Last Day of Freedom

Registered for bar/bri today and picked up my 40 lbs of books.

Went to the stationery store and bought lovely pink and brown Crane thank you notes.

Had lunch w/ DH.

Returned my diploma so that it can be inscribed with the correct honors (I did not want to let it go and they said it would be 8-10 weeks.)

Went to the used book store and brought home a huge sack full of books. I went in for a particular book that I have already started. I had borrowed it from the library, but it stinks so badly of cigarette smoke that I can't stand to read it without my head stopping up. So I bought it used (and sniffed it before my purchase.) All the others were on clearance--I spent a whopping $11. Apparently I have deluded myself into thinking that I will actually have time to read and study for the bar. Not really, I just needed something lite for the 15 minutes a night before I pass out in bed.

Spent an hour piddling around SuperTarget before finally picking up a few groceries and the cotton balls the twins were supposed to have in by today for some sort of mystery project. I heart Target.

Picked the girlies up from school.

Unloaded the groceries, cotton balls and now 60 lbs. of books from the car. Fixed the girls' snacks. Retired to the recliner with my laptop and a Diet D.P.

Still need to:

Make sure I know how to get from the train station to the bar/bri place tomorrow.

Make dinner.

Attend tonight's school board meeting where PS will be recognized b/c her PTA art submission made it to the state level.

Review for tomorrow's bar/bri lecture.

Start to put the house back together because it hasn't been touched since company left yesterday.

Do a couple of loads of laundry before we all run out of underwear. (Laundry is the bane of my existence and I will never be caught up.)

Start writing thank you notes.

[Edited because while the store is stationary, I went there to buy stationery.]
