHING for myself in a while. Target is beside the grocery store.... hmmmmm. :shopping Target won. Looks like a pizza night!

The rest of the week is filled with getting the projects that got put off due to illness, DONE! The kitchen and bathroom are getting painted tomorrow and one day this week I'm going to put up crown moulding in the living room... all by myself! This is my surprise to my hubby while he is out of town. I REALLY hope I don't screw it up! :giggle

I'm hoping to get to a couple of craft projects but I have a feeling I won't have time. Oh... and I'm scrapping. :happydance2 yaaaaay for feeling a bit better!
 
I'm still getting things set up right on my computer now that it's back up and running (it's amazing how many little things you can forget to do such as installing print drivers and Evernote web clipper). I'm hoping to make the weekly chat at Log Your Memory this afternoon depending on how the next couple of hours go, plus cleaning, laundry, dinner..the usual.
 
hmmmm its birthday week for my hubby and youngest son so ill be shopping ( like i need an excuse to shop LOL)
im busy right now trying to finish my denim kit
then i will scrap maybe.
kids are back in school after the week off so right now im just enjoying the quiet
 
my daughter woke up this morning exclaiming "it's the start of a BIG week!" and it is! Movers are at my mom's house in California packing her up for the truck tomorrow! She will be moving into a retirement community about 12 minutes from my home!
Tonight we have my daughter's spring program at school. Wednesday I go and get mom's keys for her new apartment. Friday we pick mom up at the airport! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
well i spent the ENTIRE day on the phone working out details of mortgage financing, moving, closing, and insurance. yippeee (with a HINT of sarcasm)!!

Tomorrow I will be doing a general clean-up and laundry, since that got neglected last week with sick kids and so many snow days. it is just a fruitless effort to clean with three kids couped up in the house. nope, not happening.

Other than that, the rest of the week will be spent ironing out details, getting inspections, and hopefully finding some scrap time in there somewhere! I NEED to be creative before all these details mush my brain!
 
Well my mom arrives tomorrow to spend 2 months down here! Yikes! Love my mom but 2 months? I will be a basket case! So last minute trying to get the house clean after my youngest was sick for 2 weeks and of course got me sick!
 
I did a little grocery shopping and ran to Walmart which are an hour away. Tonight is my daughter's Spring concert too. Then not much but scrapping for the rest of the week. On Saturday my husband and I are going out of town alone for the night though! I'm SO excited!!
 
Nothing special this week. I work 40+ hours a week, so finding time to juggle my excercise schedule (I swim 2 nights a week and do some walk/running a couple other nights), the boys' sports schedules (soccer & swimming) and the hubster's school schedule is always a challenge. Oh, I guess I need to figure out what we're going to do in Washington DC over Spring Break - which is in 11 days! :dizzy
 
Today I got some scrapping done and made a new recipe for dinner (Skinnytaste's Sicilian Rice Ball Casserole). Tomorrow I have dinner plans and need to make a trip to the mall and take the kids for haircuts. I haven't planned what I need to do beyond that, but there is a huge pile of laundry hiding in the laundry room that I need to get to eventually.
 
Monday is almost always a work day. It's good though because I got a lot done at work.

Today I should be cleaning, but so far I'm just sitting here scrapping in my pj's with a cozy soft blanket wrapped around me. I'm totally being lazy!!
 
So, I decided I need some sort of medal for my outing yesterday:
2.5 hours
9 stops
twin 5 yr old boys (who have zero calm bones in their bodies)

and I escaped with my sanity!
