It's report card day here today only 1/2 day of school. I've been out raking leaves and did another 2 rounds of that I'm back inside for a breather and the coffee is on! Off to post my food intake for lunch.

Thanks Nancy. I'd love to hear recommendations if you get responses to your fb post. A dfriend here recommended to us a study series she used in college; it could be used by teens too, but I don't remember what it is called. I think she gave it to her teen dds.

I've done everything that round except to put the cover back on the upstairs couch. I also called to reorder two scrips while I was refilling meds containers. I'm thinking ahead - need to leave here approximately 5:15 - about an hour - and I also need to s2s and do a little more?

Like Nancy, I'm having a quick cup of coffee first.

Last round:
-register online for a spring seminar - I have webpage up now
-s2s
-put cover back on upstairs couch
-feed those impatient little dog rascals

I've GOT to wake up. I have stuff to do here at payroll. I also realized that I had better do laundry tonight. And get to bed early is clearly in order. I think I have fallen asleep at my desk several times.

Happy to have more progress to report today. I've raked the back yard and the front today plus bagged up 3 bags of leaves today. {Did some reading between those rounds.} Having a water break now & snack. Did not get any feed back on the devo. info. bummer.



H. is home we've both had dinner and the quiet is done for today. But it was good to hear about his interesting day at work helping with the concrete pour at the next build sil has going now.

I think some folks were getting a flyer out of the box in front of the house by the Realtor's sign sigh hoping if they want a showing it will be close to the others so I don't have to get it ready more than once, seems like a few days after we see people getting fliers a Realor calls for a showing.

H. is pretty stiff and achy tonight after work and can't really stand up straight so it's good to be able to say we've been ill and not have any one over this weekend so he can rest up and recoup.

I'm going to try to bag up more leaves now that most are down out of the tree and I've raked. I can tell I've been working in the yard tonight a bit stiff & sore myself nothing major however.

Ok, someone mentioned laundry so I'll start mine right now.

I opted to do the errand run and dh came with me. Then we ate dinner. The TV wasn't at the post office but my toner was so I'll print more newsletters tomorrow.

A busy day today.

The ductwork cleaning and dryer vent cleaning went well. I could not believe all the sounds I heard as he cleaned the dryer vent. I am getting a new washer and dryer when we move and I am so glad that I will be starting with a clean dryer vent.

This afternoon the heating and air company came out to do a fall inspection on the furnace. Turns out it is the original with all the original parts. That makes it almost 30 years old. So if we have any trouble we will just replace it and not let it nickel and dime us.

I vaccumed the kitchen, dining room and living room ceilings and cleaned 4 ceiling fans and light fixtures. Also worked on cleaning the oven and glass stove top. Had to run errands to pick up odds and ends for the house.

Came home and fixed a real meal. We have had sandwiches several nights and I was hungry for food.

We are supposed to get ice and/or snow overnight and into tomorrow. I will just plan on cleaning at the house instead of moving anything.

Better go. It is time for the N ascar Awards Banquet.

Got the silver cleaned (except the cutlery.) I did it properly with polish instead of the quick method (foil and washing soda.) It looks better. It didn't look too bad but now that it is cleaned, I can see how dull it was before.

I dusted the shelves of the china cabinets before returning the silver to it. The house isn't very dusty (no pets, great furnace filter, electric heat) and the cabinets are closed and so there was very little dust despite it not being done for 28 months.
