    Good very late evening everyone!!! I napping for 1 hres after supper.
    I have the garbage to take out tomorrow morning(recycle and compost)
    I would said I made 30% of the bathroom cleaning today so better than nothing but it is seriously too overwhelming all the stock in there and this is a very small bathroom unfortunnatly.But I like it because not like my other appart I have the washing machine and dryer in the bathroom !!! But not much storage space..that is the big problem with the appart ......

    Feel good to check some things on my to do list!!! I feel so proud of myself and the patience I have with dealing with this.
    Here what I did today:
    Clean all of my bedsheets,put to garbage the rippen plastic protector the matress had since I had move in 2007...lol
    Put all of my decorative cusions (coussins) on the bed so that is nice ,beautiful and confortable.
    Put on the shelves so I can put some books in my father bedroom(he love to read before sleeping)
    Sorting what was in the dryer (donate,kept,trash) was underwears ripped to thight ,socks with holes and boxers that was so long it was there for 3 years......
    Finding dad work t shirts and pants(putted away in his bedroom)
    Cleaning of my died beloved brother papers(that was hard )
    Trow away expired softdrinks(kept the cans for consignation)
    Clean eve litter
    1 load of my clothe laundry
    so that was my day I put at least 4 hours in this cleaning

    I am just glad I have a plan and a list otherwhise I would not make it ...
    The goal is to live day by day not to much thinking hahaha !!!!
    I love to save money!!! Frugal life hahaah !!!

    Good morning everyone!!!!
    Watched the flyers so I will buy a few things .(with pm super c or iga)
    Glad I took out the garbage and recycle into the bin earlier this morning !!!! I was not feeling well reading beloved brother papers so I just trow them into the black bin and I feel so much better (was toxic to me)
    The stairs are not in good shape so I dont like to put the garbage and recycle away....But after all the cleaning I did so far I dont expect to have too much to put away
    Just taking it easy this morning and will do a few things this afternoon !!!
    Sleep was not better because the operation of my father is soon.(march 11)
    no sushis tomorrow because i have plenty of food but I am ok with that,no big deal
    Dinner will keep it easy,lorraine quiche (I love quiche),salad and fruits salad

    Have an awesome day everyone and take care of yourself!!!

    Good morning! Sunny spring like day here today! Birds are chirping too!

    A walk for sure later today. May be a good day to take DS out driving. Will see if he feels like going when he gets home from school.

    Looking at the calendar to plan a few days off in April (use up overtime days worked) Thinking 3rd week in April. Need something to look forward too.

    Have a great day everyone.

    At Dollar Tree yesterday I bought a large loaf of Rye bread and long sub buns. Will make DS his sandwiched this week with the sub buns and we can use them for hamburger buns too if needed. I love how well Rye bread freezes!

    I am cooking a pot of rice now. Will make chicken fried rice tomorrow with it for DS. (cooked chicken breast in the freezer) He loves it so much!

    I bought chicken nuggets at Costco (I thought they were strips lol) but they have come in handy. I cooked up a few on Sunday when I got home and made a chicken ceaser wrap. I had 3 extra and put in the fridge and then had a wrap for lunch yesterday. They will last a long time for wraps which DS loves.

    This afternoon I will make smoothies right when DS gets home from school. Have almond milk to use up!

    Good earlier evening everyone !!!
    My father just called me after I called my marraine(aunt) to share the news.He was with his cardiologist this morning,He had a covid 19 test in entrance and will have another one before his operation.The operation is march 11 in earlier morning and will last with the preparation 3-4 hres .I will not have his news for 2 days after because he will be on the machine in observation and will change bedroom often.He will call me when he will be capable.So that is the final news before operation I guess...I will talk to him tomorrow at 11 am for the last time...make me a little bit sad but I know he will be much better after

    Still a productive but slow morning in my cleaning but honnestly this afternoon I was not feeling it so nothing where done.
    -Folded and putted in their place dad socks and underweards
    Did 2 loads of laundry 1 for dad(his clothe I want him to have fresh clothes when he will be home) and my new la vie en rose underweards who are now drying on the dryer
    -Cleaned the laundry machine so dirty
    -Put away at the right place all my clothes,jeans,joggins ,pyjamas and bras

    But wow we have a so small bathroom....but I love the fact that compared to my first appt the washing machine and dryer are in the bathroom not in the kitchen...so If I dont want the noise I just close the door lol!!!

    Did not touch the 2 laundry bascket that have stuff to trow away and rearrange so that will be probably tomorrow
    And clean the floor so much dust

    after that I will be finish for the bathroom at least

    I want to move dad books shelves to have acces to his wardrobe but no solution so far and 1 furniture too will see
    To do list getting bigger day by day lol....but that is ok I have to occupy my mind

    Alright time for dinner ,have a great evening and night.

    @Ciel we have no family for the in laws. We talked to them about moving here and they don’t want to leave their town and the family emigrated to Canada when DH was 13 so it’s just us in Canada. But they did decide to move to the retirement home so at least that’s one less worry and we were able to book the vaccination for both parents next week so very excited about that.
