Good morning!
Thanks for starting the thread, lennon!
I got a decent amount of sleep but with a 2 hour sleepless period in the middle of it. I still feel tired today, but knowing I have an entire week ahead with no workers here makes me want to get started doing things.
Have a good weekend, everyone!
Diane

Good morning, Lennon, ohBlondie, and Diane! Wishing you both a wonderful day of productivity ahead.
I have been majorly procrastinating a major project for work. If I don’t submit it by Friday, I will loose a significant amount of pay. I don’t know why I am procrastinating. Today, I am going to count the number of words I type, as I play my Race to 100 Game. (For anyone new, I count every little action I do and when I get to 100, I take a break. This really works for me.)
I have already completed a Round of Race to 100 this morning (plus a little more):
DONE
Took trash out of master bath
Gathered up dirty clothes

Unloaded dishwasher
Reloaded dishwasher
Dealt with yesterdays mail
Made important social media post
Sent important message

Happy Weekend. I am having a very slow start!
all I have done is feed animals, some fetch with puppy, did dishes.
Diane do you live next door to me? My neighbor has been working outside industriously for hours in her gardens. I was sipping coffee in my pajama bottoms. I need to invest in pajama pants that don't cry out pajama pants!
I also called vet for a new thing - puppy has some rash at her neck under the collar. thankfully we can get in Monday am and my work calendar was open. toying with making it a work at home day.
yesterday I was so productive! at work and home,
after the work day ended, I had a golden time of 1.5 hours -- this is the time when workday is done but I don't have to get puppy from day care for about an hour and a half. it is such precious time to me! but instead of surfing on line, I went out and weeded a garden. felt very proud! after that major allergy attack. picked up puppy and they told me she had pretty much played all day w/out stopping so I went home thinking oh good tired puppy! well she was so active! so wild. spring fever? she was exuberant ; )
good thing yesterday was groomer came and trimmed sweet girlcat's claws. girlcat was very vocal but she does not attack.
like many earthlings I went out to see the northern lights. our view was not that great but for some people in our area it was amazing.
today a social plan felt through, so I have all this time to do chores! I have plenty.
so many not sure where to start! I made good progress on my housecleaning on lunch yesterday but plenty to do.
here are weekend chores
check out my finances and pay all bills for this pay period
go in DD room and do a pick up put away and vaccuum
go through all the clothes that DD has piled in a chair in her room. I want to wash them over the next week and put them in a box for her to go through. I suspect most will be donated.
dust DD shelves - I won't mess with her stuff just dust
go grocery shopping
pick up an rx
buy mulch and spread in weeded garden
walk puppy
dust living room furniture
use glass cleaner on doors and mirrors
clean bathroom
go to pet store to buy puppy a new collar
tomorrow is mother's day. I won't be with DD for the first time as she is in College Town. I have made plans to meet a sister for church, visit our mom's grave, then eat lunch out by the water.

Well, I was just out there for another hour and a half! I didn't see anyone in pajama pants--but on one side there is a privacy fence so maybe you were on the other side and I couldn't see you? 
I'm really tired now--I planted 4 plants, moved 3 forking larkspur seedlings to another spot, and did a lot of weeding, plus I had to water everything because the rain forecast for overnight did not materialize. That also meant I had to spray the paver stones with the hose because the handyman had put a kind of sealing sand between them yesterday, and said the rain overnight would activate it. Well, no rain, so I activated it with the hose.
When I started planting seeds in the early spring I planted 2 Mexican sunflowers, figuring that if one germinated that was probably enough, they are very tall and wide. Well, 2 germinated, and both grew beautifully at first--I treated them the same, put in larger pots at the same time. Well, one suddenly started drying out, the leaves got skinny, and it looks like it's dying. I planted the healthy one last week, and although I was going to just let this one be I decided to plant it in another spot in the yard. Maybe being in the outside will perk it back up, or else, it will die and I'll pull it out and put something else there. Another interesting thing about gardening and plants--sometimes they don't do well and there isn't a reason that is obvious.
I need to sit and rest now, my back is complaining. I think an hour and a half is too long at one time.

I didn't get a whole lot done other than seedling care, I was going to plant a few more things this evening but it's going to be very hot tomorrow so I will wait until late tomorrow afternoon.
Good night all, see you in the morning!

Good morning everyone!
I'd forgotten to put laundry liquid
Yeah, I've done that a couple of times... 
Today and tomorrow will be hot, I went out to the yard this morning just to look at everything, it was already warm so maybe I'll just go out to water until it gets cooler in the late afternoon. Today I want to plant my 2 zucchini plants, 2 partridge pea plants, and some Gomphrena, but I'll wait until the main heat of the day is over.
TO DO:
Call decluttering client Start dishes soaking Restock water in fridge Delete 10 hard emails
