SHEs Organized

Mostly - I took a home day today. Slept until service was due to start.

Sheets are washed and back on the bed.
Skipped going to shut in friends home. napped an hour i/l.
walked dog 2.8k despite my complaining knees.
dishes are washed
trying a different approach to stains on the carpet tonight. I'll let you know more if it is successful.

Have nothing in your house that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful.

I love that one for me this week. thanks d lynn - wow you got a lot done! good for you!!! HAVE A WONDERFUL EVENING.

good morning to all!

"just let go" garnett hill my favorite mantra

GOOD MORNING TO YOU TOO D ITNEVERENDS HAVE A GREAT DAY

The pictures of my wood carvings are up on my blog. Neither project is completed but just need sanding and painting so I'll get that done eventually.

Bead week starts today. I will be able to pick up my kit for the classes at 1 today and then attend the classes I want a couple days this week. The beaders are a bit more strict with classes then the carvers. They are given on certain days at certain hours while the carvers just come and go as the spirit moves you. The beaders also have only so many to a class and when they reach that number the class is CLOSED. Carvers just pull in another chair.

Needs to go get some breakfast and get ready for church. See ya sometime this afternoon.

Dh got me up earlier than I wanted, but it was so I could say goodbye to ds - dh and ds were leaving to get him back to GA Tech. DD spent the night with friends D&P and I'm not sure how she's getting back later as her car is here. I've read the paper and am enjoying my oatmeal - need to get dressed soon and walk the ddogs so they will stop shadowing my every step.

I'm feeling like there's a lot on my plate today already. I need to write for the temple bulletin and I need to finish up with gag gift for office. The guy whose name I got is hard to buy for as I don't know him that well. I'm going to use his rigged up stand up desk as he seems to expect to receive negative comments on it from managing partner. (Another staff person asked a couple of years ago to try one and was denied - this guy just set his up but otoh he has an office with a door.) So I have a round mirror so he can see who is coming, and was planning to get a cheap mat to stand on and paint or sharpie the words "Big brother is watching" onto it. If anyone has good easy ideas to build on this, let me know as it feels lame...

Going to get moving at least....
-meds/vitamins for me
-change clothes
-walk the ddogs
-regroup for the rest of the day

Dh had mentioned being home for supper together tonight to dd. I could use a nap, just so I feel I've "treated" myself today and gotten a little extra rest. I think I slept well from midnight on - dkids and dh were at a concert and I never heard them come in, but must have been partly awake listening for them.

I wanna be creative like MT! It's just not fair!

Hey Twins - I can't do taxes without the software - and I am trained as an accountant.

Basically you just cut away anything that doesn't look like what you are making. (PS: and you follow a pattern)

LynLee - Thanks for the beautiful quotes.

INE - Are you using that rub I told you about? He is a great kid, DD is a lucky duck.

MT - have fun with all your crafts, wish I had the time.

Twins - I have been debating a nap as well.

Blessed - Good Morning.

I woke up around 9:30 this morning, but haven't really gotten much done. If I want a nap I will need to clear off my bed. Have to get some homework and Navy work done, but I think that can wait until after a good nap.

Had posted this over in J&C...

I've been doing a fair amount of vegging here myself. The house is quiet and it's wonderful. I'm going to try for a couple or three rounds of work and then will nap.

-check on ingredients for burgers and sweet pot fries for supper tonight
-straighten up great room
-clear kitchen table (lots and lots of unsorted mail)
-start a lol
-clear kitchen work counters only (not the high breakfast counter)

I'm having lunch, haven't finished this round but I am going to go ahead and nap while the house is quiet. I'll need a trip to the grocery and Dollar store later.

I too had sort of restless sleep, neighbors came home around two p. m. and had loud music playing. My sinus/ear were acting up as well. Skipping church today as well. I missed the service I usually watch on TV today too ~sigh~

Today I've done the chicken and chick chores. I made omlettes for our breakfast with everything but the kitchen sink in them. I tried to clean as I went. I also thawed out pumpkin for the chicks, and made popcorn for the hens w/out salt or butter burnt one batch but have a better idea now of how I can do this next time. Now trying to get that smell out of the house.
