Now what my foot! I finished the project for the Chief (sooner than I thought I would). I will e-mail and let the captain know in the morning. (I was wrong, she’s not a major). And, since I am done with it, I have the overwhelming urge to say “Now What?” Well to answer that, all I have to do is look at my list…..it is QUITE LONG! Tonight I need to go to the store. Among other things, I need to get stamps and garbage bags (I was supposed to get those last week). Besides the store:

1) At least one load of laundry (I want to put clean sheets on my bed)

2) Put away the laundry after it is dryed (that’s where it usually ended up on the stepstool in the kitchen)

3) Daily Bible reading. Although, I think I am ahead. There was no time this morning. I WAY overslept! A personal best though, I got up and showered, dressed, drove to work, AND got to my desk in 1 hour and 20 minutes. I was only five minutes late (Usually, I can spend 3+ hours doing all that and be 15mins, give or take late). I have to say, I impressed myself. Now let’s see if we can do it again, WITHOUT oversleeping.

4) Use the timer Stephen bought me to do 15mins of something in the kitchen. Probably get the dishes I washed last week out of the dishwasher where they were drying, put them away and wash some more.

5) Can’t forget the trash

6) Maybe something else………….dunno

Big plans for tonight. I really need to pray first and get God involved; otherwise, I will end up back at Procrastination Station!

God bless all

YEAH!

I did get my stamps and garbage bags. It’s 11:15p and I am waiting on the dryer so I can put sheets back on my bed. I used the timer to spend 15mins getting some clutter cleared in the kitchen. There was a box of coffee (tea cups) on the floor full of cups and I FINALLY put them away (you DO NOT need to know how long they have been sitting there). I CAN REACH THE CABINET WHERE THE PLATES AND CUPS AND BOWLS AND ALL BELONG WITHOUT CLIMBING OVER THINGS OR LEANING REAL FAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!WOOHOOO! I am about to take out the trash, there isn’t much. I have to say, accomplishing something, especially something you have been avoiding as long as I have been avoiding all this, really does feel good. It puts you on a “I want to conquer the world” high. So far, that high has not lasted very long as I have reached it, but I can feel it strengthening. And, it builds my confidence that, with God, I can do anything, I can actually get this place cleaned up! And, I SO want to use my house to serve God. Anyway………………………………..

Good night!

P.S. Bonnie and Kent, have a blessed day on Tuesday Oct 9. We are all looking forward to hearing when she makes her debut (I forgot the baby’s name). All of you will be in our thoughts and prayers on this auspicious day!
