hey everypony! I'm surprised it is still morning, but then again I have been doing my admin since 7:00 am. ready for that nap!
on the squirrels. I'm holding out hope they were on the roof, not in it!
I've been updating lists all morning, so I will skip the done list.
I do have some urgent things to deal with: find my debit card get other CC app up and running (need to call) do my exercises review my crafting items and pull things to take to craft swap tomorrow find the missing magazine I need to return to the library tomorrow do either the toiletries project or ?
but first meds and a nap

Good afternoon scholar!
Your library lets you check out magazines?
Today I need to at least open the box containing my new printer and look at the instruction book. I bought it a few months ago and was afraid to try to set it up... I will need to use baby steps on this one.
Next:
10 minutes on paper 10 minutes PEEPing Get printer box out and open it Delete 10 hard emails

mylittlescholar I am pretty sure, well certain they are in the attic by the scritching sounds. Diane I love animals but not in my attic by the hundreds yikes So I have been chipping away at my work projects. doing pretty well. re: socio. well she is being really sweet to me so I said to a team member I wonder what is brewing? and Chaos reported she is being really sweet to her too so she had the same thought... well today we found out that indeed a thing is being cooked up. sigh. this will lead to needing documentation and meetings and all sorts of drama. but not this afternoon so I'll put it out of mind! unfortunately one of my team members sort of enabled this one, so ugh. for lunch I had a bunch of things I wanted to get done and I did them: washed face and put makeup on to go out in the world did the dishes wrote out check for important payment filled out two important forms to mail got sympathy card ready to mail wrote out check for dental bill to mail went and made one payment in person went to post office for the other payments and card to mail bought box at post office for DD care package stopped at Aldi's for allergy med came home those tasks took me 1 hour and 26 minutes. I am interested in timing stuff so I can plan better. I was going to stop for gas but it would add to much time on. came back to a chaos call. it was ok. is stressful as she always wants to move deadlines up all the time w/out understanding the plans or the ramifications. Now I want to go figure out the status of a project that has been neglected. being out in the world ever so briefly has led to allergic reactions. this is my hardest time. but I absolutely love running errands footlose and fancy free in the middle of a workday! I feel so free.

Figured out what I needed to do and know to get my digital gift card. Had enough points for new appliances! Thanks, DXH! found the magazine. I will go read it now. I need to do art today.

That IS awesome scholar, our library does not lend out magazines. Although, I can't read all the books I take out in time, so I'm sure it would be the same with magazines!
I did the second set up step with the printer too, filling the ink tanks.
I'm going to cook some veggies for dinner, and while they're cooking I'll see if I can easily do another printer step.

Now my internet is going in and out! It's been fine for several days and now we're back to the in and out. I still have to get my dry laundry from the basement, and I will try to finish this printer setup tonight--but if not, tomorrow. There's one issue with it so far, I don't know if it will be a problem or not.
I will say goodnight now in case I can't get back online--see you tomorrow in the weekend thread!

For anyone interested: my public library gives access to online versions of hundreds of magazines, for free! (you don't have to worry about losing them, damaging them, spilling coffee on them, or returning them late!) See if your library has "libbyapp".

Bree---Several years ago, I had squirrels in my attic, not the attic part where I can walk up the stairs and access it, but above that. Yes, the scritching sound. Ended up where the man who came set up a trap leading to outside because of the possibility of babies up there. After a few weeks, the whole trap exit thing made a very loud noise one Saturday morning while I was still in bed. I panicked and ran outside and left him a message. He came and yes, there were 2 little babies in the trap thing who had finally gotten big enough to follow Mama out. He went up and brought it down and took them to a wooded place far away. He and his little boy were both there. He said if they were just released down the road at our very near park, they would come back. Then the roof man was called to fix everything back the original way. I think it came to $1400.00. I just couldn't let the babies die though. I hope you don't end up with all that . The man thought it was most likely that there were babies and there were. catcats

Did the dailies, showered and washed hair, folded the 3 loads of wash , and then had to stop because of back and knee pain. Watched a Netflix movie and was able to cook dinner. I feel somewhat better now, so I am doing a few other small things. Talked to my BFF in CT. Also had many many mailbox ants again so had to clean that out. also I mopped the BR floor with vinegar water.
My best to all.
