I'm Not Doing Too Much Today

I've already cleaned the house, taken out the garbage, changed the lightbulb in my office, straightened up the office and cleaned the bathroom. And for good measure, I made guacamole to go with my eggs and potatoes for breakfast, which I'll make after the inspection. Yes, that's what all that cleaning was about. The complex is a government-funded site, so they have mandatory inspections once a year for the apartments. For me, it coincides with my yearly housing inspection, which will be later this month. However, now that that's finished, my back is telling me, I've done enough for the day, and I'm going to give it a rest and work here and visit you today. I'll also have the next post for the 31 Day Writing Tips. Someone here wants me to go to day 100. I doubt I have that many ideas to share on writing, but you never know. We'll see what happens beyond day 31. For now, and at least the next half hour, I will be here. The lady from the office will be here at 10. Then I'll make breakfast. Oh, forgot to mention, I also went swimming, so I've had my exercise this morning when you add in the chores.

I don't have Epsom salts but even so, I wouldn't be able to lie down in the tub. I would never get up. I'll use the massage pad on my recliner, or the whirlpool/hot tub tomorrow morning when I swim again.

@crazyhorseladycx I'm doing well this morning so the barometric pressure must be under 30. I'll be in the hot tub in about an hour as I will be leaving for the pool soon and always swim for about 45 minutes before I enjoy the hot tub for the last 15 minutes.

we use to have yearly inspections too, but for the last few years, they haven't been around.. but then we've also gone through like 10 managers in like 5 years. LOL. here, they also do random inspections, so you have the ones where every apartment gets checked, and then the random one when they just show up to a certain amount of apartments and check them. you sure did a lot of cleaning though. i'm sure they were happy with your place.

I'm surprised they're so lax with inspections. We have random ones too. We had one not too long ago. She was happy with it.

You've already been busy. I have as well, I'm doing laundry and digging a hole for the Afghan pine I bought and then I'll follow the fence line to collect the garbage the winds blew in. Then I'm going to sit and watch for that hummingbird that likes my hollyhocks, I would love to snap a shot of her.

I'm always busy doing something. Not usually chores though. I do keep the place tidy, but when I need to clean, it doesn't take much time and I feel like I've accomplished a lot.

Valerie sounds like you did many things as to say that you were not doing much today. Household chores, cooking, and swimming sounds like a lot to me! haha

My friend lives in a housing complex similar to yours. They do inspections but they are very lax with them.
