Till May Be Out

Today, I completed stage 1 of the digital photos storage project plus 12% of stage 2. Also the shower trap was cleared and the bath was dusted.

Went to the tyre place and got my tyres checked after the warning light came on last week. They're fine, but I'll go back next week so they can check again. 

Gardener is here unexpectedly (we have a lot to do so I have first refusal on all his cancellations) so gutters have been cleared (lots of moss in them from when the solar panels were installed), and deer fencing is being put up to protect the new hedge at the front.

I have ordered mulch, compost, and tomato food.

Just joined MSE forums after a few years break after seeing this thread on facebook and wanted to join.

Sooo much to do - my first OAT is to make a list of all my OATs - split into business, home and personal.

welcome @Thebrummie5 - this is such a motivational place to help us get stuff done.
a list of tasks is a great place to start.  

I'm just back from holiday and I'm writing a list of things to do.  I'm feeling full of energy so it will be a long/comprehensive list 🙀

I am just getting back from a weekend away and am making a list of tasks that need doing sitting on the train.🙂

Great task doing and listing all, and welcome @Thebrummie5

I am fairly knackered and overwhelmed at the moment but am making sure to re-allocate not done tasks in the diary at the end of every day, I find it a good way of seeing if there are little ones that could just as easily be done as written down again, and it's good for morale to open the diary in the morning and not see the previous days tasks still there

Not really an OAT but a good to get done task - I washed the sofa blankets which have dried in the sunshine and also washed all the cushion covers which are now Spring fresh.  Of course, the cat is very pleased to snuggle up on the newly washed blankets!

tomorrow I need to attend to a very annoying formal legal document.  The paperwork really is a disproportionate response to a fairly insignificant issue.  PIP - I can only begin to imagine the fiddle faddling that you are going through with your planning consents.

I also need to renew my dad's postal vote arrangements.  I don't know how they expect a 97 year old to fill in an online form and upload his signature?  His company pension is now entirely managed online too.

Upload his signature.  The world has gone mad.

Got ahead of a job by reacting as soon as it came in this evening: I had a pack of plug plant lobelias turn up. Gave them a good watering and then potted them up into small pots that will still malleable around my begonias etc in my summer pots 😊👏
