Omg, I just got up and slept through my alarm. I looked at the time and it said 10:35 am and I was like that is bad but not too bad then I remembered the time change. 11:35 am I nearly slept til noon if it wasnt for the time change.
So much for me getting up at 6:45 and being productive.
Morning Everyone!

Thank you SetMeFree.
I'm home from my walk, and I've had lunch. I only have a little bit to go to complete my series book bookshelves so I'm going to work on those until they're done.

The series bookshelves are done, I have purged a lot and that means I have a couple of short shelves empty on the last book case. I was able to get rid of quite a few, considering these have been keepers for so many years.
Next:
Clean up from lunch Floss teeth Brush teeth Start load of laundry-cat linens

Diane you’d like it here today -cold!!!
I incentivized DD to go to the mall- spend a half hour cleaning your room and we can go. So here we are at the mall. I did the same and spent about a half hour or so just picking up things and hanging up and pick up and straightening in closet.

Magda it's cold here too, unseasonably--I keep thinking we still have to have some 50s weather before winter really sets in.
I had a short phone call, which I took while reclining on the bed, and it felt so comfortable I decided to stay there and read for a bit. Of course, I fell asleep, I must have slept for at least 30 minutes, maybe more.
I now have the laundry in the dryer and will get ready for my second walk pretty soon. I'm supposed to get two long phone calls tonight, so I think the rest of the day will not be very productive. I still haven't put those last 2 storm windows down, and now I will probably wait until tomorrow.
Diane

Oh Magda...I love the first day or so of "fall back" as well. It is the only two mornings I wake up feeling somewhat decent!!
Well my supervisor went to a party last night. One of my dear friends was at that party. Someone asked my supervisor when she was retiring. My supervisor pretty much spun the story that the place would fall apart with out her and she stopped just short of claiming she was asked to stay. The story was delivered with a straight face and tear filled eyes. One guy called her on it and flat out said it was bs, no one is irreplaceable in that place. Others ignored her. My friend laughed at her. I think my supervisor is the only one that believed herself!!!
We went to a party last night. It was at that rich person's house that built this mansion that is lovely but so not my style. I do have to say it was nice sitting around the kitchen island that was the size of a small country. I left around 10 to walk the dog and then crawl in bed. They texted me around 11-1130 asking me to come back to the party. I said no and closed my eyes and went to sleep.
Today I voted, got my picture taken voting, went to church, came home and threw in a load of jeans, walked for 2-3 hrs campaigning, came home did two more loads, went grocery shopping, and now I am at the laundromat drying 12 pair of jeans and several large towels.
DH unloaded the groceries and put dinner in the oven. I will go home and eat!
Oh, I also got the guest bed made. I had to move everything to a pile on the side of the room. I am now going through that pile. I found a missing Christmas gift.....hurray!! I also found a candle that is burning right now. It smells so fall like!
I think I will work more in that room tonight. I need to fold clothes and get them put away.
I just keep plugging away at it

Well, Diane, my guests don't know this, but I can tell when they have opened the invite. Then they can mark the invite Yes, No, or Maybe. So they haven't decided whether to mark it "Maybe" yet!
XSO came over and we hung out. It was nice. She had injured her hand pretty badly at work. I invited her to the party and she accepted. Detente.
I just got a boost cause my last fb biz post got a lot of engagements. So even though its cold and DARK, I am feeling light-hearted about tackling my boxes!

Saw Mom today and felt prickly when she had action items for me. It wasn’t anything much just some mail that Mom was supposed to give nurse that she wanted me to walk down and drop off at nurses station on way out. I think it is because no matter what it is with Mom or how simple it is for her to do it that it is always she wants me to do it. And if I am like just literally hand it to nurse next time she comes in room or when she gives Mom meds, Mom goes into guilt routine about all she has done for me and I was a c section baby yada yada and how I am so selfish that I can’t do one litlle thing for her - even though it is all the time. This is reason we can’t live together even if she was able and better. One time I counted 23 just one little thing items from between 9 am and 11:30 am on one Saturday and then Mom started in with stop counting that is being ungrateful and I lost my trim waist line because of you. I don’t know how I stood it for 9 years of her living with me. Dr said it was killing me and we just could not live together.
I love her and I miss her but I swear all I can think of sometimes is Dobby is a free elf clutching my sock in gratitude.

TML that sounds so difficult!! We just arrived home. We were at the mall; DD has some new clothes. We went to posh grocery for dinner and for a few things like cat food, the essentials I am going to try and just have us eat down the supplies in our kitchen this week. To be a bit frugal. We also went to church Now home, put the few groceries away. Took out trash. Might be done for the night, except for litter and dishes
