Welcome to September! The guidelines for WIT are simple: - Do some little thing to make your house less squalorous. ☝️ - Do one more little thing. - Do another little thing. - Once you have 3 things done, post them here! - Post the next 3 things you plan on doing. - Go forth and conquer, return and post again. - You aren't required to do the 3 things you had planned on -- just get any 3 things done and then post proudly. Remember - if you are tired or sick or injured or depressed or overwhelmed, or just need to break your tasks down into something manageable, you are in the right place! If the next 15 minutes consists of: - Looked at hopeless living room and felt like crying 😢 - Decided you could take empty pop can to kitchen - Put away book 📚 - Picked up fast food wrappers on coffee table and put them in trash  . . . YOU HAVE ACHIEVED THREE-DOM !!! You could post: Ta-Da's - Took pop can to kitchen - Put away phone book - Threw away McDonald's wrappers Then your To-Do's: - Bring plates and glasses to kitchen - Put dirty socks in hamper - Bring folded towels to linen closet and put away. Whether you do those 3 to-do's, or something completely different, once you've gotten 3, come back and post. Remember to take breaks and drink water. Drinking water counts as a Ta-da! If you can notice what the person before you did, it might cheer them up to hear from you. Go forth, have fun, and be generous to yourself with the Ta-das. YOU DESERVE THEM! |

Good morning!   Remembered it's September! Started dishes soaking. Made bed and had meds.  Ask friend if she's interested in an event that we'd discussed before; put it on calendar. Run that same event past different friend. Email C. Pay bills: CC, R, L. Do some weeding. Mow lawn. Ponder how my fall challenge should be smaller and different from the summer challenge. Print out auto insurance card. Go to library and pharmacy? |

goldenthreads, you have a commendable list!  make bed take meds unload dw wash one load of laundry put away shoes vacuum bedroom rug reload dw get clothes off of line fold clothes from chair wiped off all three counters, shined sink sweep kitchen sweep living room sweep hallway gather laundry from bathrooms note: I interviewed for a job yesterday and should find out today. Please have some kind thoughts for me. I've reached the point in the process where I am second-guessing EVERYTHING I said. |

I'm still stuck in August... It went way too fast...
ta-da's:
Dishwasher was loaded and currently running
Took a large box of stuff out to car to be sold at a yard sale at my parent's house, or donated if it doesn't sell. (Proceeds from yard sale will go to a charity that is important to my extended family.)
A load of laundry has been done.
to-do:
Pack some food for tomorrow's snacks and meals. I will leave my house at 6 a.m., go to work, then drive to my dad's house with a planned arrival at 6:30 p.m. and I typically pack my meals.
Pack clothing toiletries for my stay at my dad's.
Brush my teeth, and get ready for bed.
