Hello Everybody

Hi Tatoulia
Been ages since I was in a big warehouse store but I remember that they had great deals for people who could use a LOT of something.
Very sweet of you to buy treats 😀

I still have some of the crossword and pencil puzzle books I found at the thrift shop long before the lockdown.
So happy I picked them up when I did.

It's 11:15pm so I think I should go to sleep...

We ran errands this afternoon. I picked up a bunch of individually wrapped things for the people at my mother's place. Bags of pretzels and chips, bags of cookies, fruit gems, and sparkling water. I haven't been to one of those warehouse stores in years. It was good to pick up a bunch of things for the workers at mom's, easier than trying to arrange a lunch.

Now kitty and I are just sitting here. I'm doing a load of towels. I picked up the Sunday Times while I was out (generally I get the crosswords from BF's copy but I wanted my own paper today).

So I'll work on crossword for now.

Good Morning Everybody

WAY TO GO! Subclinical!
You got a lot reduced and condensed and relocated and cleaned.
YEA! for doing essential laundry and dish washing too.

Keep singing "Waltzing Tatoulia" 😀

Some times, most times I have a row of post-it notes to work through.
Very satisfying when I can remove them one at a time.

Enjoy your time with Dh out playing golf.

Hi Tatoulia
YEA! for more laundry!
I still need my comforter at around 3am. So glad I didn't wash & pack it away yet.

Sometimes I wish I didn't know how to bake sweets. Would really help me not to indulge.

Great June themes you are deciding on following. 😀
I should follow your example.

Not sure what I will do today.
Maybe water?
Should do some house cleaning but don't wanna. ;p
Maybe I'll just take today off guilt free and do nothing.
Really should cook some healthy nutritious food.
Oh wait, I still have some "Red Vines" in the pantry. 😉

Hello hello! WTG SubC!!! Your post-it note system is working! So proud of you! You sound better and remember, each step you are taking is in the right direction!

Tillie, I'm glad the one shop is keeping their vulnerable workers safe. I bet they miss being at the shop!

I am so washing my underclothes now. I stopped at two loads last night.

I am glad I didn't take my transitional quilt to the laundry. It is definitely cool here and I needed it last night. Simply lovely weather here. So cool. So sunny. All the windows are open!

I am feeling so much better now that I'm not baking and eating sweets.

Well I'm even doing a spot of real work today, so I'm feeling great.

I don't know my theme for June so I think I'll choose keep moving forward. That includes decluttering, physical movement and eating better.

CM, I am glad for your cousin being home too.

I am so scattered right now. Sorry.

Yesterday I recycled the "pay mortgage" post it note and the "check last English paper" post it note. I also worked on the "fiber bins" post it note and made the space Dh wanted.

Then, while he set up his coffee roasting station I cleared off my firing shelf, wiped it down, sorted and organized everything, and put it all back. I also added (to newly cleared space) a cart with three drawers to make the shelves less crowded and items easier to find. The cart had been taking up other space empty.

I got rid of about three paper bags worth of stuff - evenly divided by compost (cardboard and potting soil from dead plants), donate, trash, and recycling. The recycling made a bigger dent than the space it took up, because I discovered that I had many partly empty boxes of the same firing cones. Once they were combined, the empty boxes could be flattened and recycled.

I brought one bin of fiber into the house and put it on the enclosed porch, where it cannot stay.

Right before bed I started the dishwasher and ran one load of essential laundry.

Today Dh is going to play golf.

I don't know why, but I now have "walking tatoulia" stuck in my head to the tune of waltzing Matilda. Tatoulia, I'm glad your mom is getting such good care.

Tillie you have a marvelous memory, Tillie! Sadly they are not putting the flags out in the Common this year as it takes over 500 volunteers to put them in place. Instead, we are being encouraged to do our own flags. I've put two in each of my window boxes. I'll take a photo for you tomorrow.

I am envious of your dried laundry! I'm actually doing a few loads right now. I did a dark load that is now in the dryer and now I'm doing on load. I'm waffling over whether I'll go a towel load or not.

I do not miss doing laundry in my apt. The dryer wasn't properly vented and caused humidity problems within the apartment.

My foot aches from the walking. There's a bit of an electric burning feeling around two of my toes. I'll wear better shoes tomorrow. I'm just glad to get 4 miles in today and to go to an area of town (near Fenway Park) where I generally don't go. I'm pretty sure that out tickets to Billy Joel at Fenway will be cancelled. They were a gift to BF. I'm just glad that we did as many cultural activities as we did and that we were fairly active in the arts. We will get back to those things but I feel gratitude that we did so much. We had tickets to three activities in March & April that we're ultimately cancelled. But I feel thankful we participated in so much. The museum of fine arts will be extending my membership. We just renewed on my birthday when we were there.

