Catch up Month Monday #2

I’ve been sluggish but with good reason as I got the lab results Thursday afternoon that confirmed I have a UTI and have been taking medication. My mind has been too fuzzy to figure out how to cut the last two drawings that are a bit tricky due to fitting them both into one frame.

My friend who picked up a lavender plant for me along with her larger order insisted it is a gift which was very kind. We got it potted and it is perfect for the spot. I hope it thrives there. There are a different kind of purple flowers around the corner of the patio. The plant next to it puts out fuchsia flowers. The bees will be happy.

What is still to get done?

1. Cut down other drawings and deliver to framer.

2. Finish updating home inventory.  About half done.

3. Finish computer file cleanup. I would guess I am about half done not counting club emails and photos. Sigh.

Catch up Month Monday #1

 A little progress.

I left two of my drawings at Micheal’s to get new mats and put in frames we had. I also got clear on how to cut down the remaining two so they will fit into one frame with a double opening mat.

Updating our home inventory for insurance purposes moved along as I completed the sections for the small bedroom and both bathrooms. As a bonus I spring cleaned all three rooms. I’m determined to get the house deep cleaned before my next foot surgery.

Went through my 1 drawer of paper files that need an annual review and found a bunch to discard. Now to shred those needing it.

4. Wait for lavender plant to be purchased as part of club landscaping purchase. Then pot it.

Catch up Month - planning

I was going to move on to emergency prep this month but have a long list of catching up to do plus making a good start on Spring cleaning the house and  going to visit our son and his family for a long weekend. I don’t usually Spring clean but I am planning to have bunion surgery on my other foot at the end of June or July and the house does need all those rarely cleaned places cleaned before  I am out of commission again.

So what needs catching up on? Given that we will be gone for almost a week I'm keeping the list short!

Finances:

1. Finish updating home inventory (for insurance purposes if claim has to be filed).

2. Go through paper files and remove items no longer needed.

Technology:

1. Finish going through computer files to delete and reorganize.

Happiness:

1. Get 4 art pieces matted and framed using frames we already have. Hang them!

2. Obtain lavender plant and put in patio pot.
