What did you accomplish today?

[WingsOnFire]

I managed to work 4 hours after waking up with a nasty head cold. I forced the dogs out at least twice in the rain. Im sure I will be woken up at mid night.

[JDeere]

Finished laundry this morning before work, worked my 8 hours and then cleaned up my room.

[easygoingfemme]

Finally wrapped up an audit of my 2015 state tax return. After months of faxing in documents and getting mail saying that it's never enough I had an official meeting with the tax people who said, ok, you're legit and everything is in order and everything you submitted was fine, you're good to go. Crazy making - the whole thing- including the mail I got about the appointment with them today that gave me GPS coordinates rather than a street address, no visitor parking at the building, signs everywhere that you'll be towed, on and on. I asked them at the meeting if they intentionally made this insanely difficult for people so that they won't fight the denials and surrender their tax returns. They didn't answer me. Whatever, I fought through it and came out on top.

[Kätzchen]

I pretty much did as little as possible: But I managed to do a few chores around the house, the laundry is dried, folded and put away. I colored in my coloring book, for awhile. I send the pretty pictures to my eldest son, kind of like a home made card with a few interesting things to share about life, here at home.

Now that I'm pretty much caught up with chores, I'm going to sit tight here and read posts, then probably retire to the kitchen and see about making something to eat for supper.

I ate all of my chocolate, too. :)

[Kätzchen]

I teamed up with staff at my nursing facility to submit invoices to my worker comp team, so providers of certain services will be paid fully for services.

Put my six-figure student loan debt in another round of year long deferment status.

Had an amazing session with the PT team, earlier today. I've been working on climbing up and depending stairs. Was terribly tired after my session, but so proud of my progress.

Really grateful for my team at work..... my boss and his wife dropped by to visit me earlier, meet the staff here, and gave me a card signed off by everyone at work (including a couple of interlopers from other agencies in our building). I gave them a brief tour of the facility... so my extra walking today counts toward my therapeutic goals of recovery.

[Chad]

I figured out what was wrong with the riding lawn mower.
It was the gaskets in the carborator bowl where the float is. The gaskets were worn out causing the fuel to leak out starving the carborator of fuel. On Friday I will go to the hardware store for parts and have the mower up and running soon.

Since the riding mower was down I mowed two acres with a push mower and trimmed the weeds around the house.

Now I will start prepping the turkey and sides for T-day.

I still need to tidy the house.

[Soft*Silver]

I cant ride my horse much due to my disability but she still needs exercise so every other day if I cant ride, I lunge her. Today was a lunging day. I dont know who was more out of breath...me or her. Both out of shape! LOL.

Went to visit the grand child and played blocks with her. Until I have surgery to correct my hips, I cant sit on the floor..broke my heart when she asked me to sit with her on the floor. I was still able to play blocks from the couch tho

[JDeere]

Not a thing but lay around and be lazy.

[Orema]

I got almost 12 hours of sleep and I needed it.

[Chad]

The turkey is in the oven in grandmother's roaster. I hope it turns out well.

[Gemme]

I slept late, made my bed, worked on a craft project, went to the gym and ate my Turkey Day brunch.

[kittygrrl]

dinner:badcook:

[introverted1]

I woke up at my usual ridiculously early time, but made myself stay in bed and eventually fell back asleep...until my best friend's cats began beating on my door to feed them (I'm cat sitting while friend and her wife are vacationing)! I got up, fed dem katz, foraged out in the world for coffee (forgot that friends do not have a coffee maker), had breakfast, went for a hike and made my Thanksgiving dinner.

[BullDog]

I ended up mowing my entire lawn - front and back (1/2 acre) - kinda by accident. I really was just trying to drain the gas (my idea of "winterizing") but the mower kept going and going. I really didn't think much gas was in it. I fought all summer with that damn mower to stay on for like 5 minutes at a time. Well, it doesn't hurt, lol.

Also, laundry, writing and other biz work, misc. chores.

[candy_coated_bitch]

Not a damn thing.

[easygoingfemme]

I went grocery shopping.
Made Lentil soup, empanadas, and roasted beets.
Raked the lawn and finished putting summer things into the garage for the winter.

