Hi Jane is Green, Hope you are functioning again soon, but some days vertical is the best - then you can be productive again.
Hi to WestsideStory. Thanks for the PM with the encouragement. I think you have great empathy for people!
Count down to tag sale - nothing like a little motivation.
TADA: Breakfast. Move the junk back to the spare room Move the junk back to the spare room Started sorting out Romance Novels (That's some creative punctuation for you.)
TODO: Finish the book sorting (mostly belonged to DD in a past life.) Clean/dust the atari set to donate. Start on Christmas decorations.

Hi, hopefulnic. Thought of you last night as I was curled up with the June Consumer Reports (yeah, I know, not-that-exciting bedtime reading !) They shopped around for four different drugs at pharmacies across the nation. They found Costco was cheaper than Wal-Mart for the four drugs they surveyed ($962 vs. $1073). AARP.com and Drugstore.com were also relatively inexpensive. Consumer Reports also talked about discount programs. Kmart's GoldK program, free to join, offers savings of up to 10 percent on every brand-name presecription or as much as 20% on generics. Walgreens Prescription Savings Club, $20-35 a year, offers savings on 5.000 brand-name drugs and a 90 day supply of more than 300 generics for $12.99 each. (However, the price at Walgreens stores for the specific four drugs they checked on was $1276, as opposed to the $972 at Costco. However, Walgreens.com ($1153) AARP.com ($1005)and CVS.com ($1177) were among the cheapest sources of medicine on line.) You don't have to pay the $50 annual membership fee to fill prescriptions at Costco. And, according to Consumer Reports, if you do join and enroll in the Costco Member Prescription Program, a free benefit for uninsured members, you can save more. Hope your little ones are well on the road to recovery, and that you will never again need this information! Back at you, MT. TADAs: 1. Important papers ready to mail 2. Cleaned breakfast dishes and pot left overnight 3. Organized container holding watches and holiday costume jewelry. Picked out some watches that need new batteries so I can do that when running errands. TODOs: 1. Watch batteries/post office/buy receipt spike/library 2. Three timed 20 minute sessions of Yucky Paperwork 3. Eat healthful salad for lunch. Hope you all have good days/afternoons/evenings! WestsideStory

This is my first time in a WIT thread... given my recent issues, I figured this would be a good place to start.
TADAS
1) Picked up Elisabeth's toys and put them away 2) Went to the bank to get a cashier's check to pay the power bill 3) Got the fixin's for supper at the grocery store
TODOS
1) fold the man-sized pile of laundry on the couch. I'm about halfway through that now. 2) Put the clothes away 3) Fold the blankets by the couch
I can do this. Small bites.

A "gotta hold off on anything else" kind of problem
Ta dah * Bought Draino-like stuff for sink * Realized it wasn't in my groceries when I got home * Swore a few times, then got over it * Plunge like hell- watch sink water turn grey and get icky * Pour hot water down sink. Watch it do nothing. * Plunge like hell * Go online and look up suggestions * Plunge again just in case * Go to hardware store and get enzyme sink declogger * Follow direction and use it.
To do * See results in 6 hours.
