made a decision to not work in the morning
apologized to someone had parent-teacher interviews had a good convo w/friend |
very little
went by work to get a pic taken
took my sweetie to lunch grabbed copy of MRI results bought 3 old sterling silver spoons and couple rolex collector spoons |
Went to work
Got my time off requests approved Did quite a few refund/rebills Stayed 45 mins late to help out Came home and put the clean dishes away Washed the ones in the sink Swept Mopped Wiped down the stove and counters Made up dinner using leftovers Results: Italian-marinated chicken breast, steamed asparagus, cooked corn and carrots, a few salt potatoes, and a salad of endive lettuce, bell peppers, onions and carrots Now watching the Elvira movie and debating grapes or a popsicle.. Hmm |
I made scones today for the first time ever. They turned out perfect, and omg they're easy to make. Who knew :| |
As little as possible and with my boss' permission, too!
|
Vacuumed and washed my car. Did some shopping. That's about the extent of my accomplishments for the day.
|
Yesterday...
And today....
|
Unloaded the dishwasher, put the items that had accrued by the sink in said dishwasher, did a load of my work clothes and am washing sheets now, paid bills and mentally tabulated budget for the week, nuked leftover pizza and I am in the process of eating said pizza. Oh, I walked down to the office and paid our rent and water.
|
Got up and walked the dog (or did she walk me? It was 5:30!) made triple espresso, went back to bed to drink it, made breakfast and enjoyed on the deck (and shared with the canine being), went to Trader Joe's for some staples, put those away, brought the bicycle to the shop to be check-out and fitted with a back rack and some handsome saddlebags (it will take a week, they are swamped), went to the local annual plant sale but they did not have herbs so went instead to the local garden shop and got lemon grass, tarragon, and silver thyme to complete my plantings, got home and planted those plus parsley, cilantro, dill, and Thai basil, washed up, and now thinking about lunch, and the rest of the day (I need to start playing with those wet dreams, but that's another thread!).....

I recaptured my declawed, indoor cat who decided, for the first time in her 11 years, to slip out the front door. And.....I will only say this once......if a video of me, in my skivies, flailing about in a water soaked flower bed wrestling with the cat finds it way to U tube.....heads will roll! |
Slept in - oops! - but got to work on time
Had a busy, hectic day but resolved complaints Succeeded in not beating the loaders for being "too busy" when I needed help Napped on lunch, though still tired Went to the bank after work and deposited cash (they were closed!) Checked bank when I got home Saw an overdraft fee and called bank's 800# immediately Was refunded the $34 fee - one allowed every 12 months, lucky me Made note not to use card until pay day because it's in negative still for 3 days Made list of bills and due dates Debating food and thinking of ignoring laundry I could just take a long nap :seeingstars: |
Called cable and got them to lower our monthly bill by $7-8. Not a whole lot I know, and not that I was even trying, I was just inquiring about our pricing.
Hmm what else can I accomplish today? :p |
went on a little adventure to 2 places sort of in the same area & based on some very good directions provided by someone who always gives very good directions...
Naturally i left the directions on the table by the door......maybe i didn't use his exact route...but i managed to get there just the same without sending out an SOS or running out of gas...:eyebat: |
.. did some spring cleaning , and made a pot of goulash ... :) |
Used my phone's internet abilities to find a fridge for my roomie.... (after we were both frustrated from driving to several locations without luck)
then proceeded to annoy him for the rest of the evening. |

and went for a drive (out to the Sandy River Gorge) and then stopped by Lowes.... I've been wanting to buy some bras, but the cost of three bras went to Lowes today: I bought cinder blocks & slats of heavy wood to make a frame for my broken bed - which my lovely lumps will thank me later tonight *lol* Got some chinese take out, ... some beer, soda & artesian water and the New York Times paper for in the morning - love doing the puzzle It was beautiful here today! Plus, KBOO has been playing a non-stop set of music by the Grateful Dead!!! *woot* here's a link, you can download the app and listen to them: http://kboo.fm/listen (choose the MP3 high band width for best listening pleasure) online... |

I finished sewing, and packed up a leather bag to send out tomorrow
I packed up the first of the Mother's day gifts I'm giving her this year... I got half way through a bag for Me...I decided I deserved a leather travel bag so I'm working on one...I am devising some new designs so it's taking a bit of time to do the prototypes...I think it will be okay... and, I kept my mouth shut...that is often a Real Accomplishment ! |
I slept late.
Did my Sunday beauty rituals. Decided to wear my hair curly (meaning I air dryed it), looked cute. Put my enchilada roast in crock pot for pulled beef for tacos/enchiladas/burritos/etc later in the week. It is YUMMY. Ate a tasty turkey sandwich while reading the paper and cutting out a TON of coupons. Went shopping and got some good deals. Cleaned out my cosmetics case and organized. Washed all my makeup brushes. Did 3 loads of laundry. Unloaded and put away dishes. Reloaded dishwasher. Sent some emails for work. Made baked chicken and grits for dinner. Watched Law and Order: Criminal Intent with Goren and Eames back...awww yeah! Now I am getting lost in mindless tv trying to get sleepy. |
I'm taking credit for this...
Today I wished for something to knock the wedding out of the headlines... I had no idea I was so powerful... must be careful with my wishes, now that I know this... heheheheheheheh |
> cleaned the house
> went to get gas in the car to take my cousin to the airport in the morning > cooked dinner > watched some tv |
Kitchen is PACKED!!!!!! WOOT!

Caught up on lost sleep between last night and this morning
Went to work Came home and ate a lunch of noodles, salad and grapes Went back to work and tried not to pull my hair out (successful!) Managed not to gripe too much about people still in the store 30 mins after we closed Went grocery shopping again after work (I am noticing a habit...) Will mention 90% of the purchase was veggies so I can justify it Gave advice to a friend Talked to another friend Ate my second salad for the day and some tuna in a pita for dinner Took the trash out Washed a load of laundry Hung up all the clothes I've neglected to hang up in the kiddo's room Wondered why I can't get myself to hang up all mine, lol.. Keep making a note to catch up on laundry but failing I am recognizing work is stressing me out lately, but I am glad I am not bringing it home. Just stressing during my scheduled shift hours. That's pretty normal, right? I'm just not used to being "OMGWTH is going on?!!!". At least it ends when I punch out for the day :) |
I put away a hecka clean clothes and squished them ito a too-small space.
I got facebook pretend married to my internet friend again. I teabagged a piece of paper. :tea: ... by which I mean i created a fake scroll-paper effect with a teabag. :P Oh and I killed Osama Bin Laden. |
Sunday...

Opened a savings account and set up direct deposit of $50 per paycheck into said savings account. :D
|
Well, let's see here, it's a typical Monday, so I'm just thankful that I haven't had to smack anyone YET today ;)
|
Managed to have coffee/tea in the sun at 4 different food/drink establishments in town with the Fag Father - it's a Bank Holiday here for some wedding that happened last week.
Bought an A2 drawing pad to make colourful essay plans on. Just about to transcribe my learning support session. |
not much other than...
resting in bed (napping/sleeping) listening to music (or the patio wind chimes) sipping on herbal tea w/honey (just had chicken & dumpling soup) |

Grocery shopping laundry emails phone calls housecleaning and now I'm gonna rest......:jester: |
