Good afternoon, guys and dolls! I am technically on vacation in my hometown, but I brought a few projects and there's work to do here.
TA-DA 1. Double-checked receipts against statement; shredded them 2. Filled out budget book from expenses on the trip here 3. Washed/oiled wooden paneling and cupboards 4. Folded laundry and distributed it 5. Helped move outdoor furniture 6. Weeded flowerbed (and made note to bring own tools and gloves next time to finish the job!)
1. Send a reply to latest contractor's bid 2. Add up last month's expenses (not looking forward to it) 3. Meal prep for family dinner
Going to bed now. Have a great night!

Hello All! I've been back from vacation, but picked up Covid while in London. I've been very fatigued with fevers the past few days. It's been difficult to even get out of bed. I went to the ER and got some fluids administered yesterday. I unloaded and loaded the dishwasher and run it on Sunday when I got home (DH was home, but apparently doesn't know how to wash dishes). This morning has been my first time in several days that I could actually do anything about the mess that has been building up since Sunday.
ta-da: Emptied the dishwasher (from the load that I ran on Sunday) Loaded the dishwasher from the overflowing sinks Sponged down a piece of luggage, trying to make it look a little less dirty.
to-do: Take frequent breaks Water the houseplants that are still alive after over 2 weeks of neglect Finish unpacking Go through 2 weeks worth of mail. I'm not even sure where DH has been putting it. My garlic is overdue for harvesting. I didn't have very good success based in whet I harvested before I left, but live in an area where it's challenging to grow stuff.

Hi Ally So sorry you got Covid, and so sorry you returned to a less than perfect home situation. I do hope you had a nice time in London, however. Nice day here, not too hot yet, though that is supposed to change over the weekend. done: -worked in the yard for about an hour and a half -divided grocery things and froze some -made nice breakfast, with second cup of cocoa on the way Todo (no real plans for July 4): -work on crafty project -maybe sow some seeds -water some plants in the back

Welcome back, Ally ! I'm glad you were able to get out of bed today, and that you got the ER fluids yesterday. (Sorry about the mess you came back to.) I hope you had a wonderful time, met some nice people, and saw some great sights. Had meds and made bed. Started dishes soaking. Stopped rubbing my eyes and put in eyedrops. ![](http://storage.proboards.com/1879832/images/kqYoGoPUwfTibuMR0Mpl.gif) Figure out if I'm going to visit daughter. She delayed invitation--next week instead, maybe. thing 1 thing 2 thing 3

BetsyMarie and goldenthreads, I didn't even mention the mountain of dirty laundry I came home to ![lol](//storage.proboards.com/1879832/images/70gKR226h9rBn4CaD0Tc.gif) ! (It looks like he went out and bought new underwear because he ran out!) Yes, I had a good time in London (although one day it was too hot to be in a crowded museum with no air conditioning.) We also spent time in Yorkshire where we met some distant relatives that we didn't know existed 6 weeks ago. (The guy and my dad are 4th cousins, and his niece was a 5th cousin to us.) Then we went to Scotland and joined a hiking tour. It was beautiful, but was designed for people who really wanted to move. I prefer a slower pace and stopping to enjoy to views. Then we back to London for a few days. ta-da: I emptied the dishwasher and then ran a new load (re-adding a few things that didn't get clean the first time through.) Put a few things for my daughter together so I remember to take them with me on Saturday. I tried to harvest some of the garlic, but it's a bit late to harvest properly (stems were already dried up and disintegrating.) I was getting bitten by mosquitos, and I started feeling very unwell. so I've been mostly taking it easy since then.

I've been feeling sluggish and unmotivated >> doing way too little. Decided part of the problem is probably being a little dehydrated, so I'm going to make a point of keeping cold water on hand and drinking it. ![::tada-1::](https://storage.proboards.com/1879832/images/ElqtgaKypYWeNbzGtFTV.gif) Yesterday: Washed dishes. This morning: Put away dishes. Filled a pitcher of filtered water and put it in fridge. ![](http://storage.proboards.com/1879832/images/kqYoGoPUwfTibuMR0Mpl.gif) Do weeding. Change recurring donation method.Vacuum living room and bedroom. Find insurance policy on messy table or online (didn't file it ).

Hi all. I'm just waiting for the heat to arrive... Ack! We are under an excessive heat warning. It's fortunately not too bad yet, but I can feel it coming.
Done: -opened windows very early and put on fans -closed windows as the temperature has risen -was able to work outside for about an hour early while still pleasant -watered in the back
Todo: -hand watering in the back -go into the 2 rooms that stay cool longer, and find something to do (there is lots) -?
