Its easy to let the days fly by while we are all in quarantine and still not get anything done (like today for me!). My days wont be busy with work (like some here) and I know others are in my same position.
So tell me. Whats on your to-do list for tomorrow? Whats on your list for this week? Would it help if we had an accountability thread? You post what you need to get done, and check in through out the week and tell us how its going? If so, add your list and feel free to edit the list as you go along throughout the week.
For Monday, here is my list:
- start my March Project Life pages.
- laundry
- clean bathrooms & dust living room/dining room
- order DS's Easter stuff
The rest of the week, I want to:
- work on some Easter decorations
- at home mani/pedi
- clean out laundry room
- start mini album from fall Malibu trip
- work on flower beds (clean out, pull weeds)
- make some cards to send family
- cook dinner at home every night and resist ordering take out
- dogs need a bath

If I didnt have to work, I would be finishing cleaning the junk closet, painting it and moving my things into it. Then we would tackle the basement and get rid of 21 years of accumulated stuff. Then I would reorganize the kitchen.

1. Get up
2. Survive
3. Go to bed
I came across this when I was looking for funny quotes for some cards I'm making and it is now officially my new daily to-do list.

I have to take my younger dog to his vet appointment (they are doing the coming out to the car thing). I also have to go to the orthopedic surgeon to get the first of three weekly Euflexxa shots in my right knee. The most important is my consult with the radiologist oncologist to see what they want to do with the radiation for my cancer.
I have not made any house project plans. My surgery incisions are still tender and my right knee is killing me. So it's all I can do to cook and do dishes and laundry.

taxes.... ugh.
and frustrating because ex got some tax credits last year that i am entitled to according to the agreement as of this year's filing. i have to get on it pronto or if he files before me, he may "accidentally" apply for those again and i will never see the $$.
plus, because of some self-employment last year, i need to collect utility bills, etc but those were all in ex's name so.... i paid my half but cannot just login to hydro website (i don't have access) but need to go thru my online banking and see how much i paid each month from january to august for utilities that way.
online schooling starts next week for my boys too. that should be fun.
anything else is just gravy, at this point.

I laid out my herb garden today and my son helped my move big flagstones into place to make a path through it so I can access all the plants easily. I only had rosemary and basil to plant so far, but I got those in the ground. And I set up the bird bath on the edge. I also planted a bunch of dahlia and lily bulbs. So tomorrow, everything needs a good watering again.
Otherwise tomorrow will be washing the linens on our bed, baking something sweet for the week, sorting old photos (with my mama who is here with us due to the coronavirus), and making beef-and-broccoli stir fry for dinner.
For the week? I do need to work on our taxes. Ugh.

I need to do the grocery shopping for my brother and his wife, and will get a few things for myself at the same time.
I have lesson plans to work on for the rest of April. I’ll most likely have to provide packets for one or two students, but I can email the stuff to my principal and she will print it at school so I won’t have to go in just to prepare those.
I will be monitoring what my students are doing and responding to them.
I need to dust and vacuum and do some laundry.

A few weeks ago I was really motivated to clean and organize, but now I am really struggling with that. I also have a lot of paperwork for work that I need to get done. So that is at the top of my list for tomorrow.
Tonight:
Mani/pedi at home
Vacuum
Tomorrow:
Work on paperwork
Clean the kitchen, including the floor

We have dedicated the week to our front and back yards. Yesterday, we got the front yard almost done (weeding and laying down beauty bark). Today, we worked in the back. Still a lot to do (power wash the patio, put down new gravel on the pathways, weeding, more beauty bark), but the yards will be ready for summer when we are done!

1. Get up 2. Survive 3. Go to bed I came across this when I was looking for funny quotes for some cards I'm making and it is now officially my new daily to-do list. This is basically what we've been doing! I keep thinking we'll have a break from chemo/doctors/hospitals, and I'll bake and cook and organize........... and then I'm in pajamas all day with a migraine. Stress, worry and exhaustion. Trying not to get sick and not pass anything to DH. That's about it!
ETA: After reading some posts, I guess I am accomplishing some basics. I'm keeping up with my manicures. I"m helping bathe DH and doing pedicures on him (diabetic, so it's important). Taking care of my kitten/litter.......... Vacuum daily..... Kitchen is clean daily..... Laundry is done, always. Clean sheets on Fridays..... I try to cook and bake when I'm up to it.
To the parents and teachers out there: Thank you for doing such a tough job! It's a lot for kids to adjust to (and parents/teachers). I also pray for all of the front line healthcare people out there. I just can't imagine it.......

I have a follow up bariatric surgeon appointment that will be done by video on Tuesday. I have a breast MRI Wed that I keep hoping gets cancelled but so far it is still on. The follow up with that surgeon's office will be done by phone. At the end of the month I have a follow up at the women's clinic that I'm sure will end up as a phone appointment. I am glad to get all these appointments taken care of because in May I am 5 years post breast surgery and I get to stop oral chemo and these MRIs that I hate.
My son's birthday is tomorrow. I'm going to pick up some take out and a cake for him. Sunday I am doing baskets for everyone and DH is cooking. I'll have a little egg hunt for DGD.
The next week is DH and my 32 anniversary. Don't see us doing anything at all. He will probably cook me a nice meal.
Beyond that I have nothing scheduled that hasn't been or won't be cancelled.

Apparently, I needed to cancel NHL tv. I assumed incorrectly they would not charge since there is no season and no games right now.

In general, nothing. Everything that needs to be, is done.
I will fill my time with scrapbooking, reading, walking, exercise, surfing the internet.
I will need milk, by Thursday-Friday-ish.

My main project for tomorrow is to make a sort-of schedule for my days.... reading time, exercise time, etc. I also want to try making some no-sew face masks.
I also need to call the vet...my dog is overdue for her bordetella shot and the last thing I want is for her to get sick on top of everything else.
And I want to send some emails to a few people who I haven't talked to in awhile.
And last, I want to make a list of everything that I'd like to get done around the house while I'm in lockdown.
I'm pretty sure I can do all that tomorrow because most of it is just list making. The biggest thing will be trying the no-sew face mask.

Finish the last six face masks that are on my ironing board so I can give them to my family members who have asked me to make them some.
Help DD with her distance learning/school.
Go to school to pick up all of her stuff that is there, they are doing a contactless pickup drive through for all the families.
Stop at Target and get Spaghettios and some of the soup my kid likes and some stuff for her Easter basket since I’ll be right by there anyway.
This week, I need to get the rest of the cookies sitting in my kitchen iced.

I’m working from home, but I’m light on the workload right now. So I want to CLEAN the house. Floors need attention badly. Vacuuming and hard work floors. I need to change the furnace filter, and dust. Also carry several things to the storage room. And laundry, mostly put it away.
If I seriously just did it all, it would be maybe 2 hours of work.

I hesitate to plan because it seems like things come up every day or at least every week that I never expected which eat away too much time. How can I lose so much of the day when I can't go anywhere?
My plans:
To continue to make masks - trying to get two per person for friends and family who don't sew.
Order fabric from the one local quilt shop I know of that is still taking orders.
Meal planning and getting DH grocery list as he is the designated shopper this week.
Tidy up the house - dedicate a set amount of each day to tidying and cleaning.
Go with DH to dental consultation about implant (if it isn't cancelled)
Prepare lunch each day for us and Mother
Finish Roundup spraying
Return the new TV antennae which only picks up two networks and select a new one to order. Our old one stopped rotating last week.
