We got home late yesterday evening and got most of the unpacking done. So far this morning the bed is made, quiet time is done, breakfast is eaten, cleaned up and prepped for tomorrow, and I got myself ready for the day. I've also made my lunches for the rest of the week, washed, dried and folded the sheets from the trip, washed and hung a load of pajamas and right now the jeans are in the washer. I've also cleaned the bathrooms and put away the grocery type stuff that we bought. Now I am getting ready to sit down and go through my email, set up my planner for the week and see what all needs to be accomplished this week at my current job and in preparation for starting my new job. I also need to deal with stuff at my temp job.
Tonight I'm going to get my hair done.

Two nights in a row with not enough sleep. I feel exhausted, but am going to Bible study anyway. I have stayed isolated long enough in the past couple of weeks! So far, quiet time done. Brought in the trash cans. When I get home, have some cooking and baking to do plus ironing and I will see what I have the energy for.

This morning I took eggs & lotion to a customer, stopped by the store and post office. Animals are all fed. Need to pick up discarded produce later this afternoon. Working on the quilt.

Sandra, did the HVAC people show up yesterday? They did... and, in theory, plenty of time for them to finish before my next class began. BUT... he found some things that "needed" to be addressed. A "free" included visit was going to cost (according to him) around $600 - well, $800, but he was going to make us a deal. First of all, I knew we needed a new filter (we use a special filter that lasts for a year), and he missed that. Secondly, $397 of that was for a surge protector he said we ought to have. When he explained that... yes, we should... only THEY installed this system three years ago, so why didn't they install it then? Anyway, I told him I would consider those things and call him back... and then he got slower and slower (for sure finishing after I started teaching again). I really think he was stalling until DH got off the phone so, you know, they could talk man to man about these things that needed to be done. Well, he got stalled long enough that he DID get DH (I was teaching by the time he was "done" after all), but I bet it wasn't the conversation he hoped for. Today is going all right. I've had a lot of unexpected things to deal with online, but if it's going to happen, this is the best day of the week in terms of time flexibility. The weather is gorgeous. Fingers crossed that I can take a walk while the sun's still up.

Sandra, that is funny about him talking to your DH.
Merrileem, I'm glad that you are starting to feel better, and sorry about the lack of sleep.

So the ironing is done, cooking is done. After working from 8-3, Ryan was called into work for the night shift as well; the dishwasher just got fired. So some nice overtime, but a long day! This will give ME opportunity to get a few more things done around here. Win-win

A single mother from church is needing to cut a tree in her yard. She borrowed a chainsaw but doesn’t know how to use it so we are going over to help her. Just finished eating dinner. After helping her we’ll get the produce. Dh already gather 40 something eggs.
