Friday 5 Minute Challenge

RealLifeMama · 02-20-2009, 08:32 AM

I do not know how much I will be on today, but I have a few things to get done, so I wanted to start the thread anyway.

When this thread pops up in your "new replies", get up from the computer for 5 minutes and do something to bless your home. Then, come back and tell us what you did so that the rest of us will get up and do something.

I will make my list in the next reply.

Amy, you totally

Seriously.

BTW, on the day I had my baby, dh added "have baby" to my to do list.

But, it looks like you're plenty busy without that!

I made my bed.

I have sick grouchy kids, so that may be my big accomplishment for the day.

Thanks.
I tried putting that one my list yesterday. It did not happen!

I put the load of laundry I had folded last time away, then flipped the wet laundry into the dryer, and started a new load.
