    Good earlier evening everyone!!!
    I saw when putting garbage and recycle away out in the locker that the 2 stairs neigbour have a storage unit of 5 shelves togheter and she is quite a lot organisated.I am thinking to buy one and do the same,could certainly decluttered a few boxes on the spare bedroom in that!!! Will watch Canadian Tire and Wal Mart deal,dont want to paid to much like maybe 40$ and I want the plastic ones black..and my metal drying rack too,...
    Managed to get a little bit accomplished this afternoon.Fridge is organisated and clean .I saw what I waste and what to not repurchase like too much yogurt and I saw I forget my 2 and a half packs of strawberries..so frustratred what a waste of money....
    Did the dishes too,the sink was full but I am loving my dollorama drying rack

    After I put the garbages of that away,tomorrow I willl have to take the recycle out ,but that can wait for now.the 2 bags of expired food and stock was more important.
    After that I was too tired to declutter my wardrobe so that will wait tomorrow.
    And do grocery list.Now with my cleaning I found space in my frige for monday grocery shopping.So happy !!! So neat!!!
    I have to go in store to purchase dad some boxers.(xl)...He only have 5 pairs..will check maxi (joe fresh) or maybe wal mart.
    I have a brochure concern to read about that surgery and what it look like after..will do that tonight or tomorrow.
    Dad is quite in shape altrought he nap a lot...totally normal
    Alright time for dinner .Have a fabulous evening and night .!!!
    Such a spring day today with the sun!!!

    Sobeys trip last night. I had to get 3 rain checks for things that were already out of stock.
    I spent $5.03 oop
    Redeemed $30 in Air Miles
    $34.72 in coupons
    Earned 37 Air Miles
    $0.25 Eclipsa
    $0.10 Caddle
    submitted receipt to Swagbucks too.

    I took a quick ride over to Dollar Tree with ds before our babysitter went home for the weekend. We picked up 4 buckets of chalk (16ct each). We all use them, but our little girl loves them. We weren’t able to find these buckets of chalk most of last year, that’s why I bought 4 today. Quick bit of exercise to bike over and bring it back. It’s about 1km round trip.

    We picked up a 16” bike for twin girl for $15. The person lived just a couple blocks away. The bike needs a new tire tube. Dh was able to fix up the bike and twin girl has already started to ride it.

    When Dh talked to our internet provider yesterday about our internet he was able to convince them that it might be a squirrel chewing the outside line again. He also found out that they’ve been overcharging us for our cell phones...just like we thought. They were charging us the regular rate, but we should have had the lower rate because we own our phones. Dh got them to change his phone bill and is now saving $10 per month.

    I called for myself today. My bill have now been reduced by $15 a month. She was also able to give me a one time credit of $50 because I’ve been a long time customer...and I shouldn’t have been charged like this for so long.

    Good Evening Everyone,
    Good start to the morning, tons of ambition and was getting things done. By mid afternoon I sat down to take a break and my ambition was gone. I did push through and get a few more things done.

    Not sure if it was the time change last weekend but I have noticed pretty much every day this week around 2 pm I crash even when I get a good night's sleep.

    Got some Meal Prep done but now I think I am going to need more veggies this week. Does anyone else find come Spring you just want to add veggies or more veggies to everything or is it just me?

    Turns out my Zucchini was going bad so I cut them all up, added 2 peppers and about 3/4 of 680 g package of mushrooms and sauteed them up. I will eat them but I was a little disappointed, they did come out a tad bitter and the Zucchini went a bit mushy so I think I will put it on rice and top with my Garlic Garlic Sauce. Also went really watery but I tried to get as much liquid out as I could when I packaged them up.

    I got about 90% of my work done today, I might finish it tomorrow if not what I did not get done can be done Monday and won't affect day to day business so we shall see how I feel tomorrow.

    I really need to try to get some cleaning done tomorrow, the last two weeks have been better for getting stuff done around the house but I really want to push and purge more. Spring makes me want to clean but work, this whole working thing LOL. I have less trainees this week so hopefully I can get into my routine.

    I was having a moment the other day, there was a little frustration, a little self reflection and I need to stop putting so much pressure on myself. I need to better balance what I can get done in a day for work and see what I am getting done vs what I am not getting done. I can literally sit at my laptop for 12 hours a day but I cannot keep doing this, my goal is a break every 2 to 3 hours and tackle something around the house a simple task no more 15 to 30 minutes, that is the plan.

    Hope everyone is having a great weekend.

    Happy Birthday @gisel dta
    I had a productive day yesterday. Took down the Christmas lights and took apart the urns. Also went out for almost 20 km on my bike. DH rides a lot and rides far, like 80 to 100 km, I have done those distances but I find it work whereas he loves it. My ideal is about 50km, so my plan is to work up to this and we will ride together when he is not doing one of his big rides.
    I have no plans for dinner, should really work on this weeks menu. Last night the older did chicken parm which is his brothers favourite. So the younger has to be his assistant and do all the dishes. Enjoy the day if you are able, it’s beautiful in this part of Ontario today.

    Twin boy had a scary allergic reaction last night. It’s the first time he had ever had an allergic reaction. It was a long night at home. He responded ok to Benadryl, but required more than one dose.
