    Got my mouth worked on and I can eat again without pain! Also found an excellent dentist who believes in numbing patients thoroughly and explaining what he's doing. I'm going to be spending just under two thousand to get things fixed, and that does not count the tooth implant, but Boyfriend and I agree it's worth it.

    Am still dealing with the malaise of the gum infection but will probably feel better tomorrow.

    Today:
    Feed my people dinner, and eat a sensible portion myself.
    Set up clothing and tea and coffee for tomorrow
    Take medication on time
    Wash hair (It's down to my hips, and that takes planning)
    Figure out what I'm giving Boyfriend's Mom and Dad for meals next week.

    @tinkerbellang83 a walk in the park on a nice day sounds so much better than cleaning the basement. WTG!!

    @AlexandraFindsHerself1971 I'm so glad you're not still in pain and that your dental issues are being addressed. A good dentist is worth it ... happy you've found one.

    Monday's Goals:
    Clean the office before he gets in it for the day.
    Clean sitting and dining areas downstairs.
    Clean the downstairs half-bath.
    Clean the laundry area and hall.
    Tidy the garage and pathways to overflow pantry area and freezer. (I have a lot of packed moving boxes out there, so it's a visual mess.)
    Clean the kitchen, including Under and Behind everything, and sweep and steam-mop the hard flooring.

    Make lunch: Chicken jalapeno quesadillas.
    Make dinner: Beef Marsala, pasta, pan-seared asparagus, and garlic bread.
    Do the dishes
    Set up things for tomorrow.

    Took a ME weekend. Had intended to only do on Saturday. But, it felt so good not to do the "normal" chores, logging, computer stuff, that I extended it thru Sunday. Nice break! However, need to get back to business today. Thought I might have a gain today. So far, I've lucked out ... stayed the same as Friday. My Olive Garden dinner was Marvelous!! Split one cheesecake with Granddaughter ... Yum! Pushed my calorie limit right to the edge but managed to stay just under. Same on Sunday. Today, it's back to meal planning, drinking water, etc. Still need to mop kitchen and bathroom; that's my number 1 chore today.

    HAVE A GREAT DAY Y'ALL!! :)

    @tinkerbellang83 you mentioned listing stuff on Olio ... just curious, what is Olio? Saw you have laundry on your list today ... that's my least favorite chore; I tend to put it off as long as possible.


    @AlexandraFindsHerself1971 Looks like you have a very busy day planned. Be sure to take a few moments for yourself.

    @cesse47 : I may not get a choice. It's TOM (again?!?) and I may not be able to get everything done I have planned. But with chronic pain, I'm used to that.

    The house we thought we had didn't work out, so I'm going to look at two other houses today and see if they would suit us.

    That's in the afternoon. In the morning, I need to deal with last night's kitchen mess, because I was cramping too much to handle it yesterday, and do some cleaning and putting things right upstairs. I'm not in great shape today, and not looking forward to upstairs and downstairs and back and forth to look at houses with this sort of thing going on, but given that our house will sell fast, we need somewhere to go.

    Have a small gain today ... from my indulgent ME weekend and no exercise no doubt. That's ok ... I needed the break and will just buckle down this week to get it back off. Vacuumed the whole main floor yesterday so did not get to the mopping ... so that's my chore for today.

    HAVE A GREAT DAY Y'ALL!! :)

    @AlexandraFindsHerself1971 Looks like you have a very busy day planned. Be sure to take a few moments for yourself.

    Olio is an app for sharing unwanted food/non-food items for free to cut down on waste. (https://olioex.com/ I believe it's available in a lot of countries)

    Basically you list stuff and people request it then you can arrange collection or delivery. I just do my own personal stuff but there are also "Food Waste Heroes" who collect stuff from Supermarkets/Restaurants/etc and distribute it.

    You can share stuff that's past it's Best Before date or that's been opened, that wouldn't be accepted by the likes of Food Banks, so it cuts down on a lot of wastage.

    I don't mind doing the laundry, my most hated chores are sorting the dishes out and taking the rubbish out, but I've tasked the other half with the rubbish, as I do most of the other stuff (my choice, it causes me more stress than not, cos of my OCD to have him do other housework lol)

    I didn't get much work done today, but I looked at two houses. So that's something. (grin) And I'm going to look at two new houses tomorrow.

    Bathroom, hallway, and kitchen floors mopped yesterday. Today I start work on the dining room ... lots to do!! First cut of local asparagus is in so may go to Farmer's Market later today. They also have fresh caught fish from the Great Lakes so am thinking of picking up a Lake Trout as well.