I am running the dishwasher now. Tillie, I was so grateful to wake up today and to have not purchased anything. Relieved. Let me hang onto that feeling!

They've brought in some replacement help at mom's and both of the men are very nice. One told her she gets the prize for receiving the most mail (I have a friend who writes nearly daily in addition to my minimum two pieces) and one of the others sat down and played her piano. Although they are all stretched very thin, they still have a moment for a personal touch with mom. The cat is crazy for one of them, she rubs all around his legs when he comes in.

I think I'll play around with my phone a bit or maybe work on a crossword. I think at most I'll do one more load, of delicates, which I can then air dry.

Beautiful cool air tonight. No rain in sight.

Good Evening Everyone

So Tatoulia, your Mom's Kitty is a little hussy flirting with that man. ;D
So happy the Kitty has come out of her shell, I knew she would eventually.
So sweet of the new helpers to take the time to spend a few minutes with Mom. (((HUG)))

YEA!!! for not buying anything!
You did good.

Dig out the good walking shoes and get cracking.
You were so much happier when you were walking regularly.

I'm happy you and Bf were so busy going to lectures and concerts and other events.
Everybody will be so excited when it's safe to do so again.

I am quite content now having done some laundry and it's all fresh, clean and put away. 😀
Only a few articles of darker brighter colored clothes left in the hamper, not enough to do a load yet.

So many regular activities cancelled.
Guess we just have to invent new ways to mark the days.
It won't even be safe to visit the cemetery since there may be too many people there already.

Two of the three thrift shops here have reopened.
The closed one is run for and by the people who are mentally challenged so I think it's good they are not open.
So many of them have health issues and are at higher risk.

Spent the afternoon playing with beads and watching "Dark Shadows" up to episode #1120.
It has been the most beautiful perfect Spring day today.

Good afternoon! I took a walk today and finally started feeling like myself again. It's a bit overcast and cooler. Feels lovely.

I've showered and had a snack of carrots and cheese and feel like myself again.

What are you doing today?

Hello Everybody
Such a pleasant sunny cool very slight breezy day with 1% chance of rain.
Spent the time doing 2 loads of laundry that are still out on the line.
Then did some gardening and then did a little straightening up inside.

Hi Subclinical
Big (((HUGS)))
End of school is always an emotional time for you but this time it is even more so.

Happy I could get a laugh out of you 😉

WAY TO GO! for the shower and teeth brushing! 😀

Glad Dh brought home the pizza.

YEA! for sleeping late!

Good plan to tackle life one small post-it note at a time.

Hi CriticalMass
All we can ever do is just one thing at a time, multitasking won't work for most things.
But eventually all those little "one things" start to add up to some great progress in the right direction.

WTG! saving the clematis vine from under the rubble.
A treasure hidden.

Such good news your Cousin is back home again.
Now she should be even better off with new meds and routines to prevent any further issues.

Make sure to get back out to that pleasant painting spot often. 😀

Hi Tatoulia
YEA! for putting on some clothes before the video meeting! ;D

Hang tough with not online shopping.
Look at what you have already at home and be content with it. (((HUG)))

I remember vividly how much you hated your home and your self when it got hot and humid.
YEA! those days are just a fading memory now for you (((HUG)))

Keep up with the CDs and proper eating.
Take walks, go see that area all full of U.S. flags.

Great work CM! I am so proud of you! I'm archival in nature and getting rid of stuff has been so freeing! I'm sending you lots of energy although I suspect that by shredding the red van notebook, you truly have boosted your energy!

Yay for cousin being home!!!!

SubC end of school year is always sad. And sadder this year. But look at you, moving on to the Post It Chsllrnge!

Once it's a little later here, I'll start back in on shredding. It is cooler today and a beautiful breeze.

Just being peaceful.

Tillie my CDs are working and I'm continuing to crave only good fruits and vegetables. I'm so happy with this.

lol, yes tillie, I am a mess. That actually made me laugh. Sometimes it is good to have somebody just acknowledge the reality of your situation.

Yesterday I finished online school. The wireless would not work for my outside demonstration, but we played a game and it was good, and I almost ended on a high note except that one of my favorite students waited until the last two minutes of "goodbyes" to tell me she probably won't return next year.

Then I turned off the computer and cried.

