yrwelcome 75% of table surface is great! Hi, cando! Hope all goes well with that surgery. Ally for clearing out all the aquarium stuff!
Plans for staying at home just blew up. Daughter's friend bailed on prepaid plans for this evening, so now I'm going instead.
Transferred laundry to dryer and rack. Cleared counter and put out ingredients and measuring cups and spoons for bread. Went for a very brisk, short walk.
Make bread. Do something with the tomatoes. (Put a big one in my salad.) Plan the week around appointments and various obligations.

Getting the aquarium out is major Ally, those things take up a lot of space, do you have plans for the new empty area?
I went to the garage and grabbed a nice new saucepan, some red plastic cups and a couple of other useful things. Sometimes it feels like i am shopping in there. I had enough to fill and turn on the dishwasher as i bought dishwasher tablets this week Cooked up a pack of cheesy rice Took dh to work
I tried to condense down 3 boxes into 2, but its too much for 2 still. I have more to work on which as we all know "I don't wanna!!!"

I know the feeling of shopping in your own home!
Ta-da: - Stripped bed & pillowcases to wash! It has been a long time—long enough to disgust some people, I’m sure. Including that, have done three loads of laundry so far today… one folded. - Made and ate kasha. Made (and almost finished drinking) marshmallow tea. - Looked up info for renters on rights regarding the sale of property you live in. Contacted city for clarification on some points. Glad to have done this. - Took out two bins of trash and the recycling.
To do: - Finish marshmallow tea. - Fold latest load of laundry. - Add borax to pair of stained trousers soaking in bathtub.

Thank you, goldenthreads I am so worried about my DMil. @ally Great job getting aquariums out of the house. oust i hate those don't wannas................................... yrwelcome sorry you're having to deal with credit card fraud. Yikes! quietbird Great job with Laundry & linens. tadas: 1) dressed2shoes
2) ate breakfast 3) moved laundry load to dryer & hung the hang-dry things
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Another set. Tadas: 1) folded/hung load of laundry 2) Put away that load3) Tried on a pair of sweatpants that were my DDad's thinking they might fit my Mom. They fit me, but doubt they will fit her. *bonus* Shopped for a minute or 2 online to see if I can get some pants that might fit DMom. She's been eating, well, at the Group Care Home and gained back all the weight she had lost from when she had about stopped eating and the doctor's wanted to put a feeding tube in her. Thankfully, we refused! Anyway, DMom has a teeny tiny waist but her hips are the issue & she is short. So, she needs more pants, now & she is hard to fit. A 3rd set: 1) Went to Trader Joe's for a couple things, but then offered to bring things back for DS & his wife, and also for a friend. Ended up being in the store waay too long as their requests were not simple. Also, there was a man set up & playing the accordion in the parking lot when I came out. Being a music lover, etc.... had to stop, watch & listen for a while from my car for a few minutes.2) Put groceries away -- I'll take the items to DS, tomorrow. Put them in my refrigerator & freezer. 3) took some Matza Ball Soup to our friend. Todos: 1) heat up dinner 2) Put away hand-washed stuff from drainboard 3) unload dishwasher CD

Well, I had a blast. It was the best meal I've had in years, and the jazz musicians were very good and played the sort that I like. We were both happy we went. I came home to bread ingredients on the counter. They will be dealt with in the morning.
yrwelcome I think I might try that paste on my plastic laminate countertop. Bleach doesn't always work. quietbird It's good to see you again. I'm not telling how seldom I change the linens. I don't sweat much! oust As you keep pulling things from your store in the garage, you might end up with some boxes with miscellaneous things you don't need after all. Then they'll be sitting there ready to go to donations or trash/recycling! Good luck with 3--> 2 boxes! razy You had a cozy, relaxed evening and still took care of the kitchen.
Took out compostables and recycling. Planned the week around appointments and various obligations. Swore up and down that I will do as much as possible tomorrow and Tuesday (unscheduled days) so the rest of the week (quite scheduled by my standards) goes well.
Tomorrow Make bread. Do something with the tomatoes. (I did put a big one in my salad.) Make a bunch of appointments. Put away the laundry.
Good night!

The Jazz music and night out sounded fun. Thrift stores are getting picky Ally. I hope someone takes it. razy, i haven't made a quiche in years. It used to be a staple of mine so easy if i remember correctly. Cando, all that trash going out will make things better. Can't beat getting trash out.
I started cooking a chicken and vegetable curry and it's in the dutch oven I kept up on all dishes this morning i emptied the dishwasher and put it all away.
I am dressing warmer but we're getting to 60 degrees today so i have windows open. Also i don't want it to smell like curry too much.
