Need to pay an urgent care bill. Need to decide what to make for dinner this week/grocery shop. Need to finally paint the dang wall to make a chalkboard.

I need to schedule the dog's vet appointment, almost 2 months overdue.
I need to go back to the grocery store to get all the stuff they were out of when I was there Sunday.
Tonight I need to help DH carry stuff up from the crawl space so we can finally schedule the radon remediation.

1. Call ENT to make an appointment for myself so that I can hear out of my left ear (I have wax issues and need to go in every 2-3 years).
2. Pick-up my contacts from the eye doctor.
3. Check the status of my short term disability claim paperwork.
4. Get paperwork in order for my OB. (Medical release for Short-term disability and FMLA).

I need to wipe down all the toys in the playroom and start weeding out toys that are outgrown and not played with. Between the twins birthday party this weekend, Christmas, then R's bday in January, we are sure to get a million more toys.

I need to call to pay a bill. I am so looking forward to going to work today because I am just so done with the screaming today... ugh. And how can I get my kids to sleep longer in the morning? It seems like no matter how early I get up they are up within 15 minutes. I need some alone time! They don't nap, won't play alone in their room... I'm starting to think I really suck at this whole parenting thing.

O's 1 year check up is this afternoon. I need to work on the picture organizing project I've got going (meaning I have pictures all over my bedroom and they need to be moved). I need to transfer some money around from a deposit that M did this AM. I'm sure there is more, there is always more...

I scheduled one dog's vet visit. Tomorrow's cleaning lady day, so I have a lot of picking up to do that I always put off to the last minute. I also need to clean the high chair cushions.

I vacuumed the living room and called our insurance about E's emergency room visit for the cut on her head, since they denied charges for the doctor's bill as well as the hospital's. Still can't understand how the total charges for spending one minute gluing a little cut closed could possibly be $2,200, but I'm freaking pissed off about it, especially because I knew it wasn't something that warranted an ER visit but the pedi sent us there anyway.

Got dog food, went to the cleaners, went with R1 to his vasectomy consultation, and then we stopped to do T's passport application.
I'm putting off the mail for another day....

I need to go grocery shopping later, but before I do I need to plan what I'm going to cook my parents for dinner tomorrow night for their 38th wedding anniversary. Which I just remembered today.

1. Register G for T-ball clincis 2. Nag, I mean encourage, D to get his student council application finished 3. Open a checking account for D's new baseball team 4. Actually get some work done at work 5. Fill out dates in my planner for all the school events that I have accumulated little slips of paper for. 6. Throw out said slips of paper 7. Reschedule D's pitching lesson
I accomplished all but #3, #4's successfulness is up for debate

Tonight I need to help DH carry stuff up from the crawl space so we can finally schedule the radon remediation. Grocery store, check. Cleared some things out of the basement, check. I'll call the vet tomorrow.

High chair cushions aren't happening tonight because we have at least 4 (!!!) loads of towels, sheets, and blankets that need to be washed again before we put them away.

I'm starting to think I really suck at this whole parenting thing. Can you get one of those clocks that turns colors so they know to not bother you until it turns green? I remember hearing about it on here, and my SIL says it's their lifesaver. They keep it in the kids' bathroom so they can go there in the morning but not to their room until it's green.

From day one J (3) understood that he couldn't come out of his room until the light turned green. He's very insistent about waiting. Now, he's gated in his room so it's not like he has a choice BUT he used to yell at the gate and whine and he's not done that even once in the 2+ weeks that we've had it. He doesn't mind playing in his room alone though, so if your kids hate that then the clock might not solve your problem.

This is what I did today I need to get like a low shelf or something now. Oh, and they say you have to take off an even number of panels or buy special hardware to secure it to the wall if it's an odd number, but they lie. You just have to take the ends off the panels and swap them. Done and done.

Guys! I found, sorted, photographed, and posted for sale over 50 pieces of maternity clothes that I'll never need again. Now, I'll be super happy when they are gone.

Ikea high chairs are the shiz. No cushions. Wipe or hose and down and you're golden.

Ikea high chairs are the shiz. No cushions. Wipe or hose and down and you're golden. I didn't want to drive hours just to get them, and they're ridiculously expensive online. We did at least wind up with ones that are wipeable and washable, so they're easy to clean. I just have to do it. If we end up with an Ikea with a less than 2 hours drive, I'm likely to go get them, though.

Shipping is like $10, but still worth it IMO. But maybe that's changed...

They're talking about putting one two hours north of us, though!
