good morning .... I survived my big meeting yesterday, thanks for the moral support! I did end up working until 9 (not 9:30) on Sunday, then I was just too tired and I was working on a document that I really needed boss input on anyway.
I was the very first one in the parking lot (that i park in) at work yesterday morning! I wanted to print out all my documents and prep as much as I could. I then had a 9-10 prep meeting too with Chaos -- but she was late, and then when she got in, had to meet w/someone else suddenly, so I was there all ready to go and just waited til 9:30. We did minimal prep but at least I had all my ducks in a row to use a cliche! we had tech difficulties that ate up about 20 minutes of the actual meeting (I was glad!) and then the meeting was fine, my documents were not used, but I had all the data in my head from preparing them, so I was able to speak knowledgeably and authoratively! and the documents needed to be done, even though they were not ultimately used for the meeting, I needed to get them done anyway.
So one more work day done ...yesterday I picked up DD from practice in the afternoon, took dog for walk, DD was off in the car to the mall w/friend so it was another super easy dinner of just me and the pup and the cats ....
I am very tired today, I have discovered that I have so much energy to give-- I gave a lot to yesterday and now I am very subdued and could maybe nap ...if it was not a work day! But I might lay down for lunch (working at home for one of the last days today due the rapid and crazy rescheduling of meetings by Chaos!)
fed animals, played with puppy, had two meetings, did emails including two really important ones.

Took my lunch and ran to the bank to get two bank checks to pay for my school and city taxes. I had to drop them off at the post office to ensure they were postmarked by today. I am so used to paying everything on line.....
it is getting warm and a bit muggy outside....

I am so used to paying everything on line..... ohblondie - It's such a pain when there is something you can't pay online. I think almost everything is set that way now -- even the PTA fundraisers at school have either Paypal or Venmo set up to go to the person in charge. I remember I used to have to write checks for school lunches until they set up a system where you could pay right into your students account. Of course neither of my school aged kids eat lunch at school now.

I just learned that deleting your voicemails does not clear them out. You have to go in and delete the deleted voicemails. School of redundancy redundancy.....

Hi Angie!
The attorney was here, it took longer than I thought because he had a bunch of documents in duplicate that I had to sign and then he had to notarize. Since then I've just been lazing around, eating lunch and reading. I need to get the rest of the garbage and recycling outside, and then take the cans to the street. I also wanted to do more laundry today. First I need to return a call to my decluttering client.

MamaAngie ....I learned I can overnight treats to my kids when they are having a bad day - thank you amazon prime! We do this with my niece who is in Nebraska too ohblondie! Actually her mama is with her right now as she had oral surgery yesterday. My friend in Idaho recently moved and her delivery in her building is so-so she has told me. Anyway we've Venmo'd to pay each other before, so I know she'll still be excited as she's on a really tight budget as she just went back to school and is not working much.

Oops two hours daydreaming on the www about holidays to Morocco, but sigh...it's on the covid Amber list and likely to be put into Red...so back to earth with a bump to sort my mess out closer to home.. .. Wednesday .. Early swim πβοΈ Sausages for Breakfast πβοΈ Found box of bird food & bird feeder filledβοΈ Masses of laundry to put away next βοΈ finally ! Washing up βοΈ Redo storage of sheets and sewing stuffβοΈ Filing (been delayed from last week) ...oops, not yet πββοΈ Hopefully clean inside car and put back in not essential items .βοΈ Start clearing buildup in bedroom...... halfway started, it looks less overwhelming now that the airing cupboard can finally be closed... ππ ...sooooo not as much done as I hoped, thanks to some guilty time on the www & YouTube, but at least there is a visible difference

Good morning, from storm drenched Pensacola. The waters are receding ...the sun is shining and It is getting cooler outside. It is time for me to start thinking about cleaning up and decluttering places that are oppressively hot : the garage, the shed and my yard. We call this time of year Indian Summer.
