Ok, so they didn't charge me twice, she just included everything on one bill. And I did check, there was only the one charge on my visa, yeah.
I needed to check on my account anyway since I was expecting a withdrawal from my retirement account that I would need to transfer over to my savings account that actually pays a good interest rate. So I got that transferred and then set up my new check register.
I have gotten my email cleared so now I need to deal with twitter and my computer games.

It's clean out your car and purse day! PLUS time to sweep and mop that kitchen floor.
I am hoping for a normal day, LOL, I have Bingo at 2pm and a Japanese Lunch at noon.
Should be a great day ... time for newspaper and yogurt.

Ok, excellent Japanese lunch, except I ordered all the things I was interested in and ended up with a huge amount of food, LOL. Good thing we have to-go containers. I ended up buying lunch because my order was the majority and splitting it wouldn't have been fair.
Then I got back and played Bingo, won once, and then caught up on the newspaper and computer games.
I did make a big list of things to possibly do today and this weekend, so I have done my Chewy and Safeway orders.
Now it's time to finish up email and twitter.

I was with you in spirit today, Dipo. We went to the sushi adjunct to the Morimoto at Sea restaurant on Holland America Nieuw Amsterdam. I had a spicy tuna roll, and Bigdog had some sort of octopus roll, and I ordered a single nigiri fatty tuna piece just to see what something at that price tasted like, and it was wonderful. The waitress only semi- embarrassed me by asking if I just wanted one.

Watered the balcony plants, cleaned up the kitchen, brewed some coffee, had some lunch and got the rest of my Safeway order unpacked and put away.
I have a chewy box out in the hallway but I am not ready to muscle it into the house and deal with it yet, LOL.
Now I am working on email and twitter.

Wow, I think those sunspots really did impact the internet. I had 68 spam emails, and they seemed to be the same 10-12 over and over. So odd.
Got email cleared off to read the paper.

Dishwasher going and I got the pushpins into the hallway. This involved pulling out the step stool and level, then putting the pushpins at correct intervals so I can hang 5-7 garlands depending on the season.
Then I put a "flag" in the center or a special wreath, like the Easter Bunny, so it is nice and festive for each season. Once I get this stuff back up I will be done until the fall.

My watch wanted me to take a walk, so I took my box of hallway decorations out and hung them up.
YEAH!! They are finally up and look great with the new gray background. And that task is finally!!! off my chore list, LOL.

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

The other mission -- we have moved back to the bathroom and one other room. Clear off the clutter from your bathroom countertops, put everything away; for the other room pick one that could use a 15 minute declutter of a drawer or cabinet.
I need to dustbust my bathroom, I sort of spilled litter when I was cleaning up the box, LOL. And I need to gather all the boxes to be recycled into one spot, I feel like they have multiplied all over!
for now off to make some coffee.

My watch wants a walk ... took out the recycling and old cat food and a box. Unpacked my kitty food and realized I was missing some normal foods so I did a Safeway order for tomorrow morning.
Checked in on my sister, she got a bad spider bite, so we cancelled her visit tomorrow.
Oh and I got thru email so now I am working on twitter.

After spending a good 45 minutes, connecting / reconnecting, rebooting, trying the printer and scan doctor, I have called for an appointment from the computer man.
My laptop has decided it has never heard of my printer, so annoying. So I am also making a list of all the things I want to know / need help with on my tablets, so the cost of the visit is worth it.
Now I am going to play games and watch TV.

Got the call and I have a 9.30 computer man appointment. I have my list of stuff going and I have cleaned up the printer area so that it is easily accessible.
Now I need to tackle the "box mountain" in the way of getting to all the cords, LOL. Normally I leave the box breakdown and haul out to my sister, she enjoys beating up the boxes, LOL, but since she canceled coming today I will take care of it.
Last night I made my pasta salad, it's so yummy, so I need to wash that pan and finish the kitchen clean-up.
And I ordered my dinner delivered so I don't have to get all "spiffed" up to leave the house, LOL.
So I am working on email, then boxes, then kitchen.

Email done, and the box mountain has been broken down and taken to the recycle bin. Wow that was a lot of boxes!!
My pan from last night is soaking in hot soapy water. So now it's time to do some computer stuff. I need to finish up the newsletter so it can be printed.

Newsletter is ready to go, just waiting for confirmation on the wording for one event from the Activities Manager. Then I can send it off to be printed and distributed.
When I moved Box Mountain out, I saw we had a bit of a mess, so I got that dustbusted. I also noticed that the underneath shelf on my desk is very dusty, LOL. I never go around there so I guess I will grab some pledge and do a little dusting.

Wednesday's Mission
http://www.flylady.net/c/fp.php?tzm=420
It's Anti-Procrastination Day plus time to check all the bathroom supplies to add to the shopping list for Thursday.
I am getting a late start because the computer man was here and got my printer working again. I was also able to ask him some other questions and he wiped out the $9 balance on my MCTR card. So I cut that up and put it in the shred bin! So happy that is done since I couldn't figure out how to use up the balance.
I did manages to dust the desk before he got here, LOL. And I got the coffee brewing, so now it's coffee, email, twitter and catch up on my routines.
Oh and I did a Safeway refund, I think they forgot a bag, I didn't get all the catfood I ordered so now I need to do a reorder.

Working on email, I seem to have a bunch, and twitter.
Guess it's time to send the Newsletter off for printing and distribution.
I was looking forward to dining in the dining room tonight, but apparently they aren't ready, LOL. So I ordered a delivery, so don't have to leave my apartment for another day. It's heaven!! Guess I will maybe do laundry on Friday.
Need to check in on my Sister, make sure she is ok from her spider bite. I swear she must have some sort of pheromone that attracts them!
Back to clearing email.

Still working on email and making up my new list of things to do.
