What's on your agenda for today?

Well the snow stopped and then we got beautiful ( cold) sunny afternoon, so I took the charity bags to the shop after all..and did the weekly supermarket shopping as well while I was out. Not long got back..with... Belgian Dark chocolate cake as well ( I blame Rose for making me eat cake) ;)
 

Today I'm going to sort my receipts from last year, as the first step in preparing my income tax return. Then I'm going to do research for my next blog post. After those two hours are up, I'm going to read for a while and take a nap! Love Saturdays!
 

Vivjen, I hope your ceiling project is progressing smoothly. If my ceiling starts to need paint, I sure couldn't do it as I get dizzy when I get to the top of the ladder. Right now, I'm checking my ceilings just in case.
 
I'm thinking of investing in paper clothing, the pile just keeps growing and I don't think I have much room left, so, either today or tomorrow laundry gets done. Likely today, within a short time from now. Sigh, just feels like such the effort considering, I have to go up and down on an elevator.
 
It's a nuisance, April, but think about how good it will feel to be done with that chore:)

Almost forgot that I'm dogsitting later this afternoon and overnight. That wouldn't do at all! It's a beautiful, sunny and warm day here so *my* dog will probably want to spend the rest of the day outdoors.
 
I'm staying inside today and cleaning the house because it's too cold to go outside for anything!!

The sun is shining but it's blustery with snow blowing around and a low temperature of -14c.
 
it's raining buckets again today, so no walk for me. I need some better "rain-wear" have the jacket but pants get sopping wet;) Ok, so, I will read for sure, play on here for sure, and have a new game (hidden object) to play, and a new puzzle, new to me;) All in all, my sis & I are stocked up on food, and I'm feeling really grateful today. Just to have a nice, warm home, and all my needs;)
 
I have done the worst ceilings...tomorrow I thought I would move on to carpet cleaning; less strain on my poor arms...

I wouldn't mind so much if I still had the machines inside my apt and I didn't have to keep going up and down several times especially since these machines don't have a separate compartment for me to add my vinegar to the rinse cycle and I need to make another run down just for the rinse setting, not necessary, but, I like the extra benefits of the vinegar rinse.. Oh the horror of it all. LOL. Anyway, I went and got two loads going already, so that chore will soon be done and over with. I think when I move, I'll try to make sure my next place has a washer and dry inside my apt like my previous place.

gosh darn it, the buzzer is about to go off for me to make the run for the rinse cycle. LOL!
 
Maybe you can at least find a place that has washers where you add the Downey/vinegar whatever rinse in the beginning. My sis's washer does that and it's no newbie;)

Most newer complexes have those washer/dryers, not sure why this complex chose to have these antiquated ones even though we have the updated no coin pay systems. I'm in my fifth year living here, we'll see what happens when time comes around for me to renew the lease, if they go up nearly another $100 again this time around, I will for sure be moving though I really love the location, but, enough is enough.
 
Oh dear April , I've never lived in a place where you have to go and do your washing outside your home, I have only ever seen that on American sitcoms where they have a communal laundry area in an apartment block...I would hate that, I'm not surprised you allow it to build up a bit, I probably would do too...good idea from Georgia tho' if you have a tiny space on a kitchen worktop or floor for a little machine like one of these...

Oh, I totally forgot, there are these, little balls you put your "extra" added Downey in and it distributes it at the right time!!
 
Well Holly, now my life is over, I just looked over on the side of my desk and saw that I have a sock sitting there that was supposed to go in with the rest of the laundry. Will the atrocities never end. LOL! It's really not all that bad, it's one flight up and down, just a little bit of a nuisance. Like whats her name, I can see if from my window, well in this case, I can open my front door and see the laundry room just looking over the rail.

Good thing, I still have another load, towels and sheets, I'll just throw the sock in with them, problem solved in there, but still have to run up and down (ride actually,) to dry, add more vinegar to the third load. First time in a very long time I've ever had three loads of laundry in one day. Not letting that happen again if I can help it, but I was quite ill over the past weeks. I'm going to play the lottery, I need to hire a maid. :D I actually really need to at least get a smaller place and pare down my wardrobe as well. Easy to say, not easy to do when you have a touch of the hoarder gene in you when it comes to clothing especially.
 
LOL April...I know what you mean about the clothing hoarding Gene...welcome to my world..that said, I am lucky b/c we turned one of the spare rooms into a dressing room for my clothes a few years ago...but still, I find myself running out of hanging space..can you believe it? :playful:
