My day

Lots to do today...Our 3 kids we do respite for once a month are coming today.   My kitchen is a mess, my room is even messier, but hey, at least I got all the laundry finished.  I washed all the bedding that we own yesterday; which is quite a bit for 5 beds, plus extras. :-)  I've got to go to the grocery store- which means I need to look at the sales papers and make a list.  I've got 23 books due at the library and 2 that are overdue, so I need to round them all up and take them in.  AND, the big used book sale is Monday, so I need to finish going through my books and put prices on all of them.

Sometimes, I have to remind myself to just do the next thing.  When I think of everything all at once I get very overwhelmed.  I am so grateful that I have a beautiful family that I can do things for and take care of.  Today is a day I need to run through my many blessings instead of my to do list.

I sure hope this rain stops (al least until bedtime).  5 kids plus two adults in our less than 1000 sq ft home is likely to cause some tension.  The kids need to be able to run around.  Outside preferably.  I've got 3 skirts that someone gave Taylor that are WAY too short for her to wear, so the girls and I are going to turn them into pocketbooks while John takes the boys to the Home Depot Kids Workshop tomorrow.  That'll give us something to do if the rain continues.
