Productivity Day

Often when I walk, I think about things that I may write about here.  Then when I sit down to write, I forget it all.  Such is the case tonight.  There were things that I had planned out in my head that have completely poofed away.  When I left for my walk tonight it was dark.  One of the things I found with unpacking was a bright yellow fall/winter vest.  I decided that yellow was a much better color than my usual dark maroon or blue.  K agreed and then offered to light me up.  She draped little LED lights around me and off I went.  I felt all Christmas-y as I walked.  Perhaps the lights distracted me enough to forgot all the things I wanted to write.  However, there was a smile on my face for quite some time and it returns whenever I think of wearing the lights on my walk.  Other happy things: 

• The writing for NaNoWriMo today was done before breakfast.  Had I had the time, I would have written again.  Instead I was productive in other ways.
• The dishes were also done before breakfast.  I told K I would do them if she emptied the dishwasher before she went to bed last night.  There were a lot of dishes yesterday.  Then I got distracted and I cleaned the microwave and stove.  I also tried to rearrange some of the things in the kitchen.  Only the tea got moved, and then it was time to stop and have breakfast.
• I planted crocuses by yesterday's tulips.
• I went through six or seven boxes.  It was my limit of stuff in a day.  Fewer boxes would have been less overwhelming.  More importantly, there is less stuff in my life now.  😉
• Most of my wardrobe for the week is ready to go.  I'm trying to not have to think about some of the little things that take time in the morning.  
• It is my last week and I have decided to wear fun socks every day to work.
• I finally got a picture of the house from outside with the holiday lights on.
• Quiche for dinner by E!
