We finally completed all of the paperwork for our wills, guardianship & family trust! I signed up for our legal plan at work, and have been paying a small amount each month for the coverage, so it was a must do by the end of the year. I've seen this goal carry over month over month, but it's now done! Woohoo. So happy & relieved to have this off our list. All of our involved family members know & understand our plan, and we will soon have copies of everything. So much adulting involved. :-)
It's a damp Saturday today, but I'm going to try to meet a friend for a socially distanced (masked) hike this morning for some exercise. I didn't get any yesterday, and my body doesn't like that!
Assuming I can get my chicken to thaw, I'm going to roast a chicken with potatoes & carrots, & have M sautee brussel sprouts. What else is on the list for today?

As this is my first weekend not dealing with someone moving of having a baby I am pretty lost.
ReplyDeleteSounds like you need the break!
DeleteVirtual Confetti for your will and trust and estate being all done! Tacos sound great.
ReplyDeleteI have been checking off small and satisfying things: fixed a purse, finished 1/4 of a work email, wrapped and packaged up two sets of gifts to go in the mail, wrapped a third gift that just needs JB's finishing touches to round out that family's gifts.
I'm working on a package for our latest and last for the year Lakota Families donation, and will be ordering some essentials to ship direct to them. If I can pick through baby bottles today too, I could be all set on that last package soon. Though I do wish it wouldn't require a trip to the post office. I might just fall back on the flat rate box specifically to avoid a trip to the PO.
We'll need to get groceries and stop at Target to pick up a few essentials and maybe they can even get our Christmas tree up today. I'm insisting on a very early tree this year 🙂
Ooh and we need to get a birthday card in the mail for Grandma.
Awesome work on the small wins! On the post office, can you instead print postage & then schedule a USPS automatic pickup? I do that, & it works well.
DeleteI may be putting our tree up early as well this year. Love that idea!
I do print the postage if I do flat rate, do you have a scale to do other non flat rate shipping? The weight is the part that prevents me from doing that instead of flat rate.
DeleteI am going to have to start meeting with friends in an outdoor space where we can socially distance.
ReplyDeleteIt's a great combo of social time & exercise!
