What I Got Done Saturday

I had plans of getting a lot of things done in the house today. It was supposed to be a rainly day and this was the perfect plan for the day. However, I didn't get much done. Surprised? Nah!! I got all the animal chores done outside first thing this morning. It started drizzling before I was finished but all the animals were fed and watered. I also gathered eggs from the chicken coop without any incidents or accidents! Next I watered all the veggie plants sprouting, re-potted some hyacinths I had gotten a couple of months ago that were bound in the container. There were 3 plants/bulbs that had no room to grow. Each one has their own pot now. I came inside and made brunch for the hubby. He slept late. He first enjoyed a cup of coffee and I did the same before starting to cook. I made grits, fried eggs and sausage. After that I went back outside because it wasn't raining or sprinkling anymore. I decided to plant some more seed. So that amounted to 18 more bell peppers, 6 banana peppers, and I forgot how many green beans. Then I came back inside to check the live stats for the NCAA Gymnastics Championship and follow along on my computer. I did run out to my car and get an armful of clothes my daughter sent last week for the flea market. I thought we had one batch all tagged when I went to the flea market on Friday but discovered only one item tagged!! We did make price tags for two big stacks so that will be easy using the tagging gun to attached the labels. Then I have a box of clothes that will need tags to be written out. Grr. I had planned on tagging some things for the antique store tonight, but that didn't happen. I did manage to do some reading here on myLot and catch up on notifications. I can do that tomorrow!

We don't realize how hard that is until after we have been into the job for about an hour and then we wonder if we will finish! I hope you are not too sore tomorrow! Or today by now...

@kareng I know that's right, it's sure not for every 1 that don't like hard work, I was a little sore from it after not doing it for a yr, but I managed through it, I'm just getting up from a 5 hr late nap.

I saw a news clip today of the LSU coach who stated that he once told Olivia Dunn when she was having a bad day in the gym, "Now tell me how I am supposed to handle this when you make 3 times more than I do?" I am still giggling over that one! She is the gymnast with all the NIL deals and has made over a million $$ while in college.

@AmbiePam Yes, she is very talented! And smart too to rack up all those NIL deals! She actually started a foundation at LSU to help other female athletes to also get deals. Did you know she doesn't even go to classes anymore or didn't this past year? Because of all the attention and creepers? She did all of her classes online.

@kareng Oh I remember her! She’s also the one the guys creep on. I think she’s incredibly talented.

You sure got a lot done. I wish we could have a garden here. We live in an apartment and Housing won't let us do much in the backyard. I will plant a couple of things in planters. Had a nice Saturday. Enjoy!

Tagging clothes and items must be a boring process. I already did a load of laundry this morning, more to follow during the day.

I used to do it while watching television, but that is out right now. I do have to get back on cleaning the path to get this old one out of here so we can go buy a new one. I did miss the gymnastics championship but was okay with viewing live statistics online.

You had a busy day. My husband's cousin came over to pick up the check for the rehab facility. She will drop it off for me on Monday. She stayed for a couple hours and never stopped talking. It's amazing. Have a good day.

It may not have been a lot, but it feels like you made a dent in things.

I try, but always have more planned than I can actually do. But I did have some down time and played some games on my phone.

We went to visit my sister so that was enjoyable. She lives about an hour away.
