Whew!  Today is Monday- my "Kick Butt at Home" Day.  I try to not schedule anything else on Mondays so that I can just be home- grungy!- and get my house cleaned, my laundry caught up, etc.  I live in a big, old, 3-story house, so keeping it clean is a major job!!  I need a maid!!!  I have decided- especially since there are only 2 of us and a cat- that we really don't get THAT dirty, so I am doing a weekly rotation of floors.  I am trying this out to see how this works.  Hopefully things won't get as dusty if every 3 weeks the entire floor is getting deep-cleaned.  Today is 2nd floor which includes: full bath, 2 long hallways, master bedroom, and dressing room (which is a converted bedroom).  I still have the bathroom and one hall to do.

I got my rebounder back, and decided to bounce on it this morning- I run in place and do different things on it.  I am SO out of shape!  I was winded in 5 minutes- and I think I pulled a leg muscle!!

I found out today that I can get one of my "necessary" beauty services done at our local Aveda Institute for HALF the price of going to the salon!!  AND- you can't tip, so I am going to save a lot of money!!  woohoo!!

Last night we were spontaneously invited to the home of our good friends.  He needed "rescuing" because all the girls were getting ready to watch a Jane Austen movie, so he invited George to come hang out with him, and I got to watch the movie with the girls!  Fun!!  I love spontaneanity.

Okay... think I'm going to go attempt an at-home hot oil treatment on my hair while working on my house. (http://video.about.com/beauty/How-to-Make-Hot-Oil-Treatment.htm)
