Awake at 9am. Texted boss about an issue at work. Laid back down but didn't sleep for another half an hour or so. Finally drug myself up and grabbed some grub. Since then, Ebon and I have watched Open Season II, I've forced him to hammer in a few nails on a small bookcase and also helped me move said bookcase around until I was fairly happy with its location. I have moved some light furniture around, dusted most of the living room, cleaned up our 'game area', gathered up the recycling, I'm on the third load of laundry now, I've spot vacuumed, and now I'm taking a break.

Later, I shall go through about 10 tubs/boxes of clothes and miscellaneous to either find homes for the stuff or put it in the donate bag I started today.

Since my shoulders ache from yesterday's work, I'm not sure if there's going to be anything more than that done today, although there is plenty more that needs to be done around here.

Sunday, Part Two (cuz I'm not fancy like Jo):

I have linens in the linen closet now, versus in a tub in the storage room! I also have a suitcase and a tub full of winter clothes that have been sorted and stuffed waaaay back in the closet. I ate the delish dinner that Ebon and I concocted together but he cooked. I went through ALL of my jeans, camisoles, underthings, tanks, shorts, pajamas, and exercise bottoms and sorted them into keep or donate and then found a home for the keepers. Ebon can testify, this was a BIG deal. Our bed was fully covered and stacked yay high with each type of clothing.

<--clotheshorse

I pretty much pulled everything (boxes and tubs) out of the storage room that wasn't empty and now all of the Christmas stuff is together and I have a couple of empty tubs to put the stuff that I will sort out today in, since the linens and whatnot they held now have an appropriate home. A big ole bag of garbage and another of recycling was taken out. I popped online right before bed too.

Now, for today:

I pulled the last load of laundry out of the dryer and fluffed and folded it. I've eaten four poptarts and drunk half a glass of skim milk. I've played on here for a while and put away a load of dishes in the dishwasher (it was run before bed). That's pretty good, I think, since it took me the better part of an hour to get myself out of bed once Ebon's alarm went off. Too much work and not enough sleep do not make for a happy Gemme.

Later today, I will finish the sorting of the clothes and rehang what's been pulled out for the sorting and donating process as well as going through the paperwork I've accumulated for the past few months and shred it. I think Ebon and I will also pop in HEB for a short list of stuff. The bathroom still needs to be scrubbed good and the floors swept, mopped and vacuumed.

I'm so glad to have Wednesday and Thursday off, since THIS weekend hasn't been a weekend at all. It's been quite the opposite of what weekends are supposed to be about.

If you have linens in the linen closet, then you're fancy

My Saturday was awesome and weekend-y, but Sunday pretty much sucked. Productive, but painful and icky and generally not one I would want a repeat of.

Today...
I have managed to get out of bed, get dressed, make breakfast for the kiddo, pack lunches for kiddo and Scoote, take kiddo to school....

...and, more importantly, I have managed to not go off at my boss (even though she's making my life much more difficult at a time when I really can't deal)...and not to shut down my work computer, say screw it, and go back to bed.

Clearly, I don't function well on stress and no sleep.

I'm with you. Those are not a good combination to exist on.

Hey, you made it to work! Bonus for you. I'm not doing that. I haven't even gotten dressed yet. The fact that my hair's in a ponytail is an accomplishment (sore shoulders).

Oh, yeeeeaaaahhh. I AM fancy!

Blade · 03-27-2011, 03:25 PM

Well I got out of bed.....does that count?

Went out for breakfast
Went by the Harley shop
Picked up some groceries
Washed dried 2 loads of clothes
Washed dishes so I can dirty them back up and wash them again in a little while after the game.
Fed the dogs
Not much just sort of piddled around today.
Dreary day cool and raining...sorta a laid back day.

BoDy*ShOt · 03-27-2011, 03:31 PM

painted my toe nails a super sexy, rich, chocolate brown....

Chancie · 03-27-2011, 04:21 PM

I have one last project to finish for my last course for grad school.

I worked on the project for several hours yesterday and for several hours today.

I do have to take a few more grad classes in math for my professional license, but

Little by little, I am chipping away at what I want to get done and what I need to get done.

And, I said I wanted to start a viable robotics program this year, and I did.

Arwen · 03-27-2011, 04:48 PM

I accomplished:

Waking up (hey, you gotta count this...really)
Tarotscopes
Lunch with family
Borders (wow. Sad but what a sale!)
Lowes (who knew organic dirt could STINK that much and that you could see so many people with dogs there)
PetSmart (speaking of dogs, I saw people I know)

Did not get to the grocery store though. Even with comfy shoes, my feet hurt.

Soft*Silver · 03-27-2011, 06:27 PM

I died my hair purple today! So I am ready to go to Cleveland Clinic if need be after the Cat Scan!
