Hi All!

You guys are doing so well! This week is my "deal with late paperwork" week. I hav ovrdue bills and hav felt so guilty about them I hav not dealt with them - now i want to think positive and see this week as full of good.Yes, I am doing my best!
Most urgent are overdue letters and getting my finances in order.Must talk to bank since online banking does not work, something I need seems to be missing. So either call, write or visit bank.Deal with bills.Start making a list of things in storage I can sell or donate.Just got back from a conference and it was great having only what I needed.Yeah, my biggest nemy is depression due to being late re som bills.Helena

Finished doing the bags for Halloween. Tied up the tops.
This week I need to send out my treats for the DGSs.
Today will be my do what I want type day. Resting, reading, tv watching, crocheting or whatever I wish to do.

How are you all doing?

Hi, Everyone. I am going to have a day like you Diane. I am so tired and headachey, Lack of sleep last night. I will have a light lunch feed Charlie, DH is out for a bit. I do hope there will not be too many phonecalls I am not up to talking too much today. One of those low-profile kind of days they do happen and I know I have to go with it being the best GON er I can be . I will still ETE if nothing else. Enjoying reading you all. You are such nice folks. Ann 39

Ann:
Good to hear you are taking some ME time after you ETE.

I have been making some children's cards today. Been at it a few hours and now I need to quit and read or watch some tv.
Happy with the progress I made. Just need to pick up and put away now.

I am continuing with yesterday's JDIs today:

- laundry (washed 2 loads, hung up to dry, will put away tonight when they are dried)
- knit (working on the sweater sleeves)
- file/paperwork
- clear dresser top/dust
- clean mirror

jdi for sat
dailies
motivational show
windexing
branches

i stayed up 'til 7am, sat morning. i listened to another show, did the dailies for sat, put vinegar thru the coffee maker, ran and emptied the dw and washed a new sweater for the first time. other than that all i did sat was read email - about 55 of them in juno and stayed caught up on aol and the forum

sun, i took a shower and washed my hair, restocked both the pepsi and the coke, did most of the dailies, then went grocery shopping. i came home got everything put away, started a load of clothes, ate lunch and then watched 60 min. next i read enough juno email to mark off another batch of 30, read aol and then the forum. i'm going to watch cold case and put away the clothes in a few min.

i never did get the windexing or the branch work done as i was too tired sat and too bust w other things sun

Hi everyone!
So good to see all of you! Hoping your weekend was fun!

Today I have laundry to do. I have switched to Monday instead of Sunday's doing my few batches of laundry. There isn't much this week, due to doing so much last week. Should be done early today.

So my list for JDIs today:
Laundry
Put away
Cards for kids
crochet
Wrap a couple of gifts/ next week
ETE/PUPA

Never did get to the wrapping over the weekend. Wanted to work on the cards I had planned on doing, and of course, it takes longer to do than planned. LOL

Hoping you have a good day and week planned. Getting the JDIs done makes so much sense in keeping the house up.

Diana: Just like in the old rhyme: "Wash on Monday".

I didn't get to everything on my list, yesterday, but that's OK.

JDIs for today:

- bank
- pick up DD from rehearsals
- clean out fridge
- take trash cans to curb
- water the garden
- prep. dinner
- do dishes
- kitchen clean up
- knit

Yep, this way I can enjoy the Sunday as a day off!
Don't do the ironing on Tuesday though anymore! LOL

Did most of the list. Decided to wrap a few presents each day.

I wasn't able to get on earlier so I'll just post my Did It list

Did:
7 loads laundry
big batch of spaghetti sauce
double batch of cookies
cleaned kitchen
cleaned bathroom
bagged Hallowe'en goodies
took girls to gymnastics (60 mile round trip)
updated check book
called/emailed people for bday party
divided up meat to freeze
played candyland
played photo trek
changed sheets on bed

Needless to say, I'm very tired. Unfortunately, the water heater has run out, so I'll have to wait for a hot shower. Glad I decided to wait til morning to run the DW!

Tues JDI:
wash floors
sympathy cards
find out when funeral is
xstitch
scrapbook (if time permits)
make beef barley soup
emails
