Closet Olympics

I have done all but two of the closet events and now I have an almost empty closet. I was able to give two bags of clothes to RuthAnn for a family that she knows that lost everything in a fire. I guess it is time to go shopping. AUGH! I HATE SHOPPING!

Workout

I did 5 days of workouts in one. lol. While I was waiting for my Girl Scout parent I did situp, pushup, curls, jumpinjack, walking, etc.

Downhill Event

I made a list of all the Olympic events and it turns out I have done about half of them.  I did the downhill even yesterday (even though it was "late") and am so happy with my results.  I can't remember the last time I swept my stairs, I have trying to balance the sweeper on the steps and we don't have a plug that will let you do the whole steps at once.  So Flylady had suggested using a rubba-scrubba.  I am not sure if she meant it for carpet, but it did a great job of getting in the edges where the sweeper never gets.  15 minutes and it was done!

Olympics

So I have not been doing well on the Olympics even though I thought they sounded fun.  My inner princess was whining and said that we had agreed that we were only working on our very basic routines.  She really didn't want to do anything extra.  So if this is you and you feel like you got behind I would challenge you to do what I am going to do - a triathlon!  Go to the link and pick 3 (two if you don't have time) of the events and see how quickly you can accomplish them.  I am not going to be home at all today - so I will do this tomorrow.  Some of you may not make it until Saturday, it doesn't matter - you are not behind!  Let's have fun!

No metal for me

Ok I have not been preforming well in my events lately this week. I did get my house good enough for cookies today. I will be working on my own Olympic workout doing squats today. I will probably do over around 75. I know last year my legs hurt from bending down and picking up boxes. I am trying to keep my sink looking nice and I think I was doing good until last night. But got that taken care of first thing this morning.

Ok I got back into the cleaning mood after not cleaning for two day. I also worked in my closet and got rid of pants that my hubby don't wear and I was wearing. I boxed up over half those clothes I have not wore for a year. I don't see me doing much of the others clothing since I did the year thing. I might pick a shelf and try to clean and straight in up. I finial did a house blessing in one day. GO ME working on some laundry.

Olympics

I put my torch ( flylady feather duster) on my mantel. I did the dresser top event and the "me" space event. I did the shirts/blouses closet event and might get to the pants tonight. I also did the 10 min walk in place activity event as well as the bicep curl and the shoulder raises with weights. I am having great fun with the Olympics and have started a spreadsheet to keep track of them. I am off to do the kitchen drawer event that I missed.

Closet Challenge

I did yesterdays challenge but only had one pair of pants to give away.  Today's will be postponed until tomorrow.  How is everyone else doing?

Olympics

How are everyone's Olympic Events going?  Did you see the closet challenges?  I thought these were helpful after our meeting on Sunday.  I did mine, but since it was blouses only it took me about 2 minutes.  I only own one blouse and it turns out I don't like it so I got rid of it.  I did go ahead and get rid of a couple shirts that I had to wear under blouses that I didn't need anymore either.  I didn't do my Home Blesssing yesterday, am hoping to get it done today.  Happy Flying!

Was busy flying today

I bless my house today and wash 4 loads of laundry. The last one in dryer right now. I got my clothes pack for Williamburgs, VA except for what coming out of the dryer. I pack the other things Wed.
My mom brought a beautiful bouquet of flowers her friend got her for Valentine Days and they sitting on my dining room table. Tomorrow is chemo so there will be no flying tomorrow.

Going to watch TV and drink lots of water this evening. Hope everyone else day was a grand one.

Flying

Ok, I woke up today and the kids started cleaning their rooms. I love how they just put some things away and push everything else to the sides and think it is clean. I started in Rylee room by pulling everything out of the closet. It is looking a little bit better. Need to get back up there. But I decided to come down stairs and clean my kitchen. I am working on shining my sink. Cleaned and wiped down my counter tops. Clean two bathroom draws out, cleaned undernearth my K. sink. Working on laundry. Got a candle burning on the counter. I think the will be my tourch. I will burn it when I am flying. Well I better go finish my sink.

Frost

Gorgeous outside this morning with the hoar frost on everything. More snow tomorrow. I guess that means I should give some thought to a grocery run for staples. Laundry and kitchen floor cleaning today.
Hang in there Janis. A good part about chemo is it has a cycle and an end in sight. Life is always a plus.

Valentine's Day

Hi everyone, since our next meeting is on Valentine's Day I thought we should celebrate.  Anybody have any thoughts?

Shine the sink

Well I finally was able to convince Mom to let me do the dishes the last 2 nights. I even shine the sinks. I told her I was feeling good so I could do it and she could only say I don't mind. Doing laundry today because tomorrow chemo and I won't feel like doing anything for a while. This chemo drain me. I do find the naps help me. Trying to keep the clutter pick up also.
