hi Ann: what a good idea to list worries and issues that have potential to cause depression. If you banish an item each day for 21 days it will become a habit to banish that issue...I think.

I too would like to figure out why there is so much laundry! Great idea to take quilt to the giant machines at the Laundromat. Another option might be using a duvet cover. I won't recommend that on the day I'm wrestling a quilt into a duvet cover.

I went to the auction today as my reward for getting deck furniture cleaned and ready to go upstairs. Sadly I was outbid on the two items I wanted. Watching folks getting so determined and excited provided priceless entertainment. The lady to my left was so involved in the atmosphere she was bidding on stuff she didn't want. She kept telling me how happy she was that she was being out-bid as her place is really too small and we agreed prices were higher than retail.

Ann, that's a neat idea. I never thought of making that kind of a list. I do have a book I sometimes write my feelings in when things seem screwy, where I try to identify what is going on in my head!

Cyd I haven't been to an auction in years but used to enjoy a TV program where people paid the most ridiculous prices for things. Too bad you missed out on your items but great that you had the sense to make a limit when bidding.

I've just got back yesterday from a lovely family visit. It was fun to be out in the yard with DGD and hear her telling passing neighbours "my grandma's here"!

The weather seems to be warming up at last and there is a heavy mist this morning, revealing little spider webs here and there in the yard.

JDI:
e-mail DH - DONE
Phone DSF - try again
Dailies
Return two calls left while I was away
Dust and vacuum ground floor
Clean dining-room windows
Clean glass shades on light fitting
Go to town and run errands
Ironing

Ann
Good to see you again,and that you are doing better in organizing your list for your depression. (((((HUGS))))) and prayers.

Darlene:
You are doing so well with your bedroom decorating, and getting your mom settled and comfy.

~~~~~~~~~~~
Had a wonderful vacation, and am ready to get back and get something accomplished. Getting away for a few days was very refreshing.

So glad the house was clean for my return home.
DS2 and DDIL did some outside work for me for Mother's day (a little early but knew I would be nervous with the burn pile part of it). He videoed it for me. Had some lily of the valley flowers on my bedside table from DDIL! I am so blessed!
Back to work!

Thank you Bless for putting up the new month~
