Good afternoon everyone! Seashell! So glad to see you posting ! Nonchalant, sorry you're feeling down and hope that you can start to pick your mood back up. I just got home from my sister's house, and am eating lunch. I'm so happy that's over with for another few weeks--I'm starting to dread going out there because the trip is starting to stress me out, and it takes up so much of the day. But she was glad to see me and her dog was ecstatic to see me, so at least I feel I did them some good by going out there. I'm just about finished eating lunch and will catch up on some tv news. I have to go out for a walk in a couple of hours, but I'm going to try to get something done after I finish eating. Diane

Hi everyone It is a sunny day here and very cold. But loving the sun!! I am feeling a bit better. Dd was a big help and prepared lunch and cleaned it up I have done a few dishes. Folded and put away laundry. Load in dryer. I reclaimed the dining room table and it looks so much better Started working to prep for the big consignment sale for children's clothing. Went through one bin. It makes me sad and a little anxious to part w dd baby and younger clothes. I sort for clothes to sell or to give to relatives or to donate and some not ready to part with. Consigning helps me part w things because I cam use the money. Dd was a well dressed child so I have good brands that should sell. Ah but they are so cute! Do msny memories. Right now I have a full load in washer to ready clothes for sale to get rid if any stains. This is a messy process w bins and stacks of clothes on the couch! Lots of work too as I have to decide upon a price and data enter and print and cut and pin tags and hang all clothes! But can make $$$. It is a good way motivate me to part w these sweet clothes. For the Lenten challenge I am focusing on my clothes and accessories. It is helping me part w good clothes that I am not wearing that someone else could. Doing it as a way to honor lent as a Christian is helping me. Sometimes I feel overwhelmed at all there is to do to maintain and to deal w the clutter. To do Pick up dd Go to church Empty all trash cans Bring trash and recycling to curb Fold and put away two loads of clothes Spend one hour on my taxes Cook dinner Do dishes

more messy than I was for a long time. Well puppybox, then you're in the right place to fix that! Are you still dog walking? Okay--I'm back from my walk. The last week was busy with extra jobs, an unexpected, long shopping trip, and going to my sister's, so tomorrow will feel like a mini-vacation. I only have mid-day work. Tuesday will be a weird day because I have to go to my senior client's early to help her get the friendly stray into the car so he can finally go for his neutering. I'm scheduled off for the PM but will probably have to go and bring the cat back into the house when he comes home, so I might as well do the dog walk that night also. Then Wednesday I only have mid-day work again. So I'm going to try to plan ahead what I want to get done on Monday and Wednesday. I feel like I'm really falling behind and am kind of stuck on some goals, so this is a good time to reevaluate. Especially since the early spring challenge started 5 days ago and I still haven't figured out what I want to do for it. Update planner Cat feeding Put trip bags away Clean out wallet Diane

Ooh, I like your CD project Pamela! Are you going to get rid of the CDs? No, I'll keep them. The only reason I'm doing this is because the CD player I bought for my car turned out to be a Bluetooth/USB player instead. Although, I could always take those CDs that I ripped to the local resell shop. I'd just be afraid something would happen to my computer and the flash drive, erasing all the music.
