What did you accomplish today?

Sweet Bliss · 08-21-2013, 08:59 PM

Finished two more sections of insulation on ceiling.
Fed 7 pets twice
cleaned two litter boxes
Cut down errant bushy stuff around azalea tree, filled huge box with trimmings, dragged to street for pick up
took trash to road, took household trash to bin
Put recycling in bin,
cleaned one of several cabinets under counter, sprayed, pulled out aluminum pans to recycle.
Took trash I gathered from backyard to road for pickup, and unused drainage tubes.
filled holes made by broken gutter during rain storm, placed planters over roots sticking out of the ground so I won't trip on them again
cooked breakfast for roomie, bacon, omelette with cheese
cleaned up mess from insulation
Did three loads of laundry
Painted giant basket white for new pet bed
Fixed plant stand, was falling apart
cut fabric to make new skirt

See, there is no butch at this residence. Just a femme. This femme. Who wants some respect. Appreciation. A night out to dance. Breakfast out on Sunday. Coffee on the beach at sunrise. Fresh flowers. Gift card for Joanne's maybe.

Am tired and sore, I want to soak in a hot tub of bubbles and lavender. A glass of Sangria. A foot massage ......

I worked with my HR people at my employment and was granted a weeks delay for my termination (yeah for another week of insurance!).

I was able to get some final goodbyes taken care of with some of my coworkers over the phone, that's an emotional deal I wasn't expecting.

I got in touch with an old friend who offered to help me get through some of the processes for disability, I'm very thankful for that because it seems very daunting, I have no clue how people manage it.

I spent some quality time with my wife that did not have to involve discussions or bills or what we had to get done or dealing with medical crap. We did something for ourselves that included ice cream and a movie.

Spent an 8 hour work shift talking with friends on here and via text, buying airline tickets, and doing all my initial discussion posts for my classes on-line.. Can not move further until I get my books now, and waiting on school for that!

Why yes, I sit at a desk overnight with nothing else to do

Get paid to do other stuff that needs to be done? Sure, why not!

I got out of bed... eventhough I didn't have to...
I cooked delicious food for myself... out of an almost empty fridge...
I'm even doing the laundry!
wow....

actually reflecting on yesterday, a day in the life of me...

1 12 hour shift. This is one of the slowest months for my type of business so it's a struggle to keep busy and make my day go by.
Wore denim to work, due to the fact it's back to school and we are trying to push denim. Mind you it's still very hot here and wearing long pants is just miserable.
However, I'm a team player and will do what ever it takes to make $$$!
Had a conversation with a customer who recently took 3 grand kids to college and was explaining her adventure shopping for dorm stuff, just days before classes actually started. Now that was interesting, because I've never had to do that. Hmmm, things in life I don't see. I get to hear about it thru others

Another fun and heartwarming conversation with 5 little girls who came in together with, maybe their guardians? They were all foster kids. I bent over and got to their level and chatted about the one who had missing front teeth, and then about the tooth fairy and how she comes into the house. How excited they were to start school. Who was their favorite princess? I could talk with kids all day long. And it helps to keep them distracted so their parents can shop! ( how I've learned that trick!)

Rearranged 75% of the store. Oh, how I love to move things, it's the interior decorator in me. And the fact that change is a good thing for many reasons

Hung 200 new tops. And you know when you do that, you have to try on and ogle. Look at some things and think, " what were they thinking? " UGLY! A few pairs of shoes got slipped on as well.

Working on promoting and train a part timer to my asst manager. Who, received flowers on her car. To be 18 again, and be giddy. It was fun to watch her emotions work. Lol, my staff keeps me young!

Finally, the day was over and came home to watch my recorded episode of Big Brother , along with a conversation with a friend about it.
