Thursday Accomplishments

It's almost the weekend, and I've had a really rough time staying on task this week. Today, I decided to make an effort to get to the office instead of working from home, even though I had plenty of excuses not to (anyone else dealing with this crazy wind storm?). Of course, the State of the Company presentation + free dinner at the end of the day probably helped inspire me to get real clothes on and get out of the house. 

What have you lovely ladies accomplished today in spite of everything?

    I got my kids to school early this morning! It doesn't sound like much, but waking up at a decent hour has been so challenging lately, that it feels like a big win for me.

    I'm also feeling motivated to clean since Remembrance Day is over and I can officially decorate for Christmas any time I'm ready...hopefully that means I'll have more to add later! ;)

    Lately I've been wiped out but Tuesday I cleaned out my fridge and kitchen cabinets to make space for baby. Then yesterday cleaned my washer dryer area and disinfected floors there. Today it's living room turn. I'm doing the apartment little by little but getting into kick butt mode cause I've always had a feeling lil thing is coming earlier than later. So I just want to be ready!

    Showered, got my toddler to his Terrific Twos class without any arguments, and put away some clothes we got earlier this week. I'm now watching the Today Show and putting my feet up =).

    I have woken up, eaten breakfast, and PICKED MY PEDIATRICIAN! Oh yeah! That's right! I'm way behind on everything I'm supposed to be doing :) Now I only have an hour to get ready to head to work. Anybody else notice it takes a lot longer to get ready in the mornings?

    I was going to be early to work today despite feeling extremely nauseous. I was nearly out the door at 6:00. The nausea turned into way more than I thought it would, so now I have accomplished catching up on my tv shows!

    I drove to campus to attend a 1 hour seminar on a topic I'm thinking of working on for my PhD dissertation instead of staying home.  I got pretty pumped up about researching background info to start planning for a grant, but after driving home to "work from home" I ended up on the bump, cuddling cats, and watching TV.

    I got out of bed, ate breakfast and fell back to sleep on the couch.. Now watching law and order svu. Yesterday was pretty productive for me though. I put up and decorated our Christmas tree, grocery shopped (including snacks for the hospital when it's time) and got sugared.

    @redfallon I got reimbursed for a couple of them, I had to contact the usps supervisors, supervisor and am waiting for a resolution. Hopefully a fully paid p.o box since I don't have a competent delivery man. I also relieved the diaper bag after I chased it down right before they were going to,send it back to zulily!!!
    Yay!

    On the home front - Got my crap and my kid's crap together because my husband and I are going away for the weekend! My almost 2 year old is so excited to go to my aunt and uncle's for the weekend. They are more like her grandparents, they sort of adopted her as their granddaughter when my mother died on the day my LO was born.

    On the work front - I finished one grant application, half way through another, I finished all my 2015 final reports today AND I managed to assembly enough volunteers to get together our big fundraising mail-out done, so that will go out today! I'm almost done my "Before I go on Maternity Leave" list...I get a huge amount of satifaction crossing things off my list.

    I finished dishes, went to the grocery store, did a load of laundry and made 3 contacts in hope of finding temp work. Now to shower, pick up kiddos and head to the Dr for my final US. I feel soooo lazy and unaccomplished lately.

    I showered, worked a half day, did two loads of laundry, started thank you's from my 2nd shower, and put away a bunch of gifts. That's enough for me for today!

    Gawd I wish I could start thinking about working half days, but my SO and I commute together. Really working a half day would just amount to more driving. :-P Maybe 4 day weeks....

    My accomplishment is that I have made a full list of all the gifts I need to buy people for Christmas. I want to get my shopping done by the end of the month.

    Wow, I feel extra accomplished since I worked all day which included a field trip and a pep rally with my super hyper 4th graders. Jealous of you already staying at home mommas!

    I actually accomplished things today. I worked almost half a day before I felt crappy and left. But instead of heading home I deposited a few checks at the bank, picked up an online order from BRU, ordered the rest of what I need from my BRU registry, finished all but the last 5 thank you cards from my shower, and started organizing the gifts. I also did some dishes and made dinner. Sadly, I am now laying on the couch with BH because apparently I overdid it today :-/ At least I feel better!

    I went to target and had my first red cup of the season and bought some holiday candles and assorted fun stuff from the dollar spot. Tidied up and cut some hair and now I'm rocking my toddler to sleep :blush:

    @Daphneh28 I think starbucks is missing an opportunity...they should start selling "decorate your own holiday cup sets" with a marker and stickers :D
