Yesterday was an easy day really. I did two loads of washing one of which went out on the line. It didn't dry but it got some fresh air which was good. I did some of the ironing too which I was pleased about.
Son Dave came round to do some printing and we had a nice chat about this and that, fixing a date when he and Anna will come round again for supper. Then Sharon turned up, sorted out my hair and now I feel all neat and tidy again.
I didn't:
clean any windows
sort out five things - so ten today!
sort out the blue room
sort out five things - so ten today!
sort out the blue room
But I did:
give the bathroom a good clean
the aforementioned washing and ironing
cleaned the kitchen
. . . so I didn't entirely waste my time.
I was a bit spendy but it was need, not want. I paid Sharon, of course, and I got some descaling stuff for my Nespresso gizmo that seems to be slowing down somewhat. The official stuff is really expensive but there was a non-brand (alternative and much cheaper brand, anyway) on Amazon so I got that. It should come today and, assuming it does, I will be giving my Nespresso a descale straight away.
I guess one could argue that a Nespresso is not a need but, if I have one, I need to look after it properly!
(I was tempted to just use vinegar but when I Googled it, the perceived wisdom was not to in case it damages the tubes, etc. Shame!)
Today I will be popping back to the dentist to have the stitches taken out and the work checked over. I am sure it's fine. It doesn't hurt at all and I've been very careful to brush the site using the super-soft brush they gave me and to use the mouthwash.
Then I'm home for a while to do bits and bobs before going over to Lindsey's for personal training. I've asked her if she can focus on back strengthening and stretching stuff - she's really good and adapting things to personal circumstances so I am sure it will be very good.
And that's that! It's so nice to be getting back into some sort of routine again - I have really missed classes.
Have a lovely day, everyone. Stay warm and cosy and contented, whatever your plans. xx
I wince at the very thought of those stitches. Poor you, hope it's not too painful.
ReplyDeleteYou know what - it was very quick and totally painless. I was very pleased about that. xx
DeleteI'm sorry you had to have stitches., It sounds drastic.
ReplyDeleteGetting into routine again is good.
No, it wasn't really. Self inflicted in a way. It was just the first stage in some implant treatment, that's all.
DeleteI love routine. I suppose, having been a teacher all my adult lif, pretty much, I am bound to really. xx
Lovely day here today so might do some garden tidying at long last. Trying to decide if we will buy a new vacuum cleaner as the Shark one is useless! Also need to do a pile of ironing so that will be later! Catriona
ReplyDeleteYou've got the best of the weather. It's dull and damp here - not nice at all. xx
DeleteEven though you did not get all the list done, you still got most and had your haircut and a visit. Good going.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
Yes - it is so nice to have enough time for everything and not to feel pushed at all. xx
DeleteI think we have list making in common, Joy. I like to have a schedule of sorts to keep me on track with what I need (or want) to accomplish. As you said, probably a hold over from my teaching days. You had a very productive day!
ReplyDeleteLists are so very helpful - as long as they work for us rather than us working for them. I love my lists! xx
