Today will be occupied by preparing for tomorrow. Buck and will serve as election officials for tomorrow's primary election. The precinct we'll work is essentially in the middle of a cornfield, so we'll have to pack breakfast, lunch and snack stuff. We have to be at the site at 5:30 a.m., which means we'll have to be up at 4. Ugh!

I've already made some cookies to take along, cut the bagels for our breakfast and will have to make our sandwiches a little later this afternoon.

Washed and set my hair so Mother Nature can dry it for me. Already know what dinner will be, so that's already ticked off the list.

I'll have to review the rules and regs we were given at election school on Friday. Gotta make sure we are doing things by the "book" according to Kentucky law.

The rest of the day will be spent writing, writing, writing. Lot of that to get done this week.

Kudos to you and Buck for serving in the election process. People don't realize how much volunteers make the process happen and it's a lot of work!

Wow, wow, wow! You have been a very busy girl! I hope you took lots of pictures so you can enjoy them when you finally get back home. (And maybe you can share some of the pics with us - hint, hint.)

I've been up since 7 a.m. Made breakfast for Amanda, took her to school. Woke up Justin to send him to school (a bit late today since he stayed up till 2 a.m. working on a project). Washed dishes, mopped the floors, and finished all the laundry (still need to fold about 4 huge piles...argh!!!), and watered my plants outside. Now I'm off to get ready to take Justin to the endocrinologist, then pick up Amanda from school, fix dinner or....hopefully hubby will take us out to dinner. On top of it, I'm having to deal with a migraine headache that I've had since Saturday. Ugh! It's a head cold with a combination of allergies.

Hubby got home after picking up our son, and now the kids are playing outside before going to bed.

Oooooh, I love slipcovers for chairs. I made a couple of sets for my daughter. Since her cats like to lounge in the dining chairs and shed a lot, she keeps the spare set clean and ready to slip on if company comes. I'm sure yours will be gorgeous - white muslin looks so fresh and airy. Maybe you could put a band of blue bias tape or grosgrain ribbon around the skirt to pick up the blue in the room and your new tile.

Are you using a pattern? I could use a set of those my DW's cats are actively trying to destroy my dining room. I have been married less then a year, I am still allowed to call them "her cats". I can usually follow a pattern, perhaps I will break out the sewing machine.

yes i have a pattern McCall's 3217. it has pieces and instructions for six different chair styles. what little i have done is fairly simple. i just have to be in the mood to sew, so it has been slow going. sounds like a plan ie the cats, muslin is very inexpensive and even less if u can get it on sale.

that sounds cool. it is important to not over do the blue. curtains are a waverley fabric with blue flowers, the dining room is a blue tole that was here when i moved in.

yes the airy aspect of muslin, as well as cost was a big factor in fabric choice.

wish i know how to do the picture thing , so u could see how it looks. it is always a work in progress. lol

[LEFSElover]

wait for dd to come back so she can get me to airport so I can get home.
miss hubby.
rest of the day? wait for dh to pick me up at bus station and go from there.
dinner? maybe maybe not, we'll see, not hungry and just made dinner for ds and his fiance and dd and her kids.
hopefully, sleep well tonight.

 

[babetoo]

city was working on water lines this am. so now i have to get caught up from that. dishwasher is going and i need to let a load of towels finish rinseing.

maybe work on chair covers. my heart is not in it. might just take a nap.

still hot and really just want to sit and talk to u guys.

babe

 

[LPBeier]

Lefse, I know what not getting sleep is like so I pray for lots of zzzzzz's for you tonight.

I can't do laundry because the border is sick and the machines are near his bedroom and make too much noise to sleep.

I can't bake because my knee has swollen double again and so I can't stand too long.

There is no point planning a big supper because everyone is sick.

So, my schedule is waiting on my patients and playing on the computer all day so I can keep my leg up!

Life is tough

 

[LadyCook61]

Food shopping, we usually go on Wed. so hubby can use his 5% off senior card. Also go to the vet to pick up Gracie (cat) who had to stay overnight for an enema, have to wait for the phone call so she can be picked up. I hate leaving my furbabies at the vet for any reason, I miss them even for one night.
