Happy Homemaker 2022-10-17

Morning friends!

DDIL had covid but was better by Sunday.  No one else seems to have it so that was good news.  

I went in to work on Thursday instead of Tuesday just in case and took a test before going - negative which I thought it would be since we had no symptoms.

Booked a Christmas supper with girls but now the date seems to be a problem.  will call for a change this week.  Calendar is starting to fill up.  Lunch with coworkers Nov17 as one coworker will show us her new baby. Babysitting nov. 4 as ds & ddil have a supper with ddil's mom.  October 29 - family supper for dniece's birthday (dh's side of the family).

DH got his earring aids this week, we'll see how he likes it.

This weekend we did not see grandkids as ddil didn't want to chance with Covid. We did chores around here and went to funeral parlor on Saturday for the mom of dh's cousin's wife.

This morning not feeling well, have never had high pressure but thinking I might have some now.

Let's join Sandra at Diary of a Stay at Home Mom .  -

On my mind 
Upcoming holidays - all that needs to be done.
Tooth still hurting - guess they'll have to redo root canal and then if that doesn't work I need to see a specialist.  I just want it over and done with.

Upcoming this week
Monday - dentist - just got a call.. daycare is closed as she has a doctor's appointment.. ddil she will ask for a prolonged sick leave... sigh...
Wednesday - haircut (had to cancel last week just in case covid)

  2. Wow, you have been a busy bee . I must let you know that your decluttering on your post inspired me this last week to do a bit as well, I listed my list today, too. I should have credited you! All .I can say is teaching these days must be very difficult. So many classrooms have non speaking English students. It must be a nightmare! Anyway, have a great week!
