No matter how decently organized it looks, all it takes is one day out, and bringing in some purchases, and whammo !
Oh catcats, how funny you should say this right now--I just thought the very same thing 10 minutes ago--the house was decluttered last night and now there are groceries and office supplies all over the room I'm in! I'm putting the groceries away now...

It was so windy yesterday that part of our fence blew over. DH fixed it. I am not complaining as part of the roof at one of our schools got damaged. That will be pricey.
I have reached out to the venue where my DD wants her shower. We booked the date - I just need to drop off the money. I tried last weekend but the person was out of town for the weekend. I reached out to her today and she hasnt gotten back to me. I hope we didnt lose it.
I am so starving for lunch - almost able to eat - so busy.
Busy weekend ahead - but now to get some documents scanned and dealt with

I was planning a trip to the library tomorrow and for some reason, didn't want to go then...so I decided to just go this afternoon and get it over with. My feet weren't happy about more walking and it took me a long time, but I went, so now I can stay home tomorrow.
It's time for lunch.

Good afternoon oust!
Okay, am I the only one that doesn't take things like this in stride? I called the doctor's office and said I'd like my last test results emailed to me. (The doctor does not provide ANY paperwork to you after a visit. He does not have any kind of portal so you can get test results. The only way to get a copy is to ask for them.) So the person who answered the phone said "we can't email them to you, but we can print them out and you can pick them up." ME: You've always emailed them before. HER: Hold on. Comes back. HER: (some name I didn't catch) is the one who emails them, and she hasn't been in for a while. ME: Do you know when she'll be in? HER: I don't know. ME: Any idea, like maybe next week some time? HER: I don't know. ME, frustrated at this point: Do you know if she's coming back at all? HER: I don't know.
At this point I just stopped talking. Finally she said "I guess we could mail them to you."
I said, okay, please mail them to me.
I have an appointment there in about a week and I could have said I'd pick them up, but I want to see them before the appointment. The doctor had called about part of them, but not all of them. I don't know how long this doctor will last, he's another sole practitioner trying to make it on his own, and he's almost as old as I am. I'm pretty sure he'll be retiring soon.
I have time and energy for one more list.

Okay, I still have groceries and bags not put away but they're all in the shopping cart in the living room so that's okay, especially since this morning when I woke up the place was at baseline, so today counts.
My feet and ankles are killing me, I barely made it up the stairs the last time I came up here. But I'll be able to go to bed soon, and sleep will (hopefully) restore me.
I'm eating now but before I go downstairs I would still like to post my challenge goals.

hey everypony!
having some mini-pity parties. I'll allow myself a brief one, but don't want to hang out there because, well, its miserable. Today I was listening to the soundtrack of DUNE 2 (came out today) which was really dramatic. DVD asked it I wanted something more cheerful. I said "NO! this is perfect! I need to get it out of my system."
I am obsessed with Dune right now. I'm either watching videos, or planning our Dune diorama for the Peeps Diorama Contest at the library, or listening... today we went to the cinema to see if we could get some popcorn holders, but they didn't get any Dune merchandise. *le sigh* We have tickets for TOMORROW!
I still have some urgent financial stuff to take care of, but haven't had the concentration. I have found what I need for that one. Two other urgent things require a search.
DONE: got woken up by the housekeeper knocking at the door! I didn't see the last update of her starting time. made coffee folded towels and put away
did morning online check in got dressed to Cinema to thrift store to Physical Therapy to Grocery Deli sat in the car and ate it while it rained to Office Supply (they had a 60-80% off sale of a craft item, but we couldn't think of a project it would help.) to Drug Store
did my drawing homework in the car
home again did some putting away and tidying up went through a big box of scrapbook stuff--paper kits I have made or bought that are filed in giant plastic envelopes after it was exploded, I realized I was running on fumes put it back best I could pulled some DUNE colored paper while I was at it
chilled with phone with a cup of soup DVD brought me
heated up some soup
brought "Days Until Santa Comes" sigh in, 'cause the storm knocked it over and the numbers went flying now I think I am rested enough to get started on scrapbooking for a bit
about DUNE!
