Getting it done

Hello!

It’s been a quiet day here and I don’t have much to report.  I spent the Saturday working around the house and doing uni work.  Nothing very exciting, I suppose, but I ticked off a lot of my to-do list and am feeling pretty accomplished!

Breakfast was a big bunch of grapes and an iced coffee that I ate/drank while settling in with my book.

Between breakfast and dinner, I:

  • finished painting the dresser and its drawers
  • reassembled the dresser, drawers and knobs, and re-filled the set with all of my clothes
  • got some exercise – a 25 minute walk
  • read two uni lectures
  • read a book
  • tidied the house
  • did two loads of laundry
  • cleaned up the backyard (it was a mess after painting), washed down the outdoor furniture
  • did the dishes
  • did a little bit of gardening
  • unpacked a box leftover from moving that I found, hiding from me in the closet
  • organised the giveaway winner to receive her prize :)
  • made healthy food for the day and a soup to last me a few days

Like I said, nothing crazy but I feel like I got lots done.

I stopped for lunch late in the afternoon and cooked up a baked potato, topped with chopped mushrooms, green onions, mushrooms and a little sour cream.

Dinner was a soup and sandwich combo of a grilled cheese and a soup I made with all the produce in the fridge that looked like it was about to go off.

That included two onions, four carrots, a head of broccoli, and a bag of mushrooms.  I added some veggie broth and about 50g of dry pasta, too, plus chilli flakes, oregano, thyme, and salt and pepper.  It was pretty good!

Now I’m taking a break from working and catching up on some blogs while enjoying this amazing Lindt hot chocolate- basically dark chocolate Lindt shavings melted into hot soy milk.

So good, and the perfect end to a busy day!
