Got to the store early this morning to pick up the pet food.
Almost out of it for Gypsy. Just a few other things to pick up and home again.

Been doing a few things here and there around the house, and am not preparing to get ready for church.

Never did get downstairs!

I got EVERYTHING on my list of things to do today, PLUS cleaned out the grinder!!! I am going to go play a game with DD#2, then get back to practicing my song for tomorrow AM.

Please pray for me, cuz I had to switch songs last minute due to a technical difficulty. Not what I'd like to do, but I'm pressing on!!

Cya!

Busy ladies all of you!

Diana - Yes that is the best thing about being a GONER being able to goof off and know that the house is still presentable.

Slow day today as I was out last night (Friday) with my best friend until 2.30am dancing and catching up. She lives several hundred miles away so when she comes to visit every few months we regress to a pair of teenagers lol.

I have packaged my ebay, and put the laundry away. DS and I played cars and then we took a nap. On waking we had dinner and I did the dishes afterwards. I have just finished doing some sewing and I am now off to read in bed night all.

Got a fair bit done today.

As they had the pavement/walkway up again I took the Dog for a nice slow stroll as Dad couldnt go there with his scooter. My dog is such a slow walker, he has to sniff every blade of grass and every pole/tree etc.

After a tea break I tackled the bits box in the bedroom, and got it down to a quarter that was there. I then found an empty draw under the wardrobe so put my winter shoes in there, and chucked a warn out pair. I then got a few bits from under the bed and sorted that. Iv moved my dogs big bed to the side next to my blanket box, which I put all my quilts on top with his igloo bed on top. He seems happy about it.

Iv next got to tackle the breeding books, and decide what books are going up to the very top shelves, in the book case etc. Its a pretty big job, so Im going to take all next week to do it.

My course starts at the end of the week, so Im hoping to get the desk (all books) cleared for then. Im getting nervous now but still excited.

My back started to ache so Iv done my physio and will rest up for the remainder of the day.

Get the guest room ready
Sweep the floors and hopefully mop today
Tackle our room which is cluttered

I've had a busy weekend so far.

Friday I finally got my job installed, then when I got home I had to get some things to the accountants. If you remember, DGF and I spent two whole days doing my quickbooks back in November. So I hit the Profit/Loss key, printed the report, and something told me to check the numbers against my bank account. I was off by thousands of dollars. I couldn't find out where the mistake was, (somewhere in the program something is in the wrong category (ies).

After playing with it for two hours, I decided to do it all over in my old Excel format. I started at 6 am yesterday and finished at 6 pm, blinded by numbers! And I only got three months done.

So I guess I am not ready for my taxes like I thought I was. Now I am wondering if the past years taxes are correct. So much to be said about pencil and paper.

DGF can come down this week and work on correcting the categories but I needed the past three months yesterday.

I had papers everywhere in the office, but I cleaned all of them up and filed everything away. I looks decent in here this morning.

Got nothing else done yesterday except for Laura popping in. I was glad to sit and have a drink with her after a long day.

I still have laundry to catch up on and if I feel like it, I have a small local job I can do later if the customer is around.

Wow you all are so busy! Great going!

Wendy:
Hoping the song went well. I know it did. They are so lucky you and the gals inspire them with your music at church I am sure.

Waterlady:
You poor woman! I hate numbers, but looking for an error!
Frustrating. Hoping the error was in your favor.

I have to do my taxes too, have two days at home this week, will do them then.

Fleur:
You are always so busy and have so much stay over company, you are amazing!!!!! Put a file or box on the dining room table and put the papers in there, they will be all contained and then you just have the file and box to clear up when you need to! Just a thought.

So glad you and DH were able to date. Sounded like fun.

PurdyBear:
You will do great in school! I am so happy for you.

Karen:
Sounded like lots of fun with your friend. It is good to be a teenager once in awhile.

Tinytina:
Good going on your days off. Glad you rewarded yourself too.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Finished a book this morning, did some embroidery (almost finished with the tablecloth, it is small). Changed out the litter box, put some decorations back out into the garage (Valenetine), cleaned up the laundry room, put books into the front hall closet, snow is all melted. Did my devotions and ETEd what I needed to.

Have to let the grandpups out at noon, and do my babystep in the basement and then will play the rest of the day doing crafts or reading or napping or watching tv.

We are getting cleaning done, slowly but surely. Cleared off dining room table and polished, moved out all the dining room furniture and swept/mopped, got all the dust bunnies off the chair feet, and put all back. Made bread in the bread maker and cookies to bring over for lunch. 3 loads of laundry washed, 1 folded and put away, 2 more to dry and fold/put away.

Will tackle some more after we get back from lunch.
Dinaro, thanks for the great idea. I have a box for paperwork on a table in the living room...think I need to dump in there or move it to the dining room table.

Fleur, you are one busy woman!

I cleaned out a drawer and donated some costume jewelry and arranged what I kept neatly back in the drawer. Now I know what I have.

Took a shower, washed my hair, then bought a new hair styling brush online. Put some stuff on ebay. I'll check out the paperwork again later today. Did the few dishes and put them away.

Guess I will walk the dog soon, it's nice out.
