Good morning! Lennon, thanks for starting the thread!
It's another cool, grey morning here, it will get sunny and warmer later but right now it's beautiful. I went outside for some weeding and planted 2 plants.
I woke up at 2:30 and couldn't fall back to sleep, then at 4 an ambulance drove up a few doors away from me, and I realized it was in front of the house where the family I know lives. However, I remembered that there was an elderly man with medical problems that lived across the street from them, and that's where the paramedics were going. At this point I was wide awake so I stayed up and got dressed.
I haven't had my shower yet since I knew I was going to work in the muddy yard, so I still have to do that. And have breakfast.
Diane

Good Morning All...I am enjoying that delicious first cup of coffee and I am contemplating my day
We are to get some pretty bad weather today but I think later in the day - after 3pm
I am trying to plan my week. On weds I am meeting some friends for lunch, so on that day I will load up the car and return my bottles and cans. I have several bags of material recycling that I think I will drop off tomorrow
My trash can is not full - so I have to gather three or four more bags to go. Shredding - I am behind on my shredding....
I will first enjoy and finish my coffee

Good morning ohblondie and reve!
I'm doing PEEPing this morning, I talked to my decluttering client and I went out to the yard for a long weeding session. I also drilled holes in the dirt for several stakes for the problem corner in the yard. Next project will be to go out and tie up the asters which are already drooping, but I think it might be because that corner has been ignored until now and the bindweed is pulling the stems down! My yard waste can is just about full, but the pickup will be a day late this week because of the holiday.

I went back outside and tied up some of the plants and did more weeding. I can't decide about some of them--should I pull them out or tie them up. I had no idea asters reproduced so quickly. I think I started out with 3 plants and now the 3 corners of the yard where I planted them are filled with asters. Which is fine, but I need some space for other plants.
I think I may have heard a cicada, it sounded like it was coming from the yard behind the alley. One cicada...
I also decluttered the 1st floor except for the kitchen. I will rest for a while and then go down and try to clean up some things in that room.

I cleaned off two more bottles and added more to soak I went out and purchased some rope for the residents to wrap around the bottles. I also grabbed some embellishments
I did some pruning out back, I just needed to be outside!! Tossed the tennis balls with Callie for a bit
I read my book. I cooked us each a hamburger before the rain
Brought my dad his clean clothes. Folded the LS shirts and put them on a top shelf
I am looking for more items to bag for recycling
The mattress was picked up and is gone
We have a tri fold room divider thing that we use outside. We attached it to the railing on the deck so that it doesn't blow over. It gives us a bit of privacy from the neighbors
I have a huge pile of bags and such in front of the stove. I dealt with three of them, emptied them out and folded and put the bags away. Girl scout cookies are headed to DS at work. That will be another bag gone!

Hello scholar!
I've run out of energy, so pretty soon I'll get ready for bed. I did declutter the kitchen--there are a couple of projects in there but that's okay, they are in progress. Upstairs doesn't look bad except for one table that has miscellaneous things on it, I will work on that tomorrow.
Good night everyone, see you in the morning!

Enjoying another delicious cup of coffee this morning!
I helped my mom shower last night and dealt with a few things for her
I am taking her to visit my dad today so I need to deal with a few things this am
1) trip to storage to drop off catering things 2) stop at Joanne Fabric to look for bee embellishments 3) stop at drug store to get eye drops
I did not get a bag of trash out last night so I need to double down today - though I have a meeting tonight so I need to triple down tomorrow
There is no time like the present so off I go

Good morning ohblondie!
I did get confirmation from the handyman that he will be here tomorrow, hopefully to finish up everything except back porch painting which will be done later.
Today I will do some cleaning to get ready, other than that I'll try to get some yard work done. Even though the temperature is not hot, the sun out there is bad already.
I also want to move seedlings to the two grow light tables downstairs since there's room on them now, I'm going to need the upstairs table to put the second bird cage on at first.

good morning everypony!
I didn't sleep well last night so will probably go back to bed. Haven't done anything this morning except make coffee and scroll. Its chilly but will get warm this afternoon. I need to do laundry and get the summer stuff out of the attic. I'm struggling to get dressed!
carry on, I'll be back.

Good morning scholar!
I went outside and planted something, then transplanted two things. It was too hot so that's all I did. Luckily, the ground is still damp so I don't need to water yet, and more rain is possible today.
