For those who don’t know, our clothes dryer conked out a little over a week ago, and it has been a crazy experience getting a new one! The old dryer had been purchased by the previous owners of our house in 1970, so it definitely had lived a full life. We measured it carefully before going out to buy a new one, but neglected to take into account the fact that the kitchen had been remodeled sometime in the 1980s.
It turns out the space between the edge of the wall oven and the edge of the counter on the other wall is now just over 27″, and the first dryer we purchased was 29″ wide. While it wasn’t quite that deep, it was still was over 27″ in that direction as well, and so back to the store it (and we) went. The new dryer is coming this afternoon, so as long as all goes well, the laundry marathon can commence!
Daily Priorities
- Follow morning routine each day.
- Declutter something every day.
- Stay on top of my afternoon/evening routines so dinner is done and cleaned up in time to get Michael in bed by 8:30.
- Spend some time decompressing (i.e. blogging or reading) once Michael is asleep.
- Go to bed at a decent hour myself so I am not too tired the next day.
Things to Do
- Catch up on all the laundry.
- Send in registration for TOPSoccer.
- Do homework for IEP workshop.
- Email school about Michael’s re-eval and about anxiety/headache from missing his break.
- Check ASD HOPE voice mail at least every other day.
- Figure out budget for February.
What’s on your to-do list?
To-Do Tuesday was started by Lisa @ Crazy Adventures in Parenting for the purpose of attacking our to-do lists each week, blogging about our lists and what we’ve got going on, and sharing it with each other to help keep each other accountable.

Hope it fits ok, laundry builds up so quickly it's just not funny!! Jen.
I hope all goes well with the dryer coming today. Speaking of laundry that is on my to do list. I also finally got the papers I have been waiting for so later tonight once the kids are in bed I am going to fill them out so I can send them back right away.
God, I'd be lost if I missed one day of washing!:) Hope it gets straightened out!
I dont think I can begin to thank you for the decluttering one thing a day idea. It's been going SWIMMINGLY!
I'm trying to play catch-up, here. AND I fell asleep last night early without having done my list before I snoozed. Whoops
I'm so glad to hear that about the decluttering. Hope you are all caught up now!
