Hi! im not able to be here daily, so this looks like a good thread for me to try. I read here a lot. My house doesn't have clutter or hotspots because I have a fantastic husband who won't put up with either AND contributes to daily cleaning. so, my five by Friday will be seasonal or sporadic things that aren't part of my daily or weekly lists. 1. Three staff thank you notes Done Tues 5/272. Three student positive referrals Nope, but I dealt with several bad behavior referrals. 3. Four EOY evaluations (28 total to do) Five done so far. I'll try to get three more done this week. It's not taking as long as I anticipated. They all have to be done by June 12! ETA: I did get another half hour of prep work for this in, but I didn't actually complete anymore. 4. Get Bill the Dog's flea/heart worm meds DH took care of it! Does that mean I have to add another? 5. Determine 4th of July plans This is as done as I can get it. We made plans with SIL & BIL, and they are looking into the lodging.
Hmmm... four out of five isn't too bad

Today I:
1. Washed windows in "kitchen" and "bedroom". I have 2 windows in the place.
2. Ran sweeper thought out the place.
3. Changed both curtains.
4. Took car to get muffler fixed. Couldn't be done there so have an appointment next Wednesday to get it done.
5. Filled 5 water bottles and put them in the refrigerator. Filled one with cranberry juice.
6. Took a hot shower.
Does anyone have a good remedy for dust mite bites, sort of like sand mite bites? I am allergic to dust and dust mites and cleaning out the other room, I got bitten badly. I've heard apple cider vinegar is a good one. I have cortisone and it helps but only for an hour or two.

3cats, do you have any oral antihistamines? I think that would help. I'm surprised the cortisone cream doesn't last longer. I hope you feel better soon. You certainly got a lot done!

I did get a box of Clariton, I forgot about it until just now. I put it away so it wouldn't get lost. Cats knock stuff off the stand and then play soccer with it and it gets hidden until I run the sweeper. I got it for the breathing problems I had when I used the broom to sweep the other room. I couldn't breath after I did that so I took another hot shower and rested until my breathing came back to normal. I only work out there for 10 minutes at a time now. I am going to take one now. Thanks debt.
