Sometimes I feel like such a slug when I read what people have accomplished today. I finished the work week. Yeah!!! Then I came home and fell asleep on the couch. :|
|
I took a couple of more babysteps, only having one nap & being able to adjust in a newish social situation.
|
Slept half the day
Ate Thanksgiving leftovers Loaded dishwasher, ran it and washed miscellaneous pots Put away dishes from prior day Participated in history discussion of Romanesque vs Gothic cathedrals Submitted thesis for English paper Started my history paper Did finance-stuff Took the furbabies out Cuddled with said furbabies [rather involuntarily] Avoided buying stuff [damn CyberMonday] Finished watching The Cleveland Show on Netflix Now watching Raising Arizona on Netflix, but it does not really have my interest |
..I woke up and promptly accidentally hit MBE... I was just trying to see if she was in bed... Didn't know she was THAT close...
...I coaxed myself out of bed ... an hour later... ...I fixed myself lunch after semi being told what I was going to have :| ...I did homework ...I almost fell down laughing ...I did more homework ...I ate dinner and did homework ...I made india spice chai tea ...I took 2 tests ...I posted music ...I had conversations ...I almost fell down laughing again ...I watched a few minutes of a movie that I adore ...I listened to music all day ...and I did homework...and homework...and homework... ...and I was involuntarily loved on by dogs.... ie, a holy terror ended up in my lap as did a jackrabbit and the good one.... note: I was standing up... |
So far...
I got out of bed when the alarm went off (please, hold your applause till the end) I ground some beans and made a cup of drip coffee. I'm drinking it slowly and admiring the sky. |
Quote:
Drinking it now on the balcony, as I enjoy listening to the birds and watching the river. Put in a little extra effort on the presentation of my *look* for the day! |
I accomplished sleeping in.
Seriously, that does not come easy for me. And I seriously needed it. Happy day ahead. |
Let's see...
I went to the gym for an hour and worked out...had to drag myself out of bed because it was so friggin' cold.
Stopped and had a coffee and read for a while. Called my Pops. Did some online shopping. ...Not at all impressive. |
Slept longer than intended [9 hours of sleep? Wow!]
Managed to get to work on time despite sleeping in Skipped breakfast Came home and had Olive Garden leftovers [smoked mozarella chicken] for lunch Went back to work and managed not to call the other Head Cashier Ms. BossyPants [barely!] Finally caved and bought a dual elliptical + bike, should have by Friday, ideally.. free shipping and delivery! Came home and had leftover pasta and sauce for dinner Completed my history test [90% and barely studied] Completed all my hw for Wellness with an exception of weekly exercise log Working on my English paper now Homework for last two weeks: submitting draft of Eng paper and then final submit, final exercise log for Fitness and then the final exam, one more History discussion + map assignment + essay + test. Then I am home free for a month! Plan to get the third bedroom aka our walk-in closet all organized, and re-organize the bedroom furniture, and paint said master bedroom and a foyer and a bathroom :| Hell yeah! |
it's early yet, but I am working on:
-- laundry -- rearranging my bedroom -- making an interesting bread of sorts (an herbed bread roll of lavender and rosemary) -- I plan to make a few candles tonight |
Arrived at work early prep-ed meeting agenda.
Met with too many other people to plan for more upcoming programs. Spent a little time with my mother, she was in town. Another grant and program meeting. Assisted in the feeding and herding of school aged children. Left work early because next week are 12 hr days week. I am playing the hostess! |
Ripped off all the wallpaper in the downstairs bathroom
Wrote two paragraphs for my English essay..7 cups of coffee in 14 hours :| Going to take the birthday girl out to Texas Roadhouse for steak, and homemade [blue] cheesecake with a [green] top layer for dessert. Presents have been opened: a remote car, and a space projector that also rotates the constellations 360 degrees around a room. Getting ready to go to Macy's to pick out holiday ornaments [thank you mom and dad for that annual tradition] and then getting our holiday photos done at JC Penny's for a hella good deal. We are on a roll! Do I *really* have to go to work tomorrow? :( |

I managed to get 99% of my holiday shopping done and even had energy to wrap the gifts too! Knowing that there are only a few days remaining for *insured* shipping: I have 1 of 2 ready to ship on Monday! (thinking the shipping costs may be more than the gifts inside lol) !

Considering how last night went, climbing out of bed was a huge accomplishment.
|
Woke up fresh as a daisy!
Made my bed. Collected still warm eggs. Deep cleaned the chook coop and run. Put everything I was wearing last night and this morning in the washer. Filled the bath, chin deep, in hot bubbly water. Got in. May have over done the bubbles. I have overspill :rolleyes: |
It's not quite 5 am here. I've managed to wake up, (Yay!) have my morning chat with Sadie, put water on for coffee and log on to here. I'd say that's a good start!

