Ohblondie, you had a full and busy day! I hope you get to put your feet up and relax at some point this weekend.
I've been doing odds and ends here and there, things I think should be done before Monday's work. This is a bad time to have to bring the huge bird cage upstairs, the only place there's room for it is the reading room and that's where my seedlings are, but it can't be helped, I'll have to work around it.
Good night everyone, see you tomorrow!
Diane

Good Morning everyone. I was awake most of the night, I think it was my medication. I am used to extended release and I think this wasnt. So I felt nauseous. I keep ginger all for times like this. So today will be rough - but I will plow through
I have the corned beef in the crockpot. I used a can of beer and vegetable broth. I will add the cabbage part way through. potatos and carrots om top of the beef.
Time for a load of laundry then reach out to my mom to figure out our plans for the day.
I have two bags of clothes to donate. I will bring them to my mom and her friend will pick them up tomorrow
i am rambling - time to get moving

Good morning ohblondie!
It's snowing here! Well, it's just a few flakes here and there, but it's actually snow coming down!
I'm cleaning bathrooms now, I clean for a while and stop, because I'm getting down on the floor to clean around the toilets and that kills my back. But eventually they'll get done.
I'm also doing a load of laundry.

Hi Everyone!!! Thanks for getting the weekend started lennon !!! It looks like everyone is getting things done - moving forward Diane - I can imagine it feels wonderful not to have to worry about decluttering when having someone come in to work on house. I was overwhelmed last week and even yesterday. Today I am trying to get some done and to get ready for next week. I have picked up groceries and sorted/started laundry (2 washed and one in dryer) I need to put up the groceries and clean out the fridge to set up for the week. Also I need to make something for lunch/dinner.

Hi TML!
I've been staying pretty busy, I'm just kind of walking around and doing things as I see them. I straightened up the back porch, did more vacuuming, and finished the laundry.
I did have a mess on the kitchen table with seeds that I've collected, I cleaned that all up--although that doesn't count as clutter to me since I often have seeds on the table, it's a work table so it will usually have some mess on it.
I'm pretty ready for tomorrow, and my back hurts, so I'm going to sit and rest for a while before dinner.
The handyman is coming at 7:30 tomorrow so I will have to set a second alarm to be sure I'm up at 6!

WHat a day...
I picked up my mom at 11 and we went and grabbed a breakfast sandwich We then hit boskov's She looped the petite dept a couple of times and found 2 pr of pants and two shirts we went upstairs and got fudge for her friend then back downstairs and she found a pair of black sneakers. We then went to visit my dad I got her back barely in time for dinner
my corned beef in the crockpot was good. i probably could have gotten a bigger piece of meat At least we are not overwhelmed with leftovers and nothing will get tossed
last load of jeans in the wash. hurray.....
ok - time to put left overs away and clean up the kitchen

I'm very pleased with today, I got a lot of little miscellaneous cleaning things done that I just never pay attention to--and it didn't even feel like I was doing it because someone's coming over, I even worked in areas that the handyman will not see. I guess part of this is that I have so much extra time now...and part is because the house was decluttered, which motivates me.
Good night everyone, I will see you at some time tomorrow in the weekday thread!
Diane
