ta-da: Checked work email. There are a lot of changes going on, they are switching over to a whole new software system for scheduling, payroll, etc. as well as a new phone system. I tried to do the MTH assignment, but I won't have access until tomorrow. Took compost out, Added a few more things to the dishwasher, and then started it. Started a load of laundry Did a tiny amount of tidying up, shredded some paper
to-do: I'm going to take a break for a couple of minutes. I am still supposed to be on activity restrictions, Maybe knit another round of my sweater? Continue with laundry and dishes later
CLA meeting (meditation into action) in about 30 minutes
tidying up: I may use the dice game for this. I really want to get stuff out of the house. I'm tired of all of the clutter, and it has been leading to increasing tension between DH and I.

ta-da: Called into CLA "meditation into action meeting", Did some of my assignment for this week's step-group meeting tomorrow Moved the laundry into the dryer, bit-by-bit, then hung up bit-by-bit; my dryer does better when the loads are split into smaller amounts
Last evening while cleaning through my piles and hoard, I came across a box of finishing nails that was in sad shape. I had set it aside, and then accidentally knocked it over. Nails scattered on a cluttered floor... This morning I found a small jar, and picked up the nails and put them into the jar.
A few weeks ago I found a tape dispenser that has been missing the cutting blade. I really had thought about tossing it, butI failed to follow through. Yesterday, in that same place where the nails were, I found the metal piece. I was about to throw it out, but found that I had NOT tossed out the dispenser. I just found some super glue and glued the blade back in place. Yay. Unfortunately, this reinforces my tendency not to throw things out!
to-do: Finish putting laundry away Empty the dishwasher Check today's mail.
Over the past few weeks, I have listed something about ordering seeds and/or plants for my garden. I have not done it yet. I might work on that this afternoon during one of my breaks.

What a beautiful picture, Ally! Thanks for sharing that. Makes me want to head east to walk in those woods. Changed my way of thinking about certain foods. I realized that food sits around too long because either I don't want to prepare it or I almost dread eating it. So I ditched some stuff that was given to me that I should've said no to, or was an experimental purchase that wasn't very good. Took out trash and compostables (including above-mentioned food). Put out the bins. Grocery shop. Declutter some papers. Declutter some books.
