with the laundry seahorse Finished watering plants Then I did something that surprised me: while I was sorting through clothes earlier I found a pair of 3/4 length pants which are too short on me, so I cut some off them to make shorts. I tacked up the new hems with the intention of hand sewing them but instead I got the sewing machine out of the cupboard and sewed them with that. I don't think I have used the sewing machine for more than 10 years. I am feeling quite pleased with myself - for successfully using the sewing machine and because I have been looking for shorts to buy and now I don't need to Rest on my laurels

Hi all, I keep falling off the wagon, but am trying to get back into some positive habits.
ta-da: Cleaned 2 toilet bowls Prepared and ate a healthy breakfast Texted my daughter for several minutes explaining why it is not a good idea to have a mandatory, in-person meeting with 100 people in a smallish room with no ventilation when omicron is surging. (Daughter is going to management with her concerns, and wanted to make sure she had the right talking points.) (I know this is not related to cleaning, decluttering, self care.... but...)
to-do: Go for a walk. I had been doing this most days for a long time, regardless of the weather, but stopped last summer. I need to start again. It's good for my mental health. Paint boards for chicken coop repair. Declutter, 5 minutes at a time. Work on buried in treasure book assignments.

Good morning, guys and dolls! @ally good job on getting back on the wagon! seahorse I like the way towels look standing on edge in a drawers. TA-DAH 1. Rolled up (more or less) worn-out rug, bagged its pad, and dragged the whole mess to the curb 2. Put away lights; now I know that when a package says “glitter stars,” it means “The glitter will not be any way affixed to the product.” 3. Threw out cracked, worn kitchen items 4. Ate breakfast salad and reheated coffee; washed dishes 5. Unsubscribed from store emails, which took a longer than expected because they insist on reasons. 6. Sorted out some junkmail from before the holidays It's the last day of the quarantine, so mostly I'm preparing for the drive to my hometown tomorrow. TO DO 1. Take clothes from dryer 2. Strip flannels from bed and wash in HOT 3. Re-wrap my brother's present since the paper tore
