Boy this house is quiet!

Well, my two girls are off to 4-H camp and the baby is staying with a dear friend since I have school this week. With S at work, the house is so quiet. I almost don't know what to do with myself. S says not to worry, we'll take full advantage of the kids being gone and my six weeks being up from my surgery. Not to mention our anniversary is Friday. Six years, seems like a life time. Six more and our two girls will be driving- SCARY!

I have three priorities this week:
(1) to get at least 4 out of 6 research papers due for my directed study class,
(2) to finish painting and decorating SR's room, and
(3) organizing my office

If I can get those things done, I will feel like I have accomplished something!

Well, my mid year resolution is underway. It has been a rough day of no cookies, no Cheetohs, etc. I did good, for breakfast, I had a protein shake and a small cup of coffee. For lunch I had a Wendy's side salad with reduced fat Honey Mustard, and for a mid afternoon snack, I had 3 small plums, a few pretzels and a handful of nuts. Afternoons are my toughest times. I guess cause I am here by myself and I get bored.

I did have a smiley last night as I was doing my bills. I found two significant deposits that I failed to put in the register and Quicken, so I had enough to pay the two vehicle notes. It was kind of like finding a twenty dollar bill in your coat pocket from last winter. I was sweating that! I couldn't figure out where all our money went, not to mention S was spazzing out. Now if I could find a few more dollars to fund our vacation......
