I was out earlier to do some errands. Empty streets. Empty parking lots. Empty drug stores. Even the bank was empty. It was great. Took my clean car out of the garage and put it right back in as soon as I got home.
Then the trouble started. I needed to find 2 very important pieces of paperwork ASAP! I went through the 2017 box. I went through the 2016 box. I touched every piece of paper in both boxes. I absolutely cleared off the horrid mess of a desk. I got to the point where I just gave up and decided to call our accountant to ask his advice. He asked if he could call me back in 5 minutes. I said sure. Hung up and decided to look through the very few pieces of paper in the desk drawer which is less than 1 inch high. Took out the entire tiny pile of paper that was in there and GUESS what I found. Both pieces. Then my accountant called back and I told him what had happened. Then the bank called and I was able to tell the person that I found the paperwork and I was told I could bring it in before noon tomorrow.
Because I worked on that for most of the afternoon, now I have piles of paper all over the ironing board right behind me. I have 3 boxes on the floor and a lot of stuff on the board. I also have a very messy kitchen because dh wanted me to make a pork chop recipe that came up on his FB page yesterday. I didn't have any chops, so I made the recipe using chicken legs. OH my goodness!! It was so good!! BUT the mess in my kitchen is just horrid. Lots of flour that got on to the counter and the stove and dishes everywhere.
I am going to load the dishwasher and the sink.
