The other day while poking around in jars on my desk, I discovered $200 that I must have set aside for a trip. Now I have the stash for the next trip. There are occasional pleasant surprises in messes! Hi, missjean ! This calendar is a wet-erase one. My pens are in the silverware drawer right there. I am always hoping to buy my way into better organization. I really love office supplies. Good job on culling the collections of hangers and clothes. Transferred yesterday's wash to dryer and rack, just in time. Phew. Washed dishes. Took out compostables.  Clean out purse. Post in BIT thread. Go through some of the papers on the table. Do stretches. Work on taxes. Get dressed.

Hi, razy ! Sounds like an energetic, determined day for you. missjean I was once standing in line at Target, and there was a young woman holding about three dozen hangers. It was all I could do to stop myself saying, "Wait, wait! Follow me to my house. I have PLENTY! FREE!" Got dressed. Took out recycling. Put some upcoming events on the laptop desktop in conspicuous size and colors.  Clean out purse. Post in BIT thread. Go through some of the papers on the table. Do stretches. Work on taxes.

Put away dishes. Cleaned bathroom sink, including using the wonderful little drain cleaning tool. Refilled liquid soap dispensers.  Clean out purse. Post in BIT thread. Go through some of the papers on the table. Do stretches. Work on taxes. Oh, look! The to-do list looks pretty much like the one from this morning.  I will see if I can knock them out when I get back from doing a thing.

My family social things ran long yesterday afternoon and evening. I'm going to be away this morning and early afternoon, so I need to get ready for that event. Good morning!  Shower and get dressed. Gather the necessary things and put on launch pad. Write out directions. Buy gas. Pick up daughter and show up on time.

Good morning, guys and dolls! goldenthreads have a great day! TA-DAH 1. Put away dry clothes I plan to keep 2. Ran the dryer a bit longer 3. Bagged up dry jeans and sweatshirt (aka bye, baggy clothes!) 4. Sorted socks, underwear, etc. into different drawers 5. Hung up slips alongside remaining dresses 6. Took an orphaned sock and used it to clean dustbunnies off the edge of the rug 7. Mopped dustbunnies that were uncovered in my office when I moved a box (I haven't been able to vacuum in there since before the pandemic - YUCK!) 8. Sorted a box out 9. Shredded old ID badge TO DO I want to drop donations off today, so these are my three goals for the next hour: 1. Fill a final bag of clothes 2. Find household items that will fit into car (the trunk/boot is full!) 3. Find the electric cord for an item I want to donate

TA-DA 1. Filled a final bag of clothes 2. Cleaned up an end-table and took to car 3. Drove donations to the drop-off (very busy today!) 4. Post office errand 5. Sorted mail and reconciled all charges on credit card 6. Shredded receipts
I discovered a half-filled box of donations that I didn't take. It's all right because I couldn't find the electric cord for an item I wanted to donate. I will aim to drop off more things next week.
1. Showered and changed into clean clothes 2. Put away dry dishes 3. Washed lunch bowl & utensils
TO DO 1. Empty shredder 2. Empty wastebaskets from various rooms 3. Hunt down the audiobooks my friend gave me for Christmas, which I haven't heard yet.

Good day all. Yesterday my daughter had talked to me about going to a garden show today or tomorrow, but I guess she changed her mind? I texted her earlier asking her if she stil wanted to go, and she didn't respond. There was lots of unexpected drama at work over the past days. I just hope things settle soon.
It's been a gloomy day, which affects my mood and make it harder for me to get stuff done.
ta-da's: Emptied the dishwasher Did a load of laundry Put most of the laundry away
to-do: I'm going to put my coat on and walk for a couple of miles. It will be good for me! Put the rest of the laundry away. Maybe plan some of my veggie garden, do I need to buy seeds? (probably not) Look at what I want do use for a chick enclosure, if I do get chicks again this spring.

Ally I hope your workplace settles down and your DD can go tomorrow. Hi razy  TA-DA 1. Emptied shredder 2. Emptied wastebaskets from various rooms 3. Hunted down the audiobooks my friend gave me for Christmas I did an inventory and need specific ingredients and, if the price is right, LED bulbs. I really didn't plan on going anywhere the rest of the day. The livingroom feels so much lighter without the bags, boxes, and table! See you later!