Thwarted some attempted arguments
Drove my kid around
Helped said kid with her resume

Read my book club book, but not enough of it
Exercised

[Rockinonahigh]

I did another exercise session to stretch my left leg ad knee, then did some all around things that just burned time
Then after a while I touched base with an old friend, we had a nice chat then decided to stay in touch.

[cinnamongrrl]

Dried laundry on the rack inside since it rained all day..

Put laundry away and organized my bedroom a bit better

[Chad]

I drove four hours to attend a meeting and conduct a site visit by boat. I then drove four hours home, I ate a burger while driving 75 miles per hour down the highway. It was a 14 day.

I came home to winterize my house in the dark because it is going to freeze in my area this week.

Is it Friday yet?

[RockOn]

kept my mouth shut ... this accomplished ---- >>> still having a job to go to in the morning. ;)

[Medusa]

So far I have accomplished maintaining my gratitude for my job even though I work with a couple of extremely inconsiderate, extremely entitled people who really have no business in a white-collar environment.

But I'm not bitter. :P

[Jesse]

I woke up at 4 am full of energy this morning; it's now just after the noon hour and I am starting to slow down.

I cooked and got dinner dishes washed up.

Oh yeah, I also took down my small tree and got it and the other decorations boxed up for next year. ;)

[Gemme]

I will have to wait and see on that.

[stargazingboi]

Tax season starts this months ...so, I have been in training the past two days.

[Jesse]

After much research I finally decided to bite the bullet and try my hand at brewing Kombucha tea rather than spend $4 per bottle for premade. I am doing it the slow way which involves growing the scoby myself so as to avoid paying $25 one. This way too, I know the sanitary measures taken and I can grow it to work with green and/or black teas. If it grows as it is supposed to, I will only have to do it once as each batch of Kombucha tea grows a new scoby. I will know in a couple of weeks if I succeeded in my efforts. :)

Just checked on my Kombucha jar to see how the scoby baby making process is going. It has been 96 hours now and it looks like an alien science project...which is what it really is. All of the good little bacteria are doing their thing. :)

[RockOn]

Cleaned kitchen and bathrooms before daylight

Cleared yards with Toro blower and so thankful I did not see any snakes. SIDENOTE: I questioned my mental health the day AFTER I caught that copperhead on DEC 26th but I had told myself prior to the live catch, I needed to catch the next one, research for myself that they cannot crawl up super slick surfaces. It is true, that one could never make it up the side of the 5 gallon water bottle even with extrodinary effort. About the mental stuff, I am somewhat of an adrenaline junkie and it made me feel quite lively during the catch phase. That next day, when my supervisor said I could not bring it inside the building for show and tell, that is when I starting wondering to self if perhaps it was not one of my keener ideas.

Disassembled several large very heavy wood pieces I scavenged from the industrial park ... wanted all the great, useable hardware from them and already have plans for it ... loaded all the resulting wood pieces from the breakdown on the truck to haul off.

Washed clothes on and off all day - kept that task going whenever I would come inside

Took dogs on four walks, plus did the set up for them to have numerous ice cube parties, they are so funny when I yell "ice cube party"

About an hour before dark, loaded 3 firearms onto the truck, drove to the dead end and into the thickly wooded hunting area where we walk ... I had a notebook, sat on the back of the truck and wrote on each target what caliber or which shotgun, how many feet to that target and exact brand/ load of shot... got measuring tape, walked off distance for each target and placed it in particular order to match how I loaded each firearm ... and by the time I was ready to shoot, it was getting dark, of course I forgot my flash light and head lamp ... though I could not see them, I became aware of having an audience - I could hear them walking around ... glad they came, I want them to associate me with loud bang noises ... anyway, I did some fast shooting, came back to the house, fed Jennifer, Kevie and myself ... put their portable foam mattress out on the ground and revived up their last ice cube party of this day for them ... we three sat outside under lots of floodlights, relaxing like that at the end of a wonderful day. It felt swell :)

[Kätzchen]

Practiced my physical therapy exercises,
Devoted my afternoon to occupational therapy exercise,
Filled out paperwork for several doctor appt visits this week,
Put several bags of donations (clothes, etc) together,
And spent some time talking on the phone with my mom.

