Happy Monday my friends! Thanks to all of you who shared your to-do list this weekend. I hope you had a fun-filled weekend filled with getting some things done! Here’s my progress report.
Play List
- Movie night with friends. Check!
- Boot camp. Check…and I’m still discovering muscles. How can this be?
- Attend Tae Kwon Do tournament. Check!
- Take photos. Check…but will do take more tonight before class tomorrow.
To Finish
- Finish spring clean-out in my daughter’s room. Check! Okay, we didn’t technically finish everything…but boy did we make a lot of progress. And best yet, we had a lot of fun in the process, too. So I’m giving us a check on this one!
- Start + finish laundry. Almost a check. I have one more load to dry, and two left to fold.
- Plan weekly meals + make grocery list. Check.
- Clean. Check. In addition to my daughter’s room, I also spring cleaned the master bedroom.
- More summer planning. Nope.
- Make eye doctor appointment. Check.
- Maybe plant some flowers. (If the above gets done AND it’s nice this weekend.) I looked for flowers…but didn’t find what I wanted. So…maybe I’ll do this next weekend…or one night this week.
How did you do with your weekend to-do list? Thanks for sharing!
How can you still be finding more muscles? Probably because there are more than 600 in the human body just waiting to remind you of their presence!

I’ve been away a few weeks and told myself I couldn’t check blogs and such untill I completed a very daunting task…. brain washing my 10 year old daughter to be organized.
Nothing was working until I was contemplating re-doing her room this summer. I told her my plan to take her form messy marvin to the princess of clean room. Again I helped her purge her clothing that didn’t fit and she didn’t like (she has an older sister who gives her wonderful things… too often) .. we found a home for what was left… american girls packed in a trunk in the basement still accessable, but not in the room. Off to a great start and the next day …. even after the major purge… stuff on the floor hangers on the floor dirty and clean clothes on the bed bed un made…. I cried as I told her that the summer plan has been canceled. I told her I don’t think I will ever train her to be organized because she obviously doesn’t want to be… and so then why reward her for being messy.
Giess what… she cried too.
And now she has had a clean room for 2 weeks… and we might shop for paint yet:)
A while back you introducted me to Erin Condren products. I was disappointed you never showed a post of your new 2011 calendar and how you like it… SO do you like the wall calendar?
@Mary, Thanks – I feel better now. It’s not that I’m out of shape, it’s that I have a lot of muscles. 🙂
@ Skye, I do love my Erin Condren calendar. Sorry I didn’t mention it before. It’s very colorful and nice. I’ll try to post a photo sometime. 🙂