Leveled a character in WoW
Did first coat of paint on bathroom ceiling [ran out of paint, actually] Did second coat of paint on door trim and door Spray painted mirror frame [brushed nickel, and kinda sparkly] Took the doors off the cabinet since they do not close correctly Thought about starting second coat on walls but decided to wait until ceiling is finished Painted frame of cabinet white to blend it in with the wall Painted four baseboards white to 1) cover the ugly beige and 2) hide where the yellow paint from the dining room walls dripped on them [6 months ago] Swept and vacuumed the kitchen, bathroom and dining room Vacuumed the living room after planning to for a *week* Unloaded the dishwasher Loaded the dishwasher Washed the pots by hand that could not fit into dishwasher Baked lemon squares Baked brownies Washed dishes and utensils I baked with Enjoyed a lemon square! Finally e-mailed my sister the 102 pictures from her Niagra Falls trip [found usb] Uploading wedding and reception videos to YouTube [that were also on said found usb drive] Thought about trying to put the elliptical together but I think that will wait a few days. May mop floors before I even think about bed.. and pack overnight bag for tomorrow. And maybe take trash out. ETA: Everything after playing WoW only happened within the last 5 hours! |

I achieved much meandering around the house, tweaking, poking and rearranging things to my liking.
Prepared the stuffing ready for stuffing up the turkeys bum tomorrow. Made Guinness Punch, which will not make it past this evening :) |
Drove to the mall for last minute stuff..not me already done!
Cooker of breakfast Turkey for party in oven Cookies baked Ham glazed and ready Various side dishes ready for oven House spotless Prezzies wrapped Table set oh so beautiful Family safe and warm Life is good! Church tonight will wrap everything up perfectly. Merry Christmas from my house to yours. |
The first beautiful thing i accomplished, was sleep in! (til 915!) - that rarely happens, i'm an early bird. So felt good to have a morning with a bit of a sleep in.. (Daddy said i couldn't get up earlier than 8!) - had breakfast - did up the dishes - dusted, sweeped floors - 3 loads of laundry - got an OA meeting in ♥ - went for my walk, despite how cold it was! - went to the grocery store (SO many people! lol) - realized i forgot my debit card home - walked home. - got the debit card, & again off to the grocery store, lol. (the people situation doubled, i'm sure) - picked up the odds & ends i needed, then back home - folded laundry, IRONED *i love to iron!*, & put it away (yes, ironing really is one of my fave things to do, lol!) - deep cleaned the kitchen & the bathroom - swept & washed the stairs, kitchen & bathroom floor ( i don't mop, i wash on my hands & knees, so few rooms at a time lol) - had a late lunch, & now catching up online with Daddy's permission while waiting for Him to get finished plowing... We have plans later tonight, & tomorrow... Love, hugs & happiness to you ALL. ♥ |
So far, my greatest accomplishment today while visiting family, is that I am still in the will.
|
Well, I stayed at work long enough to see my boss breeze in and out. Then I forced myself to stay a wee bit longer and then high tailed it out of there.
Now I'm making a maple cream cheese French toast soufflé. Has to refrigerated over nite to be baked in the morning. |
And I must add...it was very easy to make..added dried cranberries for some festive color. But to make it even more festive, be sure to make this while wearing a black sequin cami top..lol

Not everything I would have like to have that's for sure. The last 3 days have been wide open. Up early and to bed late, no time for a nap, so I've died when I did finally go to sleep. I did get some pies made and gifts wrapped earlier today
|
---*glances around her living room--Appears I accomplished nothing.
|
I managed to....
Get up early.... Get dressed... Take the dogs out... Get the truck out of the driveway.....eventually.... Cash my check... Do some grocery shopping... Got dog food...far far away...they eat special food... Looked for tables...got a dress instead... :| Made it home in one piece and in time for the cable guy... Did some laundry... Folded some laundry... Put dishes away... Cleaned the counters... Remembered to eat lunch (albeit cereal)... Vacuumed the kitchen and living room.... Mopped the kitchen and bathroom.... Found a temporary home for the brazilian boxes of tissues Teddy got from work :| Fed the cat... Watered the animals... Cleaned up after the cable guy left.... Went to work... That's all for now... :) |
I've been to work, run errands and have packed quite a bit.
|
I worked on the walking stick that I am making for me.
Sadie and I took a walk and found some cool duck feathers for the above. Finished the bow for my bow drill. Worked on plans to make the garage into a more 'crafty-workshop'. Cooked, washed dishes |
