I hope you had a great day yesterday d Nancy. chili mmmm sounds great.

yesterday was a lost day.

today - first on the list: cat litter , laundry put away
ran 2 errands which filled up my car - target and pet store.

12:08 I have time to work in bathrooms - haven't been in the cabinet for a while and decided to clean it out. good thing. filled it with toilet paper so powder room is clean.

2 drawers to pass over

dh is in a cranky mood but I can't blame in. The front room is the one place he expects clean. the dogs slept on the cushions so dh had to wash the couch and chair - he won't put covers on them - then dd's brought down all the photos and left them on the coffee table - so he is cranky; so I am trying to not take it personally and just stay out of his way.

thank you d nancy.
Wishing you a great day

I am trying very hard to have a peaceful Thanksgiving for my family aka a clean home and be ready ahead of time as best as I can. I remember my d very organized sil (lovely person) said that everyone thinks it is easy but she consistently works hard at her home and her life, and it look effortless. She said she does it over and over again is because it's too much work to catch up. Actually makes sense. I find it hard sometimes all the work. But my d sil also dejunks consistently.

I spent too much time on the computer this morning. so...
had to clean 2 shelves in refrigerator done
laundry: wash dry put away (I always seem to think I am done after drying the laundry )

On list:

PRINT GIFT EXCHANGE LIST (MY FAMILY'S WISH LIST) FOR TOMORROW

Car clean out and get gas
put extra cloths in there (just in case)
put items to take with on counter and have a box ready so things don't spill

get cloths together for tomorrow and Friday,
money together for Friday
clean out purse
get dd older some money to have with her
finish gift for tomorrow
make sweet potatoes today
dinner tonight: simple crescent hot dogs, veggies and ranch dip, make breakfast scones for tomorrow morning
Hair cut appointment 10:15 dd younger therapist appointment for back at 4:15
sheets changed as dd older is coming home

You both seem peaceful and prepared, blessed and Nancy.

I'll be using 4 x 6 cards in a different way. Bought blank unlined ones and will fold them once for folded gift tags. Some of my large stickers will find a use now and should make them look great. The pack will last for years if I like this idea as much as I think I will. This is the size I use for my mini-photo-album turned into a portable cardfile holder, so there will be plenty of uses for them.
