- unload dishwasher, breakfast, vitamins. Check calendar;
- eat the breakfast; quiet time; then rouse, feed, and do Bible time with my boy;
- a load of laundry started;
- Look at or create "To Do" list;

- hit the hot spots (load the breakfast dishes; clear "hot spot" surfaces;
- lunch and recess break/ email, phone calls;
- homeschool in afternoon/ any appointments for the day
- Clean up school area;

- brush teeth, get dressed for bed;
- snuggle in and read, or do computer or watch movie while knitting or crocheting.
Majorly, I have boxes to unpack and declutter. We had hardwood put in last week, and everthing was boxed and removed from the rooms. Now the boxes need to be unpacked. Realistically, a lot of the stuff that got packed needs to be thrown away, given away, or put away. In other words, when we packed up there were piles that should have been dealt with that were just packed. Now they need to be dealt with.
Anyway, time to get on with my day. I got the breakfast/coffee part done, but not the bed made part, nor the shower, nor the quiet time, nor the dishwasher, etc. Gotta get moving.
