Tuesday Trying

Postby LadyMaverick » Tue Apr 25, 2017 7:49 am

Mistakes are proof that you are trying.

Who wants to make some mistakes today? :shock: :lol:

I don't try to make mistakes but I seem to be a master of doing it. I have become quite comfortable making mistakes. I do it so often that it just seems normal. I can't say that I am pleased to make mistakes, but I try to think of them as eliminating a possibility. There are always more possibilities in any situation. I just need to keep trying until I find the right one. Just don't quit.

I'm up. I washed up almost all of yesterday's dishes while making my tea.

I have to leave in an hour. Today dgs and I will go grocery shopping. His parents will come along too.

Nice of you and dgs to let his parents come along, Kathryn. Enjoy it! :D

Was going to get up a little before 7 and let myself fall back asleep. After all the dozing and feeling rather not with it yesterday, I slept pretty well. Just waiting a few more minutes so I can take the rest of my meds and get on with my day. I see a grocery trip in my future as well. Want to get going on that this morning -so I don't hit a wall again.

Took a nice long walk last evening. The weather was absolutely perfect. Not going to be so in the next few days -going to 90 or more. AC will be my friend.

I've been pecking away at emptying our bedroom as much as possible. Today I think I'll 'try' to get some things packed and move them to the garage. Feeling not so overwhelmed by this process at this point anyway. Know there's things that I simply won't be able to move at all nor will I even 'try' -that WOULD be a mistake!

Off I go>>>>>>>>>
Begun is half done -SO! JUST BEGIN!!

hi d dee! have a good day! trying is good! You and I have the same thought process.

actually getting off my franny - my list (what a bad 4 letter word - just kidding :D - is done. Errands and phone calls listed.

I am falling behind my old french class by a week - I am going to have to kick some language around to get caught up before it becomes overwhelming.

My day: I will see what I get done: feeling positive but realistic

dr. 9:30
phone calls: sailing, dentist,
errands: stop by vet to pick up dogs medicine

dinner
dishes
duds
dailies

pack patterns and send
finish building closets
hopeful: empty two front window boxes of old dirt
bring down dd younger's hanging cloths and put in built closets
take her boxes from the dining room and put in 3 season room after washing that corner of the room
Set up sailing stuff for dd because she comes back from Florida and goes to work the next day -

walk / dogs
transfer records (health)
continue packing dd younger's room

French
Harmonica (didn't play yesterday)

future: clean out music in front room (it's become a pile - up to my knee) put away and keep what dd younger is currently playing.

Right now I will be trying to get the garage door to close! I took garbage out earlier and now the little viewer thingie must be not be aligned (I looked around for more to toss) so the door reverses back up. And my garage is a mess! I don't want the neighbors seeing it! :lol:

Dd has left in a huff for work. I was "making her late" by asking her to get her clothes off the floor in my laundry room. :roll:

Slow day again today, I need to get some motivation for doing things other than genealogy these days. Need to do a desk day also.

Dh and I are heading out on Thurs a.m. for a quick long weekend beach trip. We'll be using a condo that belongs to a friend of his. DH is in quite a mood, his assistant announced yesterday that she was giving him two weeks notice. She is going to be singing (gospel, and in churches) more. Her long-time musical partner died in Jan so she feels this is a good time to make changes. Dh is dying right now about losing her.

Got the garage door closed, thank goodness. We're missing the neighborhood garage sale this weekend. Lots to get rid of in there.
