I had a remarkably productive day considering how tired I was.  I did several loads of laundry, read my Bible, updated both checkbooks, did some banking, mailed a couple of bills, did some grocery shopping, made dinner and bread, and took a friend's teenager out for a walk at the mall.  I also found a few things for school next year on our homeschool loop -- used, for a good price.  Most of them are really extras, but for a few dollars I was able to "treat us".  I also spent a couple of hours reading to my kids from The Witch of Blackbird Pond.  They kept saying, "One more chapter, PLEASE!!"  So I kept reading.  My ds even gave up evening electronics privileges to hear more of the story!  In our house, that's a HUGE deal!    Oh, and I managed time for a short nap, too.  (I love quiet time.) 

      I'd better return to my laundry since I'm supposed to be leaving for ICHE tomorrow morning.  I hope to see many of you there!!
