For the first time in a long time I can say that I am writing this from my table at home without being rushed.
My husband and I got up around 5 this morning, we had coffee and actually spent a little time together. We fed the boys on the porch and just kind of enjoyed the morning. He's off to work and his first job is in Nashville. I don't mind too much as he went to the yard and took a work truck from there.
I got to relax a little longer but not too much.
I got the dishes done in the sink, started the dishwasher. Wiped down the coffee counter, there seems to have been a small build up of sugar on it.
Got my backpack cleaned out a bit and started for tomorrow. It's an EMS day so it's going to be a long one.
Cleaned up more of my shop stuff. The Herbalife tea stock is restocked and more organized than it was. It's not as big of a hit as I thought it would be but I do ok.
The resin stock is put back away and I left a few things out to finish the skull that's currently on my mat.
I have a wreath supply rolling cart now. It's a little tight in there but it works.
Lip gloss and lip balm have a drawer. Freshies have a drawer. I replaced the broke down three drawer cart and got that reorganized yesterday.
Today I have computer work to do. I'm doing awesome with it so I'm trying to keep it up.
There's also the yard sale stuff that I need to clean up and organize. That's not so bad, I just have a crap ton of books. I sell a lot of those on Mercari though. I just need them to move them out faster lol.
I am still reading Hidden Nature by Nora Roberts. I'm pretty sure that I'll get some time tonight. I need to get the reviews finished for Carrie Ann Ryan as well. I should be able to get that done today. it's a goal.
I need to do a lot of paperwork.
I need to get receipts printed to put in my business folder. I'm trying to keep better track of that stuff.
I'm also trying to make a spreadsheet of what I have sold to see if I'm making what I need to make when I buy the product and the design.
I have more notes to take from the Educator book. I may be able to get a chapter done today.
With no answer from our lead events person on our department, I'll be taking the few ideas that were given to me and try to adapt them and then present them. It should be easy. Notice I said should be not that it will be lol.
There's still a dew things to polish up on the changes that I'm trying to make to Safety Officer as well as the R&R and Events positions.
I'll get there and I'm almost finished.
I'm waiting for EMR to start and I'll be helping my friend Kristie teach that. There's two CPR classes we're trying to get, we're going to see if Rescue needs one and if we can split that up. If we can there's my two classes and my instructor will be completed.
Once I save up the money I'll be doing my caregiver certification as to make what I'm doing currently with Chris more official. Just a safety technicality.
All in all I may have a busy day in front of me but I'm pretty happy with it. Most things are almost finished or something simple that I can just take my time to do.
What is everyone else up to today?

If you can get it done on your own or know someone, I found that's usually the better option. I'm about to ask a friend to help with some yard work.

You have a lot on your plate. I've just been spending a lot of time here today.

Hopefully I'll knock a few things off soon. We'll see. I really just want some time to work on my books but I don't see that happening right now.