[Chad]

This morning I went to get my blood drown for tests. Next, I went to Petsmart where a local animal shelter had dogs and cats for adoption. I got the cutest year old kitten to keep my kitty company.

I went grocery shopping and started my taxes.
Taxes ugg what a chore.

Now time to play with the kitten. Yay!

[Gemme]

In the past 4 hours and change, I have made my bed, dressed for the gym, checked email and ate a banana, went to the gym, went grocery shopping, put the groceries away and ate brunch while watching TV, brushed my teeth and showered and now I'm in the process of dressing for the day and playing online here.

[cinnamongrrl]

It all started with hanging blinds...

I got two new blinds for my kitchen. When I went to hang them, I noticed my sills were dirty and needed vacuuming. So I went to get the vacuum...and decided along the way to vacuum the living room.

Then I started organizing my linens. I've been wanting to for ages.

Did two loads of wash and hung them out. Its nearly 70° today!

Dusted the living room while I was on the phone

Now need to clean in the kitchen and finish hanging blinds.

Next is dishes and organizing under the bathroom vanity.

I had coffee with 3 shots of espresso on the way home. I'm having a very productive day :)

[Jesse]

Started the day by paying the monthly bills over a cup of coffee, & renewing my BFP membership.

Started a fresh batch of Kefir water, and set the original batch up for it's second ferment with fresh blueberries and a slice of ginger added. Also ordered a Kombucha scoby because I managed to murder the one I was growing. :(

Walked 4 blocks down & back to the lawn guy's house to pay him for this month's lawn service.

If you lived closer I'd suggest starting a cleaning company. We'd be a dream team!

[Jesse]

Let's do it! Lol!

At one point, I worked for an office cleaning company, it was a breeze because we went in after the offices were closed for the day and ran through our routines with no one to bother us. Later, I worked for a place that cleaned kitchens and restaurants, it paid well, but it was a nasty job! But those experiences enabled me to learn a few tricks of the trade that make cleaning simpler and more organized.

If you lived closer I'd suggest starting a cleaning company. We'd be a dream team!

[Chad]

I drove four hours to attend a two hour meeting then drove four hours home. The yucky part was getting stuck in Houston during rush hour traffic.

I am super happy to be home.

:cowboy:

[candy_coated_bitch]

I napped a lot
I studied my tarot card for the day and did a write up
I sorted laundry

[Gemme]

So far, I've made my bed, made and ate my breakfast, wiped down the kitchen and got any and all loose plates and kitchen implements into the dishwasher, picked out my clothes for the day and now it's shower time.

[Chad]

I drove four hours to meet my team at the boat ramp, rode the boat around my project for four hours, then drove four hours to get home. It was 85 degrees and sunny on the bay.

It was a great work day.

:sailing:

[cinnamongrrl]

I actually got some sleep last night at work...so....

I came home with the hope and desire to do some yoga and cleaning...then the nice man came and reminded me that I needed to pay my electric bill. Well...guess I shouldn't leave that bill to my daughter either...

so

I went to the bank and got money for the bill, paid it

did my recycling while I was in the area

stopped and did my bulkier items at the laundromat. I don't have a dryer and some things need drying.

I did 2 loads of wash and hung them out to dry at home

paid my phone bill

raked my front yard

did some general cleaning.

remembered to shower after all of that...

[Gayandgray]

Helped my spouse shower and took her to doctor appt. and then to get her hair cut. Cleaned house, cooked, medicated all the dogs, poured spouse's pills for the week, did laundry, got my clothes, toolbelt, etc. laid out for work tomorrow, showered, now I'm watching tv and posting on here.:hangloose:

[Chad]

I went into the office for a few hours then drove four hours to attend the award ceremony. After the awards I drove four hours home.

It was a 16 hour work day.

[Bèsame*]

Capturing the Confetti kitty to take her to the vet. I didn't have to chase or crawl or get scratched! Now that's an accomplishment!

[Glenn]

Because of a record-breaking warm winter here, a controlled burn in the woods only thirty feet away from my B&B, is scheduled to occur here in an hour. I set up and filled with water, a long row of large containers along the entire length of the B&B, plus put out two garden hoses, and then drove to my local fire station 3 miles away, explained to them how a "burn" only 30 feet away from my B&B is a little too close, and asked for an emergency phone number to call them direct.

