I spent a good chunk of Tuesday and some of Wednesday working on my bedroom, aka, looking for my glasses. I was sure they were next to my bed; they weren't. On the other hand, the east and west sides of my bed are MUCH improved. Found my denim skirt, hooray, and my dad's little magnifying glass---very helpful for reading expiration dates on coupons. Still no glasses, though.
They didn't actually turn up until shortly after 6PM on Tuesday---to the north of my bed, which is the foot of it. NOT where I thought they were, but they're intact and I'm much relieved. I also decluttered my headboard, done a load of laundry and I've got three bags to fling in the trash tomorrow, yay me.
Have been at Mb's since this morning. Called the county and talked with the gal who left her card at my place. She seems magnanimous enough; I've got a couple weeks to get the yard whacked back, and she says if I can't get it done by then, call her back---she'll do what she can to work with me.
Mb and SO took me to lunch at Long John Silver's...mmm, so greasy but so good.
I went to Mb's by way of the recycler's and unloaded the bags from my car---25.5 pounds*, go me! At Mb's, she had a mailer with a coupon for an additional 2 cents per pound from the same recycler. On the way to LJS, we detoured back by there, I took the coupon in and got an additional 51 cents. And told the counterperson that, yes, I would definitely use any other coupons they cared to print.
There was more, but I can't think of it here at the keyboard. And LJ is trying to make me crazy---this too shall pass....
