Daily Project Round 10

[Mumtobabyhavoc]

We are a kind and welcoming group supporting each other in our daily tasks to organize and declutter and stay on top of all that needs doing. We share our accomplishments and brain dump our to-do lists in a friendly chat over coffee manner. 😊☕️

All that looks lovely @Mumtobabyhavoc 😍
Get some sleep woman!!

You achieve loads @watchPhone! Sorry to hear mood's a bit low 😞 Are you getting enough sleep?

We're fast approaching birthday season too. I must start thinking about gifts after payday. Also I had a letter from pensions reminding me when my govt pension is due. Thanks for that....another eight years. Marvellous. Are they going all out reminding people not to retire I wonder? Someone's having A Sort Out by the sounds of it as I got a letter telling me to check that my entitlement to tax credits is £0.00 many years after my youngest turned eighteen.

I should probably do some MN 'life admin' today and I must do some spreadsheet updates for work too. My eyes will be crossed by lunchtime. I will need a cliff top walk this afternoon to blow it all away.

A cliff top walk sounds glorious @WintersFrog - hope you got one.
Poor Havoc, hope she's on the mend soon.

I'm so snowed under a work, it's bonkers, I'm still reeling from the stuff up I made last week. I know it's due to too many plates spinning, I have a week off in Oct so just need to get through a few more crazy weeks and it should level out again. Then it builds to Christmas crazy levels! Yay!

The bathroom fitters are done for the day, I've just been wiping up dust. Should finish early next week. I do hope so.

🫂 @RunningKatie It's all go at your house! I did not get my cliff walk yesterday in the end but I had a wander through nearby woods today instead because I had cabin fever. We're really lucky being ten minutes drive from both so can ring the changes.

Swimming tomorrow and gym class Fri. It's helping my knees quite a lot. I am quite tired!

Got people coming to look at mother's furniture tomorrow and I am hopeful that they will take it away. Babysteps are getting me there.

Need to get dinner started. Last night we ate quite late because I put baking potatoes in the bottom oven but heated the small top oven so when I checked them they were understandably only lukewarm. Microwave came to the rescue. Never as nice microwaved but it did the job.

I must get off my backside!

Hope you are okay @RunningKatie . I hate it when stuffups happen at work- for me it means sleepless nights writ large.

Hope everyone is okay and fine.

sorry for my silence. It's been a very busy week and we had some serious life admin with difficult and unexpected googlies thrown in. But, for now, it seems that it will settle. Tomorrow another big day, but that ought to be ironing out last minute minor issues with any sort of luck. Hoping to breathe a sigh of relief by Friday.... .

I have been utlising distraction techniques very intensely. Mainly by watching youtube channels about cleaning etc. I'm planning to commit myself to 15 minutes decluttering a day until the first of January and seeing how far I get.....

Best wishes everyone.

Spilt half a pack of black pepper into my curry by accident 😩🙃🤧🤧🤧 so that's dinner delayed here

Luckily DD is happy with biscuits, her new obsession

👋👋 To all - I am on and off MN for now, so might be back in a while but wish you all well with life and projecteering - bathrooms, cliff top walks, holidays and work - but through it all this lovely thread is here

Wishing little havoc better!

It sounds like September has hit everyone here pretty hard in various ways. Sending hugs and solidarity to all 💐 💐 I've mostly been working and not really finding time for anything else. We can now use the oven in the kitchen (had I mentioned it?) so can eat slightly more decently. Maybe another week before the kitchen is over?!

Hello everyone. 🙂
My tasks for today were to vacuum and get a load of laundry done. I did a general tidy as well, but nothing strenuous.

It was a holiday today, Truth and Reconciliation Day. I took Havoc out to an event with First Nations dancing, singing and drumming.

The traditional dress is called regalia. Wearing an orange shirt is encouraged and many people wear one with the message, Every Child Matters. Orange Shirt Day started first.

@WinterFrogs sleep is good - apart from when SpiritDoggo wants to go outside in the middle of the night to look at the moon and sniff at the air. No howling though 😄I think it is the change of season that has got to me this year. Thank you for asking 😄

Today

• one dismantled wardrobe needs breaking up into smaller bits to fit into car to go the tip - so glad it is out of the bedroom. A weekend job I think.
• I had to fill up my car this morning - I hadn't realised that fuel had gone up SO MUCH
• When i was clearing out the wardrobe I found a couple of redundant laptops/notebooks - I am sure I'll remember why I abandoned them when I try to switch them on 😄In fact I'll do that now. OK, 1 very dead battery and one outdated operating system to be sorted.
• out for dinner tonight so need clean clothes, I may need to get the iron out or be casually dishevelled😄
• booked service and MOT for car for next week
• I need to tidy my desk of all the spreadsheets Ive been reconciling - such a mess 😄
• just spent half an hour looking for my...............phone 😃
• Also need to clean a pair of trainers.

I am absolutely moving towards not going out 😄but I must, as I resisted other people joining us and making it a bigger evening, have a good one, SoE