[clay]

Cleaning up some around my honey's apartment.

Making huge pot of soup to freeze so she has meals for a while.

A nap earlier today since I was up at 545am!

Going to get my honey in a while, so we can go to a local girl on girl game show premiere that we are one of the competing couples in, "How Well Do You Know One Another". I am so excited & think it will be a huge fun adventure...:).

Thank god you have tomorrow off bud! You're going to need a day to rest up

Haha! I do this work every weekend. I am the only human on the ranch so I do it all from mowing to cleaning the house.

[easygoingfemme]

There was a big blowout last weekend at the music festival that I am one of the directors of when the general manager of a hotel that hosts part of the festival removed and refused our gender neutral bathroom that I had set up (with the approval of the event managers at the hotel)

Today, after a week of fighting back on multiple levels, I got it in writing and in contract that we will have two full size gender neutral bathrooms at their hotel during our festival next year.

I also kicked ass at my regular full time job all day.

[Kenna]

Several phone calls to coordinate future events. Made lunch for me and the boys.

Then I managed to get to-and-from two medical appointments safely today; a complicated PT visit and a kidney ultrasound.

Heated leftovers for dinner.
Took care of boys.
Got comfy for the night.

[Medusa]

Work!
Registered my car!
12,000 steps!
Smiled like a Cheshire cat!
Laundry!
Dishes!
Corrected Bella's insistence on eating my makeup sponge about a bazillion times!

[RockOn]

remembered to renew truck tag

[Gayandgray]

Worked, dinner, dishes, laundry, helped spouse shower, poured meds, smiled a lot.

[Liam]

I completed my usual first day off chores early in the afternoon, and have the rest of today and all of tomorrow to do whatever I wish. Yay!

[SmoothButch]

I successfully installed rear shocks on my vehicle.

Took a long walk next to the creek with my neighbor and her dog.

At work now making some overtime. A short easy night.

[Soft*Silver]

I helped bring home my new grand daughter from the hospital! Brought the mom and dad dinner. Loved up on my first grand daughter who is now almost three. It was a wonderful family day!

Today I finished painting my bedroom...only a week after starting it...

I had to do all the top trim work and one corner

Then I washed both bedroom windows and their storms, screens, sills and frames

Vacuumed the bedroom with special attention to the edges and corners..

Cleaned up all the paint nonsense for now


Now need to get trash bags so I can get my daughter's things out of the closet and make room for my own.

Tomorrow I need to take apart my bed, paint the frame and move it into my new bedroom.
Its coming along. ..just slowly

[Soft*Silver]

absolutely nothing. I decided today, Saturday, would be a true day off. I work my butt off most days so I feel no guilt about this at all! LOL

[pajama]

Since it snowed, and is now mud, I didn't unload the dirt from the truck into my raised bed. But I did take apart the mountain bike I was loaned and got the new tires, tubes, and pedals ordered so I'll be ready for prettier days.

[JDeere]

Unloaded and reloaded the dishwasher
Cleaned my room up a bit
Took a quick nap
Brought trash can up from street to side of house

[easygoingfemme]

Post office to return some items I purchased and changed my mind on.
Exchanged a dress for a better fitting size
Filled up gas tank on car.
Went to library to pick up books on hold.
Grocery shopping.
Swept and mopped floors and washed windows.
Rowed 4 miles.
Made a big batch of turkey chili.

[RockOn]

Cut down all the azalea bushes on the front of my property. This time, I worked smart on the bushes. I have a lot of cable wire that I get from the cable company. They waste so much. They just throw it out.

Anyway, I tied each bush up really tight with the cable wire. Made it easier cutting with the chainsaw. The really big deal is I drag one huge wad of bush and throw on the truck. Less work and less bloodshed too!! WIN-WIN METHOD!!

Next I dug my trench around the front of the house. I will dose it up good next week (rain predicted tomorrow) with the vinagar, salt and Original Dawn Dishwashing Concentrate ... cover it over, then spray the top about 2 feet out from the foundation with same mixture. That will keep it free of any type vegetation for a very long time.

Bagged up four bags of pine mulch. Now that is hard work. Scraping the forest floor means removing eight to twelve inches in some places ... and it is wet, very yucky close to the ground. I just do a little section at a time.

