Accomplish
I drove 3.5 hours to the coast to attend a 2 hour meeting and then drove 3.5 hours back home. Now I am making spaghetti sauce and doing laundry.
|
I accomplished 7 hours of sleep in one night....I haven't done that in some time.
I'm a very well rested girl.... |
Work reports
I finally put in 4 over due reports at work today ...I procrastinated with them for long enough. For my efforts, I'm sitting here eating a tub of honey, caramel and macadamia ice cream.
|
I have managed not to yell at my sister because I know she's hurting. Even though I was attending a training course for work and she won't stop calling/texting.
|
Accomplished
Yesterday, I drove four hours to and from a meeting and site visit which ended up to be a fifteen hour day. This work week has consumed sixty five hours of my life.
TGIF! |
Accomplished
Christmas shopping done,
Party shopping done, Recycling at the recycling center, Dinner done, Time to relax! :wine: |
I accomplished practically nothing today except enjoying some R And R. Tomorrow will be a day from hell but, for right now, I am happy.
|
Yesterday: I made a homemade chocolate cake out of things I had on hand (Fireball whiskey, Swiss Miss semi-sweet dark chocolate cocoa mix, eggs, pancake mix, cream, etc). It's gone now, completely devoured, but it was truly yummy. :)
Today (Sunday, Sunday :stillheart: ): I pulled a roast out of the freezer. So tonight for supper, my son and I are having roast beef and roasted potatoes. Will simply be a treat to have a lovely supper that wasn't too hard to slave over. Tomorrow : Grocery shopping after a long day at work; but most likely my son and I will dine on leftovers from today. |
Not a darn thing TODAY but tomorrow I shall be busier than a one arm paper hanger!
|
I got up early and made two loaves of banana bread one with walnuts
About to start on cupcakes one batch of yellow and one batch orange cream both with chocolate frosting |
Not nearly what I had intended to thats for sure. Washed dried and folded 2 loads of clothes fixed breakfast and cleaned up the dishes, boiled and peeled 18 eggs, fed all the critters and all before 8am. I thought I was on a roll! I knew I was going to have to go to town for milk at some point.
Went to town around 11, spent a while in Wally World. OMG the parking lot was crazy both getting in and out. No trouble finding the things I needed. Strange there was already Valentine stuff out where the Christmas stuff was last Friday. Got back home began putting up groceries. While putting the milk in the fridge a catastrophic event happened. A whole quart of vanilla creamer fell out on the floor, busted the plastic and creamer spilled out in the floor, under the fridge and on my boots. Took a while to clean that sticky mess. Wrapped gifts, and was pissed I couldn't find 2 of the gifts I bought for the baby. Loaded up went to Moms for a few hours. Back home fixed supper and did dishes, put another load of clothes in to wash. Found baby gifts, fixing to finish wrapping gifts. Before bed I will make sweet tater pies, a chocolate pie, and get a shower. |
I decided that I need a better schedule so that I am able to get everything done that I'd like. So, I worked on writing out a simple schedule this morning while I drank my coffee. Then I did 2 loads of laundry, and folded a load of towels I had washed & dried yesterday. I ironed two button downs, & studied for a couple of hours. Later on, I dismantled my gravity water filter, cleaned and sanitized it, then put a new filter in and put it all back together.
|
This morning early I woke up and took a friend to the medical center for their outpatient surgery. It went very quickly, and I spent an hour in the waiting room watching Property Brothers. I brought my friend back to my house to sleep off the anesthesia, and also because he wasn't sure if he might need some help for the next day or two. It soon started pouring down rain, and we both took naps until 6pm. So there was most of my day blown. I did, however, manage to begin cleaning out the freezer this evening, and I made chili and cornbread for dinner.
|
I got up and went to work, even though I had trouble sleeping the night before.
I was super productive at work though! I got my proposal requests in for multiple major fraud conferences that are coming up this year. Now I have to wait and see if they are approved, there is one in particular that I am extremely eager to attend. |
Lost another pound. Maybe I'll start exercising today.
Maybe not. :bow: |
I'm about halfway through a to-do list that keeps growing. But I keep crossing things off too. I did an old trick where when I went to make my list up I started with three things I had already done today so I could start off with crossing things off right away :) Have filled out a dozen forms that needed filling out. Have sent about 25 emails that needed mailing. Have replied to about 25 more emails that needed replying. Delivered some items that needed delivering. Made some appointments that needed making. Cancelled some appointments that needed cancelling. I need to take my daughter out for shoe shopping and I really don't want to...

