I have a busy day and week or 2 ahead. 3 tons of pellets arrive today and I am helping unload. Back breaking work. We also bought a 750k collection of magic cards that need unloading (2.5 tons) and I need to also go spelunking at the warehouse for my fabrics and pray they are intact after 4 years of storage. :(
Also have 3 yr review for DS special Ed qualifications, Open house at the vocational school and student led conferences this week and next. Plus Dr appts and the 80th Bday party upcoming. Busy is my life it seems.
I am off and running on this monday morning. Dunkin Coffee is my treat for all the hard work forthcoming!
Interesting statistics for a Monday! Hope you all have a great one.

Half way done with the house cleaning and misc other things I have been doing. DD is almost to the halfway point on the shop deep cleaning as it has been so sorely neglected during the reno. DS is helping swiffer in the house while I sweep and mop. He is 12 and it takes a lot of direction to keep him doing it the right way.
I will be helping DD after the house is finished and perhaps I have an hour remaining in there. We shall see.
Now DH is telling me that he wants me working at the warehouse on Ebay and other things in the mornings before I open the shop. How the heck and I supposed to get a workout in if I am spending all my mornings at the warehouse? the hours at the fitness center are limited 6 am- 7 pm m-f and 8-noon sat. I like to work out in the mornings because by evening I could care about moving most days. ESP if I have been in the cold at the hall half the day and we are open noon -7 pm. SMH I swear I cannot win.
*grumbles and grouses*

OMW The reno is 99% done. Everything left is little stuff: one side project making of the tilt out trash can out of reclaimed floorboards from the reno, sewing of valences for the kitchen, painting the door to the shop (forgot to final coat it when painting the trim in the hall - blonde moment), painting of the pipes that attach to the the radiators and attaching escutcheons to them to cover the holes in the floor. Then we are done done. Finito finished. Then we can pack away the rest of the tools and resources. YAY!
So, I will work on some of these small things today and when DD gets home we are starting on the shop cleaning!
This is a very good thing for my weight loss plan because by Monday I want to be able to join the gym.
So true this week hitting a few good things like the highlight of reaching 60# loss and end of the reno makes this little motivational quote more of a FACT for me:

WOOT! 60# loss marker and that is 24.18% of body mass lost... wish I could say it was all fat but my belly would say I was lying. LOL THose last 5 lbs took a month+ to lose. I need to get active again not just a little active which is what I have been doing. I hate excuses, I know pain management has been an issue but I am not using it as an excuse - it was laziness and me prioritizing other things but it is not an excuse it is what it is and that is life.
Moving on - had a adventurous evening with my daughter. She is in chemistry and we had to figure something out for Mole Day. Celebrated annually on October 23, Mole Day commemorates Avogadro's Number (6.02 x 10^23), which is a basic measuring unit in chemistry. Well seeing she only has Chem every other day because of her schedule with the Vocational school Today is her day in class and the teacher challenged them to celebrate and bring something in Mole themed. So, she wanted to make cookies that were mole shaped and well I had no cookie cutters or the ingredients on hand to make exactly what she envisioned. So I suggested a Mole sauce. Well not exactly easy to transport or did she think the kids would probably eat it. So we made Holy Mole Cookies. And transmuted a recipe I have for Chocolate peanut butter chip cookies, which is a chewy chocolate based cookie, then added the ingredients of a traditional mole sauce. We used cayenne pepper, instant coffee, cinnamon and chunked up semi-sweet baking chocolate. They made a nice spicy cookie. So then she had to convert all the measurements to moles. LOL It should be in interesting day in Chem class.
I did not get finished painting as DH came home early again but we did get the 3rd of 4 side projects completed so only one more of those remaining and today it is raining so I will get the painting done. I know rainy days are not the best to paint in and it is going to mess with the lighting as all the lighting has been taken down for the time being. Oh well. I will muddle through only a few hours of stuff left to do in there an will use the AM light as it is generally the best in that area.
