Do you have "OFF" Days?

I think that is the best way to describe how today went for me. I didn't seem to accomplish much at all. Oh I did all of the normal and routine things, but did not get any "extras" done except for paying Google for excess storage in my gmail account. But that is another story for another post!
All of the animals were taken care of today and the plants all got watered. It is still dry here and we are now officially under a burn ban which started on Monday. I burned after pet chores and did not know about the burn ban until later that night. What was odd was that the county had put the burn ban on, but it was not showing up on the official Mississippi state burn ban page by county.
I didn't get any tagging done today, but did get a new lot of men's t-shirts hung up and ready to be tagged tomorrow. I have some Christmas decorations out to tag, a portable heather, a drill, a saw and who knows what else. Oh yeah--all of the clothes the oldest daughter sent home with me from babysitting that week! Two whole boxes full!
I did get one load of laundry done today. And this just reminded me that this load is still hanging out on the line outside to dry. Guess I will get them in tomorrow morning when they dry again. Ha!
I will try to get a few things posted to Ebay and PoshMark, but I feel an early bedtime coming on! I think I will have a little pre-bedtime snack. That may help me feel better! Think so?

The older I get, the more off days I have.

Just now
I have those kinds of days more and more often lately. I blame it all on getting older and not having as much energy as I used to.
Hope your pre-bedtime snack helped and you got a good nights sleep.

Sounds like a normal day to me, the animals and plants got taken care of and that counts for a lot. Don't stress about the burn ban thing, it's weird the county and state pages didn't match. Go ahead and have that snack, and the laundry will still be there in the morning.

You always seem to get a lot accomplished. I know how hard it can be, sometimes I feel like I move backwards instead of forward!








. You did get a few things done.
