Finally, OldMtnWoman checks in! I’ve been wondering about you and hoping all going well with ya’ll!
Hey, another daily challenge…yeah, these motivate me. As it’s late afternoon when I first found this new daily challenge, I’m not sure how much water collecting I’ll get done today; but I will make an effort to check on the condition of the water I have stored. If I find any empty bottles I’ll set them out to wash and fill tomorrow.
Report on my August decluttering effort: has gone well, though I am definitely not yet finished with every room in the house but I can see the end and I’m really, really pleased with myself. I turn 81 this month and get frustrated a bit that my strength and energy levels are not where I’d like them to be. But, I’m gradually learning to accept there are going to be limits to what I can do….anything requiring a ladder is now a definite no-no so Ive been working in every room making certain I can reach what I need. Bought one of those devices that will grab items from up high or that one may have dropped…it’s a cool thing.
I’ll be looking forward to reading how everyone approaches this month’s challenges.
