mouseanne - I tossed the vacuum bag. skatters - Thanks to your comment I decided to stop dreading and just do it! The laundry/pantry room took longer than I anticipated (as usual) but is clean. The hardest part was hooking up the dryer vent. In the process tested Clean My Space Youtube video cleaning techniques which made the process more entertaining...if there is such a thing. calypso - I was diagnosed with lung cancer in July 2019. Many tests then lung surgery, radiation concurrent with chemo followed. You comments are encouraging me to hire help. My brother's advanced heart disease and diabetes and my own disease have taken a toll on my ability to maintain a clean home and now dejunk so we can move. Brother is 73 and I am 77.

Ok. Well. I sorta blew off most of yesterday.
TaDa
I ate the rice beans for supper, it was as grim as I remembered, I'm tossing the rest. Weird. Rice, black beans, kidney beans, orange veg (sweet potato or a squash), cubed pork, leek, sounds yummy, no idea what went wrong.

Hi mouseanne . Sorry the meal still didn't tickle your taste buds. sidestep dusts the powdered sugar evidence away from last nite's meal.  Congrats on more laundry & dishes. Did you make the cornbread? I bake so seldom I ridiculously tossed one muffin pan wondering why I had 2. Oops, I do need that when I make corn muffins. Oops!

gaylem - I am proud of you for getting the laundry room floor done!! No more dreading it! Sorry to hear about your health problems too. mouseanne - congrats on dishwasher! sidestep - great job on freezer tossing and errands! but especially freezer tossing! I am going to spend the day at a state park with my aunt, socially distant. It's super cloudy but not supposed to rain, but I am crossing my fingers anyway. She's packing a picnic lunch, but I need to bring a few things too. I am looking forward to it! And because of all the hard work in the house the past couple of weeks, I can go without guilt, and the house is pretty much ready for my first week full time back at work, though I could stand to do some laundry. I would like to get a few things done before I go though. TaDa: Got vertical Caffeine New batteries in TV remote Revamped the budget. Blech. Doesn't look any better revamped.

skatters - A day at the state park is a wonderful reward for all your hard work. A state park visit is one of my favorite things and I plan to follow your example soon.

mouseanne - you've been rocking today!! Look at you go! Congrats!! I soaked my toilet riser in bleach water in the tub before I stored it away for next time I break my foot. I went and had a great picnic with my aunt! The park was beautiful! Everything is SO green! We could see other families, and hear lots of fun noises and laughter. So nice to feel like we're getting back to normal! (but still socially distant because we can't get back to complete normal.) I am not sure I am too worried about doing much for the rest of the night. My aunt gave me a couple of books I might delve into. But we'll see.

TaDa
Last night cleaned toilet bowl
Washed, seasoned, put iron pan
It sat overnight, shouldn't have sat in water, not good for them
I was going to chicken something for supper, but ate frozen egg rolls instead
Maintenance rabbit hole, was going to ask Google something, noticed I had 49 tabs open, it shuts the oldest down when I open more than 50, so I went thru the tablet, putting bookmarks on sites, and closing tabs. It too a while, you have wait for each tab to load. By then I forgot what I wanted from Google. Senior brain. Or ADHD.

mouseanne - I get sucked down those rabbit holes all the time. sidestep - good job on your shower and healthy breakfast! I got up and immediately into the shower. But beyond that I've done nothing. Have to leave for work in 2 hours. First week back for 40 hr weeks. First since Feb between broken foot and Covid. I expect it's going to be a long week! I still want to get up an hour early, but maybe long week means to bed an hour earlier. I have no frozen meals to take to work, and no lunch meat. So unless I want peanut butter sandwich, I have to find something to take for dinner at work. TaDa: Got vertical Showered Caffeinated Meds Get dressed Brush teeth See how long that pasta dish takes to cook Cook pasta dishCook meatballs to go over leftover mashed potatoes Unload dishwasher while pasta cooks Refill pop in fridge Make gravy Wash meatball/gravy pan ToDo: Get lunch and purse ready Find my glasses!! Pick up prescription on way to work I'm off for work! I probably won't be back later tonight as I don't get home until midnight... but I'll be back in the morning!
