Clever title here

It's Saturday and I'm trying to get some stuff done. The patio is on my mind but I really want to get more of the house clean today. I got up early and went to the post office to pick up a package but when I got there I found out they don't open until 8:30 not 7 am as I had thought. So I went to Home Depot and got stuff to work on the patio (which I think will be officially next weekend). I got a push broom, bucket, scrub brush and some stuff to clean the patio before I paint or stain it. Then I went back to the post office and dropped by the grocery store to get milk and a couple of other things.

Wednesday night was project night with Cat. I worked on my embroidery which I would like to be moving forward on a bit more quickly. More importantly we talked about eating more healthy. Cat's been making up food packets for herself and that is working for her. I need to do the same or something similar. I need to plan what I'm going to eat and not just eat willy nilly when the hunger (or boredom) strikes. I now have several baggies with radishes in them instead of chips.

The home plan for now is to do my cleaning list and to pay bills. Maybe 1-2 loads of laundry later.
