because of the surgery, I made out my living will, power of attorney, and my will....its all legal and official...now I can go into the surgery and have no pause for concern if I do not come out of the surgery alive. This is a huge accomplishment. And one everyone should consider, even tho they are not going into surgery. Affairs need to be in order.
|
Cleaned the area around the computer.
Packed up some donations for the womens shelter. Made grocery list for tomorrow. Did some research for a friend's upcoming trip. My sister and I went to Queenston and had a nice walk along the trails. Had dinner cooked and eaten before 6pm. All ready for the hockey games to start! |
She deserved having those chores and other such things done for her today. Tomorrow might not be so. |
Fixed breakfast for my family
cleaned the house, ok I had help...lol Made menu and checked recipes for our brunch tomorrow showered and dressed now off to the store. Going to come home and prep what I can for the brunch and finish packing for vacation. |
Did 4 loads of laundry, (ummm I love clean sheets) Played golf in the afternoon.
|
This morning at work...
Fullset of nails Pedicure Not bad for a Saturday... This afternoon... Finished my postings for class... Now I am drinking coffee and running around here looking for trouble... |
WE cleaned out some drawers and threw stuff out and dusted the furniture, then had dinner of pot roast and she had potatoes with it. NOw getting ready some TV and relaxation for the night.
|
I did some sewing on the bags which have been sitting and waiting for me to 'do some sewing' for a good month...
I don't feel 'accomplished' as much as I made a dent in my inertia... if I could get them done then I'd qualify as a full on 'accomplishment'... they are not hard, I'm just tired of the whole style... (or perhaps I am just lazy!) :> |
made some breakfast for us
relaxed napped laughed enjoying my holiday |
Quite a lot actually.
:tiger: |
Showered. :bath:
I'm pretty proud of that. |
...flew in on the redeye from AZ (landing 2 a.m. AZ time, 5 a.m. FL time) :flying:
...drove 1-1/2 hours home, stopping for coffee and a bagel on the way ...hauled my suitcase and computer bag into the house ...petted all the animals, since they all came to greet me ...crawled into bed next to my sweetie and slept until noon ...put a load of laundry in ...stalked Scoote online and noticed that she reeeaaalllllyyyyy wanted to go to the beach ...the two of us piled in the car, drove to Strawberry's for a yummy burger, and then headed to the beach :beachkids: ...walked on the sand, got a little wet, found several coconuts but not many shells ...stopped for ice cream (for her) and a chocolate malt (for me) on the way home ...cleaned up the pool a little bit ...sat on the couch to watch tv together and fell asleep :alarm: ...woke up to eat a yummy dinner my sweetie made :love1: |
I have moved closer to 'accomplishment'
the six bags are ready for the final top sewing and then I needa put in the rivets... they are all hanging and ready for me to finish them tomorrow... at which point I will have moved from 'accom' to be able to add the final 'plish' I guess I could say that I *have* accomplished getting closer to being done than I was this morning...HA!!...the straws are a falling' fast and I'm grasping them as quickly as I can! |
Started watching hockey at noon! Didn't budge from my seat for a few hours. Then decided I'd have to if I wanted to eat tomorrow. So my sister and I went and picked up some groceries.
I will be housesitting in early May for a friend and will be out of town. So we then went and cast our ballots at an advance poll for the federal election. We hurried home and cooked dinner and then turned the hockey games back on. |
Got up for work on time

