Good morning/ good afternoon, Smileei, Laura and L.Ann!

Smilelee, I'm glad the airport drop off went well.

L.Ann, what a good idea to divide exercise in up into doable chunks. Enjoy the library with Little Bit!

Laura, I'm glad you have help to look after your DMum.

I had a very nice walk through the valley park in the sun , especially as the birds were all singing. I met A and C, who were walking their little dogs (Bertie and Ruby) and we stopped and had a lovely chat. I'm now back home, where I've done a little in my front garden, and now I'm having lunch out here on my folding chair and enjoying the sun.

Housework is calling me this afternoon. :lol:

Pick up my footprints! (Thank you, RRose!) What does this mean specifically for me? 0ff the top of my head: PUPA things out of place before I go to bed, PUPA tools I have used to do the housework, wipe down kitchen surfaces when I've finished there. Put my breakfast bowl and mug in DW. In other words, pick after myself! WIP
Email A with my thoughts and answers to questions, and apologies for the meeting I can't attend. Do this TODAY
Make list of outstanding jobs on the house and send to Handyman A. DF PM, who has been mentoring him through some difficult turns his life has taken, thinks he may be ready to start some jobs again. (If he doesn't reply in a reasonable time, or doesn't want to do anything, then I'll look for someone else, but I would prefer not to do that). Off the top of my head, clean gutters and the swan neck on the downpipes where "stuff" tends to accumulate, clean cladding back and front and downpipes, and short return wall as well. Replace the bit of mortar that's fallen out of the edge of the roof (I think its called the verge?) , fix dripping kitchen tap ( new washer?), sort out cabinet that wobbles, fix garage guttering that's loose at one end and bending down. More as I think of them? πŸ˜€ ( Waiting for a reply)
Take up and hem those thick winter curtains for the kitchen
Book eye test for me
Find picture hanging equipment for DH
Sort prints and put in albums (this will probably be an activity to do on wet days!) WIP
Think about setting up Guardianship for F,J and M - looked on Cats' Protection, I need their microchip numbers, approximate DOB, colour and markings and useful information about them. Bookmark link with local recommended solicitors (also ask DF CW?)
Change health centres to the one nearest us? On hold ATM , but I'll leave it on my list so I don't forget.

Waving to Peaches (yay, you made it!), Smile*Lee, kittykatt, laura, L,Ann and vergerswife (long time no see!)

Today was indeed the day of Terri's check in the hospital, and I am happy to announce she's cast-less! Still on crutches, no weight on the foot till next check (two weeks from now). She was so happy to have a nice bath - and scratch her leg :-)
I still feel like *** (you know the song from West Side Story, I feel pretty? Well I keep singing I feel s***y! because that's just the person I am:-) I have another in person meeting tomorrow, so I won't be able to stay home till Thursday, and I am thinking I'll be fine by then, ugh! (I am not sneezing or anything, just feeling generally unwell and my eyes are runny and my nose is stuffy). A nap was in order when I got home, but I am back in the game now!

TaDas
- morning madness
- drive DS to the city
- work day (many meetings)
- stopped by bookstore on my way from an off-premises committee meeting to buy a therapeutical cookbook (I've discovered that buying cookbooks makes me happy, so every couple months, I just go and buy one if I've had a rough day or a string thereof, and trust me, this one was well deserved!)
- pharmacy to get more cold meds
- dollar store for battery operated lights for DBD's room, because she needs them to not sleep in the dark
- nap
- morning routine
- midday routine
- load of colors running
- master bathroom cleaned
- chat with the kids

ToDos
- clean master bedroom
- start dinner
- afternoon routine
- chase kids to do homework

Getting here late. The day has been busy. KSJ get together until 12:35, payroll meeting 1-2, census bureau phone call until 3:35. This is legit; we were randomly chosen for the census bureau. We were called and asked various Qs on various topics for 4 months in a row. I didn't know half the answers this time; we haven't done our taxes yet and I don't know our investments or how much we spend on healthcare. :roll: And I certainly don't know M's financial situation; eventually, she came up and talked to the census bureau guy herself. This employee was also hard to understand, unfortunately. The others were easier. And the last call was only 20 minutes, so I was hoping for the same this time around. Every question is asked for dh, myself, and M -- so I have to answer for other people. If this is how census data is collected, some of it is not very accurate. LOL!

I need to decompress for a sec before moving on to phone calls for my mom.

I'm glad that Peaches is here!

Next:
- start a lol
- check ingredients for dinner
- email new NH re: hospital bed

Later:
- call current NH
- make the bed
- tidy living areas
- spiff main bathroom
- bake brownies
- back exercises?

- finish making the syllabus
- bring in firewood
- help cook: coffee rubbed fish, fingerling potatoes, roasted broccoli, bread, brownies
- 6:30 host friends for dinner
- after dinner clean up
- update health apps
- duo

TaDas!

- payroll: set up Telegram group for new class
- s2s and self care
- 10 - 12:35 KSJ get together (I got there super late)
- lunch during meeting and after
