Well, it is only Tuesday, and I can barely remember what we did last weekend. I am not sure if this is a function of memory deterioration, doing too much, doing not enough, or just being so darn tired all the time.
This is how I did on my to-do list.
- Go through and clean my closet - DONE
- Go through and clean C's closet (with C) - DONE
- Go through and clean E's closet (with E) - not started (but we talked about it.... about 0 enthusiasm from E)
- Cooking - YES because everyone always hungry all the time
- Shopping - YES (husband did produce-shopping on Saturday and I supplemented with a few other things on Monday)
- Laundry - IN PROGRESS (because: neverending)
Exciting things.
- C had a cello trial lesson on Friday (because her current teacher is moving away). It went well and she seemed to like the new/potential teacher!
- H had a piano rehearsal on Saturday. She did a very good job. I was a bit worried because her practicing has been less than optimal, but she pulled it off. (so... maybe 20 minutes of practicing a day is enough for her.. but I can't even imaging how amazing she would be if she practiced an hour a day... that said, she is not looking to become a professional musician, so this is not something I am going to push)
- Takeout (sushi per H's request)
- I went out with a few local women who have kids at our Hebrew School. It was really nice to get to know them. (I would like to work on forming deeper and better friendships but I am having a really hard time connecting with people. I miss having friends who are in the post-forming-friendship stage. I want to skip getting-to-know part and get to the knowing and trusting and being effortlessly friends part. It doesn't work that way, I know :))
Other things.
- Kids played video games.
- Husband and E spent hours outside on Sunday, chopping wood, cleaning things up, and then going on a bike ride.
- Board meeting - I am a co-chair on a committee. This is not something I particularly enjoy. I do it because: giving back to the community, etc, etc.
- Probably other things that I can't remember now.
Didn't happen.
- Board games
- Family movies
- Reading (well, I read a tiny bit)
- Walks
- Exercise
- Probably other things that I can't remember now.
What are your favorite weekend things to do?
