I woke up at 4 am full of energy this morning; it's now just after the noon hour and I am starting to slow down.

I got my Christmas cards addressed and mailed.

Took all of the clothes out of my "I-might-wear-this-later closet", washed, dried, folded and packed them into boxes to be dropped off at the donation center.

Cleaned the ceiling fans and light shades

Dismantled my new table saw and the stand, and boxed it back up. I am going to exchange it at some point today or tomorrow.

Marinated the chicken wings and have them baking in the oven with a couple of sweet potatoes.

Swept all of the hard floors, but still need to vacuum carpet.

went out to buy 2 bottles of Club Soda, spent $84 at grocery store...and no, they weren't $42 each.

I did not accomplish a lot but I did manage to get a donation pick-up scheduled with the disabled veterans for late next week.

I made it to the grocery store and the natural foods store both without buying junk that I don't need. I had not eaten yet and was starving, but I stuck to my guns.

I cooked and got dinner dishes washed up.

Oh yeah, I also took down my small tree and got it and the other decorations boxed up for next year. ;)

I stayed warm.

I did my grocery shopping. It's always a huge anxiety-ridden chore for me, so this was a very good thing!

I've been going since 6am!

I worked at home today so in addition to putting in a 9-hour day with my career I did the following:

Laundry
Cleaned both bathrooms
Went through a bunch of cosmetics and products, organized them, and cut a big Target sack full loose to go to the shelter
Made a big pot of black bean chili (yes, I'm eating a ton of this lately but antioxidants and YUM!)
Started a no-knead bread that takes about 16 hours to rise and complete
Simmered a homemade sauce for veggie lasagna all day (red and yellow peppers, onion, garlic, fire-roasted tomatoes that I did myself, spinach, black olives, all kinds of spices, and YUM)
Worked on a sewing project off and on
Drank about 30 cups of hot tea
Worked on a super-secret project for someone special
Talked to Julie
Talked to Charma
Talked to JD
Cleaned out the fridge and freezer
Took out the trash

I am STILL going and taking full advantage of my energy burst! WEEE!

Slept in late
Took a few loads of stuff to the storage unit
Went and got dinner from Whataburger
Cleaned up more stuff from my closet for mom

Laundry, dishes, sweaping snow from path and steps, playing with pups outside, hauling a friend's old recliner up the steps, convo with my best friend, made blueberry buttermilk breakfast cake... and put groceries away

I filled out the paperwork so mom could become a legal gun owner. It's quite a pain in California. Oh, and I got her passport renewal application in the mail. Now we can take a cruise this year.
