SHEs Organized

oh my goodness - this day is getting away from me.
I haven't s2s or taken my meds yet.

dd woke up mom, gave her meds and then ordered lunch for us. chicken noodle soup and I gave mom a sandwich, some apples and grapes
she helped with folding laundry, helped make a bed, peeled onions, and washed the kitchen table - she just started watching Murder she wrote and I am making her drink water.

onions are cooking - dish is ready for the oven
I was bummed - the other day I had bought smoked bacon and accidentally put it in the wrong cart - I ran over and said what I had done - he said no it's his.very firmly and held it in his arms tightly - I saw what it was ... lol I bet he was surprised when He got home - it was mine. I will go out with mom to butcher or polish deli -
I still have to make soup. I haven been thinking on how to make a Pittsburg wedding soup to can.

laundry has been flipping and flopping - there should be an Olympic sport for this

3:09 took meds! yay - now to find cat.
4:35 pm home again home again jiggity jig (or what ever it is)

talk to you soon.

hello d twins -!! thank you for the start!
the alarm looked at you and said you needed a few more minutes

hello d harriet
yay on getting Tuesday chores done! look at that sparkling mud room!!
sorry you slept poorly!
'it is difficult to plan the day when others are sleeping. I have always struggled with the not knowing of when others will go or when. I always just want to get my own head in the game.
Thinking of Steve and his dear wife!

hi d Lucy!

hi d Kathryn the fire in your cottages sounds lovely!
stay cozy and warm today!
squirrels in the attic are frustrating!
Thinking of d harmony, dees family and d rose.

hello d rose! (((I understand about your dh - ((your dh))) and (((you)) the confusion joins with frustration).
what a horrible chaos in that moment! I am so sorry that happened in your hotel. how frightening for all.
it was a good thing that you said thank you! I know that means so much!
(((dh and you regarding his spider nightmare)))

Yes you will need a nice vacation after this!!!

hello d Nancy!!! Progress yay!!!

It's gotten away from me too, bw2. I've boomeranged back and forth today. After my last PT appointment (baring unforeseen issues?) I took the "offprint" of my article by the local public library, introduced myself and gave it to them. They now have a bunch of different publications on display and had already received their copy and had spotted the article by the local. I was gratified to hear that!

In between body work and PT I wrote a sympathy note and got it ready to go, and repaired the one that came back in the mail because I had the wrong address. The "pearl" had worn and turned dark. I got the new envelope, wrote a note, and mailed both on my way home from PT also. I straightened up just a bit upstairs, and spent a few minutes trying to troubleshoot the printer up there. It says it has a paper jam but I can't find it. And I took off the paper feeder thing at the back and can't get it back on. So that was an anti procrastination task as well, but unsuccessful.

What a horrible event, RRose! I'm glad you're all safe!

I cleaned the stairs.
Then Lunch
Took a break on the deck for a couple hrs. did some writing finished up on journals.
Cleaned up after lunch a bit a few dishes to wash up.
I cut back on news this morning just for a break.

>>>moving my post from this morning. I posted in the wrong place <<<<

What diverse experiences SHE's are having. While I am reading your CI, I try to mentally form a picture of what you are describing. I am challenged to picture the extreme difference from my life and to grasp some of what is happening in your life.
Kathryn is building a fire to warm up her room. In contrast, we still have daily temps in the 90's (95 today).
RR and Harriet are experiencing storms and flooding. In contrast, we are in a drought with a burn ban.
and on...and on...and on...

Normal day here. DD13 is at public school. DS16 is working and homeschooling. I just renewed IXL yearly subscription for DS16. IMHO it is a wonderful educational resource and worth every penny.
I have been doing my normal things - cooking, gardening, cleaning, laundry put away, organizing, decluttering....and on....and on...and on...and on...and on.

Garden critter update. I was finally able to get a clear picture of it - a huge raccoon! Now I am going to have to figure out how to keep the raccoon away. It found the rabbit food so that has been removed. I need the raccoon to decide the garden is not a pleasant place to hang out. On the other side of the fence is a wide-open large pasture and the raccoon is welcome to live its best life there. I just need to convince it to stay away from this side of the fence! I am going to start with simple things and hope they work to make the raccoon decide he doesn't like it here. Today I will be sprinkling ground cinnamon and cayenne pepper around on the ground.

I am trying not the think about it but acknowledge that I am dreading and looking forward to Friday periodontal surgery on the upper and lower left side of my mouth. I am dreading it because I know what is going to happen.....PAIN. Days of PAIN. I am looking forward to it because this will finish all the periodontal surgery needed. It has been 19 days since the surgery on right side of mouth and I can almost use it normally. Almost. I can't do hot or cold things on the right side of mouth yet because of extreme sensitivity. I can't chew hard things yet because it is still tender. I am still putting some food in the blender to make eating easier. I have been using the left side of my mouth to eat but after Friday that won't be possible until surgery heals. Basically eating & drinking during October is going to be a PITA as I continue to heal. Reminding myself......Short term pain for long term gain.

Fall break starts tomorrow and is shaping up to be interesting. DGS18 will arrive Friday night to stay with us for 10 days. DGS18 knows that I will be on pain meds, but I am putting out the virtual WELCOME mat for him. I won't be in my best Nana mode, but DGS18 is always welcome to come visit.

hello d helia! I love seeing you come in more! how wonderful!!!

hope your dh has a lovely flight home! Some with your friend going to Jacksonville! I heard they too have a flood alert.

you should be proud - work out and pt, wrote notes and mailed them, straightened up and troubleshooted your printer

hello d harriet! Still praying for Steve!
yes a new couch - our last one became embarrassing and falling apart - dogs and people have worn down the leather to nothing. - I still have to clean up in the family room before we can put the new couch in place.

hello d Nancy - the stairs look lovely - glad you took such a lovely break.
hope you had a nice lunch

oh my goodness d lady - I can not even fathom 90 degrees - hope that the drought stops soon and that the burn ban can be lifted.
I love hearing about your children's education and schooling!!!

and on....and on...and on...and on...and on.

I hear that!!!
I have used blood meal - but we get coyotes - good luck and having the raccoon move on.
I am praying for you and your surgery - I am so sorry you have to go through that. praying there won't be discomfort!!!
