My Weekend is Full

So, Saturday we're taking clothes to Mom's friend in the hospital in Sioux City, Sunday we're going to the Sorcerer's Apprentice and Monday (Mom's birthday!) we are back in Sioux City for Mom's appointment with the neurologist.

Can we say busy?

Today I am going to, or rather attempt, vacuuming the whole apartment, mopping the kitchen and bath, taking out the garbage, cleaning out the fridge (protective gear needed) and washing the dishes from the fridge.

Hopefully I can talk my mom out of staying over on Saturday so I can get the rest of the cleaning done that I may or may not have slacked off on this week. 

These include but are not limited to: sheets to be washed, towels to be washed, comforters to take to laundromat, bathroom cleaned, kitchen curtains need to be hemmed, washed, ironed and re-hung 4 inches higher (umm, learn how to iron), change the kitty litter(!) and rearranging some cabinets in the kitchen.

Lofty goals I'm afraid.

Snow Day!

When I got to work today, I had a surprise. I was walking up to the library and I saw this mass exodus of students coming from the library. One of the ILL girls waved at me and I went over to talk to her. This is our conversation.

Me: Hey. Are we closing?
Her: (looks at me funny) Yeah. We got an email saying you weren't coming in and that we were closing.
Me: (moment of silence) Well, I wish I would have gotten that email.

So we got a (paid, I think) snow day and we'll know by 7am if we get tomorrow off as well.

I decided to use the time wisely...ish.
  • I put away the baskets of clothes that had been languishing in my bedroom for the past few weeks
  • Matched up all my socks
  • Washed my comforter (yes, the washing machine is big enough for my queen comforter!)
  • Washed my new flannel sheets
  • Washed my king comforter (also big enough!!)
  • Washed my king blanket/throw
  • Picked up a whole lot of stuff
  • Got rid of a small garbage bag worth of clothes
  • Drank a half gallon of chocolate milk
  • Vegged on the couch and bed with the kitties
Still planning on doing before bed/tomorrow if another snow day
  • Wash dishes
  • Make bed
  • Vacuum
  • Wash two sets of sheets
  • Wash dirty clothes (1-2 loads)
  • Wash towels (1 smallish load)
  • Clean bathroom
  • Clean kitty boxes
