Garage is looking good. I see the light at the end of the table. I had youngest bring all the stuff for sale from diningroom. So i will clean that room tonight or tomorrow.
I asked oldest to bring all the junk from the laundryroom to the garage so i can deal with it. He is off Saturday and said he will do it then.
Ive post lots for sale as i moved it and will tackle more once i sort amd post in lots for sale.
Feels so good to finally be on this project.
The struggle is real, we have had a situation come up at work which has me working in a branch, which normally is no big deal but it looks like the situation is ongoing with no end date so we have to come up a plan B. The good news is my boss has staid I cannot be plan B, I can help and do my job which is to train people or write new policies and procedures and put those in place. We have not come up with plan B yet so I am plan B but my boss did say the goal is have a new plan B by the end of next week so I can go back to just being me.
But with that being said OH MY this week has been insane, I worked until 9:30 last night and still had more to do. Tonight is not looking much better but tonight I am lacking the focus to get it done. My whole body is just feeling done but am trying to push through. Not helping is that I have had a massive headache all day.
Nothing is getting done at home as I cannot even think about stuff around the house right now. Yesterday Mom did laundry and the dishes so those tasks are done.
After work last night I ran into No Frills as they had Chai Tea on sale and we on our last package. I have not found anywhere I can buy this in bulk at a good price. I also grabbed Tortillas as they had those on sale as well. My goal was not to spend to ver $20 and it came in at $20.18. I consider that good.
Alright time to get back to work, Hope everyone has a great night
My vehicle is full of junk to be dropped off at varous places. So nice to have it out of the garage!! And i had cleaned out my vehicle this afternoon so I will be anxious to rid of the junk!
Making a late dinner even though im tired and have a sore back.
Pasta with homemade sauce pulled from the freezer and i will make ceaser salad to go with it. Hope to have on table by 830!
I just made my bed with fresh clean sheets. Decided after 5pm to toss them in the wash. Then i had a shower so all nice and clean!
Quick clean up after dinner and i am done!
Wow that was sure fast i ordered from old navy aug1 -came tonight at 6.00 p.m (5 days)
i love the luxe swing tank $6 something keeping that ,and the grandkids birthday clothing but the dress was a tiny bit too clingy for my liking and it was only 16.00,so back it goes .I will have to venture into mall as they didnt sent the paper to return thru mail.
Today will stop into picards(waterdown) for the nuts for the boys (son and son-in-law) plus will buy one for my neighbour (he had a bicycle accident a few weeks ago ,hubby stood out talking to him last night ,he has a bit of a recovery and i asked him last night if he liked peanuts -for sure was the reply i got .
Ordered some clothing for the grandkids for back to school as the gap had 40% then an extra 20% emailed to me ,also picked up a summer dress for cara size 4 for next year $6.70 cant beat that price .
Every year i have taken ashlyn out and let her pick out a cute outfit (not this year due to covid)but i thought i would order her a t-shirt with sequins and a horse on it -as she loves horses and leggings .I got sebastian joggers and a t-shirt as he starts junior kindergarden this sept .Love spending on my grandkids !
Everyone have a great day ,nice and refreshing here before our humid hot weather comes back .
Thanks for sharing how long it took to receive delivery. The mail order side must still be parking (or Canada Post is) orders for a week to fill a bin or truck then letting the lot move to destinations. Glad you love your items! I was thinking I should see if there are home decor or summer items that tempt me.Quote:

Cut a little section of grass last night as it was cool and gave a shrub a trim, just to have those tasks done.
I'm at the outdoor wi-fi office to check emails, having no luck getting my new PC Optimum offers loaded (anyone else hitting the error screen on PC id login page?It's been an issue on Tuesday as well), and looking at grocery flyers that did not come in yesterday's paper bundle. Save dot ca is showing a back to school flyer for Walmart as well as a regular grocery flyer. Think I'll have to visit my SuperCentre to get either one before they go as customers do pick up flyers there.
Peaches for under $4 at Food Basics is a draw for me. Will see if any cold cuts or burgers will come home as pickings are getting fewer by the day in the fridge and pantry. Might make up a pitcher of Gatorade.
I have realized that one really good friendship is basically over because I disagree over a matter with that friend. Better to state that than try to act as things are ok. Sort of in mourning for some days and I have to end it today.
Good Morning! Nice and sunny here today.
I had absolutely no messages on my stuff posted for sale yesterday and was worried lol. All good. 3 interested people for a huge King size bed frame I just want out of my garage and another pick up arranged for rubbermaid lunch packing items (new in package).
Motivated to keep posting :)
Typical Thursday morning for me. Did my grocery shopping at NF, FreshCo, and Loblaws. Used two FPC for Pringles and Eggo Waffles (16 size). Now sitting watching the World Snooker championship on TV and having a large Starbucks coffee.
I had 2 people come on sunday the day i posted -now nothing i am surprized my puzzles havent gone on kijiji ,but then again last time i sold 2 bundles was in oct and jan fall and winter months.
Of course the one guy didnt show the other night and no reply since ,it would be nice if a few people had manners (most do that i have dealt with most are very nice)and just plain said "sorry not interested anymore".
Hubby and i went for a drive to waterdown to picards -bought a few nuts and chocolates ,we ate turish delight on the way home .I wanted hubby to let me go into value village out there ,just to get a few more puzzles but alas there was 5 people in line to get in .
I did go into treasure hunt while hubby sat in car ,got 4 no name tape for wrapping $1.20 and a p.j mask toy metal car for sebastian 2.70 ,then i felt bad for hubby sitting in car so just left the store ,plus their toys and housewares was way to messy to look thru.
I just went in the garage for a bit to move the head/foot board and sweep another spot. So much sand!!
I can't wait to move the 2 shelving units in there and take everything off and reorganize. I have a feeling I am going to post everything on them for sale since I haven't touched any of it in years!
This week's Bulk Barn coupons off this post: https://forum.smartcanucks.ca/438887...a/#post7079744
Went to CT to pick up 2 items to add to Christmas bag for 2 people. Flyer starts tomorrow lol. I tried.
RCSS- grabbed to heads of romaine for .98 each. Making DS and I taco salad now before he goes to work.
Went to the Beer store to return empties. Huge line up. Will do another time.
Received an expense cheque from work. Will have to make it to the bank machine. I'm old school and not into taking a picture for deposit like my kids do lol.
King size bed frame sold! So happy to have that out of my garage. The August sales envelope has officially started :)
Oh my it feels good puttering around in the garage.
2 pick ups today. My 3rd hasn't shown. She has till tomorrow morning to message or im moving on to the next person in line. Have a $10 pick up scheduled for 4pm tomorrow so far.
I have taken everything off the shelves and like i thought im good with getting rid of most of it. Sorting it in groups to post like items. I think i am done for the day. All i can taste is dust. Need a shower!
