Hello oust! How did you manage to go into a grocery store and not buy anything?
I had lunch, and am having trouble making myself stand up. The stairs are especially hard on my feet after walking.
I have about an hour until my phone call, I'm going to feed the outside birds again and then do some PEEPing on this floor.
Diane

Diane, we don't need anything food wise. I was just in there looking for sales on something we might need. The best they could do was a good pack of steak from $44 to $30. Still, $30 just on meat.....i left it.
I just all the laundry to dry as its so warm in here Ate too much chocolate Turned the seedlings to the sun.

My twice-weekly phone calls are getting longer and longer.
I took the dog out and put away a few more groceries.
But now I'm going to make dinner.

Worked from home yesterday - computer issues. I was not able to complete the work I had planned to do but I did get a great deal of unplanned (and necessary) work done.
over lunch I ran to the bank and picked up a check that closed out one of my aunt's accounts. I was able to successfully deposit it online. One more thing off of that list.
I also grabbed a few groceries. I did not want to get much but I did get two packages of ground beef to break down and freeze. DH went back last night to get what he needed, that I did not know he needed. I bought this pouch of dry soup ingredients. All you had to do was add 8 cups of water and let it simmer. Presto chango hot soup. It was so salty. I dont think making soup from scratch is really that hard and it would not be so salty. Especially if I make it on a work from home day where I can dump it in a pot and let it simmer.
I helped my mom shower last night I folded and put away all of their clean clothes. I brought her more TP and neatly put it in her cupboard. I watered all of the plants. I feel like I did a lot of little tidying up things.
OK - time to wrap up all that I did yesterday. And time for more lists to get things out of my head.

Good morning ohblondie!
It did start raining during the night, and seemed to keep raining until shortly before it was time to take the dog out, that was good timing. I haven't looked in the basement yet to see if there's any water. I did remember last night to go down there and make sure I didn't inadvertently leave anything in the middle of the floor where water pools when it comes in, I also went out and swept up seed debris from the seed pool so it would be less messy this morning. I forgot to sweep the basement well but I checked it this morning and the drain wasn't clogged.
We'll get some more rain during the day and then maybe some snow showers in the evening.

Rainy Thursday! Hello Diane and ohblondieWork has been extremely hectic. I had a two day workshop snd I had to do most of the support work to get it done do I have been working late doing work that is not my job cuz we have so little help. Ugh I have been keeping up w litter, trash, dishes mail and dog walks. I just did a backyard poop patrol in the unrelenting rain, once a guy was here working on trees and he said I can tell you take good care of your dog- I could not tell if he was being sarcastic as puppy has caused $1000s of damage to my yard, plants, fence and deck. A once beautiful tifil yard is now a total mess. But he said your yard is free of dog poop and told me about some of the yards he sees. snd it made me feel better yes I scoop it every day. I’ll take positive feedback as I can get it! Puppy has stirred from a long winters nap. She is in phase two of napping. Phase one is deep deep sleep on love seat with paws up. Phase two by my feet. I am working from home and have no meetings and it is such a relief -I am in recovery from running the workshops and all that work and constant group activity for two days. Now my introvert part is like a sponge dialing up the quiet! I need to work on the tasks I had to neglect. There might be a break in the rain at 5 so puppy walk penciled in! I have a bone waiting for the afternoon. Girlcat is so restless. She walks around with her scratchy/meow/ whine/chirp and won’t settle. This is typical for her

Good afternoon bree and PS!
yes I scoop it every day.
Bree, we can tell you had cats before a dog since you are "scooping" your yard!  I just took the dog out and scooped my yard--all the snow is melted now and there were a few very small spots I missed while the snow was there.
The rain started again a little while ago, I checked the basement and it was completely dry despite this morning's rain, but if it rains hard enough this afternoon it's possible some will leak in.
I also got another call from my shopping friend, that took about 30 minutes. Then my decluttering client called but that was shorter.
Now it's time for lunch.
Diane
