Where is the time going?

I thought things would calm down some now that the two big fund raisers are done. Well they have.

It's me, I think. I am finding things to do with my "free" time and then am losing track of time. Pretty much what the date is. I missed a planning meeting for my playgroup. It was the last full formal planning meeting of our group as we are going alumni at the end of the year. It is going to be weird not getting all the emails about the larger groups plans, the schedule of speakers, etc. But I digress. I forgot to go to the meeting because I forgot which day of the week I was on. I thought it was Saturday and it was Sunday (the day of the meeting). I forgot to go over to a friend's house because I thought I was doing that two days down the road rather than the actual date I'd actually told her. She just laughed at me. The sad thing is that these things were on my computer's calendar, I just didn't get any reminders. I need to check and see if I've accidently disabled the reminder emails.

This weekend we are doing things around the house. Saturday was the big neighborhood clean up day. So we got rid of the broken office chair, the broken patio umbrella, our old metal blinds, a broken cd player, a broken stroller and our broken shredder. We piled everything up and rolled it down the street to the big bins. It is nice when they have these because you get rid of some big trash items without having to pay extra.

Philip spent a few hours hanging out with a friend. Lindsay and I went to Michaels and got her some small notebooks for her stickers. She likes making stories using the stickers and then adding a few words and pictures.

Today I'm making spaghetti and meatballs for a friend (and for us too as the kids really like it). We are also going to be doing a bit more around the house. I'm trying to get things organized and ready for when my inlaws come.
