Throw it out Thursday PWYC

Post by Lady Maverick »

Do you have anything to get rid of today?
Trash
Decluttered items
Bad memories

Let's give each other encouragement to get rid of the items that we don't need or doesn't bring us joy.

Good morning

Another day of appointments.
12:00 - DH diabetic shoe fitting
1:15 - DH eye appointment
4:00 - DD14 appointment with dietitian

Plus the alarms for normal time events

7:35 - take DD14 to school
3:30 - Get DD14 from school

Plus extra people here -

Since we have 2 appointments in the city today, I will shop for items on our Buy This list. Maybe. I am reluctant to shop in the city if the stores are packed with snowpocalypse craze. If the store parking lots are packed, then I will just keep on driving and shop our local grocery store instead. I am willing to pay the 20% or so more to bypass that nonsense.

for years I had a card that started my day with throwing out trash, after basic morning cards. I haven't done that in long while and I am so happy d lady that you mentioned it today- I need to make a new card, again, "room by room check - throw out trash"
it is always a joy to be here with you!

Hi!

It's Compost Thursday, so the large compost bin is at the end of the driveway. I was ever so slightly late for the recycling truck. That's okay because there is no limit on recycling so I can put it out next week. I'm going to have to start setting an alarm to get it out because the new company comes earlier that the previous one. Maybe if I hadn't stayed up reading until almost 1 a.m. I would have gotten it out in time. :lol:

I was up at seven, my stomach is a little off and I think I slept poorly. I seem to have been achy and awake a lot. Dh is home from his workout so TV is on - house was so quiet before!

I have my 2 p.m. workout, and some errands to run while I'm out today. Bank for HOA, temple, shred to UPS (dh didn't do earlier in the week.) Still need to do a bunch of stuff from yesterday.

Vet's office called that dMillie's bloodwork was great, I need to call and book her teeth cleaning/scaling (teeth are bad!) and need to get urine sample too. (Getting the sample may be difficult....)

I have invited neighbors over for Sunday afternoon to take excess stamping stuff! Now to get dh to help me bring it all downstairs soon.

Good Morning Ladies!
I could see the Northern lites again the clouds sort of glow in the pre dawn hours.
I've done my 1st part of my morning routine stuff.

Later I have a batch of yarn I received as a birthday gift that
will be donated lovely colors but it does not have enough body
to it and I did not like the way it felt. So it will be going.
Someone else will enjoy it. The donation center said they have
lots of folks wanting yarn so I just need to take it out to the shed / truck
and remember when I go there next time. Got that bagged up with the others!

Yesterday the bridge was stuck up for a while on the monthly test.
It goes up and down to let bigger vessels in & out. There are other bridges now so
alternate routes are available. It was at early morning rush hour a 20 min. delay.

I'm on the 3rd hour of my day and am pleased how things are going so far. Steady progress brings me joy.

I'm disappointed in the glade products I've tried over the past several months. The Automatic Spray Air Freshener and the plug-ins have not made a difference in how our home smells, so I've decided to THROW THEM OUT. Instead, I am putting a hand-held manual Febreze Air freshener spray bottle in each room to spray after it has been swept/picked up each day. After using the Febreze, I notice how good it smells when I enter the room later.

DH has already asked me twice this morning when we’re leaving. After answering him both times, I wrote it down on a 3x5" card for him to hold. When DH knows we have plans, he starts pacing, ready to go, even if I’ve told him it’ll be a couple of hours. I usually try not to tell him until about 30 minutes before we actually leave.
