Waterlady - flings bottle your way!


I got a fare bit done today:

1. I walked the dog as it was raining and Dad doesn't like to go out on his scooter in the wet.
2. Trimmed more roses and got rid of some more bind weed.
3. Fed the fish.
4. Did the usual meals.
5. Got the rubbish, recycling and accounts done.
6. Looked up the spelling rules on line and printed off the maths time tables up to 30 x.
7. Half the ironing done.

Yesterday afternoon, as planned, I took DD to campus to pick up her pay check, went to the ethnic grocery store and indulged in several "tastes of home" comfort food items, took DD shopping for clothes (she bought 17 items for $114 total!), and came home and took a long nap (not planned, but much needed after all that clothes shopping!) Afterwards, I laundered my bedding, replaced 3 broken slats in the family room vertical blinds (and washed the blinds), cooked dinner and ran the dishwasher. Then, stayed up late, reading!

Enjoying the day...took the dogs out for a long walk. DH and I got some stuff done around the house (gardening for DH and I got the stuff off the kitchen floor (from our patio redo), moved to appropriate places, swept and mopped the kitchen floor. Two loads of laundry in the process. Packed up to go to the sprayground and had a blast with DS. Got him a shower and lunch after coming home, wiped down kitchen table.

DH went to help out his brother for the afternoon...have a few hours to get stuff done (if I don't take a nap!).
Working on cleaning/decluttering the master bedroom and making progress. Found our video battery charger that I lost in March...woohoo!

Love that you found your video battery charger Fleur! That is nice when we find "lost" items when decluttering.

Bless,that was a good shopping trip with DD! She is frugal like her mom....

WL:
You have been over busy lately, nice to see you taking a break!

Sunday was a good day. I picked up my niece, age 7, and we stayed busy eating, buying paint and new bathroom fixtures, getting pedicures and manicures, then she got to meet one of my friends. The three of us spent this beautiful evening sitting on the tailgate of my pickup at our property out in the country watching the sun go down. It doesn't get much better than that, especially when I did it without feeling guilty that I wasn't doing something at the house.

The contractor will get back to work on my bathroom tomorrow after taking a week off. Getting that room completed will relieve some stress and I am just really excited to have something new!

Everyone have a great week!

Today's productivity included doing 4 loads of laundry, tidying the family room, working on the office document, going through a bag of papers and reading.

Half way through the day and feel I've got a lot done on my todo list which is huggggggggggggggge:

1. Changed the beds, and cleaned my room up.
2. Pile all the paperwork to be sorted into a huge tote. I'm sure it breeds in the night.
3. Did a card for one of my Drs who is retireing soon.
4. Tested the smoke alarms.
5. Went through my English flash cards and began to do some for maths time tables.

I've got loads to do this afternoon but I will see how I'm going and have a long rest if I'm not up to it.

Purdy:
Take a reward! That helps to continue in our quest to get our lists done!

I am very happy with my June Productivity, even if I didn't do it, I scheduled it and paid for it, so I am going to count it!
So I had the carpeting cleaned, rooms all put back together and cleaned, the windows washed on both sides, cleaned screens also,
yard completely weeded and brought back to order! WHOOOOO HOOOOOOO This gal is happy dancing away!

Purdy, I hear you on the papers breeding in the night. I think they breed every time I turn my back!

Was a beautiful day again yesterday. I barely got anything done. Sat on the deck and did a lot of the Sunday Crossword puzzle.

Got the tomatoes in town and made a new pasta salad. Picked up two things at the hardware store and got a few items at the super drug store. Sometimes their prices are much lower than the supermarket and I had some "extra bucks" to make it even cheaper. I love a bargain!

Laura made dinner and I shared the pasta salad. Honestly I don't know what I did all day, but I know I took it easy!

Made a mediocre new recipe last night, but a nice new summer dessert (ambrosia). Watched warhorse. This morning, took the dogs for long walk, vacuumed and cleaned out the car, packed up my bike and brought it to the store to get the tires pumped up, met friend and her lo for playdate and lunch, made pool plans with her for tmorrow, back for no nap for DS. Two loads of laundry in progress. Going to farmers market in a bit and back home for some playtime!
