Good morning!  

I had some caffeine yesterday afternoon, and I was wide awake very late last night. Also, I couldn't sleep late. 

Since I was awake late, I finished all my to-do lists for summer. I didn't do the meal plan because I didn't want to  be in the kitchen making noise. 

  • breakfast (dh going out to get us something)
  • coffee
  • devotion
  • laundry
  • meal plan and grocery list
  • shower and get dressed to go out
  • shopping
  • lunch and dinner
  • tidy house
  • dust/floors
  • clean bathrooms
  • watch something and relax

Our town is having its summer fest today. The parade has been rerouted because of road construction so the new route is a block away and we will be able to see it from my backyard. So we may sit outside and watch that this morning.  The fireworks have moved locations and we may be able to see them from the backyard as well. My dog will not be happy and will be hiding inside. 

I was gifted some decorative garden fairy doors and figures so I need to find a spot on one of my trees to put them.

laundry

harvest lettuces from garden for dinner salads

organize back closet- fill more boxes for donations

clean bathrooms

Good morning!  On the list today:

  • violin
  • wash sheets (ds had a bloody nose last night)
  • clean his mattress (same reason)
  • mow the lawn
  • dishes
  • sweep the paths
  • laundry
  • banking
  • make dinner

I don't need to make lunch; dh was kind enough to do that at 5am while he was making his own to take to work.  I should make a cake or pie for after dinner tonight, if ds hasn't eaten all the berries and cream.  We tend to be homebodies on the weekends in the summer since we live in a high tourist location and don't want to deal with the traffic, so I'm definitely not going off anywhere today.  It should be a pretty relaxing day.

Sounds like everyone has a good  Saturday lined up. I love ordinary Saturdays with routine things. 

I slept in, had a nice b’fast, made the bed, fed the dog, sewed a button on a pair of shorts for Ds, and packed a lunch for him.

Pausing now to regroup and think. This is the first not-crazy-busy day I have had in weeks. 
 

Things that must be done: 
(I need to make sure they happen, but not necessarily do them all.) 

general pick-up and tidying ✔️ 
vacuum ✔️ 
bathrooms cleaned ✔️ 
YNAB
grocery ✔️ 
electronic chores 
return library books ✔️ 

Go to a meeting in the early afternoon. ✔️ 

We are going to friends’ home for dinner, so I need to prep a green salad and some fruit to take.
