Everything's done. Now I've got 90 minutes until I need to start dinner. Whatever will I do with myself. You know, I admire all you ladies. You work all day. I just work until around 3:00 and take a big long break on days when T doesn't have school and, therefore, homework. Maybe I should be doing more.

Laundry is all caught up. Everything folded and put away. I even have nice clean bedding on again.
Did the dishes earlier, so they are also caught up. I'm having a bit of a siesta and then I'm going to find a half-dozen books to donate. If I work in the library at dusk or into the evening, I can draw the curtains and put on some of the reading lamps. Try to get back the mood I love sinking into when I'm in there.
Good luck to everyone! I'm quite happy with my weekend ta-das!

I am jumping in at the end, and in no particular order:
...on my third load of laundry. Ready to fold some so that I will have another basket to be able to dirt out more!
Did the grocery shopping.
Cleared out some stuff from the fridge, reorganized a little and wiped the shelves.
Made a sandwich for lunch.
Took out some trash. Threw out the broken coffee pot. Donated the carafe.
Ready to start in my bedroom, again....

That sounds very appealing, mynicehome.
Pamela, I, for one, don't work all day--at least, not without breaks! Reading breaks! One of which I will be taking very soon... If your work is done by 3:00, that's great! If you feel like you're wasting time or there's something else you'd like to accomplish, then figure out how you'd like to use the time. Personally, I think some down time is essential to our mental health.
Next:
10 minutes on last year's condo work list 10 minutes on a clutter pile Start a load of laundry Quick sweep of LR/SP/Entry/Hallway

Made up some no-bake cookies with the boys. There was a cookie sheet and a pizza pan full of cookies. Now let's see if we can eat them all.
Next up: Make dinner: "Swedish" meatballs, which are apparently good but not authentic. Dishes to dw Put away leftovers after DH gets home and has his dinner

Pamela, I'm sure there'll be no problem eating all the cookies!
I never did get to the clutter pile, my 10 minutes of looking at building emails for the last year turned into 50 minutes--I was reminded of lots of building problems I had forgotten about. I just wanted a list of what we did so that it was obvious that being on the board is a lot of work, even though the average resident here might not know what we're doing. I made a rough list but I'll have to rewrite it in a coherent way.
However, I'm going to read for a while first. And probably eat dinner.

I meant to say coffee maker.....the pot/carafe was still good.
Bagged up some clothes for the rummage sale. I would bring them straight to the car but it is raining. Folded jeans and put them away.
Looking around for dirty clothes to make a full load. Maybe I will grab towels instead.
I need to fill another bag!!

Ohblondie, it's a lot of fun when you can see local things in a movie! I've had that happen a few times years ago, back when I watched movies...
Well, after dinner I ended up trying to answer a condo questionnaire from a lender, and am getting stuck on some of the answers. I'm going to just send them requested documents and tell them I don't know all the answers--they'll have to look through the documents for the answers, I'm not going to spend any more time on it.
Next:
Email documents and be done with this issue! Give everyone fresh water Restock drinks in fridge Scoop litter pans
