Snow Day...and Other Matters

Today, since it snowed, I took Charlie out to play.  He did NOT like it:

Please note that he refused to wear gloves.  I did everything I could think of to try to make him.

Oh well.  I get points for trying, right?

As I'm adjusting to life with two, I'm beginning to find my feet.  It helps that break is upon us (thank you Lord for the snow day!), but I'm going to make a supreme effort to continue my normal life routines:

• Cleaning.  I am having a TERRIBLE time keeping my house clean.  I have seriously cleaned it from top to bottom for the past few days and it is still a perpetual mess.  What gives???
• Menu planning.  I'm getting sick of running to the store or grabbing take out.  Gotta get this back under control
• Blogging.  I haven't been very good about this.  It's hard to get alone time with the good computer!
• Balancing my checkbook. My husband tells me I'm the only one on Earth who does this.  Maybe so, but I like knowing exactly how much $$ I have at any given time.  I used to do this once a week, but lately it's been more like once a month...

Hoping to get better about doing these things in 2013!
