A day in my life. . .

Some days I'm pretty lazy and other days I work all day long.  Today was a working day.  I like those better because I don't feel guilty at the end of them.  . .

Things I did today:
*Took a shower. I know, it's pitiful, but this is an accomplishment.
*Did three loads of laundry and made sure they were put away- also a big deal. Sad. 
*Put the collapsed shelves back up in the linen closet and refolded the stuff that had fallen down.
*Helped Audrey sort her shoes, took away the too small ones, found some for Clara in the basement
* put extra shoes away in basement
*straightened the living room twice
*vacuumed the living room
*swept the dining room and wiped the table
*unloaded the dw, loaded it and started it
*cleaned up the kitchen and hand washed big dishes
*took R to the ortho, got a present ready and took Audrey to a party, fed lunch to little people, cleaned up after them
*deep cleaned my room. This was a long project.  Who knew there was that much dust under my bed?
*vacuumed my room, the hallway, the spare room, and the family room
*straightened the spare room
*got girls to clean the very messy family room
*cut holes in an ice cream bucket and put the bathtub toys in it to make showering in there easier
*went through Emmeline’s clothes and put away the ones that are too small so that the rest will fit in her dresser, hung up the dresses.
*found a basket for E’s shoes and put them in it.  Her dresser looks much better.
*worked on putting away the misc. from the car and the floor that I had shoved into two laundry baskets. Almost done with that.
*renewed Judd’s library stuff. Let him know the one that wouldn’t renew.  Renewed mine too.
*found several missing socks, Amy’s library card, and some pillowcases I had been looking for
*researched how to make my own dishwashing liquid so I can save more money
*spent 20 minutes brushing, flossing , mouthwashing , and water picking. SO MUCH FUN!
*pulled out Valentine’s decorations- a little late, and put them up. The kids were thrilled
* walked 3 miles
*hot glued Amy's Valentine's box from last year to make it presentable for this year.
* And most importantly, made the groundhog feel like she can fit in for Valentine’s Day
