[blessedw2]

card file not done yesterday or today yet it's 5:38 pm. no dailies... furumph!
ddolder had to go to the er early early this morning - she was in a lot of pain which is so unlike her to complain. she is beginning to feel better. we got home around 9:30 this morning and after breakfast I went back to sleep (until 2pm can you believe) I didn't go to bed until 12:30/1am so getting a few hours sleep I could understand. Poor dd hadn't slept at all for 2 days.

ddyounger is coming home tomorrow so I am saying my prayers for her safe flight!!!!
she leaves london around 4am our time/10 am london time and should arrive in chicago around 12:45pm so saying lots of prayers!!!

I exercised already, had dinner/lunch
time to figure out calories exactly and mark them down
next job put dvds all of them together and cull what I don't want. I have one space for them now that I will put them in.

after: my laundry
put away from kitchen/stuff from house down in basement.
next goal: dejunk pencil drawer

I still have to vacuum ddyoungers room and basement

[Harriet]

Awwww... ... hope your (dd) feels better by now, blessed.

Won't you be happy about 1:00 p.m. tomorrow!

Nancy reminds me I haven't made deviled eggs in a while and should - good for this weather.

Well, the recent guest is gone and the bday party is over. Many things have been put off so I need to turn my attention back to the cardfile box. I have a request in to dstepdil to help me with my ddad's house again, but it doesn't look like she will have time. Houseguests there come this next weekend, so my work is cut out. Routine will be the ticket.

[Nancy]

Ex. = digging for small patio expansion. x
errands w. h. got a few things for patio project and replaced tile in the BBQ pit.
Gardening x
Vacuum x
mix up cookie dough for pot luck tomorrow I'll bake 'em in the a.m. before we leave.

[blessedw2]

look at you two: dnancy even making cookies and dharriet entertaining!!!
how lucky for the family and friends in both your lives!

yes, dharriet, I used to hate routine and many times lol still do. but that card file especially the dailies seems to keep more things in control. how can you not love that (lol this morning I would love to veg again - like yesterday)

woke at 4:00 am to phone call that dd is flying soon.
yesterday I went 415 calories over my daily amount - eating in range can be grrrrr, growl, frumph, roar etc.

job I didn't finish yesterday: my laundry, matching the dvd things and tossing.

[Nancy]

Found laundry that had now gotten in the dryer last night so put that over before bed.
So today I need to get that folded. Glad I found it just in the nick of time!

Date night card x
Home repair fit it card x H. cleaned gutter spouts and reattached one of the spouts.
Enlarge patio today we are taking a rest day.

Before the end of the mo. take trash to the dump in the utility trailer needs to happen.
Soon we will move the camper pull trailer to the front of the house as we need access to the back yard where it is parked for unloading gravel and for the concrete truck to come when they have extra from the job h. has now. Wondering if we will have twice the fun after it is twice as big? LOL! The wood after the patio will be re-used for chicken pen, or support frame for the cooking area counter thing we use. It's a heavy marble looking stuff I got from a yard sale for the
small Webber and is very handy.
