Done:
Bible
Weigh
Breakfast
Inside pets fed
10 minutes closet - mostly hanging clothes that were in the bathroom which led me to
10+ minutes bathroom - wiping down counter, tossing empty lotion container and replacing it with a full one, filling crystal vase with chorus for Lily bc she so fancy
Idk how long in bedroom bc I set timer for :10 but somehow moved the hour to 1 so it never went off and I just kept working thinking this is the longest 10 minutes ever - dusted empty bottom shelf of bookcase and started moving larger grown up books there in order of subject (the bottom 3 rows are children’s books easy to grab for height challenged youngsters, moving those to mom’s), so now bottom row is college, survival, health, landscape, baby…, top is Native American, Bibles and religious books, paper maps and countries. The remaining shelves are still in chaos for now.
Put found objects where they belong
Break for lunch and water
Todays meals logged
Litter
Wipe down kitchen
Boil eggs for tuna salad
Dw loaded and running
Sink shined
Opened gate so bathroom cats could get out, Daisy went and shut it like a boss, she doesn’t like them being in her territory
Walk dogs
Play ball
Mop
Wash mop head
Make tuna salad
Make deviled eggs
Add tomato, pickle, low salt pretzel thins and sunkissed ritz (extra crispy) and call it supper
Clean up kitchen
Open and spread new rug in living room (old one rolled up to go to Hollywood)
Cinnamon candles burning
Brushed Toby and Jeremy
Watered greens planted in yard
That’s probably it for me but I’ll update if I get a burst of energy.

Re: Gudrid Thorbjarnardóttir Thursday @ TDD - C&C
I have had what feels like a very successful day of errands.
Smile*Lee, I am convinced that piles of dishes are proof of spontaneous generation.
Bama, I swear that the whole world has Daylight Savings Time backward. You get an extra hour of sunlight at the end of your day with DST. I suspect that a good portion of the people who are campaigning to end DST would be in for a rude shock when their extra hour of sun disappears all year round.
The funeral sounds lovely, Kittykatt, and a comfort to the bereaved.
Does flapjack have a different meaning in England? I'm picturing you picking up and depositing pancakes around the city.
LOL, helia, for Germane the disappointment has just gone on and on today. Ah, well, tomorrow is another day. And we have a new dog food to try to see if it is more pleasing to her palate.
Kittykatt, I'm okey with passing through life without my label too. In my generation, if you were visibly different at birth, you'd be separated from society and put in an institution. If you got through that part okey but got labelled retarded (the label for developmental problems and autism) you'd be separated from society before starting school. If you made it that far but had issues that disrupted the class, you might be allowed to stay in the same school, but in a special class of differently abled children. Someone who went through that stream told me that they didn't focus on giving those kids the same education; the goal was to get them out of the classroom so that the "normal" children could get an education. Parents fought against having their children tested or labelled in order to protect their futures. By the time I was an adult, things were already changing. The institutions were shut down, but without supports in society to help the people released from them.
Gma, I'm glad that the printing went so well, and that the weather is cooperating with you for the plants.
Bama, you can have all of my bursts of energy if you want them, as I just want to play computer games and watch TV. And maybe put some laundry away.
Thursday
Cleaned up after dog
Washed slow cooker liner
Washed some dishes
Tried to sign up for online talks from The Walrus: the links don't work.
Tried from my phone: still does not work.
Tried to organize purchases from one store. Got some fed up with their website that I cancelled that errand.
Managed to get the link to work and signed up for their first talk next week.
Stopped fighting with the computer and shut it down.
Put away some of the dry laundry.
Tried to charge the tire pump.
Searched for the charger. Found one, but it appears to be for the globe.
Spiffed self
Papered dog pen
Settled Germane in pen with treat and probiotic
Went to animal hospital. Bought a flat of food. Got one can of another brand that she might like better.
Went to the clothing store to return the pants that don’t fit and look for jeans that don’t have holes in them. Hurray! Found two pairs that fit and that I like.
Life Pro Tip: I now shop in the petite section because I don’t care if they are flood pants; I just don’t want them dragging through the wet grass.
High on my success, I was about to head to the library to return the books when I realized that I hadn’t brought them with me.
Headed home to get library books
Spotted our food truck open. I thought that they had closed for the season. Mmmm… spicy wrap…
Brought shopping home, grabbed the library books, and left without letting my astonished and disapproving dog out of her pen.
Went to library and dropped off books
Picked up another one
Went to food truck and got a tandoori paneer wrap
Let my good girl out of her pen. She hadn’t touched her food, but ate once I got home.
CUOP while enjoying my treat

Re: Gudrid Thorbjarnardóttir Thursday @ TDD - C&C
Hi all. I guess I've been busy. I could have posted at some point just feeling a little like I'm slowly making progress but not finding motivation to post much for some reason.
Sunday was church and then went to the kids place after lunch. And band in the evening. Monday was mostly work. Tuesday was work... groceries.. supper... and sister prayer group. Wednesday i took ds to school and went to dad's to meet and get the house keeper set up there. I think once she gets a bit of a routine it will be good. Then bible study and I just took the afternoon off. Today was work and then our annual shoebox packing party. Oh amidst that all ds had his first practices . Another new one. Wrestling. And basketball started today. That sounds like a busy season.
Cleaning started yesterday and I think tomorrow mom starts with the day program at the care home. Some rapid changes cause dad is admitting he can't do it all anymore.
Gma when is the funeral. Maybe you said. I'm sure it will be just right. And I agree it's great your friend is cared for so you can relax about her.
Smile lee. There you are. Definitely busy building house. I was wondering what you were up to.
Helian how is little I and everyone doing at home. Happy but big adjustments . Oohh I hope your back doesn't cause too many issues. That doesn't sound good.
Anyways I'm falling asleep trying to type. Almost bedtime.
