What did you accomplish today?

Gemme · 05-25-2011, 08:57 PM

Washed sheets and made bed, washed a load of my clothes and put away a load of mine and two loads of Ebon's clothes that we'd been too lazy to put away earlier, I rearranged the kitchen counter and cleaned it good, loaded and ran dishwasher and washed a sinkful of non-dishwasher safe stuff, I made brunch and dinner for myself, tidied up the living room and brought the broom and dustpad in the bathroom to sweep it but haven't quite made it back in there for that yet. I played online and listend to my MP3 player for a while and watched a bit of the telly too.

Laerkin I adopted a new kitty today from the animal shelter. Well, he's an eleven year old boy.

I took him straight to our vet and got a wellness exam, shots, etc done.

I went out to the store and bought new cat stuff for him, litter box, food, scooper, toy

I stopped and bought my dinner

Earlier today I went to work

and now I'm ready for bed after a long busy day.

Kätzchen · 05-28-2011, 11:20 AM

Well,

I took a vacation from accomplishments this past week or so
because it was enough to just wake up and face another day.

And that's what I'm doing today:
facing the day with a beautiful smile in my heart
and attending to the present moment of right now.

We've had some really wicked stormy weather lately
and today, amazingly, it's gorgeous outside
(minus the heavenly veil of pearly clouds).

Wryly · 05-28-2011, 02:07 PM

Up extremely early for commute to freelance job

After observing for 1/2 hr I decided to jump in and actually do the job. A few minor mistakes but I think I did pretty well!

Back home in time to catch UEFA Champions League match between Barcelona and ManU - - - although I did take a teeny, tiny nap.

Mister Bent · 05-28-2011, 02:09 PM

I powered up.

Queerasfck · 05-28-2011, 02:13 PM

A whole lotta nada.

We went to garage sale. Fail. Nothing good.

I looked through a bunch of my old clothes to see if I could find a pair a shorts I've been missing since we moved. Fail.

Also tried to take a nap. Fail.

Tried to get some _______. Fail. (will try again later!)

JustJo · 05-28-2011, 02:12 PM

Saturday...

made coffee.....plus toast and cheese for me
made tea...plus leftover banana cake for Rooster
showered
headed out to yard sales with Scoote
did maybe 4 garage sales, plus a trip to our favortie antique/almost antique store
bought lots of fun stuff
Scoote and I headed to Friendly's for lunch
stopped at Panera to pick up a smoothie and a sandwich for Rooster, plus a loaf of asiago cheese bread for toasting later
now relaxing....while my poor sweetie is headed off to work

Nina · 05-28-2011, 02:21 PM

I completed today's self-assigned component of the application process:

I choose pictures
burned them onto a disk, all. by. myself.
went to office depot and got two of each one printed out onto heavy stock paper...

I may whittle the choices down a bit today, OR, I may continue to pat myself on the back for having done the little I got done and do more tomorrow...

it's all Okay since the applications are due by the 3rd...and My due date to send them is first thing tuesday morning, which I'll do...

I also made up more bags of 2 and 3 point snacks...

I did make a batch of quiona this morning with my new flrc...I didn't do it very well, so I'll try again...this time I will soak it for an hour or more to get rid of the bitter taste (I let it soak half and hour or so), and cook it with a bit less water...still, for me, it was an accomplishment--the first step to success....

and...I was kind to myself and didn't judge anything I did, or didn't do, with an eye to maximum negativity...(yeah, I know that was kind of baby-woo-woo---happens to the best of us hard-nosed cynics!!)

OH I also got some more Hello Kitty stuff for the raffle tote bag I'm gonna make...and all the stuff is at my fair market price, half off or better!

05-28-2011, 04:33 PM

Nothing of import. Managed a really good bike ride though!

There's always tomorrow for more essay writing

Abigail Crabby · 05-30-2011, 10:05 AM

JustJo · 05-30-2011, 03:53 PM

threw on clothes and headed to the grocery store
listened carefully to a stranger who had something to say
put groceries away
baked 4 dozen cookies
made coffee...finally....ahhhhhhhhh
made tuna salad for a weird late breakfast with Rooster....tuna salad, crackers and green olives
sat with Scoote awhile before she had to go to her meeting
went swimming with Rooster for over an hour....splashed, got cannonballed over and had noodle boarding races
got a teeny bit too much sun
cleaned the pool and adjusted chemicals
called my mother....surgery will be tomorrow or Wednesday
ate half a bag of BBQ chips while watching too much TV
now cooking dinner....pork chops, mashed potatoes and carrots

Abigail Crabby · 05-30-2011, 04:12 PM

Got the lil bbq started when my daughter got called into work for a water emergency.

bbq'd the ribs and some corn on the cob

Took dinner over to her office as she had to wait for the plumber

Now just kicking back and enjoying peace and quiet and the clean kitchen

SmoothButch · 06-01-2011, 12:33 PM

Fed the baby boy this morning
went to work
gave the boy his ear drops
fed the birds & squirrels
filled the bird baths with fresh water outside
trimmed the tree branches
weed whacked in the back yard

next up, pulling out my clippers and cutting my hair, then hoping in the shower

Wryly · 06-01-2011, 02:18 PM

I got my sister to buy me a chocolate ice cream cone!
And some groceries for dinner.
And then some Pepsi for me.

But I had to carry it all upstairs.

And we did go to the lake - I did get some nice pics. Hopefully I will remember to post one later!
