Continuing bw2's theme from yesterday on our new week. So many words of wisdom yesterday I'll need to reread the thread because I was obsessing over hobbies yesterday with Harriet and HRH.

" Over goaling" I am guilty as charged.

I am having a hard time not over goal-ing my thoughts - :D 8-) It's a bad habit.

I pulled cards (basic) last night instead of this morning. (lol it made me feel better this morning)

what drove me crazy: the sink is full again - not from me. counters: dd younger cleaned out my car so that she could use it today and left things on the counter. She worked all day - It was a professional job - stunning. - so I can't complain but I woke up to stuff.

dh took dd's car to get the tires looked at (or buy 2 new tires) He still is fighting the fact that the tires leak and that we have had to refill them three times. he is taking the car in right now. very nice

yesterday the young man did so much clean up work - the rest is mine:
what's left
take in umbrella and hammock
empty dog pools -put away
undo hoses for winter
clean the fountain and cover
plant the bulbs
plant garlic
get a heater for the bird water
find out why the one outlet keeps breaking even though I just had it replaced.

Happy Monday everyone!!!!

Happy Monday back atcha, bw2!

I have the roomba going on the screened porch and I did sweep around the edges of the porch to get the dead bugs and things that are hard for the roomba to pick up. That's the limit of my industriousness so far. Okay, I am half way through emptying the dishwasher too but I wondered off. And I need to check for more dog food in the garage? Ping!! Ping!! Ping goes my mind.

Picked up my footprints and cleaned my kitchen before I went to bed last night. Everything looked great when I got up this morning

Still working through a.m. routine with many detours. Roomba done on porch and going inside house now. I cleaned out the shelf with plastics for leftovers, etc. and threw some out, matched up the rest, organized them. Dh is going out for lunch and going to Costco after. I have my workout at two.

Dfriend who will be houseguest called to discuss things....

I'm just now eating my brunch.

I still haven't gotten upstairs, except for grabbing the two bathroom rugs from the upstairs bath and washing them.

A little discouraged, dh was snarky with me about doing two things that I asked of him.

Good morning!

I am a good one for spending too much time setting goals and not enough time actually working toward them. That and getting distracted and falling down rabbit holes (which I have just done). I did a brain dump a couple weeks ago, though, and prioritized that list and have been working from it. That and making myself accountable here have been helping. I still need to redo my cards, but that's further down the list.

Right now, I need to do as Twins did yesterday and do a bleach load of whites. The bathroom shower curtain is showing a little mildew. I also need to do a load of DH's shirts; he's still got plenty clean, but the dirty ones are overwhelming the sorter. Other than dropping off DD and picking up DC, I don't have any reason to go out today. So other than the laundry, my priority should be getting the unwanted items from the playroom cleaned and packed to give away. I think anything beyond that would be over-goaling for me today. :)

Lunch first, though! Have a great day, everyone!

I ordered a pair of socks for dd younger for christmas
warm ones

dh is not home yet
mom ate well but went back to bed
still waiting for the nurse

hi d mystery well done on the brain dump - glad it helped! good for you.
cheering you on as you work
have a great day too

hi d twins yay on your morning routines - detours are part of the journey - aren't they :D
cheering you too while you work

I am just getting started- that morning went fast
tried calling brother
nurse said mom is declining - I have been saying that for the last few weeks - it's still hard for dd's to accept it. (dh has come back so many times and so has mom - that it is hard for them to understand-they believe it's a "medicine" "a procedure" that will cure her)
it's time for hospice and time to have a talk with mom

called uncle :D
waiting for brother :D

finished the daily study. :D
washed dishes in dw :D
washed another load of laundry :D - next fold the stuff in the dryer - flip flop laundry - get dogs bedding and wash
now to empty them :D

------------------------------------------------
got snow plow contract from company - so far they want to put stakes in for $90 for the driveway - nope - two years ago it was $50
problem: they are still clear of any wrong doing if the scrape things, make a hole, hit irrigation systems, or pillars or gates. it's in the contract

also if I want the drive way salted - it will be $60 a bag. wow nope - not this year! as I have broken my ankles-I used to use their service. Last year I used my car and salted my own driveway for a lot cheaper

to shovel our short walk in front of our house 12 feet to the door it will be $60 for shoveling - nope - I bought one of those small battery shovels

this years contract states that the driveway will be $90 each plowing - 2" and above. that is the going rate around here. I wish I had bought a gator with a plow years ago.
--------------------------------------------------
it's so crazy - mom woke bright and bushy tailed. an hour ago she looked like deaths door

helper is back - I need to take a shower.
