Tossed a duvet cover in the wash with odd laundry. Think i will post it for sale if it is the queen size one ( will keep the King size one)
Off to take pics of kids games to post for sale.

Good Afternoon Everyone,
Decided on an easier day today, I woke up bright and early but fell back asleep so lacking some ambition today.

I had a few dishes to do, I made a batch of brownies last time but was working at the same time so I left those dishes for this morning

Bread has been processed for the freezer and is in the chest freezer

Mom ended up off today so she tackled getting the bread in the chest freezer well I tidied the Stand Up Freezer, also we had a tray of burgers we broke down and froze in meal size portions. All the freezers are full and I am happy I think we are well stocked just in case

Garbage has been taken out as well as gathered up the smaller garbage cans we keep in various spaces

Limes have been dealt with, they have been juiced and I will make my drink later so it can sit overnight and will take to work with me

Celery has been packaged, a few pieces have some marks so I cut them up as well as some carrots I will take for snacks to work this week

Put away everything from my shopping trip that lives upstairs

Now I am done house stuff for the day outside of making dinner, I need a plan B as originally Mom would not be home for dinner and she did not like my original plan. Will probably do a little work to get ahead on my to do list for this week.

Have a great day everyone

They have glow in the dark glue for .48 cents at RCSS. I'm thinking I should go and buy a with the coupons for my niece and bestie's twins. I hate using coupons when they are more for the product but RCSS is good for just reducing it with no issues. Will go 1st thing in the morning.

I have a lady coming tomorrow for a pick up. Twice she has messaged me to add a new item I just posted. Keep it up lady

[Purdee]

Sorted my girls' clothes and shoes - switched summer for winter clothes. Posted a couple listing on kijiji.
Set up an appointment with a kijiji person to pick apples from their tree; showed up but no one was home. My DD#1 (4.5 yrs old) was very disappointed and so was I. Oh well. I took my girls to the park instead then home.

I actually got a lot done today. I dyed a new shirt that became bleached in early Covid from a store using bleach cleaner. Sadly whatever they used was too strong for the dye to cover it. So disappointing. But I may just wear it any way because I am at home and it’s not noticeable on camera. Baked my sons bday cake. Wen5 to Fortinos and found the laughing cow coupon. Woo hoo, no dove though. Found a few others but I have no memory of what they were.

Will keep posting today and organizing in the garage.
The dining room is on the list too. A few things left to move out then cleaning top to bottom. That is a must to get done today!!

Load of white towels are in the washer. Stripped my bedding and it will be in the washer next.
Now I will go give the bedroom a quick clean up.

Working on my to do list today too. Bought some bras at Walmart but had to guess on size and fit as the change rooms were closed-returned 2 this morning. Doing a bit of paperwork for Mum following her move. Need to apply for Alberta Health care etc for her.
