This is a reboot of the old monthly 15-minute challenge threads. Let us know what you've accomplished, no matter how small.
Today I:
Went to Costco.
Went to Home Depot with DH to get a new lockset for our front door.
Made and mailed a card for a friend who is having surgery tomorrow.
Completed my month-end accounting of our finances for DH.
Continued to work on getting our tax info ready to send to our CPA.

I walked a few blocks in the snow with a neighbor.
I made the rice and the veggies for dinner - Dh insisted on heating the stuffed peppers in the oven himself because I’m not supposed to bend over.
I sent a birthday card.
I ordered an Edible Arrangement to be delivered tomorrow because I’ve been craving fresh fruit salad and my Wegman’s hasn’t been carrying any with melon in it.
It has been a week to celebrate the small accomplishments! 😂

Holy Moly! That’s a lotta meatballs! 😂 They went in the freezer! No big meatball party happening here. I estimated I’d make 120, so I’m pretty proud my final count was so close. |

I shoveled snow and shoveled again and again and again. I’m achy and it’s going to continue to snow all night and all day tomorrow. So tomorrow will be a repeat of today unfortunately. I want spring.

Nothing major, i went to the gym, made dinner, did my nails, cut out some cardstock on the Cricut for a miniature project, and got some work done on one of my dollhouses.
Tomorrow i intend to get the windows done in that house and make a shower.

Watched the snow falling. Put away the rest of yesterday's grocery delivery.
Will probably fold clothes in a bit and wash dishes before bed.
Put off vacuuming. Tomorrow will be good. Can't go any where. Car is under too much snow and they have not done the sidewalks since 8am.
I did watch the snow falling often during the day.

I got rid of tons of stuff from my storage area. I was ruthless. There is more to go but I was impressed with how much I got rid of. I had 2 serious panic attacks and then was ok. The stuff is gone.

I sewed four face masks with a broken humerus. I crushed my shoulder Thanksgiving weekend and am still healing.
I’ve made thousands of masks during the pandemic and I just wanted to see if I could do it.
Baby steps, but I did it!

I washed the sheets and remade the beds, dusted a few cobwebs along the ceiling/wall, took down our wreath from the front porch, did 3 loads of clothes, and cleaned the kitchen.

I had one of those days at work yesterday where I followed up on and did a million little tasks. So I was super productive there. I cleaned my kitchen and I finished up the fruit for the mini cheesecakes I made on Sunday. My DH dropped them off to the kids. He made sandwiches for dinner as I didn't feel like cooking and I did two hexagons for the 100 day project. So basically, I was really productive at work, but not so productive at home.

I vacuumed, dusted, and did laundry. I moved some more small furniture pieces around to make my space look a little bigger--I like it now. Wanted to move a window so my couch could move a bit, but since that wasn't possible, I moved the two side tables instead. (the couch HAS to go in the middle of the window right???) It's actually a love seat. But it still has to be centered--or my ocd would drive me nuts!!

It drives me batty that my photo wall in my craft/photo/office nook isn't centered but that wall has the fuse box. Still a pretty wall though |

I am making a daily list first thing in the morning. I put about 10-12 things on that list, some simple like mailing a card, some more complicated, like sending my resume off to two places or hanging a new shelf.
It has seriously brought me SO much peace. I put about 1 hours' worth of work max so I can get it done at lunch or in the evening. It has opened up time for my weekend, where I worked all day.

For the past 5 days, I have been stalking websites to sign up for the vaccine. I have accomplished zero ! It is bringing me much grief.
On a lighter note - I’ve rearranged some decor in my house and that brings me joy.

I vacuumed and dusted the living room and den,
sat in my chair and read for an hour and just had lunch.
It has finally stopped percipitating, sadly we got just enough snow to make a huge
mess with all the rain on top of it

So far today I've unfriended someone I've known for 20+ years. If I had to hide you for political reasons, forgot about you, went to look again and found you supporting Marjorie Taylor Greene, we're officially done. Byyyeeeeeee
And I think I better look through my ignore list again and see who else I can/should be permanently done with.
About to head out to the gym, then time to attach dollhouse windows and figure out a dinner plan!
