Cleaning-
OK. Here’s the thing with the cleaning. I did a TON of cleaning this month, but very little of it was the cleaning I put on this list. Instead, I basically did a deep spring cleaning on my downstairs. I had a long list of deep clean projects and did most of them. My sunroom windows still need to be done, my wood floors could use some attention, and I didn’t vacuum the furniture. Other than that, I did everything. Considering that’s more than I have done in all the time we have lived here, I think that is pretty good. Moving forward, I am going to try to focus on a room a week or month and “spring clean” the upstairs either in that focus period and/or do a marathon in the fall, like I did downstairs this month. I also used natural, non toxic cleaning products throughout.
- Finish office bookshelves Haven’t even thought about it.
- Work on garage on weekends with hubs NO
- Get the baby’s swingset installed! Want this done for spring Nooo. Hopefully next month.
- Closet Still no.
- Hang photos I hung most of them…. I think there are still three over there leaning against the wall to be put up. The hammer got swiped for putting together the table. And a few more that I need to get frames for before I can hang them.
- Weight loss I am maintaining well. No loss. Though GS cookies and cadburries may have something to do with that. I am thinking about another smoothie fast after my birthday, then I will be staying with my mom for a month, which will be a primarily vegan diet. Hopefully I can knock a few more pounds off before summer.
- I have a lot of dr appts to make. Oh My God, I didn’t! Not one! This is so bad….
- Read read read! I’ve read a couple of books that I can think of right now…
- Green focus on the kitchen again this month – there are still a couple things I need to tackle.
- Reach out to a couple friends – must do
I did. I emailed I think 6 friends: - One in town friend got right back to me, and we set up a date for next month.
- One out of town friend emailed me right back, and I found out all kinds of things going on in her life I really should have been aware of.
- One out of town friend emailed me back to tell me that she was going to respond when she had more time, but I haven’t really heard more from her.
- Nothing from the rest… which of course makes me wonder why. Were they busy? Are they mad? Do they not care? Am I annoying or intruding on them… And so forth. It’s the anxiety I live with. But at least I tried, right? But then I am left with all the questions and the annoying limbo of what to do now. Do I keep pestering? Wait a while and try again? Leave it be? Oh well. I made the effort.
