sounds like a good plan.
i did my outside stuff this morning. Not all the stuff on my list, but my yard is better. I planted the bushes I brought home from mil's, so they were out of the ground for only about 24 hours.
my barn is in better shape (there was a crisis with the farm sitter and it has been getting patchwork care - smelled like sour milk and rotten eggs when I got home.)
then inside and i haven't quite finished the trip laundry, but it is all washed plus stuff that was left here dirty. My kitchen is better than when I left. I baked cookies.
got groceries (dropped trash, remembered coupons, remembered plastic bag recycling, remembered to ask for paper bags) and filled my gas tank. Worked on my in box and recycled some stuff. put everything I brought back with me at least near where it belongs.
did all this while watching a friend's elementary age kids so she could go to the nicu with her older daughter to spend time with her new granddaughter. And am now cooking a fairly complicated dinner.
still need a shower. But didn't do a bad job of not over planning the day.
