Holiday is Over So It's Back To The Daily Routine

Happy Tuesday Everyone! I'm enjoying my coffee on this nice sunny morning. With yesterday being a holiday I'm still thinking today is Monday instead of Tuesday. After a long weekend today life is back to the daily routine and the basic house stuff that needs to be done. I already started the laundry and unloaded the dishwasher. Now I'm going to myLot for awhile before the wash needs to be moved to the dryer. Over the weekend my daughter and I managed to fill up two nice size boxes for donation. Now we just have to find out when the next pick-up is scheduled for our area. My daughter is going to a baby shower in a few weeks so I'm crocheting a very pretty baby blanket in multi shades of purple and gray. She's going to add this to whatever else she gets as her gift. I love making baby things and don't have much opportunity anymore since all my grandkids are older now. That about sums up what's going on here today. How's your day going?

It is always nice to let go of some things through donations. I am sure that your baby blanket will turn out lovely.

A few things were hard to put in the donation box but there's no use keeping something that I won't use .

The baby blanket sounds beautiful. I love the colors. You gotta love routines. It keeps you stabilized especially when you're retired and every day is the same.

I do have my routine and the days my daughter doesn't work it gets all mixed up. Usually on those days we do stuff

@Marilynda1225 I could easily get mixed up with today because the garbage people were just here. They normally come out on Monday and Thursday. Not going to Bible study this morning doesn't help. So, I need to keep the day in focus. There will be a return to normalcy tomorrow.

They are going to LOVE a handmade baby blanket. Handmade presents just makes everything more special, in my opinion. My day went fine. Just did a few errands, and hung out with my dad a little bit. Of course, Sadie got her walk.

I hope she likes the baby blanket. I have a few from when my kids were babies that my mom made. Glad you were able to spend some time with your dad.

You're too generous to prepare a gift that you personally crocheted. I'm sure the receiver would love it. I admire you and your daughter for constantly donating things. May God bless you for this. My day has gone well. It's 11 pm and it's time to go to bed. I'll try to sleep earlier than usual.

Hope you have a good nights sleep. I love to crochet and I'm happy to make something for the baby shower. It's for someone I know very well and will appreciate the baby blanket.

I have the same problem when Monday is a holiday. It rained all the morning, I feel sleepy and lazy. No mowing today, the grass is too wet.

The baby blanket you are crocheting must be very pretty. It's very hot today. Temperature is 36C. I couldn't take a walk this morning as I got up a bit late.

I don't blame you for skipping your walk if it was too hot.

Well sort of good because they are lying the fiber optic cable outside, and they cut and trimmed my yard facing the street...yay something I don't have to do, or hire someone for, but bad in that my Chromebook is jumping all around on the Prolific site, and is causing a big headache. I cleaned the cache and cookies, but hasn't made a difference. I will have to put another computer into action.

I had a bit of a problem figuring out what day it was this morning too. The blanket you are crocheting sounds very pretty indeed.

What ply are you using for the baby blanket? I'm just curious. Thicker ply crochets up faster but sometimes it's nice to do one in a finer ply.

The baby blanket sounds lovely. I need to start working on donating items again. We have SO MUCH we could get rid of. I'm just working on MyLotting.
