LOL, TNT, no combs in my purse but I know I have seen two different combs when I opened boxes to see what was in them, LOL. I will find them eventually.

Friday's Mission
http://www.flylady.net/c/fp.php?tzm=420
Been busy all morning. Had my sister come over to help with a few things. We moved the hutch to it's permanent place, then I had her organize the balcony so I can at least get out there and she was able to put the heavy things up on the shelves that I couldn't manage.
I took her to breakfast and then we hit the bank. I needed some quaters for the laundry. I have some somewhere, but once again not sure where they got put. I swear I put them in my coin purse in my purse but they are not there.
Then we got the two new TV's out of their boxes and the mattress turned on the bed. Now I am putting on the new lovely pressed sheets that I had kept out and I can send the other ones off to the laundry. It costs a bit but I love how they are ironed and so nice and crisp from the cleaners.
PLUS, my sister got me one of those magnetic screens!! I love it, and it fits perfectly on the balcony door so I can have it open and not lose a cat. I am keeping and eye on them though to make sure they don't try to pry it away from the thumbtacks.
Finally I got her account set up on my bank account so I can easily transfer money to her ( I have been thinking about a monetary gift to go with the other gifts I have for her for helping me move).
So, I have been busy and I am tired, LOL but apparently the Activities Director wants to come by and show me the schedule, it's like being on a cruise ship so I am not sure needs to show me.
And then I have Comcast coming at 3pm. Hope that goes quickly, don't want to miss dinner, LOL

Saturday's Mission
http://www.flylady.net/c/fp.php?tzm=420
Ran the dishwasher last night, first time in a year, LOL. It made some racket so I need to see if there is a spinning thing that is bent or something. Just unloaded it and the dishes are clean, so it works.
Trying to do my normal routine this morning as well as unpack and stuff.
Got the pantry organized a bit and got the kitty food shelf restocked. Still haven't found the old kitty food, but I had a chewy box delivery I could open and use to restock, so the kitties feel like they are back to their normal food routine.
Comcast is coming today at 1pm to hook up the other TV and then we will get rid of the "broken" TV and that should be nice.
I am working on getting the boxes out to the edges so I can at least see across the room from my temporary desk in the dining room.
Working my way thru email, twitter, my Thursday podcast and various other things.

Making progress, email / twitter / podcast are done. And I have 6 milkcartons full of kitchen stuff and so far I have managed to empty 2 of them.
Plus I emptied a bunch of other bins/ boxes. Naturally I found a bunch of decorator items and not the things I really would like to find, LOL.
Comcast man is here !!! YEAH !! and he said the work I needed for today was set up wrong but he is going to get me set up with a TV in the living room and help me put the new one into the bedroom.

Sunday !! A day of gratitude.
Comcast man was great, even tho he had to deal with about 5 other comcast employees they finally got me set up for 2 TV's.
And he helped me fix the screen that I saw was coming off my living room window. I couldn't get it back in, turns out it was because it wasn't in the top properly. But he was a strong young man and popped it right in, LOL.
Today I have dinner plans and so a bunch of the bins will go back to their home.
Still working on the kitchen and even tho I dislike Amazon I had to sign up for prime so I could get the safety straps for the new TV's today. At some point I will take off the painters tape I used to secure them from Sylvestor and not worry about them getting broken.
Also had to get a Safeway delivery, I don't seem to have any trash bags so that is also scheduled for today.
One set of my turn tables came today so I can set up the bathroom under sink cabinet. I also need to water plants.
But for now I am tired the kitties got me up at 6am, so off to read the Sunday paper.

Plants are watered and I had the door open because my sister got me that magnet screen.
HAHAHAHAHAHA, both kitties seem to have figured out how to make it open at the magnets....
So now the door is closed and the fan has been turned on to circulate the air.
AND I found box 24 so I have shoes and I was able to hang up my clothes because it also had a bunch of hangers.

Yay for the fortune of finding box 24. My box 24 would be 3' x 5' x 6'. I have SO many shoes.

