Pamela, it's hard not having a car but when I hear about repair costs I figure it's just as well, I could never afford them!
After my walk I visited with the client for a while, and then came home and ate lunch.
Next:
Update planner Make label for paint can so I can finally bring it downstairs PEEP in kitchen

I'm looking forward to my movie tonight. I got Passengers. It looks pretty good from what I've seen. I'll probably regret staying up for it, though, as I have to leave tomorrow at 9 AM. Oh well. I have to get up in the morning regardless.
Next up: Go through T's backpack Kill 1 1/2 hours Hopefully pick up car Add cabbage to slow cooker
After dinner: Dishes to dw Put away leftovers Get boys' clothes out for tomorrow Help boys clean room

Pamela, it looks like you did great today!
I ended up on another 30 minute phone call, this time with the board member who hasn't been at a meeting for 6 months. Then I took all the rest of the little library books down to the basement, so I'm happy about that. There are still LL books around, but the ones in a stack of boxes in the DR are out of here.
Now I have to get ready to go to my 2 walks tonight.

Pamela -- I admire how much you are getting done!!!!!! I am grateful I got the lawn mowed earlier -- I just love to see the back yard which is right behind our bedroom looking nice and green and mowed!!!! The tree is even getting green!!!! Also done: * called Mom * livestream done! * went with DH to St Joseph's to pick up fish fry he got us for supper! * worked thru the financial stuff I needed to do for this month and next * washed dishes and cleaned and closed the kitchen!!! Now I am going to put a little planning though into the next 2 days -- what I want my weekend to be. I sometimes do too much or not at all in terms of stuff outside the home -- so I do need to put thought into it and make decisions. Also would like to get a card ready to mail to my Mom. It is sometimes very hard to think of anything to write since we talk every day but she loves to get mail. I tried to make it easier by getting a really cute card so it's not like big blank pieces of paper -- I can just write something that fits on the card. I don't know why I'm making that into a big difficulty. I like to write. Also for tonight is looking out for the package that will come -- I ordered Cypress oil to go with the peppermint to spray as a bug repellent. And I'd like to see a movie on Netflix if I can find a comedy.

Thanks, ladies. You're both doing really well, too.
I didn't help the boys clean their room. Dinner was late, and my neighbor, whom I'd invited to join us, was still here. I'll have to do it tomorrow.
My car was never finished. They're having some sort of difficulty with it. They're saying it should be done around 8:30-9 tomorrow morning. I hope so, because I'm supposed to go out of town. I shouldn't have brought my car in. I should have waited until Tuesday. I knew something would go wrong. I was sure of it. But, DH convinced me to do it anyway. I need to learn to trust my gut.
Anyway, I'm done for the night. Goodnight, all. Hope you enjoy the rest of your evening.

good day all I am starting with laundry, and have one load hung to dry. I want to see if I can get more loads done this afternoon, which should be achievable. I have also taken the recycles out, and started working through the newspapers, which are threatening to swallow the house.

Pamela hope u get your car back! Is it your only one or does your dh have one too?
This afternoon at work was extremely busy. I had several things that had to be don't by close of business. Each had a twist.
One doc I had to get out as part of a package had a mistake. I could not fix for technical reasons so I had to go back to originator and ask her to fix her doc and resubmit ASAP. She did phew so i could make my deadline
A bigwig dropped by and asked me to do something before end of day
Another project that I ok'd in the morning'- the project contact called me back 3x furing my busy afternoon to confirm info he already had. He just was not checking his files. So he'd call and interrupt and ask for something and I'd say you have it. And he'd say no I don't oh wait yes I do ...,I had to take his calls because we had to get it in today
And another project also had to be done and required four people to take action on short notice. They all did! Yay. But it was lots if back and forth.
All if this stuff was happening pretty simultaneously!!!
Anyway I am home now.
Picked up dd. ran to grocery store. Dropped off library book that was due Came home. Had corn beef and cabbage Did dishes. Fed cats Now watching bball game and surfing around I'll clean litter but prob nothing else

Pamela, I hope you're able to go on your trip tomorrow. Does this mean the repair bill will be higher than quoted? Good morning jendela! I know how newspapers build up--I have to keep giving up the idea that I'll read all the articles that I want to, and just recycling them when they get too many. I don't want to go back to where I was years ago, STACKS of newspapers and magazines, that I was absolutely sure I would someday read. Never again! Magda, your day sounds tiring, although it sounds like everything worked out so I'm sure it was satisfying as well. It sounds like you earned your weekend! I haven't done a thing since coming home, except eating dinner. I immediately started playing a computer game, which usually tells me that I'm trying to empty my mind and not think about things. Upon reflection I realize it's because of the two conversations I had with board members today. There's a ton of work ahead, there are only a couple of people who could potentially agree to be on the board, and if they don't do so I'm not sure what'll happen. I think I need to forget about it for a while, if that's even possible. I have one more light work day tomorrow and then 5 days of being very busy. So tomorrow I need to have some relaxation, as well as getting everything PEEPed so I go into my busy days with things looking reasonably good. Scoop litter pans Restock drinks in fridge Give everyone fresh water Check locks Diane
