Thanks hollyhock I decided that every Sunday morning I'll fill the crock-pot, since I have to work all day, but DH is home. That way I can come home to a nice aroma, and a prepared dinner - and I don't have to worry about it being plugged in while I'm gone, it's a pretty old one. I hope you're having a great day unpacking in your beautiful new apartment! I need to rush off to work now...blah. See you later! ETA: sorry, hollyhock - just saw your last post and you're working today too. Aww, and we have such better things to do at home, eh? BLAH for the both of us, ha. Have a terrific shift today!

I've changed the sheets on my bed - and sprayed them with my lilac linen spray! (For those who don't follow my blog, I moved Monday. My plan was to have ds take my bed apart at old house Sun., and I'd wash up the sheets that PM, sleep on the couch, and have clean sheets to put on my bed Mon. What actually happened was that ds took my bed apart and brought all of the old linen to new apt. Sunday (where I have to pay to use washer in a laundry room). On Mon he set up the bed in the new place, and without asking ddil made up my bed - with the dirty sheets! So now I finally have clean sheets on my bed - once the bed was made up after moving in, it wasn't as much of a priority as other things.) Then I had my bath. Then moved my too dry plants (geraniums from my garden that I moved with me) to the bathtub and gave them all a good watering!
Now I will work on putting away dishes, and cleaning up the kitchen, then making a pre-work big brunch.

I hated moving things around, yesterday, but it was necessary as the Cleaning Service cannot come next week & I needed to get the Office cleaned as my brother will be sleeping in there. The cleaning service did a great job, yesterday. I will be having them a couple more times... but not next week. DS arrives in town sometime today. Folded/hung load of laundry Put away that load Moved load from washer to dryer Put another load in washer Researched luggage/carry on info for my parent's plane flights. med to Puppy fed dogs moved another load to dryer folded/hung another load of laundry put that load away Put another load in washer Email sent to both parents & my brother re: luggage Tried to go ahead and pay for my Parent's luggage, but found out cannot do at this time. Aarrgghh! CD

if I think about all the bags of trash that have gone out of this house - I should either get a bill or a plaque from the local dump. A ton has gone to recycle too, good will, and other donations.
I still have a ways to go. I need to keep cleaning off the top of items now. I still remember someone talking about ghost squalor. I have that too. I can still see the mounds of stuff with the little goat paths where you walked on items with stuff piled up on either side of the goat path.

Hello everyone, so much good work going on here.
I am going to start with the dishes. Then I am going to start work on the bedroom midden - I will try and sort some of the pile of clothes, make some decisions. Usually I just end up shifting the piles and nothing changes.

The story about the plaque or a bill really made me laugh TML! Thanks for that. My apt complex allows us to take out any/ all trash anytime.....I need to make more use of it. since the past 24 hours 5 regular bags plus boxes have gone out. I wanted to go to the thrift store and look around for clothes this week. I have been so busy I didn't get there. I do have more than enough in my wardrobe. Why would I need more than 5 days supply of clothes when I do laundry 3+ times a week. Doesn't make sense to waste time looking at more clothes really. Maybe I could find something to donate rather than bring something else in. I did pay 2 months of electric and 2 months of internet/ phone so I should be good for a while. Dh is back at cooking/baking....yay. He gets depressed and will not see a Dr for meds. So we have ups and downs. This week he has baked chicken and blue berry muffins. It all helps out. And he feels happier.

busy busy day!
Very busy morning at church with our church dinner after. Got stuck washing dishes for over a hundred and twenty people. Then I had to run errands for an event next Sunday. I am pooped!
I came home did a load of laundry, I can't do anymore. The sink is backing up in the basement and I can't flood it.I attacked the bathroom and got layers and layers of scum scrubbed off the tub and shower. Not perfect but a lot better.
Worked on the upstairs hallway. Got all the trash and recyclables out. Slowly getting there.
So tired...so I crawled in bed. Will work more tomorrow.
