I did indeed enjoy my time off on the sofa! Although it didn't last all day. LOL I watched a movie with DD, fell asleep in the middle of it, and woke up to see the ending. She said that I didn't miss much...teeheehee

And, now, the start of another busy week. Here are just a few highlights:
- Finish work records and get in the mail (today or tomorrow)
- Prepare for DFs surprise birthday party to be this Sunday (I'll be doing decorations and activities.)
- 8th grade graduation (Thurs) - I'm on the decorating committee.
- Teach 3 classes
- Prepare 5 powerpoints for my summer dinosaur camp.

I'm sure there are a hundred other things, but I can't remember them right now.

Good to hear you relaxed enough to fall asleep Carol!
Cannot wait to hear about the decorations and activities for DF's party

Finished the last of my work records yesterday afternoon and put them in the mail today. Always a big sigh of relief when I'm done with those each quarter. Now I don't have to do them again until October. Ahhhhh!!!!!!

Today, I went to look at the room where we will have DF's birthday party on Sunday so I could figure out decorations. I just looked through the windows. That was all I really needed to do anyway. I am going to go very frugal with the decorating, but it will still be festive. I think since it's at a BBQ place I will get some of those red/white checkered plastic tables cloths. They have them at the dollar store in town right now. I would like to cut them maybe into thirds and use them as runners down the tables. I don't want to cover the whole table because they are made of beautiful varnished wood, but I do want something colorful on them. And since it's Memorial Day weekend, there are red, white and blue decorations at the dollar store too so I'll pick up something that will work as well as some balloons. Oh, and we're going to play Pin the Tail on the Donkey. My DF never had a kiddie birthday party growing up during the depression so I'm pulling out the classic party game for him.

Next up on the work front is making my 5 presentations for my dinosaur camp and then graduation on Thursday.

Busy, busy time of year for me and then, after next Wednesday (our last day of school for the kids) it will be quiet.

Carol:
Look at you! Much has happened this past year, in your life and you are an energizer bunny and just keep going and going.
Please take a bow! That is wonderful that the school year is almost done, andthen you get to do the dinosaur camp. That sounds like fun!

last night, i took a break for some bean soup at 10pm. it took until 1 am to finish my 75 for wed and then i fell asleep while listening to a show on here.

i woke to the door bell at noon. my clog cannon had come. i'll let you know how it works when i get around to taking it out of the box. then i relistened to the show that i ended up sleeping thru last night and after that i watched dool. while i watched, i stripped the bed and got it remade w my summer sheets while i washed the winter ones. as soon as the show ended, i made a salad for 630pm and then fixed a grilled cheese and ate that. i ran/emptied the dw, folded and put away the winter sheets, cleaned my earrings restocked the dt caf fr coke, did the dailies, pd a bill, looked at 2 sets of coupons and took a shower and washed my hair.

i've had this awful feeling all day that i'm forgetting something
