Sleep well, Dogged! You got lots done!

I've just taken Fred for his walk, and it's a beautiful morning. So, I'm having a quick breakfast and then going out in the garden before it gets too hot .

Now, farfalle I use pretty regularly.

Wow, Kitty - going into the garden before it gets too hot! :D Enjoy the warm weather!
Gma, you have so much going on! I love your attitude about the little dog. No one could have done better. I'm trying to figure out how to get my mom to and from an appointment in 2 weeks, realizing that is a tricky thing for someone who is wheelchair bound.
I tend to kill plants too, Doggedly. Dd29 gave me some daisies for Mother's Day, and I'm giving them lots of water.
Yes - take advantage of that overtime, trissie.
Ooh - that pasta dish sounds yummy, Bama. You were up late last night!

I made good progress on payroll exam prep last night. I might be able to finish it today if I stay focused late afternoon/ early evening. I'm having coffee with MM, a friend I see occasionally. I need to prep for class today and then I'll teach 1:30 - 3:30. Whether or not I'm proctoring the exit exam is still up in the air; no students have responded positively so far. If it doesn't happen, I can maybe get in a short jog? -- Or more likely a walk since it will be 82*F at that point. Also, if I do the weekly 5K tomorrow, I don't usually jog the day before.

Dh has safely arrived in the Netherlands. We've messaged a little this morning. He used his Dutch passport to enter, and that made customs really fast. He said he slept 8 hours on the plane. That is his super power. I can never sleep on planes. He's shopping today before having dinner with his sister, mainly buying real Dutch cheese from the cheese shop to bring home! And hagelslag (like chocolate sprinkles or flakes - except made with very high quality chocolate). And Dd29 has requested some GF Dutch cookies.

Main Goals for Today
1. 9 - 10:30-ish Coffee with MM
2. Prep and teach AAS D11
3. Grade HWs
4. Exam Prep: IR AK made and the exam sent off for review; make LBBR Exam and send it out for review
5. Exercise - a short jog? A decent walk?

Next:
- back exercises
- s2s and self care
- some qt

Later:
- coffee with MM (out 8:45 - 11-ish)
- payroll: prep AAS D11
- payroll: grade HWs turned in
- payroll: update gradelink
- lunch
- finish reclaiming the kitchen
- make the bed
- gather things and otd by 1:10
- find parking in campus garage
- 1:30 - 3:30 payroll: teach AAS D11
MAYBE - 4-5 payroll: proctor exit exam online
- go for a walk? (Just realized it will be too warm to jog - over 80*F)
- payroll: Make IR Exam AK + send the folder off for review
- payroll: Make LBBR Exam and send off for review
- dinner - not sure what - leftovers of some sort?
- after dinner clean up
- duo
- update health apps

TaDas!

Morning all. I think I'm probably about 3 hours different from doggedly. Not sure where Bama is located. Bu it feels like they went to bed when I got up. Woke up too early again and the last month or 2 I have been waking up a couple times a night. Wow good morning Bama.

Trissie I hope it's sorted out quickly.

Farfalle. That's it. Bowtie. Pretty easy one to form. No we don't make pasta very often. Of course this time it worked really well and ds just might do it again. Dried pasta is often the go to. One of our favorites is penne.

Gma you are doing so much for little dog. That's frustrating about the disruption of your mom's yard. I hope they do a good job.

I've been mixed up with days. For some reason I thought yesterday was Friday. I was busy at work because the truck was so late I spent most of yesterday finalizing it and learning to send claims. I totally forgot till 915 to take ds to school. Then he's thrown off routines and refuses to go late. I can't convince him that in high school he just misses one class and go to the next one. Today is Friday not Saturday. I still work. He has school. Get it straight....

I need to do some moving stuff a bit this morning so I can give my plants some extra light. And finish a few other things. Routines mostly.

Today's tada list

Soak in tub instead of shower
S&s both baths and reboot laundry
Tidy laundry room and master bedroom some

Sweep everywhere
Spot mop tile and move my chair
Move greenhouse shelves to the window in the dining room
Finish getting ready for work
