Monday Game Plan: Doctors and Organization

Well, last week didn't go exactly as planned. We went to my mother's, but Calan got sick, so we basically just hung out at home the 4 days we were there. We were suppose to come home Thursday evening, but decided to stay until Friday morning.

Calan went from having a stomach bug to a bad cold, which took up a lot of our time and attention. We still have to regroup from the holidays and take down our Christmas decorations. I felt sick yesterday, so didn't do much yesterday and Bob goes back to work tomorrow, so there is a lot to do today before he goes. And not to mention, our alma matter Michigan State University is playing in the Outback Bowl today, which means I lose Bob for most of the afternoon.

So here is the plan:
Menu

• Monday: Chicken pot pie 
• Tuesday: Pork chops with stuffed dumpling squash
• Wednesday: Chicken primivera
• Thursday: Taco salad
• Friday: Leftovers
• Saturday: Chilli with Beer bread (Tip: Add 3 tsp. of baking powder to 3 cups flour to make self-rising flour)
• Sunday: Family dinner (not sure if it is my turn to host or not, so I will figure that out at some point this week)

Events

• Monday: Organize and take down indoor Christmas decorations (too cold for outdoor)
• Tuesday: Library storytime and errands in the afternoon
• Wednesday: Calan's 18-month well visit. He is just getting over his cold, so I might reschedule
• Thursday: Maisie eye-doctor appointment. Bob is working from home and maybe taking Calan to Playaway class.
• Friday: Clean house
• Saturday: Tackle basement dumping ground 
• Sunday: My cousin's daughter's first-birthday party and Wilson family dinner

Every week I have high expectations, and every week, something doesn't get done. I guess it is just one day at a time and there is always tomorrow.
