Good morning my O-Fam!
How is everyone today? I am a bit sore and achy- but I feel like I got a lot done yesterday. I pulled a Sally. ;)
I steam cleaned all of my carpets downstairs, LR, DR, hallway,my "office" and my BR. 3 times- one with cleaner, one plain water rinse, and one with water and rosemary and lemon essential oils mixed in. Mmm! The house smells so clean! and *knocks wood* so far, so good- none of the animals have peed/puked on it.....yet....
Then I went upstairs and worked on Scott's room. How can boys be so dang messy? I was going to steam clean his room, but after cleaning up the crap and vacuuming, I decided to put it off to today. I took a break, had lunch and then did yard work for a couple of hours. Came in, and had to work on MIL's website. Then dinner, helped Scott study for Social Studies, then a glass of wine and the season finale of Vamp. Diaries.

Today I have to go food shopping, a ton of phone calls to find out about the kids' health insurance status- (no, they still do not have health ins! Now is it since May1!) plus get a credible coverage cert. for me....steam clean Scott's carpet and then he has a drs appt at 4 pm.

Busy busy!
Oh one last thing-- does anyone know how to make photos into thumbnails in Dreamweaver? I used a "web" compression on the jpgs and they look really poor. I want to have the page (image heavy) load quickly, but want to be able to show off the details of the tote. My MIL designed e-reader Tote patterns and they are really neat.

Tip for Tues. When you steam clean your carpets, if you do a rinse with water, you can add essential oils to the "final rinse" I picked lemon and rosemary because they are bright and cheery and energizing. But for a bedroom you might want to pick relaxing- like lavender or romantic like ylang ylang. Rosemary is also good for memory so that would be great for an office or den :)
 
morning all - Chris sounds like you were so very productive with the steam cleaning.

Andrea- the sleepy stage now- I have that and I am not pregnant!

Today- work and at home if not raining when i get home,mow the dogs pen and clean house- bet there will be a new 52 inspiration kit to play with tonight as well!
 
Linda- school will be out before you know it- we still have 2 weeks and 2 days. June 23 for Cait and June 24 for Scott (if he graduates..)
I think your schedule is a great idea. Sorry to hear that you have more taxi-time. :car:

Laurie- that is a really good idea- he is very much an auditory learner, way more than reading and retaining. He can recite lines from movies perfectly that he has only seen once. That is why I am trying so hard to talk about what he is reviewing (and that is one thing I am good at) There is a You Tube video with hand gestures he was telling me about that helps to remember the Bill of Rights. I am going to search that up and email it to him.
I'll see if they have any other posted up as well. :)

Andrea- ITA- the peeing pots cracked me up too. Hope that the fatigue passes quickly for you. I shipped your package yesterday- hope it gets to you soon.

To all my O-Fam xoxoxo
 
WOOOOOO HOOOOOO!!! DO YOU KNOW WHAT TODAY IS??????

besides Tuesday:doh:


:bday to my first born baby girl!! Only not so much of a baby...she is 27 yo today!!! YIKES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! D$%! I am OLD AS DIRT!!! UUhhhhh No I am NOT!!!!


I am getting ready to call her and see if her co workers are taking her out for lunch..she said yesterday she did not know if they were or not!!

I better run......gotta shower...I have been cleaning this morning...I am gross!!!
 
Morning all....sounds like everyone is crazy busy today. I am still in my pj's and enjoying a very lazy morning, but must get my act together and get shopping for my grandson's 2nd birthday gift. It will most likely be as much to mail it out to him as the cost of the gift, darn postal service. :frusty: Wish I could be with him on his big day, but he lives three provinces away and I am out of airmiles to travel by plane. Oh well we will celebrate again when they come home for our family reunion. Yea!!!
Linda... you are not as old as dirt (if you are than I am too) Hope your daughter has a great birthday!
Laurie... you sure you don't want to come over and cut my grass also??
Chris... you are a cleaning machine, darn no carpets in my house for you to come over and clean. But i would love to share a pot of coffee with you.
Hope everyone has a great Monday...off to shop :wave:
 
I am so missing you guys!! Wish I could stay and visit but I wanted to say hi and see what you were all up to. I must make sure you don't forget me in my craziness!! LOL!! This will all be done before I know it.

Movers come a week from tomorrow. I went through Addie's room today...3-4 bags of goodwill and 1 whole bag of trash. It is unreal what we collect. Tomorrow Ethan's room before heading up for wedding stuff after the guest book shows up in the mail.

Have I mentioned lately that I love you guys!!
