Had to laugh at your daughter's idea on how to keep you amused in your later years. <br />So glad you had such a nice visit and she got a taste of sweater weather after triple digits. Those temps sound divine.

For years I typed a daily to-do list for my loose-leaf Daytimer. Early this year I tried to get into the new fancy schmancy artsy-fartsy organizer movement, but realized I liked minimalism better because I have no artist ability. I'm currently using the Staples ARC system, with a little wasabi tape, and loving it.Kailanihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08343660755285100296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6185056688439833438.post-4304795785663709642016-08-10T20:42:45.181-07:002016-08-10T20:42:45.181-07:00I once worked for a professor who insisted on a cl...I once worked for a professor who insisted on a clean desk.

When Mom still was alive, it was different, just because I had to keep up with appointments, medical bills, medications, and such. Still, I've always kept things in manila envelopes with the contents written on the outside. It works.<br /><br />What is getting to me at this point is organizing my bookmarks and photos on this computer. I've just about finished culling bookmarks, and the next step is the photos. I want to move everything into Lightroom, but there's no use moving photos I don't want. So: cull first, then move. It's the same rule I always used for moving a household.shoreacreshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16284698314697628805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6185056688439833438.post-38577221962892895262016-08-10T17:20:08.733-07:002016-08-10T17:20:08.733-07:00All we can do is try to keep ourselves healthy and...All we can do is try to keep ourselves healthy and hope for the best.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11586429675286969340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6185056688439833438.post-71379525437870971272016-08-10T17:11:28.911-07:002016-08-10T17:11:28.911-07:00I was guess moss baskets or blocks.

They are not standard petunias but rather 'trailing' petunias. They not only plant inside the basket but also make holes around the outside and plant there also. They are huge. They have a little tractor type machine with a water tank on it and have a long wand for watering. Petunias seem to be at their best here in August.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11586429675286969340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6185056688439833438.post-26811714919634116792016-08-10T16:13:15.968-07:002016-08-10T16:13:15.968-07:00Yes, staying organized is an ongoing thing.

Just the usual hanging file folders with tabs neatly labeled and alphabetized. I currently have a file box with receipts and warranties of anything we buy of significance, such as appliances, electronics, etc. This is definitely overdue for a cleaning out. The other day I saw a file folder for a clock radio that bit the dust long ago.<br /><br />So glad you enjoyed some quality time with your daughter. And that is great news about Bob's BP meds! It will surely help him to feel a little perkier :-)Carolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17237805282007404140noreply@blogger.com
