There is comfort is coming here and finding I'm not the only one struggling to tackle what I want to do. Easter decor is corralled but not wrapped/packed up yet. I can easily do that tomorrow morning. DH is now working both days this weekend, so project plans for tonight will hold until tomorrow when I'm home alone. Goal = cleared tops of things. Dining room table back to just the place settings and not the past two days' mail, magazines, etc. Kitchen counters, etc.

Beloved Warrior - Since I have never had luck with posting a photo unless it's already online, I looked on amazon.com for those wipes and they have a Vitamin C one, but not the Coconut ones. (And that deal was apparently a great one since 33 of the V-C ones are $7.99 and i got 60 for $3.99 ...) I saw one that is now sold on Ebay (so you can see the packaging).

Good Morning!

Well, I'm going to set a timer and hit all the clutter spots this morning. I'm leaving the house about 9am... so I have 3 hours -- no 2.5, I have to shower and pack too. Then I'll be heading out for a week away to :celebrate: I turn 61 today. I sure hope this will be the year of more discipline (maybe I'll even grow up a little) :lol:

Nationalparker: I picked up some at Walmart. They probably are not the exact ones you have... but, I'll give them a try.

See you all in the next thread. OH! I got the pink book from the library - mine didn't get here yet. So I'll be taking it as reading material this weekend. ENJOY!
:dance:

Happy Birthday, BelovedWarrior! Enjoy your time away!

OK, it's noon here. I just did 4 hours out in the yard. Mostly just misc. weeding, etc. Some of the ground is not soft enough to dig yet. I figure this time of the year anything I do moves me forward. I won't get back in the yard until next week.

Until then, I continue my 10 minutes a day decluttering and keep my laundry and dishes current each day. I notice my life is much smoother when I do and that leaves more time to focus on myself.

I have a small project going. I pulled some type of baby cart from near the dumpster in Glenwood last fall. I figured I could fix it up and make a few bucks. Last time I was over I loaded it into our big vehicle and it eventually made it's way over here. I pulled it out before DH went back over and brought it in the house. I got air in the tires (they are holding) and started the clean up. I found a broken handle, probably why it was at the dumpster. I found the company online and emailed them. I've had a response and I sent back pictures. The part may be "covered". We shall see, but what I did find is that brand new the retail is $899.00. Wow. It's worth fixing even if I purchase the part. The Facebook yard sales are hot for selling. I'll let you all know the end result.

Just a super quick note to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Beloved Warrior! May this next 365 day trip around the sun be a grand one! Better check-in tomorrow. I know I've missed you on your trip, but the happy wishes are winging over to ya!

One of the things I did when I wasn't posting here was get caught up on checking credit cards -- yay! That's the first time in many months that I've been caught up there.

I did a bunch of work on email yesterday, but since I wasn't keeping track, here, I don't know exactly how much progress I made. Time to start keeping track again, because it's motivating!
