MONDAY IS OVER ALMOST!!  YEAH!!  My morning didn’t go the best today.  I got Tommy all ready for daycare and folded my usual load of laundry while he ate breakfast.   We get in the car and drive off, I get a block away and look in the rear view mirror and realize I forgot to put on any makeup!  LOL!!  So back home we dash for a quick application of foundation! 

We make it to daycare fine.  I head to my office as I have a training all day there.  I get off the elevator on our floor and it is very steamy, weird!  It smelled like maybe they had cleaned the carpet.  Odd, since it is a pretty new building.  I go to my desk and realize the training I was suppose to be at was in the Western Service Center, not our building.  ARGH!!  I guess I will use thetime to catch up on paperwork instead.

I am working away and the fire alarm goes off!  ARGH!!  What fool would make us do a fire drill on this *darn cold day!!  I decide on second thought to grab my jacket even a few minutes outside otoday would be unbearable.  The entire building emptys and we stand in the parking lot complaining about the fool who did the drill as the fire trucks come screeching down the street!  OOOPS….this is real!!  Ok, real or not, it is really cold out and I can’t sit in my car and stay warm as I left my car keys at my desk.  A co-worker invited me to sit in her car with her.  WHEW!!  I love her!   A few minutes later we were all heading back into the building after the all clear was sounded. 

It seems the smell I was wondering about on our floor was a humidifier in the mechanical room had malfunctioned and set off the fire alarms.  It was steaming and really hot in that room.  There was condensation running down all the interior windows, etc.  Well at least we know that the fire department will get there when our alarms go off pretty quickly.

The rest of my day was pretty uneventful.  I just worked on gettting caught up on paperwork, if that is even possible.

I got home only a little late tonight.  We had supper and then it was our weekly cleaning time, well at least mine.   Joshua does do the trash collection throughout the house.  He even did the dishes tonight!   I think it was ilovebakedgoods that asked if my list for today was my weekly home blessing.  Yes, it is!  

I set my timer for one hour and go to town!  My hubby watches the baby and I clean.  I like that I can do all my cleaning in one hour and only do it once a week!  Any I only will do one hour, if I am not done, I will do it next week.  Usually I can complete everything in an hour fine.  I chose Mondays partly due to Flylady, but it is the best day for me as well.  I rarely work late on Monday’s and it is nice to get the house all cleaned up after the weekend.  That way I have a nice clean house all week.

I loosely folllow the Flylady routines.  I think I have finally found the balance and routine that works for me.  I wash laundry every day, at least one load.  I switch a load around ever night.  When I wake up I fold and put away one load before going to work.  Today I also folded two this evening.  I am catching up from the weekend, as I didn’t do laundry at all over the weekend. 

Tomorrow is my Free Day, I don’t do much, just finish up my list from Monday and maybe do one or two things in my zone.  Otherwise I play with the kids and enjoy watching Judging Amy at 9:00pm.   Tuesday is a night I will schedule night meetings for work, if need be.
