Friday we accomplished a lot…

we sorted through all of the stuff that got put into the garage when we were cleaning out the basement, and piled the items onto the driveway which were for the dump…

a truck arrived, was filled with the collection, and headed out… when it got back the snowblower was lifted in, with help from a neighbour, and away it went to someone with a large driveway…

then we started to reorganize the items that were left and make space in the garage for the car and the motorcycle…

took quite a while and lots of organizing, but eventually space was made…

and the car and motorcycle fit;-)… maybe the next project will be to wash the car, lol…

a start was made on the items still on the workbench, including the million screws, lol…

had great success with another couple of cleaning projects…

cleaned and reorganized the paper product shelf in the basement… who knew I needed 4 boxes of large ziplock bags, lol…

then had a lovely time in the corner cupboard… this was one area that always made my beloved crazy;-)…

he might have been right as I don’t even want to say how many multiple glue guns I discovered…

saw the most amazing sky tonight as I was walking through the house…

it always amazes me when I just happen to look out and see a gorgeous sunset or sunrise… there are so many moments that we miss because we aren’t looking, lol…

here is one of the photos that I took, just before my camera advised me it was exhausted…

I am feeling that a pattern is appearing in my days… I am getting up around eight or nine and then having a relaxing breakfast… today I had some chicken soup I’d made a few days ago in the Instant Pot… I hadn’t tasted it when I made it so was pleased with it this morning… I’d woken up with a stuffy nose, so chicken soup seemed like a great start to my day…

for my lunch I had some of the Mexican Chicken Soup I’d made at the same time…. I will make this again as it is very tasty…

a bit later I spent some time working at cleaning out a kitchen drawer… even went as far as putting a liner in as well… took a while for everything to dry and be ready to go back into the drawer and a number of things hit the garbage and pass-me-over box…

reading, watching tv, tidying, napping and cooking take up the rest of the day…

so far I am enjoying the relaxed quiet days…

motivation…

didn’t make it out to the hot tub last night, but first thing this morning I put on my water boots and trod through the snow to enjoy a great time in the tub…

  
wasn’t too chilly and the sun was shining… 

  

squirrels and blue jays were dashing about with peanuts… the hot tub is a bit overfull so the water was right up to my neck…

had a giggle as I walked back to the house…

  
was just a few weeks ago that I was sitting in this very chair having lunch and getting a bit of sun…

came in and was watching some tv… having trouble getting motivated but a conversation with my daughter helped get me off my butt and doing some organizing in the computer room and bedroom…

  
hard to tell from this picture, but I shredded bags full of paper and packed a box of goodies to give away while organizing my paper supplies… always happy when I can let go of things at the same time as I am looking at them, lol…

still have some work to do in there, lol… 

also spent some time editing jewelry and knick knacks in the bedroom… might have been wise to only focus on one room at a time…
