Good evening bloggers and blog-lurkers!

We are well into the primetime fall television viewing season! Here are my favorites in a ranked order, WITH the questions I need answered. Feel free to answer in the comments...

10. Justice - no question, just ruthless lawyers
9. (your favorite TV show here - what am I not watching that you think is a good show?)
8. Studio 60 - i can't ever stay awake for the whole episode, but I like what I've seen - but how strange is it to do a TV show about SNL?
7. Heroes - is the world going to end?
6. My Name is Earl - how long is this dang list? What will happen when he runs out of things to cross off the list?
5. The Office - will Jim EVER get his woman?
4. Scrubs - ok, I know it's not back on yet, but I love the show!
3. Grey's Anatomy - which man will win?
2. Bones - will Brennan and Booth EVER hook up?
and finally ......
1. LOST - I have LOTS of questions about this one... where do I start!

I have been off of work this entire week. I had taken the time initially when we thought we would be "rich" enough to go to a Realtor conference in TX. boy were we WAAYYY off base with that idea! My goal for the week: let's see how productive I can be while still sleeping as much as possible. So here's a recap of the week so far:

Monday: Took the boys to daycare (since our daycare has not yet figured out that most of them allow 2 weeks vacation without having to pay - we paid for it and I'm going to use it). Went to a doctor appointment. I slept most of the day. Picked the boys up from day care early. Played outside with them. Collected pinecones and made pinecone birdfeeders. (They thought this was great).

Tuesday: had the boys stay home since Aidan's diarreah had not cleared up. He did not have a BM all day. We played inside most of the morning. I put their new fall pictures in frames. Somehow Aidan had a papercut on his pinky finger. you would have thought the world had ended. "NONONONO bandaid!!!!" I gave Cole a bandaid to show Aidan it was ok, and Cole stuck it on his forehead and in his hair. We made it through that scene, ate lunch, made some cookies. Took a nap. Looked out the window at the birds and the squirrels. Played outside. Put up halloween decorations. (if you are looking for a cheap way to entertain toddlers for hours, get some of those static cling decorations you put on windows. they literally played with them forever last night). I finally got a shower, made dinner, ate dinner and went to choir practice.

Wednesday: Took the boys to daycare. Cole woke up saying, "no, I want to stay home with you mommy" sorry, I've got work to do. Went and paid my speeding ticket from 2 months ago (yikes!). It took me FOREVER because they have half of Summitt Hill Drive closed. I was never so confused about how to get to the police dept. I decided to go spend more money at my favorite thrift store. I got a bunch of stuff for $30, including a whole new outfit! after spending 2 hours there, came home and have been mowing the yard.

What I have left to do today, not in any particular order:
1. wash and change sheets on all 3 beds
2. finish mowing the yard, the hardest part, the ditch, that I have to use the push mower -- this will take longer than the rest of the yard combined
3. pick up check from consignment sale over the weekend
4. clean out my nasty van
5. go to Target
6. take a shower
7. get the boys from daycare
8. make dinner
9. go to church for small group meeting

Wow, I better get off the computer!
