Hey puppy box if you want to reply to Diane on your blog I would love to read it. Sorry for the typos Iām writing, rather dictating, on my phone. Finished up a document that I really wanted to get completed tonight just so I could cross it off my list, will not just for that reason, but also so I could in good conscious move on to other things.
I was interrupted by DXH Dashing in from the car to grab me to listen to fresh air. š®
Somewhere in there I made food and posted to my groups. I have a date to discuss The next steps on the house, budgeting etc. with the DXH tomorrow.
Hope I can fall asleep, I have a big day.
Good night every pony.

picked up recycling thats been on the floor of the kitchen for about a year
Puppy, you're on a roll!
I did wake up fairly late today, and since waking up I haven't done much. I need to finish my morning routine and get ready for mid-day work, any spare time will be spent in PEEPing. Looking out the window I see another light coating of white on the lawns, but the sun is shining brightly so it might disappear soon.
Have a great day, everyone!
Diane

Moving slowly today. Woke up early this morning with a headache while still in bed. And it's not a hangover! Wish I could report it was the after-effect of a wild party last night, . I had such high hopes for getting a lot done while stuck at home during the snow. Maybe by this evening I'll be up to speed again. For now, I've taken a hot shower, took a Tylenol and an allergy pill, tried to stretch out my tight neck muscles a bit, and I'm drinking plenty of liquids in case it's just dehydration. I just printed out a sign for our storm door asking the delivery people to put things inside the porch, so next I'll tape it up. (Yesterday they left a carton that was ripped open, with the rip down on the ground. Sometimes they leave things on the step just outside the door, so you can't open the door without knocking the box onto the ground. And on a day like today, they're apt to just put it down in the slush!) To Dos for this afternoon --Call Mom (Done)--Work on laundry --Windows Updates (Done)--Do old-people yoga DVD if I'm up to it --More food prep, so dinner is ready even if the power goes out I'll leave paperwork for this evening.

Good morning everypony!
Coffee sure is bitter. Hey I just realized I've effectively given up dairy for Lent. I come from a family of milk-addicts, so it's actually a thing. Maybe this can help me reframe it and stop moaning and groaning about it!
In fact, I think I'll go write up a gratitude list before I do anything else!

okay, that's better!
Hope you had a nice crisp walk, with no ice, Diane! I just got a picture of my Godmother who fell on her face--not pretty! ohblondie I forgot this week too, after trying to be a hero about it and telling DXH I would handle it. DustyD I hope your headache goes away. It's pretty dry here with the heat on. It just occured to me that I turned the air filter on in DXH's bedroom, which also dries out the air, so I should fill his humidifier.
DONE: make coffee bring up white board and easel start timesheet text sponsee and AP check in w/ DXH
NEXT UP: prep for action call

Good afternoon everyone, I'm home from mid-day work and I've had lunch.
My goal for this afternoon is to work on my sunporch, living room and entryway, to see if I can get rid of anything else. I recently came to the realization that I still have a bit too much stuff, and that makes it look cluttery. All my apartment storage spaces are full, so I either need to get rid of more stuff that's out, or get rid of something in the storage spaces so I can store the stuff that's out. So that's my goal for the next few hours--reevaluating these rooms.
Diane

Hi everyone. š Way to go on all the decluttering, etc!!
Was in a snow globe again this morning.
Spent several hours accompanying my friend on his calls again today. Drove to another town about 35 miles away.
The highlight of the day was stopping at a greasy spoon for a bowl of chili and a huge slice of pie. š

nonchalant hope your power comes back on soon. Diane, sounds like a good project. I'm still dragging and puttering along. Had to take a nap and a 2nd tylenol. But I did get quite a bit done, just not paperwork because my brain's not up to it. I made meatloaf, mashed potatoes, pasta salad, and pudding. Ran the dishwasher twice. Moved laundry along. My TOPS meeting tonight was cancelled and my mom's friend cancelled our lunch date for tomorrow. It's just as well; if I'm mostly at home tomorrow I can work on the paperwork I couldn't do today. I'm going to take another nap, and possibly another hot shower later on just to warm up. Have a good night everyone, see you tomorrow.

Hey everyone! Nonchalant, I hope your power isn't out too long. Well, this was an interesting afternoon. I did go around the three rooms and did regular decluttering, then I looked at what was still out. I emptied out a basket near the front door that had a lot of miscellaneous stuff in it, some went elsewhere and some was recycled. I emptied everything off my main desk, used orange oil on it (looks and smells so good) and only put back the stuff I really want on there. I got rid of a lot, the rest of the stuff is in a spare bin so I'll have to go through that. Some is reading material so I just have to take the time to read it. It still doesn't look a lot better in here because I have those book boxes in here, I have the bin of extra stuff, and the bird cages need to be vacuumed around. But it's getting there. I talked to my shopping friend, we've set a tentative date to shop on Friday. I talked to my sister, she had her soft cast removed today but they replaced it with a brace for 3 more weeks. It sounds like she doesn't have to wear it every minute, but she can't remember what they told her about that, so she has to call them tomorrow and ask. She sounds okay emotionally, she's actually starting to read a little again, which I take as a great sign. It's now time to get ready for bed, so that's what I'll do. Diane
