Finally Friday Conga
Let's Conga today! Whether at home or out and about, stay on task with that great big Carmen Miranda headpiece held steady!

Good Morning!
I love the visual of gracefully dancing while balancing the headpiece.
I enjoy listening to this daily mp3 file at the start of my day. This morning, I tried to set up app on kindle fire to automatically load it for me. I must have done something wrong so I will just continue to listen to it on PC each day (using rss software).

Re: Finally Friday Conga
Ooooh, Finally Friday! I also want what Lucylee is having!
I have a hair appointment at 10 this morning, and need to pick up dh at the airport near 10 p.m. tonight (I really should send a noctural dkid, huh?) I've been thinking about taking dh's car to have it hand washed and detailed...I'm thinking I could take my iPad and read while I wait - although could also ask dd to pick me up if needed and take me back later.
Sooooo, first round:
-breakfast
-meds, me + ddogs
-clear kitchen counters
-start a lol
-get rid of 10 pieces of paper!

Re: Finally Friday Conga
Good morning!!! I bet y'all can just SEE me -- ready to Conga... got my hat on and everything!
It is sooo amazing and sooo wonderful to be able to breathe and sleep well through the night.
I did not realize I was not sleeping well... but oh my goodness. The difference it makes when one awakes.
For instance, here I am at 6:40:
I have
-- weighed & recorded
-- done my little 5 min exercise routine
-- swished the toilet
-- s2underwear
-- eaten breakfast
-- checked the internet
Usually, at 6:40, I've gotten past the first two items, and I'm eating breakfast, but I am still sitting here staring at the computer, trying to summon the energy to face the shower.
I won't be able to do a lot of household congo-ing, though, b/c of course it is still a payroll day. However, I have high hopes for the congo line there. We are expecting a lot of absences today -- girls softball team is playing in regional tournament & students will be allowed to go w/out counting absence -- if they return w/ticket stub Monday. Sooo... maybe I can get some end-of-the-year decluttering out of the way.
Waving to Lilac, OKay, and Twins, and all to come!!! Hope y'all have a great Friday!!!

Re: Finally Friday Conga
I conga every day now. At some point I downloaded some conga music and use it as part of my workout music!
I'm up. Dh finally let me sleep in, getting up at 6 but leaving the bedroom instead of turning on the radio and waking me up. This is the last 'sleep in' I get for over a week - tomorrow I have to leave the house at 7, 6:45 the next day and 5 a.m. from the hotel on Sunday. Once in Atlanta, we have morning seminars each day so I suspect we'll be up before 7 in order to time bathroom use plus breakfast before walking to the conference church.
I'm on the treadmill because this might be the last time I'm on the treadmill for over a week. It depends on what the hotel is like. If there is a shower in their exercise room, I might workout and shower there in order to open up the bathroom for the minister.
My first task of the day is to find out what the weather forecast is for next week.
Edited to add: today is the last day of 0% chance of precipitation in Atlanta and there is no threat of thunderstorm only on one day that I'm there. Pack shoes that can get wet and an umbrella. It will also only be in the 80s not 90s so that changes my clothing choices slightly.

Re: Finally Friday Conga
Kathryn, the low here at my house was probably in the upper forties this morning - the SE is having remarkably mild, clear weather, at least for today. It sounds like ATL will be very quite pleasant!
I'm also updating software on iPhone. I got rid of at least one piece of paper by taking a photograph and sending to Evernote - this was the tag that shows the ink refills needed for the current printer.
This round:
-make a hit l*st for the day
-fold two loads of laundry
-wash up and get dressed, teeth brushed, etc.
-refill meds containers
-get rid of 10 pieces of paper again

Re: Finally Friday Conga
Wow you all are off and running this morning.
The meeting yesterday was interesting. They are looking into reinstating a nurse at night for us. The dining room has a lot of changes coming. They all sound very promising.
Another gorgeous day here today.
I want to get all my need to dos finished by 11 am so I can go to lunch.
It is working out great having my main meal at noon.

Re: Finally Friday Conga
Breakfast cooked/served/cleaned up.
It is gently raining here and looks like it will continue for several hours. PERFECT time to shut down MPB and do some much needed maintenance so there will be minimum impact to customers. DH has been waiting for this kind of weather for a couple weeks and was almost ready to give up and just shut down to do it. I've got a list of items for me to do when I get a chance to work there. Hoping DH can get his tasks done before the rain stops and we can trade places.

Re: Finally Friday Conga
When i got home from DParents yesterday, LO met me at the door all excited.....he said "we got you a surprise!!!" Then he followed me into the bathroom to tell me "it is in a red box and it is chocolate!!!". Lesson to DH.....expecting a 3 year old to keep a secret isn't going to happen. I have my suspicions that tomorrow may include some chocolate calories. 
DDIL sent an email with link to an online photography class that she wants to take together. Hum....I know I shouldn't add anything else to my schedule/calendar....I know it....but but but I just don't want to turn down an opportunity to team up with DDIL to do something. thinking..... Life is so short and work will always be here. Soooooooo....decision made.... If given an opportunity to eat chocolate tomorrow, I will do it with no guilt...... AND ............I will take class with DDIL with no guilt of what cleaning cards are not being done.
