- Amy M. sent me one of her genius etched-glass jars as a thank you gift for watching her girls last weekend. I love it!
Yesterday
- Hair appointment to take care of these nasty roots.
- Ran to mall to buy new sunglasses.
- Picked up 2 dozen Krispy Kremes (ate 2 for lunch).
- Ordered balloons.
- Checked kids out of school early.
- Picked up balloons.
- Drove to freakin Eagle Mountain.
- Vacuumed out car and washed interior of windows.
- Welcomed Home Mom, Robyn and Kids.
- Ran to Costco and then grocery store (so many slow drivers!).
- Book club dinner, 2 book discussions and book planning for 2008 at Michelle's 6:30-midnight.
Today
- Visiting Teaching (it's only the 8th woohoo).
- Got this cute thank-you gift (for the Conference basket) from a girl I visit teach.
- Run to Target, Kohl's, Old Navy and the bank.
- Signed Landon up for basketball (it starts in January, I'm NOT coaching).
- I finally got sucked this pesky spider up with the vacuum. It had the audacity to walk right across my table as I was setting my bags down! I had seen it on the curtains yesterday and then it scared the crap out of me when I reached down to unplug my iHome, but I didn't have time to take care of it then. I HATE SPIDERS! (I am breaking my own rule about not posting pictures of spiders, but it was on my table.)
- Home to prepare for tomorrow's road trip to California.
**What about you??**

That is busy with a capital B, but at least you're getting tons of stuff done! I always feel successful when I've accomplished things at the end of a busy day (or two). Good luck on your road trip tomorrow!
Do you need me to do anything while you are gone? Swap books?
Getting ready for a trip always throws me into a busy frenzy.
Have a great time!
Always seems like we're busy at my house (Jeff is the bishop, I'm in the YW presidency, and we have four kids--ages 6 and under). But, like Michelle said, I feel successful when I have accomplished a lot. Right now I am starting Christmas cards and planning the YW activity for next week (teaching the girls how to make a simple album to record some of their Personal Progress highlights).
I also have to say that Thursday is my new favorite day of the week because there are no meetings, no piano lessons, no ballet lessons, etc. So much free time...cozy time. :)
P.S. I just have to say again how much I appreciate your blog and love reading it. Wish you could move to Phoenix! :)
I always feel like it is SO MUCH work getting ready for vacation. The wash, the packing...makes everything twice as busy as normal! Hope you have a great time!
Road trip to California?! I want to hear about that!
You have a way to get so much done during your days!
I worked from home today and had a very LOOOOONG conference call (like 3 hours) but I was able to get things done around the house while I "listened" on speakerphone. (Hope nobody heard me unloading my dishwasher, etc.)
I picked up some B&W enlargements I had made from our weekend in the country and went to Michael's to buy black distressed frames.
We have already drawn names at work for Christmas gifts and the person I drew wants Bath and Body Works goods so I bought that and have one more gift scratched off my list. BTW, I hate the whole impersonal let's draw names thing. The girls whose name I drew is very nice but she works in a satellite office and I have only met her a handful of times. Then our HR director gave ne a list of 3 things this girl is hopiong to get. It's just like a gift exchange and I don't like that. Anyway. . .
Now Griffin and I are waiting for Luci to get off the bus so we can all go to the park. Oh, and I blogged today!
Wow that is a lot of busy. Have fun in California. Things seem to have settled down lately. Mostly I am bummed I didn't go with my husband on his business trip to Philadelphia. Oh well.
I see your busy and raise you. Life is crazy and I am so behind on reading blogs and getting mine off the ground, hopefully this weekend I can get caught up. I love your thank you gifts, I need to learn how to do them!
YOU were very busy!
I went to old navy :)!
A capitol B for sure. I hate getting ready for a trip and dread the work of coming home. Hopefully your time in CA is good, then it's worth it (in most cases).
Today we took treats to school for Nate's bday, I cleaned some and now I am fighting the urge for a late afternoon nap since it's almost dark.
Have fun away!
You cleaned the interior of your car windows???? I can only DREEEEAM of doing that. You lucky, lucky, lucky lady!
California? California? How do I not know about California? Southern? Have a great trip!
I love how, no matter how busy you are, you seem to always find time to do things with friends. I always have the best of intentions to schedule this or that with a friend but then I look ahead and get overwhelmed by the to do list. A friend and I have been talking about a creative Friday for weeks. We both work and Friday is our day off. There always seems to be something. But I am inspired by you and I AM going to figure it out!
Today, I went to the library, taught my classes, and now I am babysitting for my sister-in-law so they could go to the football game.
I have a long to do list. I am not really getting anything done. Why be productive when you can waste time away on the computer?
Have a great trip!
WOW! Busy! You got so much done!
Have fun on your road trip to Cali!! :)
I hate spiders too, especially when they sneak up on you. Good to be busy! Sounds like fun with good full days!
My sis-in-law made me one of those glass cubes with ribbon around it. It had the initial B and our last name across it. I soo love it. It is an early Christmas present. Love the one you got too!
I am geniunely jealous of your book club...you seem like kindred spirits...I itch to get away from mine after an hour! I'd love to get with people who have tastes & passions more akin to my own...or at least like discussing the actual books. But I'm going off.
Yes, you have been busy. It's always shocking when you sit & list all the comings & goings. Love the etched jar from Amy.
I'm worn out after reading your hectic schedule! How do you do it all? PLEASE tell me!
I signed Preston up for B-ball too...we'll see how it goes. He's never played.
Have fun in Cali!!!
I just checked back in and saw the jar from Amy! Looooooove it...
Getting ready for a trip always adds to the business - so many things to get done before you go! I need a donut now!
Sounds Busy and productive! Have a great trip. We will all be anxiously awaiting the details.
It's funny to hear you say your behind because it looks like you are right on task. I'm always so impressed with how much you get done.
That spider is freaking me out, it looks way to big to be crawling across your table.
What is this about going to CA? I had no idea. What are you doing?, disneyland HA! Have fun.
I'm glad you liked the jar. Thank you again for watching the girls.
