Virgo Posted March 10, 2015 Author Share Posted March 10, 2015 Family and friends just don't realize what an accomplishment that is some days. Just to get up and face the day. Lazy day for me too, but I needed one. It's nice once in awhile. I did manage to do some domestice duties, yoga, and I'm going out for dinner with my dad and daughters tonight. Goals for this week: schedule an appointment to get my taxes done (been on my list for awhile) schedule and appointment with my insurance agent take clothes to the resale shop get groceries Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IfIonlycould Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 Virgo--thanks for keeping it going!!!!!! CBB-some days...heck some weeks getting up (and if you can showering and getting dressed) is goal enough! I've got a week of being all over the place between two 12 hour days at "old job" and three different projects for three different clients...my week is FILLED with work...my goals are to eat healthy, get enough sleep and keep the house looking presentable...I am always really worn down for at least a week after spring daylight savings (I know ridiculous...it's just an hour...how can it affect me so?) If I accomplish anything else I will come back to share because I know I will be excited! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JacklessSally Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 Get through this weekend intact. Sounds easy enough right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baylee627 Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 I resolve to: 1. Get off my lazy widda ass and return to regular yoga, Zumba and running. I used to be a health nut; now I'm just an unhealthy nut! Womp, womp, womp! 2. Finally paint my upstairs game room. I think I've finally grasped that it ain't gonna paint itself. And don't think I haven't waited to see if it would! 3. Procure myself a coffee-fetching cabana boy. Only kidding! 4. Eat more healthfully. Valentine's and Easter candies are not substitutes for meals. 5. Join a new life group at church, one that doesn't revolve around which lady is ovulating and who might turn up preggo next. 5. Learn that "no" is a complete sentence, because I stress myself out way too much by saying "yes" to too many things. Baylee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virgo Posted March 11, 2015 Author Share Posted March 11, 2015 I went to the store, but just for a few things. My major grocery shopping will be done Friday or Saturday. Other then that and going to the gym I didn't mark anything else off of my list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virgo Posted March 13, 2015 Author Share Posted March 13, 2015 I haven't marked anything off of my weekly list, but I did get a few things accomplished today. Plus a few small 'fix it' projects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissingSquish Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 This weekend, I must scoop some dog poop in the yard. Since the snow has melted, it has revealed loads of poop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IfIonlycould Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 I'm having one of "those days"....still in pj's ...lots of changes going on around me and I'm not good with change (great that I get to be a widow...the breed that gets to deal with change the most!)...so I'm heading down the rabbit hole and realized I better find my way over here and set goals before this spirals down completely... Take shower. Vacuum and steam mop floors. Dust. Three loads laundry. Clean bathroom. Organize papers that are starting to make a pile on the desk before they do become a real pile! So even if I feel down...if I can push through and do it at least I will be down but with clean hair and a clean house! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissingSquish Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Ok, I scooped a lot of poop today, but I have a bit of the yard I didn't finish yet. It's raining here today, so it's a bit harder to pick up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IfIonlycould Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Ok through fits and starts and distractions... House is vacuumed, steam mopped, kitchen and baths are sparkling, 1 load done, one in dryer and one in washer...I am headed into the shower and then will crack open a beer and sort through the small pile of papers before it becomes big. And you know what? I feel better...in part thanks to wids on this board and because I now have an incredibly clean house and the rest of the weekend to do what I want.

Guest marian1953 Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Hi IIfonlycould, I am thinking of getting one of those steam mops because I am getting tired of doing the Irish washerwoman maid thing- I am Irish- what brand is yours, if I may ask? What type of floor(s) do you have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IfIonlycould Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Shark steam mop...I have all hardwoods even the kitchen and 1/2 bath and swiffer or vacuum them first and then steam mop. I still do the washerwoman hands and knees on the bathroom ceramic floors though...but the steam is good for those too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
