American Red Cross. For anyone who doesn' t know this it is possible to make donations specific to an area (China for example) at your local Red Cross; the lady told me any and all donations are welcome even for smaller amounts. I tried to quit thinking about those suffering in China, but couldn't do it I had to do something; even if it was something small. End of public service announcement for today.
My new walking buddy had to cancel; I was completely bummed b/c Kellie and I only get to walk once a week. Michelle and I are suppose to walk this Saturday if her work schedule allows. I'm trying to loose abt 5 lbs or turn 5 lbs of flab into muscle; its not going so well. During the time I would have been walking I fixed a few errors on my family tree database (there are many more to go-individuals got duplicated so I need to delete dups reconnect others, etc), cleaned a little, and kept an eye on the kiddos.
Then we went to watch Frank at fighter practice; we stayed to talk ot his cronies and then went out for dessert (dinner for Frankie). Stayed out way to late; got further behind on household tasks and homework. I miss Frank. I'm so ready for school to be out.
Frankie works Memorial Day-my friend whose hubby typically also works Memorial Day took the day off so they could take a day trip. I want to pretend the kids and I will do something fun, but reality says we'll stay home and try to get caught up on housework-good and bad.
I feel defeated today. Maybe this weekend will be really productive and then I'll feel better.
