This is a good idea. I would really like to have something to keep me accountable.
Here lately no chores are getting done until i realize that its like 20 mins and dh will be home soon.
So we rush around trying to at least make it look like i did something.
Today is Sunday so no chores here but tomorrow oh boy long list.

Oh, this was my motivation thread before. I have been so lazy this past week, but I have laundry to do, a house to clean, and I still have tiles in my basement to pull up by Wednesday. AND our exchange student arrives on Thursday so I have to shop for a gift for him, and then put a birthday party together for him since his birthday is like 2 days after he gets here. We are going to keep it small. Us and our parents and sibs. Burgers on the grill and cake. Oh gosh, I need to get going on all of this.

I'm curious...does everyone have a daily routine that sticks every day?
For example, when I wake up I:
-make a cup of tea
-check email and forums
-exercise
-daily devotional reading

Today I need to...
- Do laundry (I have a washer-dryer combo. Which means it's small, plus it takes almost 4 hours to do a single load. So I do laundry all the time.)
- Tidy up and vacuum
- Clean the bathrooms
- Figure out how to implement a tree control in the rather sparse Microsoft Silverlight browser plugin which requires at least 3 languages, and does not technically support tree controls. Le sigh.
- Deal with a problematic investment company
- See if we have the proper licensing through yet for the image processing stuff that I was going to run code interface tests on last Friday (it crashed, which is when I realized we were lacking 1 out of 5 licenses. meh.)
- Make dinner at some point (I'm thinking I'll make some homemade pita bread and hummus with a little marinated chicken, because I have some cucumbers that need eaten)
I have to pack more into my days this week as we're taking friday through monday off. And by "taking off", I mean "driving to our previous house in the mountains and working desperately on getting the heating system installed before the snow flies so we can rent the thing". I am sore from this weekend, but I should be okay by then. Don't tell my obstetrician. *sigh*
Every weekday we go outside 10:30 to 11 to play in the park (weather permitting), have lunch around 11 when we get back inside, then baby has a nap until around 3. That's when I get most of my work done. hehehe.
I love lists. They make me feel like I'm getting stuff done. hee.
Eep. Time to sunscreen up the baby and head out the door.

Ok, today I got through tons of papers. I am so proud of that because we had so many papers from the old house, then from the move, and we have been accumulating more than what we have been able to sort through and get rid of. I am almost decluttered!!!!!!!!! Oh, and my house is straightened, but I didn't do dishes or scrub bathrooms and floors.

I get up when LO wakes up
Give him a bottle
Get him settled to play
Grab a cup of coffee
Check email/facebook/CW
Get breakfast for LO and me
Play, put him down for nap
That's it usually, unless we have to be somewhere in the morning.
I cleaned my house spotless yesterday because i had a Norwex party last night.
Today I need to:
-Clean blueberries (about 20 lbs of them)
-Laundry
-Go for a walk or do my workout video.

So, today I need to:
- Clean the bathrooms
- Licensing came in this morning, so I have to run those code tests I tried to run Friday, if nothing else goes horribly wrong
- Work on that tree control some more
- Do more laundry and fold the laundry from yesterday
- Tidy up the house (constant necessity with 18 month old. hehe)
- Figure out what I'm making for dinner
- Go grocery shopping (this will have to wait until hubby gets home so I can have the car. After all the work this weekend and being 4 months pregnant, I'm not in the mood to walk 2 miles pushing a stroller in 90 degree weather a mile above sea level)

Hi all.
OK my day is totally off already. My mom called last night and wanted me to come out this morning. So we went out there at 8 this morning. Ah so tired. The kids are fighting so they must be tired.
I still need to clean the bathroom(I would assign to someone else but I is it)
Finish the laundry
Sweep the floors
Plan the grocery list when the paper comes in mail
