Welcome to November! 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! |

Enjoy your time at home goldenthreads ! Hi itsybitsy and good luck!! Woohoo enjoy the game Ally - I hope it's more successful than last week's.  TA DA Closed eyes for quick 5-minute doze - feeling very tired today Plugged in phone to charge Mostly cleared off bed - put stuff in box and kept lid off so that I can sort at some point in the near future rather than forget about it. Also put a few items away Pulled up bed covers so that it looks more "made" 5 minutes kitchen I have baby spinach and baby lettuces, so decided to not cut veggies to add to dinner salads; will just serve greens, which will be fine - less work and less mess! Also heating up a local frozen pizza, so dinner will be simple, but yummy TO DO Put on walking clothes and shoes Turn on window candles General tidying until friend arrives |

Thanks everyone! I'm trying to get a few things done, but taking it easy in between. I really thought it was just a cold. I tested negative a few days ago. This morning I got up a little after midnight, with a sore throat and runny nose... I was so mucusy that I decided to test myself again... at least I could do something with some of that mucus! and the tests were old and really needed to be used...  I was really surprised when it came back positive. ta-da's: Took compostables out Emptied the dishwasher Watered half of the houseplants (My church brought me over some pork and sauerkraut for lunch, which is the traditional New Years Day meal in PA Dutch country, I'm not PA Dutch, but decided to try to keep an open mind. I ate a serving. I'm not a fan.) to-do: I'm going to be watching a little football (virtual football watching party with seahorse "Fly Eagles Fly!") Finish watering the plants Put some laundry away. Figure out what to do with the pants I ordered. They are too tight, but I have gained about 10 pounds over the past 6 months. Should I order a size larger, or make a goal to lose 10-12 pounds? and is that enough? Try on the two tops I ordered and make decisions. Start preliminary packing for trip. |
