Tackle It Tuesday

Here was my list at the start of today:

1. MIA - wrap up for November. Start paperwork required for December.

2. Picture ornaments - complete.

3. Christmas Newsletter - begin.

4. Laundry - get moving on it.

5. Invitations - address for mailing.

6. Kitchen - clean countertops, stovetop, dishes, finish making apple crisps (I made four yesterday and froze three of them). Clean out fridge.

7. Vac the downstairs.

8. Decide menu for party (what the invitations in #5 are for).

9. Go through the paper. Write shopping list and secure coupons for stated shopping.

10. Go through schedule folder and fill in calendar as needed.

11. Continue working on current baby afghan.

Do I really expect to get it ALL done. NO. But I have already accomplished a good deal. Barber had a playdate with pumpkin pie. My kids always play so well together with theirs - it actually makes less work for me! They played trains, cars, giggled, ate together and tackled tough issues like the fact that boys do not have babies in their bellies. Only girls do that. When they are all grown up of course!

Meanwhile I was able to bake two more apple crisps and get the kitchen straightened again (just have a few more dishes to complete), vac'd the downstairs...basically I accomplished #6, 7, 9 and 10. We'll see what else I am able to cross off my list before I go to bed tonight.

Oh...one more thing to add to the list...dinner...hmmm I'm thinking pizza!
