What To Do Today?

I'm having the Young Women over tonight at 7pm to do their campfire cooking certification class for girl's camp. Jennifer VanVliet is doing Chicken Enchiladas and I'm doing peach cobbler in a dutch oven. The fire pit in our yard looks great, but I definitely need to mow the lawn today or we may loose one of the Beehives in the tall grass.

I also need to clean the main floor of my house because it's shamefully messy and I would be terribly embarrassed if any of the girls or leaders saw it in this almost condemed condition.

It would be really nice if I could powerwash the deck furniture for the pool area so I can have it set up today.

I also have to hem the edge of the flag that the girls need to decorate for camp.

While getting each of these things done, I also need to get to Pam Harmon's by noon for a birthday lunch for a sister that we visit-teach named Jennifer Mayfield.

In addition to all of these things, I just found that my freezer in the garage has almost completely defrosted because I bumped the plug yesturday while I was getting ready to trim the hedges, so it's been turned off for almost 24 hours. I'll need to work a freezer clean up into my schedule.

*Note to self: When using bleach to clean ANYTHING, even if it's a tiny bit and it's not going to take very long, and even if it's in the kitchen sink, wear an apron so you don't get speckles of bleach on the front of your favorite daytime dress.

*2nd Note to self: Find something blue that stains really well to color in the white bleach spots on your favorite dress. Do they make permanent markers in "denim" ?