I took a shower and I brushed my teeth and Dh went into town for a part he needs to do electric work and brought home a pizza.

Last night I wrote all the things that were stressing me out on post-it notes and stuck them all over my table. And then I went to bed and slept late.

Today the sun is out finally! - for a while, thunderstorms later.

Like CM and her floor (nice job CM!) I am going to deal with my life one post-it note at a time.

Read through everyone's posts.

Loved your blood donation story, Tillie. 😉

SubC, be gentle on yourself. I believe we are all grieving the "old" world whilst trying to navigate the "new" one. It takes energy.

Tatoulia, I am trying to soak up some of the spillover from your decluttering energy rays! Heehee. I'm starting to inch along. To do a thing even when I can't Do All The Things, or even very many things.

Yesterday I'd picked up a red notebook cluttering the floor, and in it were the records of tags/taxes and repairs on my old red money pit van. So I shredded and recycled all that. Good Riddance. Small job but it sure felt good. Told myself, now CM, all you need to do is pick up the next item and deal with it, rinse and repeat.

We had 1-1/4" of rain with big rolling thunder boomers in the early morning. And a sunny warm day. It was trash day with room in one of the bags so I scurried out and pulled the remainder of the nasty sticktight weeds between the garage and fence.

And discovered a clematis vine. Went inside, asked roommate; it wasn't hers. Former neighbor's perhaps, but it somehow is on our side. Don't know if it has already bloomed, or what. But the junk hiding it and robbing it of nutrients is gone, so we will get to find out now. A good metaphor for the decluttering journey, I thought.

My roommate and I occasionally get takeout food and eat in a park here lately. We did that tonight at the county park by the fishing lakes. I told her about times when a different friend and I went there and how I'd sit and paint. She came up with the idea of us both going sometime soon and working on our painting. She was an art major. This idea is exciting! A morale boost. I'll have more to say about it.

Since I'm up ridiculously late, I was really only going to make a short post with the following news:

My cousin is back home! She will see her primary care doctor and set up PT appointments. I am so thankful she is on the mend.

Okay. Will go to sleep. (I had to nap earlier, I was tired, so now my body clock is more off than ever, LOL.)

Oh SubC I'm so sorry!!! Definitely take a shower or bath and see if you can change the sheets. It looks like both Tillie and I had clean sheets last night.

Ugh. Steven. I know exactly the type. I'm so sorry he berates you so. I'm grateful to have shed my brother.

I received a lovely note signed by my mothers Dr's office/senior center thanking new for lunch. I had sent a Panera gift card(after figuring out where they like to get their lunch). The nurse kept my name a secret and I was so touched by their note. Esp since they are part of the PACE system abc do God's work every day. I'll do this again in July.

I woke up late for Coffee Time this AM so I put on a bra and a shirt and logged in. And despite having no coffee, I was the hit of the morning. I started out by saying that my meeting with Stearns and Foster ran late and from there I was off and running. So I had a great time. Then I had to get ready for my 10:00 since I was presenting (no video, thankfully, I just shared my screen) and then Happy Hour started at 11. Work ended at 12 so I ran some mom-related errands. Oh! And I ran into my colleague who just had a baby and she had her little baby boy with her!!!! So lovely! And I ran into the lady who runs the convenience store in my work building. Oddly enough, she was our convenience store lady back in our old building (some nights BF and I would give her a ride home) and now she works (worked) in our new building. She's suffering greatly. I may pick up a gift card for her. I'm not sure where she shops. I don't know if she has a car to get to one of the cheaper grocery stores.

I took mom's dry cleaning and dropped it off. I have an interim quilt to take to the laundry.

I'm trying not to buy stuff on line today. I haven't suffered too much with it but it's creeping back into my consciousness. I think I'll make a payment to my small loan instead.

Love you all!

Tillie it was hot and a bit humid here today. I'll take your cold winds!!!

And I don't hate my apartment. Remember how I used to hate it in the heat? I'm so glad to have found you.

The wind came from the North today.
That is very rare.
It was very cold and fierce, blowing cars crooked as they tried to drive a straight line.
Tumble weeds were traveling 60mph.
Then it rained some. 😀

Still cold but the winds have died down to a manageable speed.

I had a panic attack last night.

I'm not sleeping. I'm not showering regularly. My house is a mess. I'm wearing yesterday's clothes or getting dressed directly out of the dryer. My eating habits and weight are bad. And I'm pretty sure the barn rats are winning.

I really don't want to do school today.

But I will get through it.

One last time. I can't even think about fall.
