What did you accomplish today? - Page 90

bright_arrow · 07-20-2012, 07:09 PM

Bug foggered the front yard
Sprayed Round-Up on hella weeds
Letting it sit before I take dogs out so they do not step in it
Going to make chicken salad for dinner then finish putting up smoke/fire alarms
Will think about putting up other blinds in living room

I am wiped from work, and a bit grumpy to still not find out who got the promotion. Waiting for HR apparently - that delays it until Monday! We were supposed to know last Thursday.

bright_arrow · 07-26-2012, 10:38 PM

Worked in the front yard for almost two hours attempting to tame it down, swept and mopped kitchen / dining room / library, vacuumed upstairs and downstairs. Did one load of laundry, and completed album for my folks. In progress is album for my in-laws, pictures for my sister in-law, and remaining thank you cards. Put together package for Zombie basket, a package for a friend that has been feeling down in the dumps, and even did some more thank you cards!

Still need to pack for weekend

Hollylane · 07-26-2012, 10:40 PM

1 hour with Comcast Tech Support, 1 hour with Norton Tech Support...plus at least 20 minutes of hold time with each company...and you know what...I fixed the technical issue myself....

LeftWriteFemme · 07-26-2012, 11:30 PM

I escorted three bats out of the house tonight and didn't hurt or scare any of them.

1) Worked out

2) Talked to a poet I'd like to read in a series I'm co-curating

3) Talked to my Dad about a difficult subject, my Mom

4) Cannot share this one because I have to protect someone's privacy, but it gave me hope that the logistics of my breakup will be compassionate.

5) Finished a movie I started last night on You Tube.

6) Cleaned up the kitchen

7) Did the groundwork on getting honorariums for poets in the series I'm co-curating.

8) Watched last night's new episode of Episodes (on demand)

9) Am watching a movie I got from NetFlix, Beginners, and about man whose father comes out, at the age of 75

10) Found leads online in my apartment search.

And the day is young (-ish).

jac · 08-26-2012, 06:11 PM

What I accomplished today... (at work)

Me and my weekend sidekick work well together as a team and with the kids. We have been working on making Sundays a day of productivity so that the kids aren't just piled up on the furniture sleeping or watching movies all morning/day long. We have been working on a reward system (bribery in other words)... and what better way than food. LOL they are teens, however!

So anyway, during the week when we say productive time, there is no reward. It's just expected of them... but up until now, they were allowed to do whatever they wanted pretty much on the weekends. Within reason of course. Last week we started with cleaning the day room (sweeping, mopping, dusting). We had three takers and their reaward was a homemade apple pie that my sidekick fixed. Shall we say... the bragging from those three kids was great!!

So this week the productivity was to either fill out a job application online and show us or go out and pick one up and return it to us filled out in order to receive homemade banana-nut bread. Needless to say, we had seven takers!!

Now my sidekick and I both agree that we adults/staff should lead by example. We try to be just as productive in some way too. We certainly can't tell them to do something without being good role models right? So we took the corner where staff sits at two desks and tore it apart, cleaned, organized and rearranged... on top of our normal desk work and weekend chores of cooking, cleaning and laundering the bedding for all these kids.

Ha ha.... when we finished, and the kids were fed and rewarded we made a plate for the executive director and her secretary (who were working on grants on a Sunday) and ran it up to them. To top it off, ED's husband who is the director came down to pay a surprise visit and was thrilled with the progress of how my sidekick and I work together and are working this new insentive program for/with the kids. That is rewarding to us...

Next week who knows what the reward or the task will be but it's bound to be worth it all to see those kids movin' and groovin' with purpose!
