WTG with the bank errand and then shopping, Doggedly! I hope Germane enjoyed the carry.
Ooh, it is good to support high school arts, Bama. Great point!
I've started setting up coffee the night before, thanks to your habit, L Ann. I need to go to the diet website.

I'm starting to pack -- but I don't know how to pack for temps in the 70s and 80s. I might go without my down puffer, but the idea of traveling without a decent coat makes me feel insecure. LOL!! I might bring a fleece coat.

Main Goals for Today:
- Exercise: a jog -- maybe try the arb hill?
- Payroll Exam Prep: Finish 1 exam; send all of them out for review - only my own is left
- Kroger - quick stop by or do an order
- laundry: 2 loads clothes; 1 load towels??
- writing time
- If I can get to it, clean sheets on the bed
- start packing
- maybe refill bird feeder - today or tomorrow (needs to be done before we leave)
- early dinner with dh: vinegar and olive chicken (from freezer), rice, green salad


Next:

On the rare occasion that I have set up the coffee maker the night before, it has been a delightful surprise to me, helia. It happens more often that there is leftover coffee in the coffee maker that I can heat up in the microwave.

I did the bank, the post office, the exercise class, stopped to visit dfBS, brought oatmeal muffins to MrVKM, talked with ds on the phone, went to Lent supper and service at church, + class afterward, and now I am home.
dishes still aren't done and hutch isn't rebooted, nor are any of the things that go into it dusted.
I have tomorrow morning.

I could get started, but I also have a book to read with the group study at church (I am finding it plodding, and am trying to decide if it is worth my time). It is a book being taught at local college, by a Russian author from the 1930s, Stalin's time. Pontius Pilate is one of the main characters. The college professor (member of our church) offered to teach it for us too. So it is good for our brains to think it through.
I think I am going to put on my PJs, crawl into bed, and sit and read for at least a little while, if I can get mroe interested in the book.

helia, 70 can be cool, especially if cloudy. Maybe a sweatshirt weight jacket? Where are you going? 80s, short sleeves, a lightweight sweater for AC indoors. Sandals. sox with the sandals in the 70s. Capris either temps, shorts only if you like to wear them. Midlength skirt if you are going somewhere that requires modesty and skirts.
my dsis3 sets up coffee the night before too. So she doesn't have to think in the morning. Being alone, I have my keurig. But simetimes I want more than 1 cup.

Enjoy your book, Gma! I'm watching the Robocop movie and just doing little things around the apartment.

[Bama]

Enjoy Robocop, Dogged.

Hope something in the book can keep your interest, Gma. I’m leaving my book club after this quarter bc the books are top sellers but just not my thing, nonfiction, author has to be living, so either current events or feelings. Nice to know but after years of the same thing, I’m taking a break.

Backplanning all of February, that’s how far behind I am, so reading the daily chats to see if I put anything that needs a permanent place in my planner.

[Bama]

I made it from the first of February through the 14th. Hope to fill in a couple more weeks tomorrow. Some things just won’t get written down since I didn’t note them here or on my phone. Why do I do this to myself lol. *head smack*

Sweet dreams.
