I need to finish a.m. routine first. I took the time to get my email box down to 50 again by reading some articles I had saved, and doing the check in for my mammogram on Thursday. I think I'll start the Roomba too. House hasn't been vacuumed since I left. Between the dog and the heavy pollen right now, I know it needs it, even tho dcleaning lady is coming on Thursday.
I'm procrastinating. Also need to reboot laundry and fold the load from yesterday. And and and... There are still clothes out to put away from trip in bedroom.

I’m right on track with some of y’all.
Been to the dermatologist and the tax man already, heading over to see dmom.
Dmom has announced she is ready to come home.
I do NOT think she is ready. Sigh.

I have done my note book writing session.
Listened to class.
Walked ddoggo.
Put lunch in the oven.
Ate & clean up my plate.
Did a walk about but it's still too wet to mow.
Waving to everyone!

Oh dear, Lucylee, try to keep her busy and maybe she'll be so tired she realizes she's not ready?
Roomba is going, laundry folded but not put away, and washer load moved over (it's the blankets for porch, so quick folding) and bath towels are going now. A.m. routine done, stovetop wiped down too.
It's time. Forty-five minutes starting at the BOTH. My head hurts already.

It's never as bad as I think it will be but I still don't like it. Took me most of that 45 min to get signed into account. Password not working, had to reset, and LastPass not cooperating (not saving the new password I just created.) And years ago, I set up an account accidently with the name part of my email address and every year I end up logging into the wrong account. I WILL put a note on the front of the file for 2025 with that info. Then I sorted stuff, and once you're into the return it asks every possible question and wants to import everything and I just want to enter and be done.
Back to work.

You are wise to spend 45 mins only, Twins', and then regroup. Walk around a while.
We fixed tacos together for a late lunch - that was enjoyable.
We don't quite understand why, but the HVAC people stayed a good while, with 2 vans here. They were content to talk to just HRH some. Then, after they were gone, one came back briefly but didn't talk to us. I am thinking perhaps someone left a tool here by mistake and hurried back.
The weather is cool for the next two days or so. Glad to have the equipment all finished - I hope.

Dh had a cardiologist appointment first thing this morning. Dr. said most recent echo looks better than the previous one. Yay!
Since then dh has been working on a customer's vehicle. The only problem is that the customer has hung around alllll day and dh prefers that his customers go home. That way he can stop to have something to eat if he needs to. Dh hasn't eaten since this morning. I'm slightly worried. This guy was a paramedic in a previous life, and he'll know what to do if dh isn't okay.
It's been too quiet in our house today. Normally the TV is blasting and dh is in and out of the kitchen and the bathroom. I know he'll sleep well tonight.

I was interrupted several times. Dh, dd, neighbor bringing me an HOA receipt so I can reimburse, and ddog wanting a walk. DMillie and I walked half way back around the circle with him to his house, then finished our lap. It would be nice to take her for another lap perhaps, I have 6200 steps so far.
Talked to dd for perhaps 20 min, she's hard to get off the phone. All with her is as well as it gets, lol. I've done the tax return up to charitable contributions and that's always a biggie for us. Needs a lot of organizing and probably takes longer than the rest of the return honestly. I have online receipts where I got an email stored in Evernote. Dh sometimes sends me the email, sometimes doesn't. We have a stack of paper receipts that I have to compare to what I already have so I don't double count. So I'll start again at :30 after the hour. I may knock off at 5:15ish and try for my two hours of genealogy time. I'm tired honestly.
I just keep adding things to my OMM list. I need to write some HOA checks, a cemetery check, get to grocery (need to find what we're taking for Passover too..) reconcile HOA account for March...it goes on and on. And adding to list all the time. It would be nice to get comforter on guest bedroom bed cleaned before having guests. It's the price of being away last week I guess.
Roomba had to recharge, it just started back up.

Stick a fork in me, I'm done.
Dh got home and things become chaotic. He's asking "Do you have this contribution?" or that contribution and I can't keep up. Anyway, I'm stopping for the day and eating something (he's gone on to bowling). I'm not eating the Rotisserie chicken from Costco that he got the day before I left town. I think it's been in the refrigerator too long but he made himself a sandwich of some of it. :
Signing off here for the night, need to work on p.m. routine too. I have a quiet day tomorrow.