I swear TNT, it's like a cruise ship, there seems to be stuff happening all the time.
I haven't done any of it but the ladies at brunch were encouraging me to come and play bingo, LOL.
I will check out some stuff when I feel like I can get around in my house.

Monday !!! Happy Memorial Day !!
Sort of took the morning off because I was feeling achy and tired yesterday, so I read the paper and then took a nap. Sylvester is doing the same, currently lounging in the sun on a window ledge.
Today I might switch my desk over here where I currently have the dining room table. I never used it as a dining room table and I sort of like working from here on my laptop.
And I got one set of my turntables so I can set them up under the sink in the bathroom. And my goal has been to get the milkcartons emptied. I started with 6 and have 3 left. They are mostly pantry foods and stuff so we shall see.
Off to finish clearing email and twitter.

Done with email and I found a box that had my vitamins. I am wondering if that is why I feel so tired lately, I normally take them everyday but haven't had any for a week!
Anyway that was excellent. Then I refilled my ice cube trays and one fell from the freezer so now my kitchen floor has been mopped, LOL. Annoying but not a real problem.
Off to get my Memorial Day Hotdog!!

Ordered some puck lights to put in the lower kitchen cabinets. I really like the cherry wood cabinets but never realized that you can't see anything in them, LOL.
Got thru the paper and now working on email and twitter.
Going to move my desk over to where the dining room table is and see how it feels. And my goal today is to get the pantry set up properly so the milk cartons are done.

Traded the desk and dining room table places in the living room. I think it is going to work out well. I have a ceiling fan / light over the desk now and I can hang my "chandelier" over the dining room table.
It is close enough the kitties can jump to the top of the bookcases (which has been important to them in the past) and the printer will be close enough to just get up and use.
Next up is the pantry.

Wednesday's Mission
http://www.flylady.net/c/fp.php?tzm=420
Got some of my orders so I can try out the over the door coat racks and the pull out cabinet drawers. Will work on that later.
For now I am off to grab some breakfast. Hopefully I can pick up 2 of everything so that I can skip going down tomorrow.

So I got my 2 over the door coat racks. I wasn't expecting to have to put them together, that was fun. So they turned out well. Then I put the timer on the nightstand lamp, hope that works because it is hard to get back to that plug.
Then I tracked down the pants I was wearing last weekend to see if my credit card was in the pocket, nope. So now I am trying to get my rent paid before I go and report it as lost.
I have been checking and no one has used it and I suspect it might be on the floor of my sisters car but she hasn't responded to my emails, etc.
Today, I swear, I am going to deal with all the pantry stuff, LOL.
Off to finish email and twitter.

Got thru email, twitter, etc. and I did finally get more stuff in the pantry.
The next milk carton seems to be pots/pans for the kitchen so I cleared out another smaller milk carton that was in the kitchen. I am having trouble figuring out where to put stuff in the lower kitchen cabinets.
I guess I could make one the "baking / bowls " area. Although I need to put up the puc lights and open the box that has some pull out cabinet drawers.
This part seem so slow!

Thursday's Mission
http://www.flylady.net/c/fp.php?tzm=420
Slow start this morning but I have a lot going on ... at 2pm I have a chat with my financial guy, I just want to know some good rates on CD's for my house money. Hopefully that won't take long because ....
it's Happy Hour out in the courtyard, Hahahahahaha.
Then I have a HOA Board meeting tonight at 6:30pm. I am planning to resign as President and offer to stay as an unpaid consultant to offer help until they get the election done.
So that's it for now. Getting my coffee and dealing with email, etc.

Got thru email and twitter, ran down to the "happy hour". It was hysterical. Bunch of old people watching a hawaiian guy (I think he was hawaiian) singing (he was pretty good) while having plastic cups of wine with cheese / salami and crackers.
Had a bit and then went to schedule my trip to return my comcast stuff tomorrow at 10 am.
Going to work on the kitchen now.
