Hand Dishes are done.
Fridge has been cleaned out, really nothing to throw out except a 1/4 of a lime that go pushed to the back. Mostly just looking to see what needs to be used up.
I have done two rounds of vinegar on the faucet, the base is looking good but the bottom of the hot water handle needs work so onto round 3.
Trying to decide on Dinner for tonight, we could make homemade pizza, or lasagna or french onion pasta bake, not sure, all sound good. Really wish one was jumping out at me saying "have me tonight." LOL
I know, it is Saturday, but I typed up a work report. I sat down to format the spreadsheet so Monday I could just enter the info, before I knew it, only took me like 10 minutes, the report was done. So will send that off Monday Morning.

Like SassyAshley I’ve been up since 5am but then again I’m always up at that time. Dh and I have been doing this for the last 8 years with our pup and his insulin routine so it’s just ingrained in us and our body’s wake up wether we want to or not.
I was supposed to do nothing and give my hand a break but I had SO much energy this morning. The sun is shining and I had coffee :shock:. So I have stripped the bedding and washed it (just drying it now), cleaned the kitchen including stove, folded and put away 1 big load of cleaned laundry, went to Home Sense to find something for a special person, went to a medical supply store to look for my finger splint(didn’t have my size of course :frown:), and just finished wiping out the car. I did the windows as they needed it badly and then washed down all interior surfaces.
So much for taking it easy :lolsign:. Maybe I’ll try to relax the rest of the day…….
Hop everyone is having a great Saturday

@Ciel21
, thanks for the suggestions. When the times comes I will check Habitat for Humanity and Ikea, just right now we have other things that are higher on the list that need the $$$.
I did find a faucet on sale at Lowe's I like and might pick it up to have on hand.
Last week's headache I think for me was lack of sleep. I stayed at Bro's and Sis-is-Law's way too late and the next day was a work day. Well that mixed with the weather, I get horrible weather headaches.

Got most of the to-do-list done.
After 3 round there is still some hard water marks at the base of the hot water handle but it is what it is. I was done running upstairs to check on it.
Cleaned out the Kitchen Freezer. Before I went on Vacation we set up our upstairs freezer to be Mom's freezer so if she is having a bad day she doesn't have to go downstairs to make dinner. She has a bin of proteins, little containers of various veggies (we buy the Costco bags, there is no keeping those in the upstairs freezer), and her breakfast stuff. There was a bunch of extra stuff in there from our cooking last weekend that we flash froze up here, bagged and just needed to be taken downstairs.
I desperately need to defrost and reorganize our standup freezer but I also know it will not happen this weekend.
All day my mind has been going to working on the rest of the kitchen deep clean but I know I have reached my limit, my back is hurting a bit. I have a super busy week this week and the last thing I need is back pain all week. So maybe tomorrow depending on how I feel I will work on the other half of the kitchen.
Tomorrow I will have to do some kitchen stuff to get ready for week, prep some veggies, figure out something for breakfasts, something for lunches on days I am in a branch.
Dinner was homemade pizza with a side salad. We have leftovers for tomorrow and I have used up most of my Salad Bar from last week so I will need to restock tomorrow.
It was a good day, got some of the things done, not all of the things but things are moving forward which makes me happy.
Happy Saturday Everyone

I went to the local second hand store that is only open two half days a week, volunteer run. I picked up two Halloween costumes, oven mits, kitchen hand towels, a pair of capris for me, pj pants for me, swim suit for me, shirt for Dh, pants for Ds, jacket for Twin boy, vegetable steam pot for rental house, matching big and small spoons, one cereal bowl for a total of $27. Packed building and no change room…so hopefully stuff fits.

Good Morning,
Up at 6:30, thought it was earlier when I woke up.
Not quite as get up and go as I was yesterday. A little slower start today but I need to get at it.
I am thinking some muffins for a quick grab and go breakfast, I have fruit to go with them, perfect on the go breakfast.
I might also make one meal to have in the fridge for lunches or if need be a dinner that is ready to go.
Then I need to prep some veggies.
Lots to get done so I better get going.
Happy Sunday

Slowly getting there. I am having one of those days were it feels like everything is taking me forever to get done.
I have made Brown Sugar Muffins.
Washed all the hand dishes. Last night I wanted to do the dinner dishes so I could wake up to a clean kitchen but after we finished dinner all of a sudden I was so tired. So I did those plus I have cleaned as I went so no dishes piling up.
Whipped Greek Yogurt has been made
Peanut Butter Dip has been made
Odd fact and I cannot explain it but I have always had this fear of using our hand mixer. I am not sure why but I usually try to avoid using it but I have slowly started to use it more often, get comfortable with it and it is life changing. Used it for my Whipped Greek Yogurt, so much easier than pulling out the mixer. Used it for my Peanut Butter Dip, I normally do this by hand, it is a lot of mixing, using the hand mixer done in 2 minutes.
Now I need to do some fruit and veggie prep.

It was a long day yesterday but we got a lot done. Then I spent my night posting stuff on the freebie sight. I am a little disappointed as we had planned to go paddling before we went to deal with the apartment and the lake had an event on this weekend. And today it’s too windy for Lake Ontario.
myplan is some housework and Costco. Then ds2 needs a ride back to school.
