spring break day one

so this spring break i have a TON of work to do, including two take home midterms that are 30 and 20 pages each, NOT fun!! so what did i do the first day of spring break?

-investigated 12 different apartments online and by calling for more information. most were shot down completely for being too expensive, or not big enough. Two were shot down because they were income restricted and we make too much money to live there. two are in the area that we really liked on saturday. and we have four appointments for this saturday. Some of them as so great and have really great deals right now!! I want to move in tomorrow for sure! i know that we can't really move until our lease it up here, if we do break our lease it's a penalty of like 600 bucks! so we'll be waiting, and hoping that they have great deals in May/June!

-i have done or will do 5 loads of laundry before the day is over. I love to do laundry, it's actually one of my favorite chores around the house. i like to wait and do it all in one day though, and that makes it a big chore, but it doesn't make sense to do it until i have a full load of colors, whites and darks, and audie and i just don't have enough clothes to do that. when i was little my mom did laundry once a week too unless she had to so i guess that's where i get it from. i usually do clothes about every 2-3 weeks, and it has been nearly a month since i last did laundry, we were scraping the bottom of the clothes pile!! i actually wore a cotton dress, tights and a cardigan apartment hunting and babysitting saturday because i was so out of clothes! you know that the only excuse i can give for dressing up, no clean clothes!

- i made dinner for my hubby and me! I am making steamed peas (one of those frozen steamer bags of veggies. they were on sale and i had a coupon, so i bought three different kinds) Mac and Cheese, my mom's yummy baked kind, and BBQ pork loin. all i do is marinate them in our favorite BBQ sauce and then pour some more on top and bake them for 30 minutes or so, easy peasy!! also i might have some cresent rolls or something!

- i also read for a good well, no not stupid school reading, but Harry Potter 6! ok yeah i should be getting on to doing those big homework assignments but i just couldn't today!

i hope you enjoyed your day as much as mine was!
