I'm here finally. I had a Zoom meeting at 11 and got through a.m. routine before, but didn't have time to post. I worked a little updating the plot numbers on Find-a-Grave - which helps me find the grave to take a photo. I put online the general map that shows sections also so if someone is looking for grave they can narrow down the general area a little. I've worked on these a little at a time. Found a couple shown in our records as same plot number but different sections, which doesn't work, so just located them on the map and will update our record - was a totally different section than either.

I need to text the cemetery maintenance people and either call or email about the fence, which hasn't been repaired. It's always something more to do right now.

After my 2 p.m. workout I'll go by the temple and drop off the checks for the construction completion, to be held until completion. ;)

Dh is bowling tonight - actually tonight is the draft. Last week was the meeting to go over rules, etc. So not cooking tonight. I might pick up a salad for my supper...

Got to the Swiffer task.
Mopped.
Found a home to the adult coloring book I had two of the same one.
Decluttered a couple of things glad for that.
Watered the back beds as well.

Home from a quick there/back trip to the city to pick up the prescription meds we accidently left in shopping cart.

On the way home I asked Google to call small cafe in next town where I placed an order for 4 sandwiches. Their club sandwiches are more than 8" thick. We rate them 10 out of 10 in quality, taste and freshness. I will probably experience some consequences from eating one of them because of the gluten in the bread. At the time I was very hungry and what can I say? It happened.

Time to get DD15 from school. *POOF*

disc ov er changed my number now that they merged to cap one (I don't like the company) - they say that I have to contact every company I automatically bill to dis cover - a little frustrating - I might go back to visa. not sure yet. I have never liked cap one. - I am sure others have had really good luck with them.

I pay it monthly for all things automatically billed to dis cover - ie electric, water, etc. - I dont' like companies having my checking account number as I have run into problems with that.(my checking not dh's is used for big repairs and house bills of any kind so I can have quite a bit in it). I no longer use a debit card for the same reason that I don't give out my checking. I had a charge of 200 for "art" that Etsy said I bought -(happened twice). They believed the seller. I have had companies take too much money that they shouldn't have taken out of my checking. .
I will talk to dd older.

did 5 minute run through rooms except for basement or dd youngers room.
dh's room is smelling better as I usually spray it and have been washing his bathroom, his sheets and his floors - it's still not great but better than before.
charging the vacuum as I want to move the dining room table and vacuum underneath it.

trying to think of the next right thing.

Home from workout and trip by temple and cemetery. Office admin won't be there next week, so I kept the checks and will have to get them to the company when they finished. They were laying sod at the cemetery, only thing left now is replacing the fence. Glad that's nearly done.

Tomorrow: must call fence company about the repair from the tree falling, and must talk to maintenance co about what they need to do before gravestone company can do their work.

I had an awful workout. Heart rate way way up and I'm sweaty still. Just kidding, it was a great workout and I am tired. I bet I sleep better tonight too. But coming back into A/C I'm damp and cold. Dh is heading out for bowling soon. Decided I'll make a salad with some of the leftover steak from last night and deli turkey to top it.

I have a question: how do you set up cards or lists for jobs for a room.
dh's room needs wallpaper pulled and painted
the bathrooms need wall repair as it got water damage from the shower. painting etc.
more work than just one card

how do you set up the project to work with your system.

example: dh's bathroom and dressing area
the wash basin cabinet needs sanding and then painting
walls need washing and need washable paint as now it is flat
doors need sanding and then painting
the window by the toilet needs a thorough sanding, the window repaired.
the wood trim needs painting after a really good cleaning
the fan/ceiling light- flat to the ceiling needs cleaning - I still don't know how bugs get in. it.
the piece of furniture in there needs cleaning and painting
the doors need cleaning
I need curtains in dh's bathroom
the cabinet that needs painting need new pulls
I need someone to lift the book case tops onto the bottom drawers - too heavy for dd and I
