It is another rainy day here again today. So I hope to do some baking along with catching up on laundry, getting stuff ready for a yard sale, and cleaning out my cupboards.

You rock.

Well, I never got to any cupboards yesterday, but I did bake 2 dozen buns, made cinnamon buns for today, and made a puffed wheat cake.

Well ladies, it looks like I'm out. C and I are going to be headed down to Texas to be with my grandmother on Monday since it doesn't look like she has much time left. I was really looking forward to this challenge... I'll probably do more when we get back.

I'm leaving town on Monday so here's hoping I get a few more things done between now and then... my DH is staying home and I want 1) him to be comfortable and 2) to not come home from a stressful family trip to a disaster area. Traveling with my mom to go see her mom... me, her, my toddler, and my teenage brother. It'll be an adventure to say the least.

Saturday: 665
10 Minutes of Mama Time (Pamper yourself!) 100pts 100
Bonding time with the littles (at least 15 mins; play, read to, etc) 100 pts 100
Any dishes done 20pts 20
Each load done by hand 20pts 40
Each Step (Wash, Dry, Fold, Away) 5pts 10
Each bed made (or helped to make) 20pts 20
Calendar Review: Coordinate your Commitments 25pts 25
Plan Your Menus for the Week (each meal & snack) 5pts 50


Sprint challenges
Help out someone: My friend called me in panic bc her childcare fell through for a wedding today. Sure! I’ll take your sweet baby! 200

Pamper yourself: I finally got a chance to slip out for a pedi and getting my brows waxed! Much needed… it’s been about a year 100
