swept the kitchen, cleaned my bathroom, did laundry, updated my resume for an internal position at work...just need to mow the front yard but it is so freakin hot outside...thank goodness for my son who mowed the back and side yard already :)
|
An extended uke practice session. Played As Time Goes By so many times I lost count. Interspersed a handful of other songs I'm currently knocking-into-shape and/or polishing throughout to keep it interesting and I had a rare ole time.
Ukein' brings me so much joy. |
I'm working on my final paper, which always causes ridiculous amounts of stress (I get to do this every 8 weeks...yay me!). I am somewhat proud of myself though - I am almost finished, and I'm 28 hours away from the deadline. That almost NEVER happens! :)
|
Worked an 11 hour shift today. That was plenty, thanks
|
I worked 5 hours of overtime.. Then I came home and worked on cleaning up the livingroom, diningroom and vacuumed the apartment.. time to relax
|
Well... could someone help with a bicycle issue? Can't locate local source of chain cleaner or lube ... Omg... my kindle changed lube into "puberty " Bwahhahaha! !!!
Sorry... lol... anyhoo, can someone recommend a decent substitute? ?:blink: I have olive, sunflower oil. Coconut oil. Thought I had navel jelly but used it all on another project. Turpentine, vinegar, Dawn, oven cleaner .... have not worked on a bike for four decades. :jester: Ya I know, but I need the cardio exercise. I have already removed the fenders, cleaned, applied rust stop, and fresh coat of paint. Need to paint where I applied rust stop to frame. It's a girls bike, perfect height for me. :hangloose: There used to be a baby carrier on the back, BUT I took off the seat and will cut a wood platform to attach to the supports so I can put a pretty basket on the back. Gonna look so cute!! :cheer: I love fixing stuff. |
Accomplished today
I drove an hour and a half to work and worked 9 hours then drove an hour and a half home.
Make and eat dinner Make breakfast and lunch for tomorrow Feed and water the kitties and wildlife Laundry Dishes Clean the kitchen Rest if there is time go to bed |
I went to work.. I went to physical therapy... I came home.. thankfully I am in air conditioning now!! WOOHOOO Oh and I walked the dogs...
|
Did the ALS ice bucket challenge, cleaned up some of the barn and then went into town for some new underwear and jeans.
|
Did the work I set out to do.... hung out at pool form last days of summer pool fun and worked out. Feel good
|
Washed the net curtains and cleaned the windows inside and out. How much lighter is it in here now!? :blush:
Cleaned skirting boards, doors and other paintwork. Sorted through a pile of 'stuff' on the shelf above the telly. I found 5 gift cards. Defrosted the freezer. I put all the stuff into freezer bags then attacked the ice with a hair drier and a knife. The trick is not to stick the knife through anything metal because that leads to very frizzy hair. Not that I've done that. Just a guess :) Rehung the net curtains while still wet. Took a lovely relaxing bubble bath. Went out for a very delicious lunch! Delivered the packages left in my porch that were not for me :| Pegged out a load of washing. Mowed the front and back lawns. Weeded the driveway and flagged areas and swept up. Poured myself a Baileys over ice. *clink* |

Chain cleaner?...take it off and soak it in gas/petrol, scrub with an old toothbrush. Then put it back on and spray with silicone lubricant |
Its been a heart wrenching emotional day...but my diversion in between, I made pickles! Actually, I had started the pickles before everything happened. :)
|
Put my summer clothes into their pretty plastic boxes for storage in the attic.
Put said boxes into the attic right away! No sitting there just in case the weather picks up again. Until mid winter. :rolleyes: |
its so hot i had to break up the chore of mowing my smallish lawn into short intervals...last nite i did the back and side yards, this morning i did the front yard...inside chores the rest of the day :)
|

This is a multiple day post.
Been painting in the kitchen. Just doing the insides of the cupboards. Did the walls already. The outsides of cabinets will have to wait until I recover from this project. Five done. Five more to go. Then the drawers. Eek. Seven not counting the two hidden drawers and secret drawer in sink area. Didn't think it would take so long. Was a WE project in the beginning. But true to form she has bailed. Only pausing from candy crush long enough to complain about the mess. What a surprise you say? Not really. Same bs new day. Anyone interested in a Femme that can cook and remodel? No? Didn't think so. :| Let's see... do I care? Not really. I've hung up my pearls Gentlemen. Not pulling them out again. Feels like weepy Wednesday. Maybe some Katy Perry can fix that. :cheer: |
Accomplished today
I drove an hour and a half to work and worked 9 hours then drove an hour and a half home.

Passed on a little experience, strength and hope to a newcomer. Managed to keep the social skill intact :| |
Went to brunch, and soon to be headed to the train.

I did some cleaning around the house, and 3 loads of laundry. I dehydrated 8 trays of organic baby spinach and then made spinach powder from that for green smoothies. I also turned and flipped my mattress and put clean sheets on the bed, and cleaned all of the ceiling fans.
|
Well my neighbor Fred gave me two wooden umbrellas. They looked pretty rough so I removed the fabric, washed it, and painted the wooden umbrellas both bright white. Looking really sharp now. One of them is broken but an easy fix. Think I will put a set of solar Xmas lights on each umbrella. Would be sooooo cute!!
Found the mystery glass table tops. Put one in the macrame hanger ala 1969... looks so bohemian. As soon as I cool off I'll put the umbrellas back together. They are a very simple design. Maybe some day I will attempt to make one. Getting some smaller projects done today. Need a nap soon.:byebye: |
This morning I did a marathon phone conversation with my best friend, which I really needed. Later, I bought groceries then came home and watched 3 video lectures and took a quiz. This may be all that this day gets out of me.
