What a week it's going to be

So right now I have so much going on that I need to get it down on paper computer before I feel like my brain is going to explode or I forget something. I realized that starting today until Wyatt's party next Saturday (1st) I have something going on all most everyday.

Friday (today)- 930a pick Colton up, Wyatt's school, Scrapbooking 4-12
Saturday- 1pm Derek and Wyatt go to Super cross for the day and I am working on Birthday party stuff
Sunday- Church, then usually dinner with friends
Monday- school
Tuesday- Ladies night
Wednesday- school, 530pm our Life Group is volunteering with the Bremerton Rescue at our church to feed the homeless
Thursday- 945-noon Kid's Craft Day
Friday- school
Saturday- 4-? Party/ BBQ 40 or so guests

-We would like to buy a few things to bring and donate to the Bremerton Rescue (the people need sleeping bags, tents, coolers, etc.) and I also need to bring a dessert for the meal. So that is shopping and cooking I need to do.

-Wed, Thurs, and Friday I have 3 packages coming with stuff for Wyatt's party.

-Now none of this even includes what I need to get ready and set up for the party- make list of what is left to buy, buy food and decorations, get games, prizes, balloons and tables from Candy, make signs, put together goodie bags, decorate Saturday(lots of that to do). Pray for no rain on Saturday. Still need to get his present, think we are getting him a bike with training wheels.

-Or all the house cleaning that will have to be done before the party. Which is the usual weekly chores plus a few extra things I would like to get done also before the party.

I am really thinking I need to make ONE master list (might be a whole notebook) of everything and keep on me at all times so as i get stuff or do something it can be crossed off.

I just ask that you all keep me and my family in your prayers as we make it through this week. Also any advice or words of encouragement would be nice too.

Meal Planning

So I have been laking on the meal planning the last couple of weeks due to camping and my retreat, but I need to get back on it. We eat out to much if i don't have anything planned. I am doing this early because my Sunday meal is in here too.

And the best place to find lots of meal ideas is over at Organized Junkie. There are over 300 bloggers who post their menus every Monday.

I also need to get some kind of system going on cleaning my house. I do not like having everyday completely planned out, that is just to much planning and drives my nuts, but I need to do something. So any ideas on what you do would be very helpful. My sister, Beth, has painted her fridge with chalkboard paint and puts her to do list on that everyday. I would post a picture, but (hint hint) she has not put one up on her blog yet. Hmm maybe that should go up on her fridge. LOL Love you Bethy.