Came across two snakes. Almost stepped on one. (near chit myself) Grabbed my snake-slayer and glasses. Once I put on my glasses, I could see coloring better and knew he was a good guy. Both were non-venomous so they continued to live.

I had a fun day just very tired now.

Last task, then we are going to bed. Jennifer and Kevin are sleeping now. They worked hard too! :) Will walk down to the hunting property shortly, dump a magazine into the woodpile - coyotes are back in numbers. I won't see any for a few weeks after I make all that loud racket down there.

Then bedtime! YAY BEDTIME! *laughing*

[cinnamongrrl]

I emptied the closet of my daughter's things and put my own in

Put away heaping mounds of clean laundry. Im not even exaggerating

Went through various boxes along the way; organized them by owner and purged things I no longer need or want

Found my depression glass!!!!

Found the air pump to fill various things around the house.

Started putting boxes that have been holding vigil in the hall in the newly empty spare room closet.

Vacuumed as I went along

Made a good lunch

Did a lot of recycling

Getting stuff done in baby steps...

Tomorrow is moving my bed in my new room, painting the headboard and figuring out the layout of my new room.

As well as vacuuming living room.

Forgot to mention. ..and im rather proud. .I got an HD antenna and a universal remote for my TV. I managed to install and program them. I didn't even have to use tools. .but still so fulfilling :)

[Breathless]

Reading everything that everyone has done.. I feel soooo under accomplished!!! I made it to work, first full day back, and it looks like I am going to make it till the end of shift. :) I am happy with this.

Well what started off as a great day came to a halt when i got to work. 9 hours of pure crazy. it will take 5 days to correct what took two days to complete, i did accomplish putting out one fire, but i have more to go, tomorrow is another day...

Power walked about a mile and a half at lunch...got to see downtown by foot which was a great break!

left work late, got stuck in a major traffic jam, missed my exit so my 15 minute commute was over an hour long (i trust the universe here)

took a LONG hot bath with some wonderful essential oils, shaved (including my large toes, because i like 'em smooth) washed and conditioned my hair, exfoliated, walked the dog, vacuumed the place, scrubbed the bathroom, dishes are ready to roll in the dishwasher (i rarely use it) and i have the rugs in the washer.

my mom called and put me through a very stressful convo and tried her best guilt trick in the book to make me feel bad about being here, but it did not work, nope it did not.

Gotta cuppa half calf and i am going to sit here for a while with my puppy dog.

over the weekend, my teen age helper and I put together a 25' x 3' bed of berries. 6 blueberry plants, 2 red raspberry plants and 2 blackberry plants. He dug the trench, then filled it with the special soil and fertilizer I went and bought, then we planted them and mulched the entire bed. Additionally in other parts of the yard, we planted a lilac bush, a beautiful apricot foxglove, a few gayfeathers, 2 bleeding hearts and several pots of pansies. We cleared out winter debris, threw out yard furniture that has seen its better day, and scrubbed down the kennel.

I also took my grand daughter and daughter to a children's clothing store and bought a helluva lot of clothes for both grand daughters. They should be set now for summer.

I am BEAT. But alot got done today. Next weekend, we tackle the garage..its all getting cleared out...

I trimmed my hair just a skosh, gave my hair a conditioning treatment, saged my house, cussed out the squirrel (lmao), gave myself a pedicure and manicure, I've got supper cooking out in the kitchen, pinched off some frosting on the carrot cake after my manicure dried, and now I am (until I have to go back out to the kitchen to check on the chicken) sitting in my lounge chair, watching it storm outside. But, I can see blue sky too. :)

[NavyButch]

About a half hour ago my new washer was delivered and hooked up. My old one died a couple of weeks ago- and I have gone to the laundromat since to wash my clothes and then brought them home to dry them. I do research most times when I make a big purchase- that is why it has been 2 weeks- I wanted to make sure I bought something I was happy with.

Not sure I really accomplished anything given the guy brought it and hooked it up. haha But, I feel like I did, so I am going with it.

[bright_arrow]

Got up at 9 after going to bed at 3, unloaded and loaded the dishwasher, did the litter box and then sat down to knock out some homework while the rest of the house sleeps.

