I'm being far too efficient today....I'm scared.
:P

It's noon, and I have 4 loads of laundry in the dryers, already went to the Post Office, showered, and paid my parents' mortgage online. Now I'm going to clean the house. Oh, and I started a new knitting project as well.

:scared: I think the body snatchers came by last night...

:hi:

2. can you head over to my house and crack the whip on my kid?
Edited on Thu Aug-02-07 11:03 AM by MissMillie
he brought all his boxes in last night and needs to go through them. I can't even vacuum until he does (and let me tell you, the cat hair is taking over...)

11. I love those days!
Toward the end of the day I start getting slack though and can justify it with, "damn, if I do all that stuff today, what will I have left to do tomorrow?!?"

hehe

13. I'm enjoying it!
What with the wedding, honeymoon, parents' illnesses, brother's DUI, I've been way stressed and unmotivated. Today is a good day :)

16. I ate two pizza rolls, four kettle chips,
some nicotine gum (chewed, not ate, I suppose,) sucked up a bunch of fruit flies with the vacuum cleaner, and got all the kids to be quiet enough that when the annoying neighbor girl came a-knockin', we were able to convince her that no one was home.

:bounce:

18. Why do you have fruit flies?
We keep them away by keeping all food scraps in a bag in the freezer. No flies! :bounce:

You're very productive today... :rofl:

Now update that blog!

20. I don't know. It always happens, this time of year.
It's probably Jack and all his damn bananas.

Did you see his pic in the baby pic thread? You must!

23. This is how I feel after I take my Adderall dose haha
When I'm not on it, I feel so unmotivated, but an hour after taking it, all the messes are cleaned up, all the work is done, and I feel great.

26. just go to a psychiatrist and pretend that you have Adult ADD
Just say you have real problems concentrating and that you heard about this great drug called Adderall. You can probably get a script. And there's a generic too so if insurance covers it, it will be cheaper, and if they don't, it's probably still affordable.
