Welcome to August! 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! |

Pulled a bunch of mint that I just recently noticed, plus its bindweed buddy. I'll keep the main mint section.
Trained a few tomato branchlets into their cages.
Run errands.
Shower and get dressed.
Pay a CC bill.

Congratulations on the made bed! I know that it's not a high priority, but I like to do it because it's fast and then I have one large clear surface in the place. Washed dishes. Transferred load to dryer and rack. Put away clothes from rack. Change bank PW. Pay CC bill. Do stretches. Shower and get dressed.

Happy August
After a big storm the weather has turned. Lower temps and humidity. Still summer but not oven.
I dropped off two bags, a vacuum and a box of stuff at donation truck.
Noticed gas prices are over 4.00 at several locations. The discount places were 3.85. I don't drive a lot so it is not something I track but usually see news when it jumps.
to do
change bed sheets
vacuum bedroom
laundry

Hi, beesnest. I'm sorry about your curtains. Photos can be so misleading.  Woke up too early. Took out recycling. Washed dishes. PUPA 5 minutes. Do some weeding. Mow lawn if the grass dries and it's not too hot. We've had three consecutive days of rain. Order dehumidifier? Change bank PW. Respond to group email. |