[girl_dee]

my helper Jared put together my grand daughter's plastic play house for the back yard. I put weed killer on all the Sticky Willie and poison ivy thats all over the place. We went looking for a screen door but found none that would work. And then we designed the new flower beds and put together a hollyhock/delphinium garden bed

I worked hard today and had to help a customer with a lot of heavy lifting and then I went and did an Escape (https://www.renegadefit.net/team-training) (this is not my gym and they call it Move It here but it's the same thing) workout at one of my gyms. I'm super proud that I finished 3 rounds! Then I went grocery shopping. I'm pooped!

Sadly, no. That's why I'm taking these classes. Shopping's more of a relaxing thing for me so it wasn't a struggle. I was tired when I got home, though!

I just mowed 4 acres and now I need to trim around the house.

Bonus, I remembered to wear sun block. Yay!

[Gemme]

I worked and have eaten and am now canoodling with the TV and internet.

[Soft*Silver]

lawd...I am tired.

I went to four garage sales. Bought a wooden screen door and had my young helper put it up today. Also bought a doggie gate, some clothes for the grand children, and some toys.

Went to Dollar Store, bought small pool and swim ring and get it set up for said grand child

Repotted brussel sprouts and tomatoes.

Planted 15 more peppers, 8 more punkins and a Roma tomato plant whose seed actually came from Rome Italy

pulled out many more large pots for more container gardening. Washed and started filling them with potting soil..ran out. Gotta go buy more soon

[Gemme]

I woke up. Yes! I went to the gym. Awesome! I'm eating. Excellent! I'm talking to my honey. Score!

[Kätzchen]

I sort of got up late today, after finally falling asleep last night after 3am..... So, so far today, I've added fresh vegetables to my soup that is simmering on the stove. I added more fresh string green beans, shitake mushrooms, cloves of garlic and more organic veggie broth. I'm nursing a soup diet, for awhile. It's fairly delicious and filling, so I'll stick with it, for awhile....

I just took a nice long hot shower.

Mani and Pedi is next, while I listen to a song Playlist of hits by The Grateful Dead.

After awhile, I plan to catch up on a few small household chores.

Then have soup for supper, then snuggle up with my pillows in bed and read one of the books I've been trying to read.

[JDeere]

I did all that was on my "to do" list!

washed dirty Laundry
organized my dresser drawers
folded and put up clothes
cleaned up the bathroom and threw away old stuff

[Bèsame*]

Beautiful day off! Slept in, any day without an alarm is a very good morning!

Knocked out household stuff, laundry, some gardening. We walked to get lunch. Picked up peanut butter ice cream, and walked home really fast..lol

Been watching movies, playing in the craft room and just relaxing after a busy work week.

Dinner will be easy...Shrimp cocktails and a fresh fruit bowl. Peanut butter sundaes!!!! (Bought hot fudge, will be like a peanut butter cup. We have been talking about them all day..lol)

[RockOn]

Took some pallets apart, removed nails, stacked boards to put in storage room - these are super nice boards, won't require much sanding, threw left overs on wood bones pile to be hauled away

Built a little cover for the dogs' water bowls so the water will stay cooler longer - lots of ice cubes help. I see the bowl gets empty quicker now and have to refill more often. I don't blame them for not liking the warm water when they are playing, running and wrestling so hard.

Mowed lawn in 30 minute spurts until it was done. Too hot to cut the whole yards all at once.

Went through some boxes I had been wanting to sort. Threw out a lot. Found 3 of my fossil watches from years and years ago ... in fact, 2 are from the 1990s. All they need is new batteries. And a favorite pocket knife from the 90s too. I had forgotten all about it. Without opening it, it felt really good in my hand. :)

It became dark not long after I finished mowing. I will load all the throw away stuff later.

