Mary, how lovely to have sometime at home this week, I hope that it is a refreshing time and that you achieve what you need to.

It would be wonderful to have you join us in 2024. I learn so much from other peoples to do lists, there are always areas where I can improve.

Thanks!
I like looking and printing some stuff from here: https://www.printablesandinspirations.com/spring-floral-calendar-free-printable/

This week brings us to the one month mark until Christmas day. Another week of working longer for me, I don' think there will be many more as the new admin is to start end of November.

Got the 'roster' yesterday and I will be working 3 days a week until December 20th. I am miffed as
1) no one asked if I was available, they just assumed and
2) I was hoping to have the extra days here to complete what I need to do.

Will need to get hopping if I am to get it all done which is not the relaxed lead up I was imagining.

I'm so sorry to hear this. I understand completely!

I will also join you for the accountability.

Awesome! It'll be nice to have you here too.

I'm not sure that I will get to the bedroom this week with all that is going on with Thanksgiving and Christmas prep. Keeping up the lists these last few months with all the changes is really helping me to get my act together as is extra help from the family.
