________________________________________________ Razy - Congrats on the final results! Consistent effort sees success. Well done! Lessismore - I see you have a number of things not only crossed off your list, you've got a large number you are in the middle of working on. Keep going, Less! You are blowing over your goals like a hurricane these days. (Hope you find your wallet soon.) AnnieOkie - Like your new haircut? I've been thinking of doing something different to mine, just for a change. You may have just inspired me to actually go DO it. Sapphire - Good job getting the laundry done and making the beds! (To be honest, I'm still smiling over the news of your engagement. Hurray!) Cando - Wow. You are really going to town on your paperwork! I need to tackle a few more insurance bits SOON! Thanks for the inspirational kick. ________________________________________________

Razy, congratulations on the grades. Lessismore, cute avatar. Yesterday I was not as ambitious as my list. I left more undone than done. To start, I dropped a gallon bottle of ketchup on the asphalt as I was entering the restaurant and it broke. Luckily it was a plastic bottle, but the clean up took quite some time and a lot of walking back & forth to the water faucet. That's how my day started after I left home. So today, I have a lot of things from yesterday's list still to do. I think I'll go straight to son's house after the chiropractor, just to set the tone and get some things done early. eagle's Wednesday morning wake-up routine divvied up vitamins into 8 bottles took vitamins, ate apple Yoga 100 seated twists on stability ball put away some clean dishes washed two dishes tidied a room shower, etc. chiropractor appt. ToDo at son's house: second cleaning of inside of freezer & check refrigerator for odors - odors still present, trying more deodorizor overnight sweep & mop basement floor get bathroom light to come on (son told me the trick) mop basement floor - this was more work than I anticipated, but I used a dishwashing soap, and it was extremely effective at removing all the dried blackened stuff that had stuck to the floor from the last flooding clean basement bathroom - although I think it needs a bit more scrubbing behind the toilet (& the toilet bowl needs scrubbing, to) wear leather gloves to work in yard - pull weeds, attend to potted plants (hopefully the 21 degree weather today has not already cracked the few clay pots) bougth some crystals to clear the drain in the basement shower, but the procedure did not produce the outcome I wanted - I may need to get a plumber in to snake out the drain (bummer) cousin contractor came over to measure window for repair - I called son & he authorized the repair & cost estimate (I should have mentioned the drain at this time, but did not think of it.)Also done: more paper reduction project at work in my office printed reports necessary to figure tax forms needed (one deadline for submission is the 20th, so this has been looming) - I'll have to finish up the form later, but at least I did the prep (right before the end of the workday) I began this post early in the morning on Wednesday, then left it open all day, never getting back to it to post until this morning (Thursday). So here it is. CanDo, I am amazed you could get so much done when I know you haven't been feeling well. Sapphire, it's great that you can bring your laptop (?) with you to the launderette. That's a great idea. AnnieOkie, how's your haircut? Hope it is just how you like it. Celeste, I am sorry your dad is ill. I hope your immune system is able to ward it off.
