Monday morning dawned early and bright. I woke in a very good mood since I had planned out the systematic attack of all my duties for the day!
I walked the dogs, put out the bird feeders and then made my banana pancake. Have I mentioned my banana pancake? It’s so good and made with one mashed up banana, a little vanilla, 1/4 cup of egg whites and a teaspoon of Splenda. I mixed it all together and poured it into a preheated frying pan, that’s been sprayed with non-stick spray. OMG! So good!
After that, I pulled my two-tone hair into a little pony-tale and then put a kerchief on my head.
I packed up the car with the week’s recyclables and put on my country version of a Hazmat Suit, and off I went to get everything accomplished.
The Recycling Center was nearly deserted, so I breezed through and got it all deposited in the proper areas.
I came back to the car, removing my gloves and placing them in my trash bag. I then used hand sanitizer and drove the few miles to my local grocery store, where I carefully went through the shop, buying all we would need for the next 10 days. It was not cheap, but I try hard to plan everything out so I do not need to go out during the week.
As soon as I left the store I took off my gloves, deposited them in the trash, and used my hand sanitizer. (I left my mask on the entire time)
I drove to the Post Office and picked up a week’s worth of mail. Once again I removed my gloves as I have been shown and deposited them in the trash. I then got out my Clorox wipes and wiped off the door handle, steering wheel, my hands, and the keys.
Coming home, I did my usual removal of clothes in the basement and showering before moving the food in and taking care to make sure it was properly handled
And I looked at the clock and it was 12:15 and I had managed to get it all done early! And I was exhausted! However, I felt pretty good about having accomplished so much, safely, in such a short time.
It brightened my spirits because I have started to feel like we will actually make it through this very scary time.
I’ve also learned that I am one tough cookie who can handle just about anything, and find my way through.
Good job Maribeth that’s how it’s done!! We never know how strong we are till we’re tested!! ❤️❤️
Good job.
Today Gov. Cuomo said our hospitals can start to do elective procedures again if they have the capacity. I think that means we are over the worst of it.
It is so good when you have a high achieving day like that.
