Oooooooh, my martini glasses and shaker came!!! In the biggest box for such a small order, LOL; guess I am going to make a martini tonight. Opening box.

And my new battery organizer, I am so excited to get that put together.

Put together my batteries, and then ended up dusting the shelves and moving some stuff around. Now I have a bunch of really good packing materials that I need to find a home for, I don't want to just throw it away.

And the kitties have a giant box to entertain them. And I have a bunch of stuff to store/take to the trash.

Tuesday's Mission
http://www.flylady.net/c/fp.php?tzm=420

Ended up going out for Chipotle dinner with a friend, then we went to Krispy Kreme to get a donut desert and their drive thru was closed!!! Plus they changed their hours to close at 9pm. Since you can't sit inside you would think they would keep the drive-thru open, but they are having people come in and pick up their orders instead, seems odd to me. Finally went and got some carrot cake at Whole Foods, LOL.

So today I am washing my new martini glasses so I can make a martini tonight, LOL. Also going to finally start my taxes and ride my bike.

Off to grab my coffee and finish up email and twitter.

Oh and I am starting to watch Supernatural, it started from the beginning today and I have seen the middle and end so want to see how it all began.

Been doing normal, boring every day stuff here. Laundry, cleaning, cooking, yard work.

Today we are having Caleb and his girlfriend for dinner and this weekend, my sis and her family and Kota and her bf for my sisters birthday. Caleb and his gf have to work.

Heh, Supernatural is my treadmill walking show to watch. When the show gets really good, I don't even notice I've watched two or three episodes! Though I did damn near kill myself watching Yellow Fever...don't care how many times I've seen that one, every time the cat appears I howl with laughter, not a good thing when my clumsy self is keeping up a brisk walk, lol.

Started my taxes and already there is an issue. I am so annoyed. For the first time ever, last year I did not print my returns, I saved them to the "whereever TurboTax said", but now they can't be accessed, it says they are corrupt. Of course they are!

Anyway I went ahead and started them manually and then when I went to save the file, it wanted me to pay again. The "chat person" says that I have somehow upgraded my account and the only way to get rid of the upgrade is to start over!!!

I went ahead and closed it out, I don't have all the paperwork yet anyway, so when I go to do it again I will just pay the upgrade and then ask for a refund.

Moving on to making sure I have all my deductions set up, that won't make me angry, LOL.

Oh, I should go ride my bike.

Kookliebird, I want to know how computers always know the worst times to have to update, LOL, it is so annoying.

Got my new list going and after I finish lunch and my coffee riding the bike is the first thing up! Also going to make hummingbird food and egg salad. I have scheduled martini's for 5pm, LOL.

Still working on email, but I got my bike ride done, made some hummingbird food and in the middle of making some egg salad for lunches.

Also finally put the Christmas decorations away, I had gathered them all up before but they hadn't made there way to storage. REstocked the cat food cabinet and got some plastics cleaned up for recycling.

Got a call from an old friend to let me know an old friend had died. I am the youngest in this group, from back in the 80's and 90's so I was thinking it is about that time when I will start to lose old friends. Was nice to catch up and it is sad that Suzanne has died, but I haven't been involved with this group much since most moved back East.

I did finally make my martini to have while I watched The Amazing Race. I do need to get some other things to mix with it.

Thursday's Mission
http://www.flylady.net/c/fp.php?tzm=420

Got the hummingbird feeder refilled and hung, did the dishes and gathered the boxes from the porch. My chewy box came and my new watches. It is so nice to have a watch that has the correct time on my wrist instead of only twice a day, LOL.

Now I am clearly my email and all the normal things I do at the beginning of the day, been in my bedroom til now. Having some lunch and then will see what I need to do.

Thank you Mameblanche, it was odd since that is my old gang from 40 years ago. She was the first to go and I had forgotten I was the baby of the group and had lost touch with almost all of them.

Just spent forever, it seemed forever, to update my website / password list. And since I am getting old, LOL, I increased the font to 12 so I could read them, hahahahahaha.

I have also gotten my paperwork from TDAmeritrade and AMX for my taxes. Off to see if I can find more tax info -- still need to check Discover and BofA.

Friday's Mission
http://www.flylady.net/c/fp.php?tzm=420

It's a beautiful day, getting a late start because I was up around 4am, don't know why, so I watched Australian Open and played games then around 8 I decided to take a nap, LOL.

I have refreshed the kitty and birdbath water, watered a couple of plants and pruned one. I need to go out there and sweep the balcony and water all the other plants but will do that later.

Now I am listening to my DayDrinking Podcast while I clear email and twitter and track down more tax info.

Saturdays' Mission
http://www.flylady.net/c/fp.php?tzm=420

Haven't done much yet, just enjoying my coffee while I finish off my podcast and clear my email - which is done.

Off to check twitter, grab the paper and go play some computer games.

Since I am going out to dinner for Mexican tonight I want to gather all the trash, recycling stuff so I can run it out to the bins. Also want to grab the mail.

So far I just need to grab the paper and get started.

Ok, had some lunch and then did the dishes, refilled some water bottles and wiped down all the counters.

And replaced the batteries in my kitchen flashlight.

Back to twitter.

Got thru all my email and did the HOA email. I had planned to go there because I didn't receive any notification about our board meeting... They had a covid outbreak so couldn't do the things needed for the meeting, so we are postponed until next week.

So that works out nicely! I have time to work on the financials and other stuff before we have the meeting.

Now I am off to finish up twitter and track down tax documents.

Also waiting for my Safeway delivery, I am hungry, had a half a cookie for lunch because my delivery has sushi, hahahahaha.

Email and twitter is cleared. just finishing up my podcast and trying to think what to make for dinner.

I keep thinking I should have a delivery but I hate that the delivery companies screw the restaurants so much.

Maybe I will make some spaghetti with meatballs, I should go pull some meatballs out of the freezer and see how that feels later. I guess I could order a pizza, they last me for several days, LOL.

WHO eats half a cookie?

I have my tax prep appointment for March 15th so I am all set when my info arrives. SS is here; investment stuff is not! It is almost always here by the first week of March so I am counting on that!
