Well, here we go. My Wednesdays have been full this (academic) year. Today is no different. - Between 7AM and 5 PM, I have ten lessons scheduled.
- I woke up to an announcement of a meeting (one on one) with a platform that I hope to teach through next year. I squeezed that in.
- Beyond that I only care about doing a quick tidy in the front living room and checking the boys' bath. I won't have time to do a thorough clean, but I can wipe down the sink & counters. If it's really bad, then I will strong-arm DS3 into doing some of it.
- Church tonight.
At some point today, I will put dinner in the slow cooker.
Have a good one.

Good morning ladies!
The plumber yesterday didn't get here until 4, and then basically told us that they needed to jackhammer up the floor and find the issue. No price, no using a camera, no nothing. Um, no! So we have another plumber coming today. They even gave us a quote for the diagnostic visit. Also, the water main around the corner from us broke yesterday as well. We didn't loose water, but it was off colored for a good while (thankfully we had bottled water). Between the two, bathrooms didn't get cleaned.
As for today, so far my morning routine is done and I just heard the dishtowels ending in the washer. At some point today I will clean the bathrooms, do the dusting, and use the wood cleaner on the dining room table.
We also have church tonight.

Good Morning Ladies! Sandra you always have a full plate!
Michelle, I had an appliance guy do that. I hired someone else. The first guy charged me $100 diagnostic and all he did was look in the freezer, quote me $500, cash up front and chit chat. The 2nd guy did a thorough inspection of the fridge and said even if I replaced the compressor, Frigidaire only warranted it for 3 months so I was better off just getting a new fridge. No charge for his diagnostic.
Yesterday was my busy day. It was MJ's pay day so all the bills got paid money got set aside for his insurance and so on.
Today i will do the house piddling. I want to clean the laundry room. It wouldn't be such a mess if we didn't have cats. Tidy the kitchen Clear the front table.
And beging reading the material for the Bible study.
Have a blessed day ladies.

Today so far, bed made, quiet time done, cat fed, cat box scooped (Ryan usually has this chore but his ride came early). I am doing a load of scrubs and have prepped part of tonight's dinner. I am going on a long walk to Island Park for exercise, and am dropping off egg cartons to the Farm Store on the way. They are recycling the cartons now, which I appreciate. I am making a fairly big meal plus I have choir tonight, but hope to make time to do some cleaning in the living room.

We had to have three female dogs at the vet before 8am to be fixed. It took both dh & I to get them there. Once I got back home I took my meds, fixed brunch, put away eggs I gathered last night, and drew up four oral syringes of wormer for dh to administer to the male goats. I'm apprehensive about going into their pen. Two of them are huge and even though I don't have monthly cycles anymore they can get "horny" around me. If a woman has monthly cycles bucks can get really bad. I need to sweep and wash dishes. We had the three long haired, triple thick coated dogs inside all night so there's dog hair all over the floor. I also need to clean & organize the pantry....again. Then we pick up the dogs sometime after 4:00. We have Bible Study tonight.

Well, the plumber came. This guy had booties on his feet, is confident in his diagnosis, even if he couldn't use the camera (we literally have no accessible cleanouts) and gave us a quote that includes neatly removing floor planks and putting them back, plus giving us a cleanout on the drain that they are working on, plus on the other stack, plus they will scope the entire line.
And the amount that was quoted is just slightly under our tax return (with all of my job changes, we majorly over withheld last year).

Michelle, I think God knew about this and so has you withhold what you needed to. I don't believe in coincidences.

Michelle, I hope it all gets fixed for you soon. Our kitchen sink cupboard still stinks of mold from the leak and we're saving up to get a replacement. So far we haven't found anything cheap. Plumbing issues are so bothersome! Like Mel, I think it's no coincidence about the cost being your amount of tax refund!
I hadn't planned on going anywhere today. We had doctor appointments the last 2 days and I really wanted/needed to stay home, but I have a customer who suddenly needed to meet this evening. At least I have most of the day to rest.
The doctor did (finally) find something wrong on my scans and is sending me to two different specialists. I really hope they can help me. I'm tired of being sick and tired.
