Hey, great minds think alike and all that -- working with
Harriet, I also washed & dried a load of kitchen towels so that I could count an easy task as done even if I didn't accomplish anything else all day.
Other things I managed to finish today:
dishes
prepared 3 meals including 1 new recipe (turned out to be a keeper)
fed the cat multiple times (glad she still has an appetite for such an old girl)
took a nap
several rotations of 5 minute pick up and put away
um ... watched a few short online videos?
I did not technically
finish as a project, but spent a few hours going through more boxes in my sewing & crafts room. Results:
1) I have filled a very large shopping bag with fabrics to put on the freebie table at my next sewing group meeting. I'm determined that those fabrics will not be coming back into my house. If no one takes them at the next meeting, they will go from my car directly into the trash bin.
2) 1 kitchen trash bag full of trash
3) 1 small box of papers for the recycle bin, plus a few flattened cardboard boxes.
4) Migrated keepers into smaller boxes. As I mentioned before, I'm working to eliminate large cardboard boxes. I need to be able to lift everything I'm keeping up onto shelves.
4) Found some yarn that I can use right away to knit hats for the library's hat tree in November. The yarn colors I found will work for teen boys and men. Most of the donations come in for young children so it will be good to have at least a few for adults.
I'm done for the night since I have to work tomorrow. This afternoon I took a call from a coworker who wanted me to be aware of an ongoing problem with a patron that I might have to deal with tomorrow. Oh joy.
