Day 41 (Month 2-10)
Late start all around today. Off to pay bills, then home to make lunch and finally settle down to cleaning for today. Put off consolidating the TPV stuff yesterday, but it has to go out tonight, so no more procrastinating!
UPDATE ONE: Ran some errands, made Newell lunch (he’s not feeling well today, so he stayed home), washed some dishes…but still can’t find my motivation. I don’t remember where I left it!
Maybe the dice can help. Downstairs in the living room for an hour and a half. Tried to re-roll the duration, because I didn’t think there was that much to do, but the dice insisted. I suppose this means I should try that spot remover a friend gave me all over the carpet. It’s intended for occasional spots, but I think it does work, so I will see what it can do to my horribly spotted carpet. At least that is kind of restful and non-ambulatory…
UPDATE TWO: Didn’t get very far with the carpet, as I ran out of clean rags and had to stop to wash them. Instead I went through the Toy Box and separated out several puzzles and games to add to the TPV pile. I’m up to two bags of clothes and four boxes of other stuff.
I also found a few collectible items like Hook and Beetlejuice Colorform sets that I thought I might put up on eBay. Maybe I’ll at least get back what I spent on them.
No pictures today…and no ambition to finish three hours. I blame Newell. When he is home, I don’t want to spend all my time cleaning…even if he is taking a nap.
But I did pay bills, and make him lunch, so I feel I have had a nice wifely day. I am not going to stress over not doing three hours.
DAILY WRAP UP: 1 hour 30 minutes in Living Room.
STEALTH UPDATE: Okay, one picture. Just can’t believe I had this much stuff to give away!
