Monday's Mission
https://www.flylady.net/daily-mission
It's Home Blessing Day AND we have moved to the kitchen where it is time to get a duster and look for cobwebs.
Getting a late start today, I need to google why my coughing comes back with a vengeance at night and keeps me from sleeping. I think I finally got to sleep around 3ish.
I have some office chores, pay rent, pay taxes - find a couple of stamps, but my main chore today is to sweep the kitchen and office, and bathroom, then vacuum up all the kitty litter I find, LOL.
Off to clean the kitchen and start the coffee.

Kitchen is cleaned and I swept the floor out into the office area for vacuuming later, LOL. Got my coffee and now I will work my way thru email.
Oh and I changed out the table runner to spring instead of winter, LOL.

Wednesday's Mission
https://www.flylady.net/daily-mission
It's Anti-Procrastination Day AND time to clean out the fridge - don't forget the vegetable bin and the door - for expired stuff.
Got a late start since I was busy yesterday! It is so annoying that I am totally worn out from normal activity. Yesterday I went down to the Bistro for lunch, then took a nap so I could go out for my friends 70th Birthday Celebration at Outback.
It was so fun and a great time, but I was exhausted when I got home and started coughing badly! Took some time before it settled and I could go to sleep.
So not much on the agenda for today. I cleaned up the kitchen, brewed the coffee, refilled water bottles and got the dishwasher running so I don't run out of kitty plates.
Now I will work on email/socials, pay a few bills and then go back to bed for a rest and the paper and computer games.
Off to email

Thursday's Email
https://www.flylady.net/daily-mission
It's Errand Day AND time to scrub the countertops!
So I got my list done, did my Safeway order, cleaned up the kitchen, got the trash ready to go out - I don't want to get so behind like I did while I was sick, brewed the coffee, unloaded the dishwasher and unpacked the chewy box.
So now I am working on email/socials and some office stuff. I have to make sure my money transfer went thru, then pay the taxes so I can drop them into the mail tonight.
One thing on my list -- I just realized I still have my Christmas wreath on the door, LOL. I think it is time to deal with my hallway decor.
And today I feel like I am finally well!!!!!! Just have an occasional cough, which is very annoying. So this was a 25 day illness!!!
Off to do email...

EMail done, Safeway came and I put it away, Taxes have been paid and I am taking them down to the mail shortly.
Also took out the newspapers and trash... oh shoot I forgot to tell the front desk that the trash chute was full and overflowing.
Off to dinner and to email the front desk.

Blasted awake by a Fire Alarm!!! And it's raining and must have been steady since there was a puddle at my patio door. Threw a towel over that.
Closed the one window where it always rains inside and the other one is somehow protected - it's at an angle.
Fed the kitties, grabbed the paper and some yogurt and back to bed.

Friday's Mission
https://www.flylady.net/daily-mission
It's Clean your PUrse and Car DAY and it's time to Mop the kitchen.
Finally up and about. Got the kitchen cleaned and dishwasher loaded, coffee brewing, then I went out on the balcony to check the water damage.
The front half, by the railing, had wet towels which are now draped all over the living room to dry. A "mousie" got wet and squeezed it to bring in to dry and the squeaker went off and won't stop!!! I have it stuffed under a pillow to keep the noise down. The chair cushion only got wet on the seat so I flipped it the back of the chair to dry. All the stuff up against the building is dry.
That means it wasn't a heavy rain. It takes a lot of heavy rain to come down through the 3 balconies to get my bedroom window and those things wet.
So now my plan for the day is to get ready for Housekeeping tomorrow. I want to do a quick vac of the bedroom/office rugs. And dinner at 5ish. I need to think about what else will need to be done.
Oh while out on the balcony I did grab the spring wreath so that is on the door now.

LOL, it is a toy mouse that has a squeaker. Nala loves them, captures them, rabbit kicks them and then leaves them for dead, hahahahaha.
No real mouses here but I will ask her "where is your mousie" and she will go and get one.

Saturday .. a day for play
I cleaned up the kitchen and started putting stuff away for my visit from Housekeeping. My sister is here taking away all the stuff I have been gathering for over a month. I had asked her to bring me Egg McMuffin and hash browns, LOL.
Once the rain is over I will need to redo my balcony because I had her take one of my Jade plants. It had toppled over in its pot so I thought she could plant it in her backyard.
Working on email and all the chores I have for her, LOL.

Got the house back together, well mostly I may have a few small things that haven't made it back to their normal place.
Just pulled all the towels in off the balcony since it started raining.
And it is great to have the house all clean again!

Sunday ... a Wet Wonderful day to Read ...
Once again it started raining before I got the towels in and the patio door closed, LOL. It's not raining hard so I am hoping the towels don't get soaked. I got the door closed and a towel to wipe up the floor and put on the threshold for any drips from the door/blinds.
Cleaned up the kitchen, got ready to go to brunch, made the coffee and now I am working on email.

Monday's Mission
https://www.flylady.net/daily-mission
It's Home Blessing Day AND we are now on to the bathroom and the guest room. Time to get rid of old products in the shower and then de-clutter the guest room.
I had a difficult night with coughing but finally got some sleep so I woke up really early, fed the kitties, played some games and then took a nap.
Feel much better now but since it is so late my original plans have changed. I got the kitchen cleaned up, the dishwasher is running and the coffee brewed and sitting on my desk.
My orig plan was to change out the bed entirely, take a shower, print out all the replacement minutes, newsletter and bylaws for the new book AND get the balcony changed around.
But since it is so late I am moving the balcony and bed to tomorrow and will just do the printing and personal cleanup before I go down for dinner. If I didn't like the dinner I would have moved the shower but I like it, so the bed has to wait.
Off to do email and printing.
