Things Accomplished

MommaY4814

If your anything like me I go all day feeling like I've accomplished nothing..then I remind myself DS is still thriving! Lol
;;)

Post something that you HAVE accomplished today, no matter how big or small. Bragging is allowed.

It's been a while I think since we've had a thread like this? Shoot me a link if I'm wrong...

I'll go.Me and Henry have both bathed today!

lokimau

I put together her high chair!

I think it's a great idea for a thread even if we had one recently!

Today I showered (I always count this as an accomplishment!), washed the bathroom floor, made four Christmas cards, walked the dog, made dinner, kept all the pets and people at my house fed and alive. Good day!

Dinner is already made, bottles washed and bottles ready to go for DC tomorrow and it's only 5 pm!

Painted my nails during kids naps/quiet time. And I worked out this morning! (For the first time in about a year)

Ashleypixie

We went shopping and got a ton of new clothes and toys! For the baby, not me.

3 loads of laundry done, folded, and put away. Plus I made dinner and kept baby and I alive. Woooooo.

I've cleaned a little bit before tomorrow when my SIL and MIL will be here (I'll do a bit more once my husband gets home). Dinner is in the oven. We've both showered, and I've managed to keep the dirty dishes to a minimum!

We went to Trader Joe's and Target without any crying (me or the baby). Trader Joe's is not that close to us so this is a major accomplishment. Sadly, there was a massive poop explosion but I had a fully stocked diaper bag so another accomplishment

I dread laundry more than anything!

Did a mommy and me workout group this morning, took LO to an appointment for his helmet in downtown phoenix and survived driving in a crazy downpoor that super freaked me out, cleaned the kitchen, stripped bedding and towels from upstairs to get ready for a houseguest, tidied up the family room, and started a load of laundry. 

And now I'm bumping while our fantastic Roomba is vacuuming. Would never have bought one for ourselves, but it was a gift from my parents and it is fantastic. I feel like I'm being productive when I run it, even though I can be sitting and relaxing.

I went to the DMV to fill out a change of address form. I only moved 5 months ago...

Edit: make that almost 6 months....oops.

Woohoo to getting it done though

Dinner made, library trip, homeschool preschool done while DS was still awake, craft with both big kids, 2 hr nap for DD2 (miraculous!), grocery store run, drop by at DH's new office for the kids to see it. I'd say it's been a pretty good day.

Went grocery shopping and got a membership to the Y. Yay! Mom and me swimming here I come!

Took LO to her first baby playgroup and I even had a shower before we went!

I'm hoping to get my kids in the pool this fall too. I can't wait!

We built a fairy house today!! It was fun rummaging around in the woods for materials, and we had a blast assembling everything together. The kids made an awesome one at school so we followed suit at home.

Ta da!



I also am on day 11 of single parenting. My husband is overseas for work. 2 more days!

2 kids bathed, and I gave kiddo a haircut tonight while eating my own dinner and feeding T avocado.

2 orders made and mailed out this afternoon.

It's been a productive day!

@MamaFantastic How fun!! Can't wait 'til Edolie is older so I can do things like that with her.

@janice9821 1) What happened to your other name!? It was just now when I was trying to tag you and typed your other name that I realized it's back to your old one. lol 2) You couldn't do it online? I got a ticket like a month ago (whoops) for not having it changed, and I was able to update it online, print out a temporary license, then got my new one in the mail a couple weeks later. Not sure if that's an option in all states though.

*sparky*

It is not entirely fair of me to answer this question because I actually paid DD's sitter to come over for three hours on my day off so I could get something done.

While she was here I

Packed for our trip
Did a little work on my computer
Bought a dress for a wedding we are going to
Did two loads of laundry

Once she left I

Picked DS up from school and took him for yogurt
Finished packing
Played soccer
Made dinner (and ate)
Helped DS with homework
Cleaned the fish tank

I did not manage to get a shower today but hopefully will after everyone is in bed

ETA: and DH is still not home so this was all on my own

mooncusp22

Actually felt somewhat accomplished today! 

Gym this morning 

Walmart grocery trip with DD

Put new sheets on our bed

Did all dishes

Paid some bills

Straightened up around house

Almost all wash done (last load in dryer now)

Dropped a bunch of clothes, purses & shoes off at consignment

I am currently a SAHM so this happened over the whole day.. I try to do a little each day so I am not overwhelmed

UnofficiallyLO

Woke up early and took care of some banking while DS was asleep. Downloaded and deleted all of the pictures from my phone so that I had room to upgrade it and all of my apps. Got the dog and baby outside four times, once for a 30 min walk. And most importantly a short nap with G.

@edoliesmom‌ - I have no idea what happened to my other username. I guess the bump ate it. And I have no idea if I could have done it online. I should have checked. Doh! #-o

All of our bathrooms are cleaned and scrubbed!  It took me the entire day, I only did it while my LO was napping, but I finally just finished.  WAHOO!  If I can muster the energy to jump into the shower today will be quite an accomplishment

Took LO to the art museum for a stroller tour, went to dh's office for lunch, did a load of laundry (wash AND dry!), worked out, heated up dinner.

It's funny you should post this because I was just thinking to myself that I wish my days had more "purpose". I mean, I know I'm raising two kids but I still wish I had something else, I guess.

Anyway, today I sold some diapers, got all of the kids old clothes and sold them at OUAC, swept and mopped the living room, washed 3 loads of laundry and folded (gasp!) anddddd that's it.

That's okay! It's nice to get out of the house.