I am all tuckered out and feel so good about todays accomplishments.
:)

[Bard]

Got the photos of the wedding downloaded edited and a selection added to my photography page ( over 800 shots lol) even as my laptop was being very grumpy with me. Had a great text chat with my daughter about her day and her excitement on taking her honors class next year

well, I finally secured the hotel for our trip to Niagara Falls in August. Once we come back, I will have tons of info to share with everyone for 2018. I really want the Las Vegas 2017 reunion to happen before we focus on 2018, anyway...

got my salad all fixed up for the next few days. Gonna eat well! Love salad but i hate fixing it so I make a big one for several days!

ready to start work in a few...only a 2 day work week but its still a monday...lol

[Soft*Silver]

I had to hard clean today. I have spent so much time playing with my grand daughter that I completely neglected the house. I am slap wore out.

I also placed an add for a housecleaning helper. And hired one. I decided I am at a point where bending, squatting, kneeling hurt way too much and that someone else can dust the table legs and clean the woodwork. I can do most of the work, but some things I now need help with.

I should be shocked that I am older and need help. Instead I am giggling and happier than hell that I finally can justify it! LOL

[Gemme]

Today? Not much, honestly. I woke up, made the bed and breakfast and am eating breakfast. Nothing special there. I'll be working all day so there's that. I would like to get some more artwork up on the walls after work today. Let's see if that happens.

Today.....the weather was so unbelievably gorgeous :stillheart:

So...... I decided to go out and enjoy the loveliness of the afternoon..... I shopped for cards, post cards, and even stopped at my favorite neighborhood McMenamin bar & grill. I sat outside and dined on a lovely Caesar salad with house dressing and grilled chicken breast. *yuuummmm* I even had a glass of house made Lemonade. Very delicious.

I'm finally home now.... and ....just enjoying the late evening sun as it sinks into the west..... last night, we had such a gorgeous pink sunset!

Here's to pink sunsets, good food, shopping....and joy. :cheer:

I'm finally home now.... and ....just enjoying the late evening sun as it sinks into the west..... last night, we had such a gorgeous pink sunset!

Here's to pink sunsets, good food, shopping....and joy. :cheer:

My day began early with two doctor appointment's.....
The I bought some sugar free candy. Not sure if I will like the new candy, but I bought it because half of the proceeds go toward and fund diabetes research. It was a good buy too. The downside is that the store won't be carrying this candy anymore. The upside? I bought every package in stock. :blush:

[Chained Daisy]

I`ve deep cleaned my fridge, thrown a lot of unused, half used, never going to use again things out and reorganised it. If it gets any more exciting round here I`ll have to go and have a lie down.

I got more productive as the day progressed. I got my oil topped off and all the fluids and tire pressure checked. I got a quote for framing some art and bought a few craft things. I used a gift certificate to Marshall's. I picked up bank stuff for work and made arrangements to get my car looked at tomorrow morning for my inspection. I also picked up a ginormous burrito from Moe's. My honey and I Skyped again, I ate dinner and We discussed future plans, the joys of Etsy and disagreed about important dates. I'm pretty sure I'm right, though.

[FireSignFemme]

Spent most of the day on the phone dealing with hospital mistakes. Fortunately theirs not mine, otherwise it would have taken a long time to get another appointment. I had to book in March to be seen the second week in September last time and I just couldn't bear waiting another 6+ months more before learning whether or not I can go back to work. It's too the point that I just want to know, even if the answer is no because whatever the the case it would have to be better than the frustration of not knowing. Anyhow aside from the time spent dealing with that, I haven't done much else today. I spoke with MysticOceansFL earlier, she's all provisioned, safe. I'm almost afraid to watch the news for fear of what damage Irma might have wrought while I was away, but better to know than avoid it so that's what I'm off to do now.

[Gayandgray]

Did lotsa deep cleaning, praying, laundry washed and hung out on line, more praying, took care of spouse, cleaned & medicated one of the dog's ears that has a yeast infection in it, getting ready to run in town to Wally World for a few things.:hangloose:

Well done, and go mom!

Today, let's see....

I moved someone new into my housing program early this morning and was so glad to do so because she has been hard working and homeless for quite some time.
I did normal work things like intakes and case managing and rent managements.
I played with my work baby and smiled a lot while doing so.
I put together a community meal for the women in my program and had a community meeting after the meal to get ready for some big fall events.
Came home, did animal care routine, and then sipped a much needed glass of wine while writing this post.

[Chad]

Lordy, are you crazy man?

Nope, not crazy just determined to stay independent and active. :)

[Chad]

I worked 25 hours in two days......what day is this?
