I think I gave up at some point yesterday.... we shifted a truck load of firewood and it is dirty and dusty and I started thinking what's the point of cleaning when we are actually, actively bringing dirt into the house..... What's the point... For days like this, wouldn't it be great to have a little shower house with warm water just outside the back door? There would be a little cabinet with bathrobes/dressing gowns in it. You could go in dirty, strip, shower, and come out clean. Or did you mean all that firewood was being carried into the house? Oooh, I have no fantasy solutions for that. Good for you, deciding to get up and do stuff today anyway. Enjoy the anticipation and planning of your holiday! You are due to have some relaxation.

I like the idea of an outside shower goldenthreads but it's the dirt firewood I was thinking of and just how dirty fires are in general. Everything is covered in a layer of ash all winter... But I enjoy the warmth. Cleaned hen shed Shower Visited Dad Grocery shopping Folded clean washing Started a 'to do' for our holiday Prepare dinner for tomorrow night Breakfast for tomorrow Make plans for tomorrow - working from home

Next: 1. Breakfast 2. switch laundry 3. clean kitchen (wash few hand washable dishes, wipe the counters) I switched things up a bit. Breakfast is eaten, and much later I also made a smoothie for lunch. The second load is in the washing machine now, first load was hung up to dry. I went to downstair laundry drying room and switched the warm air blowing dryer on again. Showered, scrubbed the shower stall, and got ready. I don't have much house work planned for today, but I have lot of other stuff. Next things to do is to - fill form 1 and answer email - fill form 2 and submit - hand was few dishes, wipe the kitchen counters - BONUS (can be multitasked): backup cloud content

Form 2 is filled but didn't submit it. I noticed something, which made me postpone it for a day or two. My second (not listed here) task was put together a document and write an email and send it. My third item was to do those backups. I also deleted the content from the cloud storage. Next: 1. hang up laundry 2. hand was few dishes, wipe the kitchen counters 3. walk
