Started a grocery list. Transferred last night's laundry to dryer and rack. Started dishes soaking. Feeling noncommittal but determined. Who knows? I dunno... and something else.

Good morning goldenthreads! ta-da: I responded to an email which got me a little distracted, and sent me down the rabbit hole. A few years ago, through a DNA test, I found a second cousin to my husband, living near London. Their grandmothers were sisters. Some of my husbands relatives have since connected/facetimed with her and then emailed me about the experience. I got a little sidetracked trying to explore some of the family history and reviewing some documents. (There are several rumors on this side of the family that I'd like to explore.) Sorted out vitamins, 2 weeks worth. Went plogging. It is humid and buggy out there. Brought in some stuff from my car Did some dishes, baking some bread that I started yesterday. to-do: Food prep for this week's work meals I'd like to clean out the chicken coop this afternoon, unless it is too hot and buggy. Laundry Decluttering

Transferred laundry to dryer and rack. Put errand items on launch pad. Did stretches. Maybe do a third small load today if I get the two dryer loads put away first. Shower and get dressed. Run errands: post office, library, gas station, grocery store(?). Do some weeding.

Good almost-afternoon, guys and dolls! I don't know why you thought that was too much missjean. All I had on my list was to put away the laundry and clean up kitchen after dinner prep. No big project. And those got done. Of course there is a new list of the same things again today since I did more laundry and made banana bread. The way you worded your original, I figured the three tasks on your list might encompass smaller, unlisted tasks and that's why you felt you hadn't accomplished anything yet. Like "clean kitchen counters" might include removing appliances from the surface, scrubbing grout or things like that. My bad for misunderstanding! TA-DA 1. Put away dry dishes 2. Washed breakfast dishes and coffee pot 3. Cleared and cleaned top of big bookcase 4. Picked up various small things that had fallen behind furniture 5. Cleaned the world! (a globe, to be precise) 6. Put items related to another project in a separate area TO DO I decided last evening to move the furniture around in the office/library, if only to thoroughly clean and "rescue" papers. 1. Remove rug 2. Take heavy art books to another room 3. Unhook electronics, dust, and move to another room
