goldenthreads, I don't know if you are on social media, but if you are, there are often groups for specific models and makes of cars with people who give advice for free. Depending on how they are moderated, they can be very helpful. Of course some are not moderated well, but it might not hurt to try. Another thing is that auto parts stores will often have a free service where they will hook your car up to their computer and they can read you the codes and at least give you a hint about what is up. You could always buy new wiper blades or something to give them a little business. ta-da: Up ate some breakfast The cat seems disappointed that I'm not giving her meds in the morning anymore. I used to give it to her with lickable treats, which she loved. I only do that at night now. Cleaned some stuff out of the vehicle that I am taking for service later today Loaded and started the dishwasher to-do: Load boxes of books into vehicle Unload the dishwasher tidy up kitchen/bathroom later: take boxes of books to a place that sells what they can and recycles the rest Take car for service.

![::bigwave::](//storage.proboards.com/1879832/images/pRhEAeDOizKmRmmfSQoJ.gif) Good morning! I'm still trying to get back in the swing of things, rethinking what I do on certain days, etc. I'm using a journaling app called Day One, trying out planning in it, too. Have to keep things interesting! Done -Made planned breakfast -Tried some stretches in bed before getting up, that I saw on youtube -DH and I walked around the block early, as it's supposed to get hot later -Get dishwasher going -Start laundry load #1 it's finished now -Laundry load #2 is started -Crockpot banana bread is cooking; fingers crossed -Celery and asparagus are cut up To Do -5 minute pick up -Put new fridge filter in -Laundry load #2 into dryer, start washer self cleaning cycle

Hi, oust! 50% of a huge wash load put away is a real achievement! ![::yellclap-1::](//storage.proboards.com/1879832/images/zIDYeuDsTN0gn0Jpytun.gif) Good luck with the other half. Thanks for the info, Ally . The dinging didn't happen the next time driving. I was able to look on a car owners' forum and some said that it sometimes happened to them when they had some stuff sitting on the passenger seat, and that it'd be an alert that the "passenger" didn't have the seatbelt on. I'm accepting that as the answer for now. Hi, DustyD ! That journaling app looks interesting. Started dishes soaking. Put away laundry from rack. Had meds and made bed.

Hello dear WIT'ers! I am feeling as if I am losing momentum, and decided that I have to persist until I get it back. So, today, I am going back to the basics plus one thing. The sink isn't pristine, but it won't take me more than 15-20 mins to make it so. The bathroom needs a swish and swipe. Thank goodness the weekend is coming, as I tend to be more productive there, can't figure out why. ![](http://storage.proboards.com/1879832/images/WeamWPsdbFOhqlJwttmh.gif)

Nael_C, I think we all go through cycles. Somedays I can declutter a lot rather easily, but often I look and have trouble getting started, and am happy if I just do a little. ta-da: Breakfast Took trash out to the road Loaded some stuff in the dishwasher Sipping some tea to-do: Tidy and declutter kitchen, dining room Laundry CLA meeting

Last night I did finish with the laundry and got the new fridge filter in. I didn't do the 5 minute pickup, so I will aim for two today. This morning I got out on my walk around the block. It's my 8th day in a row. I also stretched again, and used the stand-up weeder for 15 minutes. I definitely got more done with that than I would have kneeling down to weed, and it was easier. But still a workout according to my Apple watch.
To Do -Towels load -Sheets load -Remake bed -Join online work session and work on admin stuff -5 min pickup -5 min pickup

goldenthreads Our car has a weird bug that if we drop someone off while the car is still running - it thinks that the person who left has removed the seatbelt but is still there. So, it flashes the missing seatbelt sign and makes an annoying sound. We have to turn off the engine for a few minutes or just put up with the beeping for about a mile or so and then it adjusts itself. I'm sure the issue is on the short list for the next routine service. ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/1879832/images/GuBQQkiwyXxnHbJKesLq.gif) Drives you crazy the first few times because you think someone left a car door or trunk open. ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/1879832/images/GuBQQkiwyXxnHbJKesLq.gif) . My vehicle too (much older than DH's) will flash the missing seatbelt sign if I have something heavy sitting on the passenger seat. Technology

It's slow going for me today.
Wiped kitchen sink Started a load of laundry Shredded some paper
Looked for something fun to do locally over the summer. I've been wanting to get a kayak for years, found a local shop that does day and evening trips, with rentals, which might be the way to go. Then I can decide whether I really want to buy one, and what to look for.
to-do: Pack up food for tomorrow's lunch meals Continue with the laundry Declutter: Find 10 items to discard or donate File papers. I have a perpetual pile of papers in my bedroom that gets shuffled around but not managed. Sort through and deal with at least 10 papers. Yes, I am trying to get unstuck. 10 items at a time.
