He publicly praised me for how I handled a project in front of entire division.
Wow, good work magda! And so nice that they acknowledged you.
I didn't prepare any book boxes because they're still saying possible thunderstorms all morning long. I guess I will try for Monday, and I will wait to box them up until the weekend since I only have 7 days once the box is registered.
Next is medicating and feeding the cat--he passed only a small piece of stool this evening, not enough, but he's not in any distress, he's acting very normal for the last few hours (slept a lot earlier in between visiting litter pans) so I will wait and see how he is in the morning.
Another tiny lithops is pushing out a little flower bud so there might be a second flower. They are so cute!
Good night everyone, see you in the morning!
Diane

I'm so glad they acknowledged all your hard work and good sense, magda!
I got three videos shot. I am pleased to be getting some content ready, but now I need to learn how to use the editing software. I think I am aspiring to become a millennial and live online with few possessions.
Could not sleep, however, so finally gave up. If I can stay up all day, maybe I can flip this around. I have an early and long day tomorrow, so I really need to rest tonight.
DONE: helped DXH with his wiring job
removed makeup meditated uploaded stuff to fb
unloaded/loaded dw took meds

Good morning scholar! Does all this video shooting have to do with possible work? Is the focus now on packing? When you pack, are you going to eventually take things back to California with you or will your home base still be Georgia?
As forecast, it is raining lightly right now, the radar shows a big swath of rain across the middle section of the country, drifting NE. So I guess they were correct this time.
The sewer people are out on the corner again, I looked out the window a little while ago and two guys are walking around our front lawn, and bending down and looking under cars. They have that tool they use to open up manhole covers, so I assume they lost one...
I'm eating breakfast now--something I have to do this morning is take the air-conditioner out of the window. I left it in last year and tried to cover it, but it really didn't work, it was still too cold around that window, so this year I have to take it out. It's heavier than my last one so I will have to be very careful. The temp will drop this afternoon and stay cold for several days and who knows how long it will be before the board decides we need heat.

Good morning everypony!
Yes, the video is related to my organizing biz. I will be documenting the re-packing process, in fact. Saving two birds with one bird-feeder, or something like that! Good luck with your A/C, I imagine that is a bit nerve-wracking.
Interestingly, working on my "content" is helping me clarify my criteria for what I want to keep, as it is focusing me on what I plan to be doing in the future.
DONE: filed water cup
got dressed took a walk took a selfie
I took a walk to see if it would help me stay awake. It was quiet and still out. Grateful for this moment of nice weather, considering what is happening elsewhere.
NEXT UP: take shower get dressed again

B has made a difference just filling that small trash can every day. I see his desk!
My new glasses are ready for picking up so I'll go soon.
Its very fresh breezy out here. The sun is warm. Its a nice day.
No work today. I have errands and then will go through a couple more work bags. Probably go to Costco for crossiants.

Oust, it's so nice that B is inspired by your efforts to do decluttering. I hope it continues to grow.
I want to take books out to the little library but it's been steadily raining for the last couple of hours, so I have to wait.
Okay, time to tackle the scary air conditioner. It was in the 60s this morning and it's already down to the 50s.

Well, that WAS scary, but not because of the weight of the air conditioner. I moved a large, heavy bin of books next to the window and was able to slide the AC right down on the bin, where it still is. But I could not get the window to move at first. I was trying to hang on to the AC while moving the window up so I could get a good grip on it (I'm always terrified of it falling out of the window during this part) and the window would not move. I had to slide the AC out a little at a time and when I got it out, I had to wiggle and tap the window until it got unstuck, then I was able to push it down with more force than usual--it made a screeching noise while closing. So...when it gets warm again and I have to open it, I'll likely have a problem, but I won't worry about that now. I have to figure out if I can get the AC onto the floor under the DR table for the winter. If so, I'll have to move the bin of books somewhere else.
There's so much cleaning to do in that corner, it's really dirty. And I have to put the wood and bricks and insulation material away somewhere too.

Got my glasses. What a difference. I can see leaves on the trees again.
I swept the balcony getting it ready for winter. Closed the chairs and put them against the wall Just leaving my recliner out.
Costco was good. Lots of free snacks to eat. I got $11 back as things I bought last week are now on sale. Asked for our spend total this year and it's over 3k. Not sure how I feel about this. I know I cut back dramatically.
B has gone off for his eyes test. He did add another 6 papers to his trash can. You are right Diane, this is rubbing off on him I cooked pasta as we have vodka sauce in the fridge to use up. Some chicken is ready too so it will all be put together for a meal.
