CanDo, that's nice about your friend - getting the son up & off to school. And that she came by with a thankyou. Maybe a bit overboard with the $50 gift certificate, but a very nice gesture. Hopefully she was simply re-gifting and she didn't actually go out and spend the $50. Djollydjolan, that's precious about the little boys and your mum's memorial bench. So very sweet. I know you miss her immeasurably. It will get better. True, you will always miss her, but the pain will subside with time. Lessismore, is today moving day? Hope all goes well for you. eagle's Saturday
 awoke at 5:21 this morning: morning wake-up routine done
put on the coffee
belly dance
shred some papers
weights: 20 minutes
seated twists: 200
Yoga
laundry in dryer
load of laundry started in washer
cooked steel cut oats, groats & quinoa
put away clean dishes
breakfast & dishes
vitamins & apple
took a break from restaurant
apply base coat of paint to a few ornaments (club project) - until I broke the spongy painting tool - very discouraging in the midst of the project
found another spongy painting tool to continue ornament painting project, but very little progress made - at least I got started, though, so that's good
call friend - left a message
called brother, but his phone number was disconnected (probably because he moved - need to get his new number)
laundry: one more load to dryer
 dust something
throw something away - 2 small bags trash & garbage
donate something
tidy a room - living room
15 minutes in home office
mopped up spilled coffee
emptied cotton bag (carry-all I use for carrying things back and forth to work) because coffee got all over it, too - luckily the papers, etc. were fine
continued paper reduction project at work - made a lot of progress
went to sleep fairly early for a Saturday night - thought I'd stay up late, but didn't

Eagle-- No, I don't think she re-gifted those. I can't believe she gave that much & really I would have rather not gotten anything. This is part of what she wrote "...today was above and beyond the call of duty to a friend. I appreciate your help more than you will ever know!" She is a single parent & is struggling to keep her job due to absentiism due to her son. He is a wonderful kid but with a few problems... I really do like him & thiink he is depressed, etc. I was glad that I got him to have his ADD med & got him to eat something healthy. My thanks was truly just the fact that he went to school, ate something healthy, and took the med. Yes, it took quick thinkinig & observations, etc. on my part, but he did end up cooperating.
Tadas Today:
1)woke up as scheduled at 5am, but with bad headache
2)showered2shoes