Been a slow day so far...
Fueled up my truck.
Picked up some stuff for the fur gang. Went to the grocery store (oh the joy!) While at the grocery store, I managed to successfully keep my mouth shut after I turned around and ran smack dab into the shopping cart of the woman behind me in line, who all but had her cart up my ass, then had the audacity to look at me like I was a moron for not knowing she was thisclose to me. I'm pretty sure my cocked eyebrow and facial expression were far more effective than any words I could have spoken. Pulled over on my way home and had the six of an officer on a traffic stop. Didn't realize that the officer was a friend of mine until I got a "Thanks for having my back. Made me smile when I saw your truck sitting back there." text, a few minutes later. As public servants we're chosen family. Nobody fights alone, regardless of which badge we wear. Once home, I put groceries away then went for a short run with my K-9 kiddo, who, for reasons unknown, has the attention span of a gnat, today. Next stop: steam cleaning my tile floors, finishing laundry, and deciding what's for dinner. Got any suggestions? |
Accomplished
I got up at 4:00 am picked up my truck rental and coworkers an hour away. Drove 4 hours to the coast then got on a boat for 3 hours. Ate lunch then drove 4 hours back to the office and another hour home.
Long day and I am exhausted. |
What a messy day!
I spent most of the day re-doing the chicken coop. It's really amazing how dirty the coop gets. It's mainly due to the rooster, he's a very messy guy and a really big pain. I fixed up the hen boxes, replaced the sand for warmth, weather proofed the run to keep the girls warm and now I'm hoping for more eggs.
|
Got plates on my car....only took a month and a half!!!
Unfroze my pipes by putting a little heater under the house... House work in my own house. That's about it....but I feel accomplished! |
Lots of things. And I have a lot more to go. Day is only half over...
|

Not much seeing as how it's not even 8am. I got up, fed the baby, medicated the baby, am feeding myself and I went to the bathroom somewhere in the middle of that.
Yesterday was pretty productive, though. I worked,and was excessively productive there, washed two loads of laundry, unloaded and reloaded the dishwasher, went through my mail, loved on and fed the furry one, cleaned his box, tidied up the place, journaled, watched YouTube videos, ate candy and came up with a creative solution to a painting and design issue. |
Cooked breakfast and lunch for my spouse, took dog to vet, gave spouse her shower, ran electric broom over all the floors, peeled potatoes, cooked a chicken, oh and I called the SPCA and left a message with the lady in charge of volunteering, filled bird feeders, put up suet cakes out in the woods on our property for the woodpeckers. Now I'm just relaxing for the rest of the day:cigar2:

Scheduled the carpet cleaner and locksmith. And picked out paint colors.

Seeing as how I've only been up an hour, not much. I made the bed, fed and got fresh water for the :cat:, medicated the :cat: and washed the accoutrements from it, fixed my breakfast and am eating it now, I hopped on the scale and was happy to see a slight drop from the last time, played online, I turned up the heat and went to the bathroom (not in that order).

so far (2.5 hours in)...
pushed the wife out of bed because her alarm didn't go off, made her breakfast, lunch, and coffee so she could get out the door on time. Fed a teenager and got her to drivers-ed on time for once this week. Fed another teen and got him to school on time. Cleaned the kitchen, started the laundry. Now I'm here finishing my own breakfast and getting mentally ready for a busy work day. :tea: |
Accomplished
Today was another 13 hour day to attend a ceremony for one of my completed projects. The twist was that I invited colleagues from contracting and finance to see the finished project and attend the ceremony.
I think they didn't realize how much driving is involved with these site visits. We stopped for a nice southern style lunch at a place that has a cobbler bar, yummy! |
I sold my parent's old couch, my table and chairs is pending sale, moved furniture around in the house and bought my girlfriend some of her Valentine's Day gift!