Easter
One load of laundry
Gym,worked out 6.5 miles We went out for brunch, then did a little farmers market shopping together. Baked a ham |
I worked my graveyard shift,
came home and made breakfast, took a long hot shower, did some laundry, listened to some classical music, talked with my mother today by phone, went for a 5 mile walk, read a bit before I fell asleep, made some cookies, and now I'm leaving for work again. |
Sunday...
Slept in 'til 9:30 :cheer:
Went out to breakfast with my sweetie Home Depot...got a new kitchen faucet and arranged the installation Old Navy...got $135 worth of clothes for $40 :cheesy: Picked up a few groceries Did a couple loads of laundry Baked cornbread to go with my sweetie's chili (even though she insists that cornbread doesn't "go with" chili...crazy woman) Stepped on a big beetle in the laundry room...didn't squish it since it was under the arch of my foot, but I did feel it wiggle :blink: Watched a movie |
Slept in cuddled up to my hunny
Ate brunch before work (salt potatoes diced with some ham, crumbled corn bread and topped with cheese and sourcream) Went to work Faxed our service agreements to Verizon from work to get our $50 rebates for our phones Spoke with assistant manager to get my time off request approved Helped a co-worker apply for more jobs in the surrounding Lowe's to where she's moving to Came home Noted our solar lights aren't working Snacked a little before settling on oatmeal made with brown sugar Added diced strawberries remaining in fridge Reset Internet connection because it's storming outside and there's a lot of rain Watching tv and texting my hunny things we need to do on our days off this week |
More leaves raked.
Vines on house trimmed back. Most of my living rm book cases refilled and the books cataloged . |
Yesterday...
And so far this morning...
|
Yesterday:
I slept, off and on, all dayToday: I'm tending to fires again ... |
Saving the luv-bugs
but It was obvious they were to busy to even care |
Negotiating the price on an event hall for a fundraiser. Since it's for a non-profit, I got it for free! Woohoo!
|
I actually took the day off. Met my girlfriends for brunch and they let me have it for not making enough time for them and working too damn much!!
My accomplishment for the day is realizing how important it is to nurture friendships. It's really hard sometimes to find genuine friends and they deserve time, effort, loyalty and honesty. I am truly blessed.(f) Duchess |
Ate before work(a serious accomplishment!): special k and a blueberry muffin
Worked, worked and worked some more Helped co-worker apply for more jobs Reminded asst mgr about my time off request and he a-okay'd it Looked into work-provided life insurance (it's pretty cheap but I'm not entirely comprehending it) Grocery shopped on lunch once the hell storm took a break (sheets of rain and hail that tore our flowers all to hell :( ).. fell off the healthy weight loss track and was reading Jo's thread about about healthy weight loss and it guilt-tripped me into getting back on it! So my shopping included: whole wheat pita pockets, Kashi Pumpkin Spice Flax granola bars, pineapple bites, red seedless grapes, baby carrots, lettuce, asparagus, artichokes, boneless chicken breast for tomorrow's dinner, a bag of Harvest Cheddar sun ships, and a diet pepsi to curb my soda craving and some chicken caesar pasta salad for my lunch. Came home and put groceries away..was in a mindless food craze so made a bowl of cereal because I didn't trust myself to not binge, and snacked on a snack pouch of the pineapple bites (80 cal packs) and a granola bar. Only finished the bowl of cereal, one granola bar and a few of the bites. Now going to marinate chicken breast in italian dressing overnight.. Paired with jasmine rice and steamed asparagus tomorrow night. Will be making a lemon-glazed poppy seed 'cake' for dessert. Goals to accomplish tomorrow: ReCycle, get year-round tires put back on my truck (after bribing Bard with DD coffee and a donut), turning in a whole lotta change we got perhaps.. make final payment on my dress.. dishes.. then home to cuddle and watch the storm come in again that we're hearing about. :seeingstars: (Thank you Jo for creating this thread. On the days I think I've been lazier than sin, typing it all out makes it sound like a lot more :hangloose: ) |

I have been pretty quiet all day today, but...
I finished my study - so I can turn it in tomorrow, made a few phone calls today, made some supper (a vegetable stir fry w/noodles) made tentative plans for the weekend, and plan to read for pleasure tonight before bedtime. :moonstars: |
Belle, (f) How do you kill weeds with vinegar? Do you mix it up with water & pour it directly on the weed itself? I have a couple of weeds in the front lawn that I want to kill, but have no idea of how too. I have used the usual weed killer from Home Depot that you hook up to a water hose. Thanks, Andrew |

While I was browsing care2.com I came across this article and found out about using vinegar to kill weeds, for those that asked:
Kill weeds and crabgrass growing in sidewalks and driveways by pouring vinegar onto them. A half-and-half solution of vinegar and water can even kill garden slugs if it’s sprayed directly onto them. Read more: http://www.care2.com/greenliving/23-...#ixzz1Ksfeot2O |
