Pleasant Weekend
I like coming out of a weekend feeling that I accomplished some things and still had time to relax. I didn’t do just a whole lot of relaxing this weekend, but I accomplished a whole lot of things, and still played a little online Scrabble. I’ve already listed my accomplishments of Friday and Saturday. Sunday […]
A Profitable Day
I did so much today! I got up at 6:30 and went for a walk — about 20 minutes, and approximately 1 mile. Haven’t done that in years. Then I put in the path lights that I bought the other day. I filled the dozen or so birdfeeders in the back yard, planted some herbs, […]
The Irony of Life’s Juxtapositions
Tonight started visitation for the kids, so I was on my own for supper and after. I have many, many things to do this weekend; foremost among the items on the list is writing the articles to complete my April quota. Anyway, so I decided to go out for supper, so I wouldn’t have to […]
What a Weekend!
I got a lot done — not everything I wanted, but a lot. And I’m coming to the realization that I probably have far too optimistic an expectation of what I can get done in one weekend. LOL. Bit slow, huh? I got four articles written and submitted to the website I write for. I’ll […]
Still Running on Overdrive
It’s still terribly busy in my life, but I can see some lights at the end of the tunnel. Taxes will be out of my hair this weekend. I can put the flannel sheets back in the attic and bring down the percale. My utility bill should be very low this month, as I’m running […]
The Best Laid Plans…
… of mice and men gang aft agley. And boy, did my weekend gang agley! I had to stay late at work, so the grocery shopping took until 7:30, which meant that by the time we got supper and bathed the kidlets, there was no time for laundry or games or a story. After I […]
Planning for the Weekend
I have a lot of things to accomplish this weekend. I have some herbs and seeds to plant, and some flowerbeds to weed. I have a house to tidy up. I have articles to write — I need to finish 20 of them by the end of the month. I have taxes to do, and […]
How I Did on my 2004 New Year’s Resolutions
I made these resolutions last December as I started thinking about the new year. As the year has only a few weeks remaining, it’s time to look at how I did and where I want to go next year. Today: How I Did. 10. I will complete all my gift shopping for next year by March first, taking […]
Trimming Down My Life
Well, I did it. I have successfully transferred posts and deleted almost all of my extraneous blogs. I’m down to eight, one of which is still being “liquidated.” When I finish it, I’ll have only seven. I think I had fourteen when I decided to cut back. I may decide to cut back further, if […]
The Best-Laid Plans…Gang Aft Agley
Well, I got a lot done last night, but not all I had hoped. We got to basketball practise exactly on time, and the younger son and I went to the library. He’s loving this, and my older son is jealous. I did explain to son #1 that when son #2 starts his basketball practise, […]
