When I post a one line response " about what I accomplished today " I'm not being falsely modest . There are so many days when I accomplish nothing or next to. And I've no intention of apologizing for it.

A bunch of birds at one time, even different species, will sit on the little ladder inside.

The entrance hole is at the bottom of the front panel, so their body heat will rise and stay inside.

In the spring, you switch the front panel so the hole is at the top, letting the hot air out, and they use it for nesting. When I order one, I'll affix it somehow to the wall of the balcony.

Everything else I did today pales next to my self-tutorial on bird boxes and storm watching.


Hi, Someone asked me for the link to my research. It was just Amazon. If you search for "bird roost box," all this stuff will come up and you can web-hop around the different makers. Good luck bird lovers! Ginger

I rolled out of bed--eventually after 2 false starts--and took care of the fur babies. Then I made myself some food and perused stuff online. I also played some Spider Solitaire and was mostly successful in finishing each game under 4 minutes, which is my personal marker as to whether it was 'successful' or not. I weighed myself and put my hair up in a ponytail.

Currently, I'm working through my email notifications here and am contemplating having dessert after brunch. Eventually, I'll make my way to actual work and house chores but for the time being, I'm happy doing a whole lot of not much.

Accomplished last week ....

Finished purging-reorganizing my office. It looks nice and feels even better. The only thing left to do is remove the clothes rack for the closet she was going to extend when I was partnered.

Got the carbon monoxide detector hooked up.

Unpacked all my boxes from work.

Gemme 07-19-2020 03:06 PM

Not a darn thing, other than getting a boatload of sleep. I woke a little after 8 and decided to go back to bed. Big mistake. I woke with my neck, upper back and shoulder blade area out of whack so now I can't do much of anything without it hurting.

After today I can say I accomplished 22 days of continuous work. Whew. I survived. Actually, I'm impressed with that. So many steps. I also noticed some guns abuilding in my arms!

I think mind over matter today got to me though. My eyes were so heavy. Decisions...carry on with the list of things I have to do or take a nap??

Iced coffee. That will do it everytime. Accomplished 4 out of the 7 on my list. Tomorrow is another day. Besides those last 3 things will be quite enjoyable.

I'm sure saving the $$ though. A change in venue is in the works. I'm going to vacation land to live. Noooo, not Margaritaville, lol.

Fixed computer, phone, internet! I did need my son's help via text but it's getting better. I'm now familiar enough with all its parts and pieces/various components that he didn't need to come over and do it for me, or even come over and via show and tell guide me through it. Sometimes it ticks me off him making me learn this stuff through trial and error but he's right I do need to learn to troubleshoot better, so I can then practice, practice, practice.

slept in until 6:30, fed pups, filled their water bowls with lots of ice and let them play outside while I watched youtube baby monkey videos (their videos make me laugh a lot - they are so cute) ... then I mowed lawns, pulled up a huge bush roots and all with tow strap tied to truck, used chainsaw to cut a 40 ft log into 3 ft pieces (burn it later) the pups were sleeping in the shade watching me work ... we came in, I had to cool off... that is when I discovered my new 2 week old 15k btu window a.c. for the bedroom was not putting out the normal 65 degrees. I think it foolish to run the central a.c. and cool the whole house that cold. Anyway, I was irritably hot, ended up with skin torn off 3 knuckles when I gave it a good smack ... this caused it to almost fall out the window ... I was inside when I hit it and was fortunate to catch it .... very heavy, brought on a lot of swearing, grunting and farting to pull it back to safety.... it is fine now, freezing us like usual, Jennifer and Jeffrey are covered up with a blanket ... it was just a funky setting I was unaware of ... they hid that info from me in the owner's manual ... duhhh

After work, I made appointments with the doctor and with the DMV. Seems everyone requires an appointment these days . . .

Kenna 07-20-2020 08:38 PM

A lot. But I'm too tired to list it all.
Main thing was driving my roomie to the Dr for his follow up.
2nd thing was to find a Publix to buy goat milk yogurt for my old furbaby.
After letting my Tundra idle at each location I needed to stop at, it needed a special cool down under the shade with the hood up for a while.

But with an appointment, it will probably be the fastest you'll ever be in the DMV.

As for myself, I've accomplished barely anything at all other than cooking up 4 delicious burgers and washing some dishes. I made myself house presentable as well. Nothing as fancy as public presentable but good enough to walk in front of the open window blinds.

Cleared out space around my recumbent bike with some help. And cleaned out a box 😆 and I took a shower, that is a major project with my healing knee. I put together a sprayer and filled it up for use. That's about it. I really didn't do much but it felt good to feel like doing something

Yesterday's accomplishments:

Made really good omelettes with broccoli from our garden in them.
Harvested a bunch of our greens that were on their second round so I pulled them and re-seeded for the next round.
Built up a fence to go around our beans and cantaloupe because a groundhog discovered them and went to town.
Cooked ahead for the week: Baked haddock, chicken covered in rosemary and thyme from the garden, veggie loaded quiche, and shrimp curry.
Took out the trash.

Today is going to be over 90 degrees and I work in a swamp so I'm glad I got all of that done yesterday because today will be about staying upright until I don't have to anymore.

Gemme 07-28-2020 10:04 PM

I accomplished not getting any kind of heat sickness, which is great. I'm very happy with that accomplishment today.

Bèsame* 07-30-2020 04:19 PM

With all this handwashing and sanitizing, my nails are definitely taking a beating! Brittle. Peeling. I've tried nail hardeners, that starts to peel off within 36 hours. Short, filed..nope still peeling.

Today I got my manicuring skills out. It's been about 20 years since I dabbled in acrylics. Well, let's just say left hand, very well executed! The right hand, I'll have to hone in on more practice. Lol. Let's see if this is the solution I need.

Psst...the polish makes them look much better.

* Slept in and had a lazy late morning breakfast and yummy cup of herbal tea.

* Trimmed and colored my hair.

* Later on today, catch up on some household chores, wash and dry some laundry, maybe go for a late afternoon drive.

* Mostly, I have taken good care of me. Best plan ever, if you ask me.

Gayandgray 08-09-2020 04:14 PM

Got the grass cut and all weed wacking done, cooked chicken & dumplings for dinner, bathed 3 of the 4 dogs, now watching 90 day fiancé, I’m ashamed to say I’m ADDICTED to this show!

GeorgiaMa'am 08-09-2020 06:38 PM

Changed the cat litter, called my sister and my mom, watched baseball. It was a very laid-back day.

Kätzchen 08-17-2020 09:16 PM

I worked today: it was a long day, but the weather was beautiful, even though it was terribly warm.

And that is an accomplishment, being able to work and spend the better part of my day at work.

My work is like my home. It's my home away from home.

Just today, I saw someone I haven't seen since last February or was it in mid March? Mask or no mask couldn't disguise the joy in our voices or in the laughter we shared.
