Hi mouseanne & phoenixcat 
mouseanne You are doing great!
I'll give it a try today, but do have a headache from this morning that I haven't quite shaken off, yet. Took 3 Excedrin since 1am.
My plan is to spend at least 10 minutes on whatever number that I roll.
1. Dining Room, and (find check re: Blue Cross Blue Shield) 2. Paperwork: Check status of parent's LTC invoices, pay parent’s bills, Find/scan/send to DrBro Parent's Tax papers-download some other tax papers related to parents, find & complete direct deposit form for parents, get pmt ready to to to The Cottages. find parent's checks & order more, if needed.—both bank accounts & my personal bank account, update insurance addresses for parents. Order for parents: shredder, probiotics, alcohol swabs, pads for bed. 3. Laundry 4. Kitchen 5. Menu planning, grocery list, grocery shopping 6. empty trash all rooms 7. cook
Here goes... using random number generator at Random.org & gameboard method. Will brush teeth, first, since I haven’t done that yet.
1st #: 4 - Kitchen
Hope we all get tons done!

10 minutes spent in kitchen: put away hand-washed stuff from drainboard and unloaded a little from dishwasher.
After I make a salad for lunch, my next # generated is "2" which brings me to #6 Empty trash from all rooms.

Set up hand dishwashing
Cleared wiped a portion of fridge counter
Moved a box to left
Opened 2nd counter box, marked utensils
Yehaw found cooking utensils, heads stuck in a zip bags, clean enough to use, so put away
Emptied DW
Dumped two fridge containers
Loaded DW with last run leftovers
And stuff from box
Hand washed a bunch from box, draining
Hand washed used knife and ice cream scoop
Box is nearly empty, but went on decision overload
Transferred last 2 items dining room box, 1 box empty today
Unpacked my whisk, I was ready to buy one, then thought it's probably in THAT box and it was.
Hung vintage utensils on a row of cup hooks, not as cute as last presentation, and the ones with wooden handles with holes didn't fit. Oh, well some done is progress.

Ok, did 7 minutes in the office - worked on sorting through a large pile of mail I picked up from my PO box a few weeks ago. Have a pile of recycling and a pile for the shredder.
Just rolled a six, so taxes for 7 minutes! I started to sort the mail pile this morning before I dropped off recycling and trash, and there were some tax documents in there - now I know where to find some of the items I need to do my taxes!
Off I go...

Ok, seven minutes devoted to taxes! Found the forms I received months ago, the forms I found in the big pile of mail and somehow found my property taxes folder in my disastrous office. Put all of that stuff on the work table I set up for stay-at-home. Had a few minutes left, so shredded the shred pile and retrieved my office recycling basket that I took downstairs to empty earlier today. Put all of the mail recycling in there.
1 kitchen
2 refrigerator
3 office
4 porch
5 bathrooms
6 taxes
next up - random number generator has chosen 4, so to the porch for 7 minutes.
++++++++++++++++
tidied up the porch - not much to do out there and too cold to clean (wipe down the tables after the winter), so then moved to kitchen and put away the few dry dishes in the drainer and washed a few more. Also brought my walking clothes upstairs from the foyer floor where I had shed them after my earlier walk.
Just got a 5 so will tidy up the bathrooms for 7 minutes.
+++++++++++++++++
Worked in bathrooms - cleaned them not too long ago, so just did quick tidy and wiped the toilet down the powder room and cleaned the mirror in the main bathroom. Also returned a tissue box and liquid soap to powder room which had been sitting in the foyer since the last time I cleaned the powder room - I never finished up!
Just generated a 2 - so I will work on the fridge for a bit!

Hi cando - thanks for the motivation. And, you, too mouseanne ! Just did two 7-minutes sessions in the fridge - trying to sort out the fresh veggies - what's left and viable for this week. Trying to stretch everything as far as possible to avoid a trip to the grocery store. 1 kitchen 2 refrigerator 3 office 4 porch back bedroom 5 bathrooms bedroom foyer 6 taxes Next number is 5, so I will tidy my bedroom for 7 minutes. ************ Bedroom is now tidy enough. Going to heat up some soup for dinner and hope to have enough energy to do a little more later.  |
