Hi, razy and missjean ! I was just groping around in the cupboard to see what was interfering with the turntable. It was a partly eaten chocolate Easter bunny! The "best by" date and the flavor tell me it was from 2023! Still, I regard it as a bonus for solving a problem. Yep, low standards when there's no other chocolate to eat in the house. Put away dishes. Looked for teapot lid. Tightened toilet handle. Call Pilates instructor to set appointment. Left message. Find teapot lid lost Wednesday or since. Looked in the three outside bins, indoor receptacles, and oven. Next: kitchen counters, kitchen floor, sofa, living room floor. It's a wild, wild, world in here. Errands: library, grocery store Monday errand: pharmacy (forgot it's closed on the weekend)

Hello, Nael_C! My missing teapot lid popped up, literally! This morning I pulled out my over-the-sink roll-up drying rack from the cupboard, and out popped the lid. I must have been semi-conscious when I rolled it up and put it away. Washed dishes. Made bed and had meds. PUPA 5 minutes. Call Pilates instructor to set appointment. Left message.

howdy, how's everyone? still stumbling along recent accomplishments emptied dw hung wet bathmats on tub edge, amazingly were not stinky from being in HE washer wet for days, no idea how they weren't couldn't dry, last report's dry pjs are still in dryer ran a dw load & emptied gathered all the paper bits made a medical calender of events & turned in $2,500 in FLEX reimbursement claims (yea, THAT's why my main credit card has had a running balance) let's see how long it takes to get the money this time (it's mine, not theirs, so go figure, right?) Fri-dumped rain water out of trash bin, picked up the crapola that flowed into the street--Go, me! carried in chewey order-3 boxes of 40# cat litter, took out my stinky kitchen trash, the trash I gathered at my last report here, 3 bagged boxes of cat litter, and dumped the current litter pan. This type of thing totally winds me breathless, so I got smart, so first put my O 2 in a backpack and wore it during the task, that helped ever so much. so, conclusion, if you are lung compromised, wear your 0 2 while house-tasking!!! on a related note, my med box isn't filled, and I've been skipping morning meds. Hell-oooo! That includes an anti-depressant ya got there!! Perhaps part of the problem, ya think? sheesh!!! dress teeth/face/hair put away winter short boots hanging out in the bathroom

mouseanne You got me! I didn't want to take that challenge because it meant stopping watching a show. Then I told myself I was being ridiculous, set the timer for 30 minutes, and went at it. Recycled/shredded some junk mail. Lubricated shredder. Washed a bunch more dishes; am almost caught up from the cooking marathon earlier this week. Cleaned one kitchen sink, including the disgusting drain. Put the rack of drying dishes up on the counter and scoured the even more disgusting sink and drain. Neatened up a shelf in kitchen. Do weeding. Sign document. Errands: library, grocery store Waiting forMonday errand: pharmacy the return call from Pilates instructor to set appointment.

Done -Weeding at least 15 min -Put shopping bags back in car -Took a shower -Try on tops for size -Read half an hour in library book -30 minute kitchen clean-up for Mouseann's challenge It's almost 9 pm here. I didn't need a nap this evening. Calling today a victory for energy management. I'd thought of going to an event, but it would have meant a lot of extra driving and walking. Glad I didn't go.
