Hubby is working. Boys are at a cousin's house for 3 days and I'm home alone!!! So many projects I could be working on:

plant more carrots
sew another cotton skirt
sew up more feminine protection pads
clean out a closet
make my shadow box with vintage patterns and buttons
hang out another load of laundry
vacuum the rug
dust the furniture
watch a chick-flick
work on photo albums
package some homeschool books I sold on ebay yesterday
take those packages to the PO
plan my mom & dad's 60th birthday party
give the Yorkies their baths

Oh so many things! I can't decide!! All I want to do is sit here and read this forum!

What's a girl to do

I say read the forum, and then pick something off your list!

Oney enjoy your days off :)

If it were me, I would get rid of the priority tasks so I could relax when that's done and not have it hanging over my head. Or...
You could make up a new skirt to wear while running errands :)

Have fun whatever you do

Oney, I know how you feel. I was going to my parents home today but they were not home so I decided to clean my bedroom. Which I did start but this is the 3ad time I've been on the computer and I always come to across the fence first. I should be weeding my garden or starting supper or doing something besides sitting here still in my pj's which I'm never in past 8am and it's now 12:45pm. Ouch, I got to go.

Hope all your days are Sunnydays.

Well...I'm here too!

Today is my Ds's birthday. I have made him a German Chocolate Cake(his favorite) and now I should be cleaning up and getting ready for dinner.

My excuse for sitting here instead...just tired. I have cramps today and just feel like a slug. No matter...I still have to host a birthday today.

The things we do for love!

Heather,
I love your answer!!!

Oney - Sometimes you just need to take a break. Afterwards, you can attack that to do list with new energy!!!

Oney:
I suggest do a chore, chat with the MJF, eat a brownie, dance to a song, do a chore, chat with the MJF, eat two brownies, dance to three songs, etc...
