Good morning Rosebud & everybody! I slept well and through the night last night! Feelin' good this AM! <imagine thumbs up smiley here> TaDas: * Got up * Got Kitty settled with her salmon - she ended up eating 3 servings yesterday in addition to a little of their dry cat food I leave out for them all the time. So I guess that's not too bad - "breakfast, lunch, and dinner". * Made the bed - completely this time - after Simba woke up, jumped down, and stretched. * Washed my face & hands * Got Diet Dr. Pepper * Took meds * Drank glass of water * Ate snack Have a good day, everybody! * Bid farewell & a safe trip home to my uncle during a break from my work * Worked today's shift * Fed & watered cats * Gathered up all household trash & deposited it in garbage cart * Wheeled garbage cart to curb for today's pickup * Gathered up recycling & put in trunk of car for drop-off at recycling place next time I go * Put new liners in all trash cans * Rinsed the bowl, spoon, and cup in the sink that my uncle used during his entire visit (that's just the way he is) and put them in the dishwasher * Fixed lunch Hatdiva, I'm so sorry to hear about the tornado! How scary for you! We had 2 bad hail storms and a tornado that did significant damage here in May. Even with insurance, the repairs are going to be very expensive. My thoughts are with you. So good to see everybody else doing so well today! I'll be back later! * Ate lunch * Rinsed lunch dishes & put in dishwasher * Brushed my teeth * Called Mom * Took an afternoon nap ( was feeling so sleepy, could barely stay awake - I'm feeling refreshed now ) * Worked on project (got rather absorbed in it) * Got Kitty some more salmon * Made dinner * Ate dinner * Rinsed dinner dishes & loaded in dishwasher * Tidied kitchen * Rolled garbage cart back in from curb * Threw away a box * Engrossed in project * Quick trip to post office & convenience store * More work on project * Brushed teeth I need to go to bed but am not really feelin' like it! Ugh!

Saturday night a tornado hit a little more than a mile from me...80+ mph winds here at the house. Couldn't sleep before, ended up in the basement for an hour, and couldn't sleep later so yesterday I was banging into walls. I'm a bit better this morning so I will attempt some modest chores here. Contemplating the possibility of the news media standing in front of your house with all the front walls missing is disturbing...especially considering what it looks like now. TO DO'S coffee, breakfast, read newspapers load dishwasher and run clear counters wash pots and pans and put away quick pick up livingroom clear entryway vac entryway and powder room take shovels, garden tools to garage change garage light pick up any 5 items I know where to put away 1gather 3 items for Parrot's purge 1gather returns from clothes shopping Personal fluff walk on gym track

Good afternoon everone,
I've found it impossible to get into/onto internet and need to get someone to fix it which I can't afford so if I disappear that will be why.
Done: up prayer and reflection dealt with emails and post washed up and cleared up from yesterday found an organisation which might be able to help me fix laptop worked on compensation claim to landlords and found all of my notes which I could not find from the file name on my list of files - this is a blessing and makes the whole job much easier and I still need to finish it. cooked food for freezer and week meds
Todo: work on compensation claim to try to finish it email/phone friend after yesterday's 8+ mile walk not sure what else

(((Rose))) here's to a good night's sleep. I slept on the couch last night with my son, and would you believe? He didn't wake up once all night long. hatdiva, we've been dealing with the storms, too. Good luck. The one thing it's done has motivated me to fix up our basement. And great way to remember the purge! You sound like you're making a lot of progress. Have fun ... wherever you're going, eagle. rexroth, hopefully your net issues get worked out soon. That's always a major pain. 8+ mile walk?? That is amazing! As for me, this morning I've: taken the dog out put on his flea medication sequestered him to the bathroom while it dries Today I want to: finally clear the piles of stuff from when I cleaned take in some laundry and convince DH to order that dumpster (or get the okay to order it myself )

Hi Everyone... Y'all all have done great today! RTJ--hope your Mom will be well soon. Rexroth--I hope that you can resolve internet issues...
Tadas: *took 4 bags of trash to outside can *took 5 bags of recyclables to outside can *put 8 empty boxes (broken down) into outside recycle can *made my bed *dressed2shoes **took DD to vet's office so she could "shadow" the vets there. ***finished filling out several forms for DD's Girl Scout trip ***called Girl Scout Council in MI re: DD's Girl Scout Destination (Wilderness First Responder) ****called doctor's office & scheduled check up for DD *****called airline several times... re: DD's flights...United was terrible! They had changed a couple of her flight numbers, times (just minor, but still!), and 1 seat assignment. First told me nothing was changed & that they would notify me if there was a change. Then, since I had questions about Unaccompanied Minors... the person I was talking to had trouble answering my questions about that & had to keep putting me on hold & finally said she would transfer me to someone else. Well, as soon as I got on phone with that person, He wanted to review my itinerary as some flight number's had changed.... ARGGHH! This person said he would email the flight itinerary to me. Well, I got an email but nothing with the flight numbers & times... just receipt for purchase of the ticket.. More ARRGGHH!!! So, had to call them again to make sure I had printout with the changes.. Asked for Manager & got a superviser. Very nice. He sent the right email to me... *printed out itinerary *researched ACT test on internet *called re: ACT test *picked up DD *took DS to Boy Scout meeting *trained with puppy some today *put load of laundry in washer *moved that load into dryer *put another load in the washer *washed some pots, pans, skillets & a few other dishes *put away hand-washed stuff from drainboard.
More tadas: *washed all the rest of the dishes, pots, pans, lids...seemed like it took forever. *washed 1 sink counter *washed top of stove *let dogs out & then wiped 8 paws *let DangelDog out again & wiped 4 more paws...didn't let puppy out again altho she wanted to follow other dog out... *looked over DS's list/schedule he made for himself tomorrow. What a refreshing surprise to see this! I did not know he was going to do this...
