Day 2 of Taking back my apartment

The day started well. I got up when Marco did. Got dressed right away including putting on my support hose. I hate those things but it's not summer anymore so I don't have an excuse for not wearing them. This much is a big change for me. Normally, I get up after Marco leaves. I prefer to hang out in my pajamas until it's time to take Ginger out. This is a big part of the problem. Sometimes, it's nearly 12 before I finally get dressed and take her out.

I'm taking a little break right now to write this blog entry even though I won't publish it until tonight. It's 11AM and I've actually gotten a lot done even if you can't see it.

1. Up and dressed at 7AM.

2. Made my bed (just neatly pulled the covers up)

3. Load of clothes in the dryer folded and put on the bed (I'll put them away later).

4. Part of the load needed to be fluffed up a bit, so back in dryer for 30 min.

5. Load of clothes in the washing machine.

6. Transferred some of old paper to another bag so I could carry it downstairs when I take a Ginger out.

7. Took Ginger out.

8. Folded clothes that were fluffed in the dryer.

9. Put washed clothes into the dryer.

10. Drank a cup of coffee while looking at Facebook.

11. Wrote draft of today's blog post. Will finish it and publish it tonight.

12. Took some before pictures of my main trouble areas.

I really feel good about what I've accomplished so far today.

Now, I'm going to iron a few shirts. I detest ironing but unfortunately, it must be done and that's one of the hotspots in my sewing/craft room that needs to be eliminated.
