Good afternoon everyone, I had hoped to get back to work as soon as I got home and ate dinner but I was not only tired, I was freezing cold. I was warmly dressed while outside and the temperature in here is over 70 degrees, so I don't know why I couldn't get warm--I'm warmer now but still not totally comfortable. I'm going to have to get some work done though, tomorrow is a very busy day and I know I won't do anything then. I'm going to do an 8-minute timer today. 8 minutes on kitchen 8 minutes on DR Cat feeding Start load of laundry Diane

During the last couple of hours I've gotten calls from a client and from my sister, and I ate dinner. I also finished the load of laundry and changed a couple of minor clocks that I didn't move forward over the weekend. Now I think I need to get to bed soon because there will be more snow in the morning and I'll probably have to shovel again, even though tomorrow is a busy day for me.
Next:
Give everyone fresh water Restock drinks in fridge Check locks Scoop litter pans

Hi everyone Happy Monday! Our extreme weather continues ! Did not sleep that well last night. Awake from 2:30-4 and then up at 7 so we were running a but late today off to work and school. Did manage to make bed and pack lunches. Work was challenging. Grumpy boss today. A big deal meeting that did not go as well as I hoped. Lots to do. Busy time. Trying to keep the long view. This shall pass so no purpose in getting all worked up. All is well. At lunch went out to stock up on groceries Picked up dd After work. Cooked dinner and used leftovers. I love when I am frugal and make good use of leftovers. Dishes are soaking at the moment. I was going through my clothes to find Lenten challenge donations. It is getting harder. Right before the challenge started I had purged the easy stuff. And now ten days in it is getting harder to part w stuff. I don't have a huge stash of clothes but I definitely have things that I don't wear. Many if these items are attached to very positive memories. And are expensive to boot . I did find some things to donate. I do love challenge as a way to honor Lent. I am determined to do the 40 days if my clothing only. It is good for me and hopefully will bless someone else Well scooping litter awaits in my glam life : )

Good night, everypony!
I am exhausted, but can't sleep, so might as well try to get a few things done. Every little bit helps!
The exhibit was wonderful, really glad I saw it. Got the things I needed at REI and a strapless bra at Macy's. Was able to delegate errands helper couldn't do to my DF. So that wasn't wasted time figuring that out and writing then up.
sent a quick email to my sitter cause she hasn't heard from me--just so busy!
When I came home I had to start putting clothes I hadn't selected, away, because they were all over the bed. That helped with the visual clutter and solidified some decisions. I'm about 75% done with that phase. I have a huge stash of toiletries to break down.
In my halucinatory sleep deprived state I am still thinking about how to pack so that I only need to get into one suitcase for Wed and Thurs, plus have all the "musts."
And of course there are still dishes to wash, floors to sweep, trash to take out...
but I think I'll go amuse myself on my blog.

Good morning magda, enjoy your day at home! I know your daughter will--I remember those snow days. I shoveled again this morning, there was a little more snow than yesterday morning. It's supposed to keep snowing during the day, I emailed the other people in the building who help with snow and told them I had a busy day today and wouldn't be able to do any more. But, a few minutes ago I had 2 walks for today cancelled, so I'm not as busy as I thought I would be--I was glad for the cancellation. Scoop litter pans Make bed Pigeon care Eat breakfast Diane

Good morning Diane, Magda, Pamela & mylittlescholar (wishing you an awesome cruise scholar!). The sun is out here this morning and it promises to be a little bit warmer so that will help with swimming at the open air YWCA this afternoon!!! DONE: * shower * bullet journal notes I have a lot to do today but it's all clustered from 2 pm on so I have the morning and 1/2 the afternoon before getting busy and supper is made -- the chicken soup leftovers! Plans are to clean the dining table, start the laundry, read in Tools of Titans & scope/livestream, eat breakfast, call mom later on, YWCA, Depression Support Group after dinner. As I go - I will be putting things into my suitcase, there are still 6 and half weeks before I go but it helps to organize ahead AND most of the stuff I won't need to wear now -- it's so much warmer here generally speaking -- boots and socks, etc. can be packed. Off I go...............

Good Morning Everypony! Yes, tonight I go to hotel #1, so vacation officially "starts." I feel better having gotten some sleep--well, I will after I have some coffee! I have more to do than I can fit, but I am not gonna think about that yet... my first job is finish packing.
well first, meds, which is proving challenging (figuring out the med minder), so let me focus on that and come back later.
