...had my carpets cleaned. I love what a difference it made in the feel of my family room. I love clean!
...changed 7 stinky diapers. What!? Of course there were no stinky diapers to be found when Daddy was around to change them.
...cut the hair of three of my darling boys. Sawyer's curls remain in tact though.
...took Emma to her very first violin lesson. She was so excited. She learned how to place her feet, the "Mississippi hot dog" rhythm for Twinkle, how to bow and say "Thank you for teaching me." I learned how to help her position her bow. Of course since I am, well was a cellist it was no big deal. We're flying through this violin stuff. She'll be playing concertos in no time. Hah!
...mopped my very, very dirty kitchen floor
...folded six loads of laundry. I failed to get them put away though. That is my downfall every time.
....took way too many short snoozes on the couch because I was so tired after staying up too late last night.
...didn't get any schoolwork done with Slade and Emma. I was planning to get back into our regular schedule since school started for the rest of the neighborhood today. However, I didn't factor in the noise of the carpet cleaner. By the time he was finished it was lunchtime. And then all the kindergartners and younger siblings who weren't in school were over to play. Better luck tomorrow.
What did you do today?

I have the hardest time putting clothes away as well! I want kids old enough to do that themselves. And I should mop my floor today.
Good Work!
Just another day in the life of a mom, at least of a mom who cares.
today I stayed home from work to help tired with with sick kids, cleaning up the aftermath of the night of throwing up and all that fun stuff.
Seems like everyone got a bit of a stomach bug, and Caleb and Alec took it out on their beds. So I got to do lots of laundry, steam-vac carpets and mattresses, other fun stuff.
I was supposed to be teaching a two-day class at work today and tomorrow, so I postponed that til next week. I did manage to 'escape' to work for a few hours this evening, where I find myself now.
You got so much done! Today I hung out with Claudia and her little boys while she did laundry at my house, blogged, went to Landon's soccer game and yelled until my throat hurt, wrote some notes--not a super productive day, but a good day.
In the past FEW days, I've:
Picked up my kids from my sister's house--goodbye silence, hello noise. But I missed them.
Took a spin class. Really hard but very fun!
Made easy-bake cakes with the kids. (Thereby eliminating all good done by spin class.)
Seen the doctor about my hip problems. Getting old!! Found out I can't run anymore. Having mixed feelings about that.
Discovered a new band I like.
Read your blog. Made me smile, as usual!
