Despite grand intentions, I do not feel that I got much done yesterday.
What I did accomplish:
I got two loads of laundry washed and dried,
----- Though not all folded and none of it put away
Cleaned the porcelain throne
Made groceries (local colloquialism for going to the grocery store)
----- Though the non-perishables are still in the car awaiting import and put away
Surface cleaned the kitchen
------ It’s dirty again, of course, because I used it since and I simply never have the energy to clean as I go
Worked on the design for the big bookcase I’m hoping to make before the end of these two weeks
----- It’s going to be 6 feet wide by 8 feet tall made of my design which requires no hardware, just boards and pipes
----- It will have a designated area for the cats to climb up to the top, so they can sit and watch me from above to their little catjoy hearts’ contents.
----- I’ve made one of this sort before, but only half the size. It now sits against the wall not five feet from me, groaning under the weight of all I have stuffed onto it. It needs a companion to take on some of the load.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
What I did not do:
Go to the gym
----- I’ve determined to get back into the habit over this vacation. I can’t say I don’t have the time. (I can say I don’t have the energy, but then I will have to berate myself for being lazy and guilt/slink into the Cavern of Wasted Energy.)
----- I didn’t even make the required goal number of steps as demanded by the fitness bracelet I wear on my left wrist (because why should it just be the giggling gods’ job to mock me constantly).
Any serious incursion on the clutteration amongst which the cats and I live.
Having checked my tickets for the Idiot’s Trifecta - Louisiana Lottery, Megamillions, and Powerball
- I did not win any one of the three.
----- I am genuinely, absolutely seriously, surprised every time I check my tickets and find I am not the winner. I have planned and prepared for the winning, which I have in my mind as an absolute certainty, so diligently and thoroughly that I simply deserve to win. I have Excel sheets all prepared to give my newly hired financial advisor which map out my plan for the next 25 years. I have planned how my entire family is to be taken care of - Myself, my father, four siblings, ex-husband, seven nieces and nephews, five grand-nieces and nephews and even the twin grand-nieces/nephews on the way. I know the staff I will hire, the property type I will buy, my investment plans and priorities, and on and on… I have daydreamt and spent enough time internet researching this alternate life I will never (don’t say that!) live that this fixation could be clinically diagnosed.
Ah well, I must get moving or tomorrow’s list of what I didn’t do is going to be longer than the list of what I did do, as usual.
