Good Morning seahorse You are certainly on a roll this morning! I haven't posted much over the past few weeks because life got in the way... I read an article this past week about how important it is to make room in our days for creativity. I will try to keep this in mind as select my to-dos. ta-da's: Got up and went out to the chicken coop. Found one egg. There should be more later. Loaded up the dishwasher Made some whole-grain blueberry pancakes. to-do sometime later today: One hour of classwork. There weren't many assignments early on, but now there are several assignments due every week. One hour of creativity. I joined a quilt-along which may have been a mistake, but I want to try to participate/catch-up. I have never been in a quilt-along before, and I'm hoping that it will improve my skills as far as color and design. Go for a walk Yardwork, water houseplants but right now for indoor tasks: clean kitchen, dining room, laundry?

Hi Ally ! Oh my goodness - I was just thinking of this same general topic last night: "how important it is to make room in our days for creativity". I agree and want to build in time during my days for creativity. Good luck! Good morning goldenthreads - great job so far! TA DA Joined a virtual cleaning buddy for a chat session and got some stuff done around the house Cleaned the toilet and tub in upstairs bathroom Emptied a little more old stuff from the fridge Washed some more dishes Threw away (yay!) some bags that have been cluttering up my kitchen - small and large plastic food bags that I couldn't decide if I should wash out and reuse or toss (so hard for me to toss plastic). Now that everything has been mouse infested - the choice was easy - out they all went! Also found some plastic bags in the fridge, so tossed them, too - yay! Took a nice long popcorn and netflix on the porch break and now would like to return to some turtle steps to keep moving forward... TO DO Find one item in fridge to toss or compost Wash popcorn bowl Start vacuuming bedroom (vacuum is plugged in and ready to go) TO DO

Hi all... I've been a bit "scattered" today.
ta-da's: Put canned goods away. Some of these were purchased months ago and just sitting in a bag in the corner of the kitchen. Loaded and ran the dishwasher Long story, but went to buy some mums and swiss chard at the greenhouse down the road. Worked on the garden bed that I've been trying to de-weed. I thought the weeds would be dead with all the layers of darkness I had covered them with, but no such luck. Assembled a mini-greenhouse/cold frame that I intend to try to keep some greens growing in this winter (at least until the BIG snows come) It's worth a try.
to-do: Empty the dishwasher Cook some chicken and rice More tidying up in the kitchen Go for a walk? Clean out my car?

Ally : "Worked on the garden bed that I've been trying to de-weed. I thought the weeds would be dead with all the layers of darkness I had covered them with, but no such luck. Assembled a mini-greenhouse/cold frame that I intend to try to keep some greens growing in this winter (at least until the BIG snows come) It's worth a try."This is a sad and funny juxtaposition. You'd think the weeds would have the decency either to die off or to become actual salad greens. Good luck with the cold frame. I always kind of wanted one. seahorse , good job on the bedroom floor and the refrigerator contents. gaylem , I'm beginning to think you're a bit of a tech wiz. Hi, Louie and razy ! Hung other things on the drying rack. Washed dishes. Consolidated some stuff from big box to smaller box; recycled big box.Go through fridge: assess and purge as necessary. Clear sofa. Pack up the computer cable to return to store.
Make car appointment. Take blood pressure.
Work 15 minutes on the project. Work 10 minutes on bedroom project. Finish lawn.

TO DO Go downstairs Take bottom left drawer from fridge and put in sink Fill with hot soapy water and let soak
I just emptied a few bags of old rotting apples from that drawer - will be nice to have it clean and ready for the new produce!
