Making good progress, took out 2 bags of trash, recycling and the newspapers.
Brewed my coffee and did the dishes, now I am working on email and twitter.
Oh and I made a pedicure appointment for tomorrow and 4pm, then I may walk over and get my hair cut and then have dinner with friends at the new El Charo!! So excited.

Bills are paid and managed, Oh, I need to transfer some $, forgot about that. Ok, just quickly went and took care of that.
Finally got thru email and I refilled my water bottles, now I am working on twitter. And I need to go out and water the plants while it is still nice outside.

Got the plants watered and then closest up the house. So far the wind hasn't picked up so allergies are still fine.

Finally got my Lyft ride scheduled. Realized that I haven't riden since my new phone so ended up having to schedule it on my laptop, then finally! Lyft managed to update my account and I am back to normal.
So far I have cleaned my shower walls some while I was taking my shower, and got my coffee so I can work on my email and twitter.

Friday's Mission
http://www.flylady.net/c/fp.php?tzm=420
Wow, really late getting here, LOL. Was busy enjoying the beautiful day.
Yesterday I got my pedicure it was excellent, I noticed that the place I went seemed to handle a lot of elderly / medical needs people which was the review that I had read. I wanted someone who wouldn't hurt me when massaging my legs. My toes look wonderful and I got a lot of good lotion on my feed and legs. Must remember to go and make a yelp review.
Then went to El Charro for Mexican food, the new El Charro in Walnut Creek, who took over from the former El Charro in Layfayette. It wasn't exactly the same but was close. I already do review for them.
Now I am just working around the house not sure what chores will get done.

Saturday's Mission
http://www.flylady.net/c/fp.php?tzm=420
I sorted thru pajamas to see if there were any I wanted to get rid of. Don't know what made me pick that chore but that is what I did, LOL. The kitties loved it because it meant a new drawer was open that they don't generally get to explore. I realized that I need to do laundry to get the full effect of how many jammies I have, so that project is sort of on hold.
Since today we "Spring Forward", I hate daylight savings time, I was thinking of rotating my mattress, which means I should also change the sheets which made me think I should just run the comforter down to the laundry for a good wash.
So that is the plan so far, but first I am going to go and grab my coffee, read the paper and do my morning computer games.

Enjoyed my coffee and the paper, got email and twitter cleared. Heading off to deal with the kitchen. I didn't notice that I had sort of let it get out of control. Dishes first and then some other general cleanup.

Dishes done, counters and stove wiped down. Then I cleaned the kitty feeding station, new placemat, all new kibble and fresh water. Refilled the kibble container and got all the recycling put into their proper bins.
Time for some lunch!

Oh I forgot, I cleaned the toilet earlier as well, LOL.
It is starting to cool off so time to close up the house. Looks like I am going to get most of what I ordered from Safeway, coming between 5 and 7. Unfortunately, no coffee so thank goodness I have a big bag in freezer.

I only have jammies for medical visits. And a sort of nightgown-ish thing I can throw on when traveling.

What? Wait! The store had no coffee? Does this mean there is a coffee shortage I should be aware of? I can't live without my coffee. I have a small stockpile of coffee (along with toilet paper and paper towels. The 3 necessities of life) for these trying times.
Dipo, what is going on?!? Spill the (coffee) beans on this nasty rumor you started.

Hahahaha, Grooch, I am sure there is a ton of coffee at the store BUT... no Starbucks Breakfast Blend and I told them NO Substitutions. One time they gave me a different blend and I suffered thru drinking it but I wasn't happy.
I did have a big bag of coffee in the freezer so now I am going to have to buy a couple of bags to replace that because, like you, I cannot have no coffee in the house.

Sunday !! A day of rest and gratitude
Not sure if any chores will get done, working on my Sunday paper and other stuff. I did put away the dishes and make a nice mushroom omelet for brunch.
Now I am clearing email, etc, and enjoying my coffee

Finished off the paper and put the clean dishes away, then I emptied bad food from the fridge into the trash and then took 2 bags of trash to the bins and picked up the mail.

Juju, I like jammies so I have something on in case of earthquake, LOL. But a lot of the designers changed them to Lounge wear with the pandemic so you can wear them all day and "even run errands", LOL. Now that they have added side pockets I like them even more.
This morning I washed the dishes while my coffee brewed and now I am clearing email and twitter.
Going to start working on my list and see what I can get done. I think vacuuming the kitchen/rugs is the next thing to deal with.

Vacuumed the kitchen rug then ran the vac over the floors into the dining room / living room / and hallway. After I dumped the bin I then headed for the bathroom and got all the litter vac'd up in there.
Also did another bucket of water on the balcony plants

http://www.flylady.net/c/fp.php?tzm=420
Maybe that's the trick, water the plants and it will rain, LOL. We got a little rain last night and early morning but it is over for now. Might get some more later this week.
Got the coffee brewing, getting started on my list, but first I am checking email and twitter.

Refilled the hummingbird feed and bird bath, watered a couple of plants -- doesn't seem to be much rain on my plants.
Then grabbed my coffee and started the email.

We've been having loads of fun here. Garage door guy came out, garage is fixed. Two days later we had to call the septic people...our seepage tank was full. And it'd be Tuesday (this was Friday) before they got here so use as little water as possible. Mom went to my sisters. We spent the weekend eating cereal and sandwiches off paper plates/bowls and doing quickie sponge baths so we could at least flush the toilet. Loads of fun.
Darren called septic guy Monday to confirm when Tuesday and dude told him he'd hurt himself over the weekend and couldn't come, so gave him the number for another company. That guy was here 20 minutes after Darren got off the phone. Not to brag of anything, but I got to take a real shower and do dishes Monday, lol.
Yesterday was spent catching up on the stuff I had to skip over the weekend. Not a lot planned for today other than some regular chores. It's getting pretty windy (yesterday was worse) so no bike ride today, I did do the treadmill.

OMG, that is a "ton of fun", LOL.
I did the dishes while my food heated up for lunch. Also got email cleared and did some banking, paid a couple of bills.
Now finishing up on the computer and then I will see what I feel like doing next.

Thursday's Mission
http://www.flylady.net/c/fp.php?tzm=420
Didn't end up doing much more in the afternoon so hopefully will get more done today.
I did clear my HOA email and now have a sign I need to post about the Liquid amber spraying.
So far I went thru the jammies and got them sorted by season so I could put them away. Once I do the laundry and find the rest of them I will figure out which ones to get rid of but for now they are put away.
Then I cleaned the kitty box and brought a box out to use for packing up some of the hutch glassware. Also going to sort which glassware can be donated.
That's it for now, working on my one computer game where I get a benefit from 12 -1pm.

Got thru all the email and gathered several boxes so I can sort the glassware in my hutch. Also got a lunch delivery from Huckleberrys ... I just love their fried okra!!
And I am listening to my DayDrinking Podcast. Hmmm, I think I need to ride my bike next.

Went down to post the spraying and our landscaper had already posted it!! They are so good. So I picked up my mail and came back.
Remembered I haven't seen anything about my Real Estate Taxes yet so off to research that, I believe they are late if not paid by April 10, so I should have received a bill by now.
