Till May Be Out

Checked my tyre - slightly down so need to get it looked at on Monday. Filled screenwash (amazed I remembered). Emptied bottom of hotbin (always hard work, rarely get to the back before the top collapses into the hole), and got the courgette bed prepped. Didn't get the greenhouse blinds done, but did top up the tom/pepper/aubergine/cucumber pots with home-made compost which will hopefully improve the commercial stuff. 

Set up the paddling pool for the dog as soon as it arrived to avoid it becoming an OAT. He loves it

Replied to a debt recovery agency email when it came in rather than leave it for 'the working week'. 
I didn't reply nicely, but I did reply!

Cleaned the downstairs loo - should have been done yesterday but Mr KK jumped into the shower and I couldn’t run the water and needed to cook instead 🤷‍♀️😉

Cleaned the glass in the big patio doors in the lounge inside and out 😊

Did all my financial updates. 

Read all the emails relating to a parish council topic and also drafted some feedback from one of the parishioners who was being passionate at me about it, ready for the AGM on Monday. 

Not bad 😊

Packed up 3 parcels and used survey stamps. 

Wrote a birthday card. 

Cleared some bits out of my wardrobe.

Feeling rather pedantic here especially as I love to hear of a parish councillor reading and acting on their emails but Parish Councils have Annual Parish Council Meetings and never AGMs. LGA 1972 - sorry off duty so not going to find my yellow book for the exact reference. 

Lazy day today but onwards and upwards tomorrow determined to get my lists under some kind of control.

Today I made good inroads into my digital photos storage project, I'm hoping to finish stage 1 - all photos in labeled folders/albums - by Friday bedtime.

I'm loving this thread and its predecessors, for the support and encouragement everyone brings, thank you.

@PennysIntoPounds congratulations on successfully dealing with the coin collection and what wonderful news that it has boosted your savings 🤗

⬆️ This is a quote from Wednesday 😏

Thursday I worked hard on Stage 1 of the project.

Friday I spent less time than I intended on the project so I didn't meet my deadline.

So far today I haven't even opened my computer so no progress 😞

Today I have:
Added salt to the dishwasher
Checked supplies of laundry detergent & soda crystals - no need to buy for the rest of the year 
Removed a cushion cover as it is on the verge of waring into holes and replaced with a cover that was in a drawer
Lastly and most importantly I had a good catch up with an old friend

That’s interesting. We seem to have both. We have an annual parish meeting which is just an open forum for the community to turn up and discuss anything they want - usually nobody does. We then have the what we describe as an AGM where we have a set agenda, review the membership of the PC (I know I haven’t described this correctly) etc. It’s quite a marathon evening - TG we don’t do this at the January meetings! 😉

We have a new clerk starting shortly who is doing the professional qualification. I suspect she will knock us into shape as the last one was very disengaged and didn’t really know what he was doing.

Got the last of the summer lily pots in the ground - that’s a job that has been looking at me for a while! 

Also, hoicked out a huuuuge dock that was just starting to flower in the sit spot bed. Not technically an OAT as I only noticed it yesterday, but it would have had catastrophic consequences if I hadn’t, so a preemptive strike! 😉
