Here's the update on my June To-Do List. I post a To-Do list on the side bar of my blog's homepage every month.
Let's see how ol' Sluggy did this month on her list, shall we? ;-)
* Pay Bills DONE
Everything got paid and on time, as per usual.

* Bike Something DONE
Well it was something. The bike finally got set-up on June 30th and I think I biked 1 mile total for the month. lolz I need to get use to this bike AND get my knees use to using it again as it's been 2 months. bleck.

* Declutter DONE
I used June and having Daughter and the BF here with all their stuff as an excuse to to pitch more of my own things. Decluttering will continue into the near future as well.

* 1 Load to Salvation Army DONE
Hubs and I took 1 car load to Sallie's. Some was Daughter's stuff too.
Plus all that large furniture type stuff Sallie's was suppose to pick-up, we otherwise got rid of in town by giving it away to those who wanted/needed it.

* Read 1 Book DONE
I didn't finish the book yet as I only read at night before bed and it's a thick book. I am more than halfway done with it so will have to find another one to read by next month.

* Plant Something DONE
We finally got a dozen tomato plants and 2 zucchini plants mid June into the ground. That's the extent of our garden for this season. I just put in stuff that the chipmunks and rabbits will leave alone as we couldn't come up with a way to keep them out of this area without going to Herculean efforts and spending a large sum of cash.
This is how the plants are doing as of June 30th.....still smallish but looking healthy and they all have blooms on them already. Perhaps we will get some veggies from them eventually.

* 1 Doc Appointment DONE
Had my every 3 year pap smear done in June. All my lady parts are well and in good working order. Yes, I felt you needed that critical update. lolz

* Vacuum and Shampoo Bedroom Carpet DONE
Cobwebs also cleaned up, room cleared out and a/c unit put into window. The room was ready with days to spare.
* Clean Ceiling Fans in Bedrooms DONE
With assistance from College Boy we got this done. He is taller......

* Put Shelving in Bathroom DONE
Got the shelving moved to the bathroom, scrubbed down and vinyl liner sheets put into it. It is now filled up to the brim with their personal care products so it's not all just piled under the sink cabinet in the dark.
* Buy/Replace Ceiling Fan/Light in Kitchen PARTIALLY DONE
It has been purchased but is still in a box sitting in the kitchen waiting for the weekend when the menfolk will be here and available to install it. It will be so nice to again have lights over the kitchen table. 8-)
It has been soooo long!

* Clean and Seal Deck DONE
It finally got done the weekend before July 4th! rah!!! Though I didn't personally do this chore I did have a large hand in the nagging/pleading/begging for it to be done.

* Clean Out Shed FAIL
I DID drag out two old bicycles to give away and a bike helmet to toss while Hubs was at work but the bulk of the shed still needs cleaning/clearing out. The shed is Hubs "kingdom" and I dare not go there, so I am left with begging/pleading/nagging about it. Besides just finally getting it cleared out of all the junk in there we need a place to put a large car jack and other car type items the BF brought with him so we aren't tripping over them in the garage. If for no other reason, making space for BF's "manly" stuff is a reason to tackle this job.
I don't know.....if Hubs isn't careful Daughter and I might just decide to get in the shed and "have at it" one of these days.......
So there you have it an almost perfectly completed June To-Do list. But then again, it wasn't very extensive or strenuous, was it?
And I had help with some of the items on it.
I think the fact that I stayed sane in June and am not a stark raving lunatic at this point indicates I survived June well and am doing AOK.
On ward and upward to July!
How did you do with your To-Do list for June?

My to-do list consisted of studying 8000 spelling words, but I studied none!
ReplyDeleteYou are my hero and I really need one right now.
ReplyDeleteNice cabinet! Too bad we're not local...
ReplyDeleteAnd good job on the deck resealing! We need to do that too.
I need to set down some goals and really get something accomplished. I sort of mucked around in June, though we did manage to put something in savings, my home organization sucked.
ReplyDeleteYou get bonus points for the month for housing additional adults! My June to-do's kind of got lost in the Son3 and guests visits. Hope springs eternal for July even though I will be gone 10 days of it.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you have accomplished A lot ! We got two decks restrained as well as porch posts painted. Cost was $140 with supplies. AC in window though not used. That's about it here in CT
ReplyDeleteBe proud of your accomplishments.
ReplyDeleteYou got a lot done in June! WTG!
ReplyDeleteWe did clean our ceiling fans in June. My daughter picked up a tip fro Pinterest. We used pillow cases. We bought them cheap at the Samartain Center.
We filled up a bucket of hot soap water and slid each one onto a blade and wiped it clean. We went over it again with the outside of the pillow case, but it really helped to keep the floor under the fan clean. No vacuuming afterwards required.
Glad to have that job done! :)
You got a lot done. I feel as if we got a lot done too which is unusual. Since we had the 4th party, Den and DJ had to kick it in to high gear so they helped a lot.
ReplyDeleteOn the money front, it was a failure. I guess I am just going to have to accept that some months are more expensive than others and let it go.
